MRA206-CC Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MRA206-CC is a rotary switch manufactured by NKK Switches, designed for applications requiring 2 to 6 position selection with dual-pole, six-throw (DP6T) circuit configuration. This component operates at 250mA AC current and 125V AC voltage, featuring a panel-mount through-hole installation with a knob actuator and non-shorting (BBM) contact timing. The MRA206-CC is classified as obsolete, making identification of functionally equivalent alternatives essential for ongoing system maintenance, repair, and component sourcing.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the MRA206-CC is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

  • Circuit Configuration: DP6T (Dual Pole, Six Throw) topology must be maintained
  • Current Rating: 250mA AC minimum requirement
  • Voltage Rating: 125V AC minimum requirement
  • Contact Timing: Non-Shorting (BBM) operation
  • Mounting Type: Panel Mount, Through Hole configuration
  • Termination Style: PC Pin connection
  • Panel Cutout Dimensions: Circular 6.35mm diameter
  • Depth Behind Panel: 17.00mm maximum

The MRAN206-CC qualifies as a direct substitute based on manufacturer designation and functional equivalence within the NKK Switches product family.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MRAN206-CC is designated by NKK Switches as the manufacturer-recommended substitute for the obsolete MRA206-CC. Selection of the MRAN206-CC provides the advantage of active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and manufacturer support. Both components maintain ROHS3 compliance and are manufactured by the same supplier, supporting design continuity and supply chain reliability. The transition from the MRA206-CC to the MRAN206-CC is appropriate for new designs and component replacement applications where active product status and manufacturer backing are required.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MRAN206-CC be used as a direct replacement for the MRA206-CC in existing designs?

A: The MRAN206-CC is the manufacturer-recommended substitute. Verification of electrical specifications (current rating, voltage rating, circuit configuration) against your application requirements is necessary before implementation.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The MRA206-CC is classified as obsolete. The MRAN206-CC provides an active alternative from the same manufacturer, ensuring continued component availability and support.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The MRA206-CC packaging is listed as standard, while the MRAN206-CC is supplied in bulk packaging. Confirm packaging requirements for your procurement and assembly processes.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Both components are ROHS3 compliant. Compliance certifications should be verified against your specific application and regional requirements.

Q: What parameters must remain constant for substitution?

A: Circuit configuration (DP6T), current rating (250mA AC), voltage rating (125V AC), contact timing (non-shorting), mounting type (panel mount through-hole), and termination style (PC pin) must be maintained for functional equivalence.
