MS22BNG03 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MS22BNG03 is a slide switch manufactured by NKK Switches, configured as a DPDT (Double Pole Double Throw) through-hole component with a 0.4VA current rating at 28V. This switch features non-shorting contact timing (BBM), gold-plated copper contacts, and epoxy-sealed PC pin termination. The product is classified as obsolete, making identification of equivalent and substitute parts essential for ongoing system support and component procurement.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the MS22BNG03 is based on the following critical parameters that must remain consistent:

• Circuit configuration: DPDT topology
• Contact timing: Non-shorting (BBM) operation
• Current and voltage ratings: 0.4VA at 28V AC/DC
• Mounting and termination: Through-hole with PC pin termination
• Contact material and finish: Copper with gold plating
• Mechanical and electrical life specifications
• Compliance certifications: ROHS3 compliance and EAR99 classification

The MSN22BNG03, manufactured by NKK Switches, meets these substitution criteria as a functionally equivalent component within the same product family.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MSN22BNG03 is the manufacturer-recommended substitute for the obsolete MS22BNG03. Both components are manufactured by NKK Switches and share identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications, confirming regulatory alignment. The substitute part carries active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain continuity.

Selection of the MSN22BNG03 is supported by ROHS3 compliance certification for both parts and consistent export classification under EAR99. The transition from obsolete to active product status makes the MSN22BNG03 the appropriate choice for new procurement and system maintenance applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MSN22BNG03 directly replace the MS22BNG03 in existing designs?

A: The MSN22BNG03 is the manufacturer-recommended substitute and shares the same circuit configuration (DPDT), contact timing (non-shorting), and compliance certifications. Direct substitution is supported based on the provided specifications.

Q: What is the difference between the obsolete MS22BNG03 and the active MSN22BNG03?

A: The primary difference is product status. The MS22BNG03 is classified as obsolete, while the MSN22BNG03 is active. Both are NKK Switches products with ROHS3 compliance and EAR99 classification.

Q: Are there any packaging or inventory considerations?

A: Both parts are supplied in bulk packaging. The MS22BNG03 has 1,383 pieces in stock, while the MSN22BNG03 has 838 pieces available. Procurement decisions should account for current inventory levels and supply requirements.

Q: What electrical parameters must remain consistent for substitution?

A: The critical parameters are DPDT circuit configuration, 0.4VA current rating at 28V AC/DC, non-shorting contact timing, through-hole mounting with PC pin termination, and gold-plated copper contacts.

Q: Are both parts compliant with current regulatory standards?

A: Yes. Both the MS22BNG03 and MSN22BNG03 are ROHS3 compliant and classified as EAR99 for export purposes, with matching HTSUS codes of 8536.50.9050.
