P2023Y-JB Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The P2023Y-JB is a rocker switch manufactured by NKK Switches, configured as a DPDT (Double Pole Double Throw) switch with On-Off-On functionality. It is rated for 10A AC at 125V and features panel mount installation with a flange design. The product is currently obsolete, making identification of compatible substitute components essential for system maintenance, repair, and redesign applications where this switch is specified.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the P2023Y-JB is determined by the following critical parameters that must remain compatible:

• Circuit configuration (DPDT required)
• Switch function (On-Off-On required)
• Mounting type (Panel Mount, Flange required)
• Actuator type (Concave Standard V required)
• Termination style (Solder Lug required)
• AC voltage rating (125V minimum required)
• Current rating (must meet or exceed 10A AC)
• RoHS compliance status

The SW3007A qualifies as a substitute because it maintains all mandatory mechanical and electrical interface parameters while offering enhanced electrical specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The SW3007A serves as the primary substitute for the obsolete P2023Y-JB. Both components are manufactured by NKK Switches and maintain identical mechanical interfaces and core electrical specifications for AC 125V operation.

The SW3007A provides enhanced current capacity (15A AC/DC versus 10A AC), enabling its use in applications where the original 10A rating is sufficient. Both components carry ROHS3 compliance and CSA/UL certifications, supporting regulatory requirements.

Applications operating at the upper temperature boundary (above 70°C) or requiring extended mechanical/electrical cycle life beyond 30,000/10,000 cycles respectively should evaluate the performance envelope of the SW3007A against system requirements. The substitute maintains all panel mount and solder lug termination specifications required for direct installation compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the SW3007A directly replace the P2023Y-JB in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both switches share identical DPDT On-Off-On circuit configuration, panel mount flange design, concave actuator type, white actuator color, and solder lug termination. Mechanical and electrical interfaces are compatible for direct substitution.

Q: What are the key differences between these two switches?

A: The SW3007A provides higher current capacity (15A AC/DC versus 10A AC), includes dust proof ingress protection, and operates across a reduced temperature range (-10°C to 70°C versus -10°C to 85°C). Mechanical and electrical cycle life ratings are lower on the SW3007A (30,000 and 10,000 cycles respectively versus 50,000 and 25,000 cycles).

Q: Is the SW3007A suitable for high-temperature applications?

A: The SW3007A operates to 70°C maximum. Applications requiring operation above 70°C should confirm compatibility with the reduced upper temperature limit. The original P2023Y-JB supported 85°C operation.

Q: Are both switches RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the P2023Y-JB and SW3007A are ROHS3 compliant and carry CSA and UL certifications.

Q: What is the packaging difference?

A: The P2023Y-JB was supplied in standard packaging, while the SW3007A is available in bulk packaging. This does not affect component functionality or electrical performance.

Q: Can the SW3007A handle DC voltage applications?

A: The SW3007A is rated for both AC and DC operation (15A AC/DC, 30V DC). The original P2023Y-JB was rated for AC only (10A AC, 125V AC). DC applications are supported by the substitute within its 30V DC rating.
