PVB6 EE 300 NS LFS Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The PVB6 EE 300 NS LFS is a surface mount pushbutton switch manufactured by C&K, featuring DPDT (Double Pole Double Throw) circuitry with On-On switching function. Rated for 200mA DC at 14V, this component is designed for standard industrial and commercial applications requiring reliable momentary or maintained contact switching.

The PVB6 EE 300 NS LFS is classified as obsolete. Identifying equivalent substitute parts is essential for maintaining design continuity, ensuring supply chain reliability, and supporting long-term product serviceability when original inventory becomes unavailable.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the PVB6 EE 300 NS LFS are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical compatibility criteria. The following parameters must match or exceed the original specification:

  • Circuit Configuration: DPDT (Double Pole Double Throw)
  • Switch Function: On-On
  • Current Rating: 200mA DC minimum
  • Voltage Rating: 14V DC minimum
  • Mounting Type: Surface Mount
  • Termination Style: Gull Wing
  • Actuator Type: Plunger-based design
  • Operating Temperature Range: Must encompass -40°C to 80°C or be compatible within application limits
  • RoHS Compliance: Required for regulatory alignment

The ESB-33535A from Panasonic Electronic Components meets all critical electrical parameters and mechanical form factors required for direct substitution.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The ESB-33535A is a direct functional equivalent for the PVB6 EE 300 NS LFS. Both components share identical electrical ratings, circuit topology, and mechanical mounting characteristics. The substitute part is currently in active production status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain stability compared to the obsolete original.

Both components maintain RoHS3 compliance and carry the same ECCN classification (EAR99), supporting regulatory and export requirements without modification. The ESB-33535A is available in Tape & Reel packaging, which is standard for high-volume manufacturing and automated assembly processes.

The primary consideration is packaging format: the original part is supplied in bulk, while the substitute is provided in Tape & Reel format. This difference does not affect electrical or mechanical performance and is typical when transitioning from obsolete to active production components.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the ESB-33535A directly replace the PVB6 EE 300 NS LFS in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both components are DPDT On-On switches with identical 200mA DC / 14V ratings, surface mount gull wing termination, and plunger actuators. Electrical and mechanical compatibility is confirmed across all critical parameters.

Q: What is the difference between the actuator types listed?

A: The PVB6 EE 300 NS LFS specifies "Square, Plunger" while the ESB-33535A specifies "Plunger for Cap." Both designs use plunger-based actuation mechanisms suitable for standard pushbutton applications. The ESB-33535A includes a white actuator cap, which is a cosmetic and functional enhancement.

Q: Does the Tape & Reel packaging affect compatibility?

A: No. Tape & Reel is a standard packaging format for surface mount components and is compatible with automated pick-and-place assembly equipment. The component itself is identical; only the delivery format differs from bulk packaging.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences?

A: Both components are RoHS compliant and carry EAR99 ECCN classification. The ESB-33535A meets ROHS3 standards, which represents an updated compliance framework. No regulatory barriers exist for substitution.

Q: What is the inventory status of the substitute part?

A: The ESB-33535A is in active production with 2,178 pieces currently in stock, providing reliable supply availability. The original PVB6 EE 300 NS LFS is obsolete with limited remaining inventory.
