SF36S000000 Toggle Switch SPDT Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SF36S000000 is an active SPDT toggle switch manufactured by APEM Inc., rated for 0.4VA at 20V AC/DC with panel mount configuration. This component is designed for applications requiring reliable on-on switching functionality with epoxy sealed terminals and a standard round actuator. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical ratings, circuit configurations, and compliance certifications are maintained across different mounting architectures or enhanced environmental specifications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SF36S000000 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Electrical Equivalence: Circuit configuration (SPDT), switch function (On-On), current rating (0.4VA AC/DC), and voltage ratings (20V AC/DC) must be identical
• Functional Equivalence: Non-illuminated actuator type with standard round configuration
• Compliance Equivalence: ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status required
• Termination Compatibility: Substitute parts may employ different termination styles (solder lug vs. PC pin) provided the electrical circuit remains unchanged
• Mounting Architecture: Substitutes may differ in mounting type (panel mount vs. through hole) when application design permits mechanical reconfiguration
• Environmental Tolerance: Operating temperature range and ingress protection specifications may exceed the main part requirements without compromising substitution validity

The identified substitute maintains all critical electrical parameters while offering alternative mounting and environmental specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the SF36S000000 and 100AWSP1T1B4M2RE maintain active product status with ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected certification. Selection between these components depends on application-specific requirements:

The SF36S000000 is appropriate for panel-mounted applications requiring solder lug termination and 100,000-cycle electrical life specification. The 100AWSP1T1B4M2RE serves applications requiring through-hole mounting, PC pin termination, extended lower operating temperature range (-30°C), and IP67 environmental protection. Both components satisfy identical electrical load requirements (0.4VA at 20V AC/DC) and circuit topology (SPDT On-On).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 100AWSP1T1B4M2RE replace the SF36S000000 in existing designs?

A: Substitution is electrically valid only if the application design accommodates through-hole mounting and PC pin termination instead of panel mount with solder lugs. The electrical circuit remains unchanged.

Q: What is the significance of the different electrical life ratings?

A: The SF36S000000 specifies 100,000 cycles while the 100AWSP1T1B4M2RE specifies 30,000 cycles. Applications requiring extended cycle life should retain the SF36S000000.

Q: Does the IP67 rating of the 100AWSP1T1B4M2RE provide additional value?

A: IP67 ingress protection is present in the 100AWSP1T1B4M2RE but not specified for the SF36S000000. Applications in moisture-prone or sealed enclosures may benefit from this specification.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Both the SF36S000000 and 100AWSP1T1B4M2RE are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected.

Q: What is the temperature operating range difference?

A: The SF36S000000 operates from -20°C to 85°C. The 100AWSP1T1B4M2RE extends the lower limit to -30°C, providing broader low-temperature capability.
