Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the U11SCWAV2ME is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Circuit configuration (SPDT)
• Switch function (On-On)
• Current rating (5A AC/DC)
• Voltage ratings (120V AC, 28V DC)
• Mounting type and orientation (Panel Mount, Right Angle, Vertical)
• Panel cutout dimensions (Circular - 6.35mm Dia)
• Bushing thread specification (1/4-40)
• Termination style (PC Pin)
• Ingress protection rating (IP67)
• Operating temperature range (-30°C ~ 85°C)
• Electrical life (100,000 Cycles)

The U11SCWAV2SE meets all substitution criteria and is classified as a direct manufacturer equivalent within the C&K 7000 series.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The U11SCWAV2SE is a direct functional equivalent to the U11SCWAV2ME. Both components share identical electrical specifications, mechanical dimensions, and performance characteristics within the C&K 7000 series.

The primary distinction is product status: U11SCWAV2ME is obsolete, while U11SCWAV2SE is active and currently in production. The U11SCWAV2SE is the recommended substitute for new designs and ongoing procurement requirements.

Compliance considerations: U11SCWAV2SE carries RoHS Compliant certification and is REACH Affected, whereas U11SCWAV2ME is ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected. Both components share the same ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS classification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can U11SCWAV2SE directly replace U11SCWAV2ME in existing applications?

A: Yes. The U11SCWAV2SE is electrically and mechanically equivalent. Panel cutout dimensions, bushing thread specifications, and termination style are identical. No circuit board modifications or panel rework are required.

Q: What is the difference between ROHS3 Compliant and RoHS Compliant?

A: ROHS3 refers to the third iteration of the RoHS directive. Both designations indicate compliance with lead-free and restricted substance requirements. The difference reflects the regulatory framework version at the time of certification.

Q: Are there inventory considerations when switching from U11SCWAV2ME to U11SCWAV2SE?

A: U11SCWAV2ME is obsolete with limited remaining stock. U11SCWAV2SE is active production with current availability. For long-term supply chain planning, U11SCWAV2SE is the appropriate selection.

Q: Do the REACH status differences affect component selection?

A: REACH Affected status indicates the component is subject to REACH registration requirements. REACH Unaffected indicates exemption. Selection depends on end-use application and regional regulatory requirements. Consult compliance documentation for your specific application.

Q: Are the electrical and mechanical specifications identical between these parts?

A: Yes. Current rating (5A AC/DC), voltage ratings (120V AC, 28V DC), circuit configuration (SPDT), mounting type, panel cutout dimensions (6.35mm circular), bushing thread (1/4-40), termination style (PC Pin), ingress protection (IP67), operating temperature range (-30°C ~ 85°C), and electrical life (100,000 cycles) are identical.
