UB06BKW015F-JF LED Panel Indicator Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The UB06BKW015F-JF is an active LED panel indicator manufactured by NKK Switches, designed for applications requiring a green diffused lens with 2.1V forward voltage and 25mA maximum current. This component features a rectangular panel cutout (0.88" x 0.64" / 22.35mm x 16.26mm) and solder lug termination. The part is ROHS3 compliant and carries MSL Level 1 rating. Substitute parts are identified when electrical ratings, mechanical dimensions, and termination methods remain identical across the product series.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the UB06BKW015F-JF is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical specifications: Forward voltage (2.1V) and maximum current (25mA) must match exactly. These values ensure compatible circuit operation and prevent overstress or underdrive conditions.

Optical characteristics: Lamp color (green), lens color (green), and lens transparency (diffused) must be identical to maintain consistent visual indication and light output properties.

Mechanical compatibility: Panel cutout shape (rectangle), panel cutout dimensions (0.88" x 0.64" / 22.35mm x 16.26mm), lens size (17.00mm x 12.00mm), and lens style (rectangle with flat top) must remain unchanged to ensure proper panel mounting and fit.

Termination method: Solder lug termination is required for circuit connection compatibility.

Compliance and regulatory status: RoHS3 compliance and MSL Level 1 rating must be maintained.

The substitute part UB06KW015F-JB meets all these criteria and is classified as a parametric equivalent within the NKK Switches UB series.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the UB06BKW015F-JF and UB06KW015F-JB are active products from NKK Switches with identical electrical, optical, and mechanical specifications. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL Level 1 rating, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing and distribution.

Selection between these parts may be based on inventory availability, lead time, or procurement source. The UB06BKW015F-JB currently maintains higher inventory levels (785 pcs) compared to the UB06BKW015F-JF (658 pcs), which may influence supply chain decisions.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can UB06KW015F-JB be used as a direct replacement for UB06BKW015F-JF?

A: Yes. Both parts are parametric equivalents with identical electrical ratings (2.1V, 25mA), optical properties (green diffused lens), mechanical dimensions (0.88" x 0.64" panel cutout, 17.00mm x 12.00mm lens), and termination method (solder lug). No circuit modifications are required.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts carry ROHS3 compliance and MSL Level 1 rating. Regulatory and environmental compliance status is identical.

Q: What determines substitution eligibility for NKK Switches UB series LED indicators?

A: Substitution is valid when forward voltage, maximum current, lamp color, lens color, lens transparency, panel cutout dimensions, lens size, lens style, and termination method remain unchanged. All these parameters must match exactly for electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Q: Does the difference in part numbering (BKW vs KW) indicate functional differences?

A: No functional differences exist between these parts. The parameter comparison confirms identical specifications across all electrical, optical, and mechanical attributes. Part number variations within the UB series reflect internal NKK Switches product line organization.

Q: Are there any packaging or handling differences?

A: Both parts are supplied in bulk packaging with MSL Level 1 rating, indicating unlimited shelf life under normal storage conditions. No special handling precautions beyond standard electronic component storage are required.
