Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The UB215KKW016CF-3JB qualifies as a direct substitute for the UB215KKW01CF-3JB based on the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility: Both parts maintain identical SPDT circuit configuration, 5A current rating at 125V AC, and 30V DC voltage specifications. Switch function (On-Mom momentary operation) and illumination characteristics (LED, green/red, 2.1/4.6 VDC) are unchanged.

Mechanical Compatibility: Panel mount snap-in mounting type and square button actuator design are identical. Panel cutout dimensions remain 17.40mm x 17.40mm, ensuring direct mechanical fit in existing installations.

Performance Specifications: Operating temperature range (-25°C to 50°C), mechanical life (1,000,000 cycles), and electrical life (10,000 cycles) are equivalent across both parts.

Termination: Both parts use solder lug termination style, maintaining circuit connection compatibility.

The primary distinction between these parts lies in product status and packaging configuration, not in functional or electrical parameters.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The UB215KKW016CF-3JB is the direct functional equivalent of the obsolete UB215KKW01CF-3JB. Selection between these parts should be based on the following criteria:

For New Designs: The UB215KKW016CF-3JB is the appropriate choice. This part carries active product status from NKK Switches and meets RoHS3 compliance requirements, aligning with current regulatory standards for electronic component manufacturing and environmental compliance.

For Legacy System Maintenance: The UB215KKW01CF-3JB remains functionally equivalent where existing inventory is available. However, transition to the UB215KKW016CF-3JB is recommended for long-term supply chain continuity, as the original part is classified as obsolete.

Compliance Considerations: The substitute part (UB215KKW016CF-3JB) provides improved regulatory compliance through RoHS3 certification, while maintaining identical electrical and mechanical performance specifications. Both parts are REACH Unaffected and carry EAR99 ECCN classification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can UB215KKW016CF-3JB directly replace UB215KKW01CF-3JB in existing applications?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical ratings (5A/125V AC, 30V DC), SPDT circuit configuration, momentary switch function, and mechanical mounting specifications. Panel cutout dimensions are identical at 17.40mm x 17.40mm. Direct substitution is electrically and mechanically compatible.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two parts?

A: The UB215KKW016CF-3JB is the active production equivalent of the obsolete UB215KKW01CF-3JB. The substitute part includes RoHS3 compliance certification and is supplied in tray packaging, whereas the original part is non-compliant and supplied in bulk packaging.

Q: Are the illumination specifications identical?

A: Yes. Both parts feature LED illumination in green/red color options with identical nominal voltage ratings of 2.1 and 4.6 VDC.

Q: Does packaging type affect electrical or mechanical performance?

A: No. Packaging differences (bulk versus tray) do not affect component functionality, electrical characteristics, or mechanical compatibility. Packaging is a logistics consideration only.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for both parts?

A: Both parts operate across the identical temperature range of -25°C to 50°C.

Q: Are there any compliance differences I should consider?

A: The UB215KKW016CF-3JB meets RoHS3 compliance standards, while the UB215KKW01CF-3JB does not. For applications subject to RoHS requirements, the substitute part is the appropriate selection. Both parts are REACH Unaffected.
