Equivalent & Substitute Parts for V-11-1C3(R)

Part Overview

The V-11-1C3(R) is a snap action SPDT switch manufactured by Omron Electronics Inc-EMC Div, rated for 11A AC at 250V with chassis mount configuration and quick connect termination. This part is classified as obsolete, making identification of suitable substitute components necessary for ongoing maintenance, repair, and new design applications where equivalent functionality is required.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the V-11-1C3(R) is constrained by the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Compatibility Parameters:

• Circuit configuration must remain SPDT
• Switch function must remain On-Momentary
• Voltage rating must support minimum 250V AC operation
• Actuator type must be round pin plunger for mechanical compatibility
• Mounting type must be chassis mount
• Termination style must be quick connect 0.250" (6.3mm)
• Ingress protection must maintain IP40 minimum

Current Rating Consideration: The V-11-1C3(R) is rated for 11A AC. Substitute parts with lower current ratings (such as 6A AC) represent a reduction in electrical capacity and are suitable only for applications where the actual load current does not exceed the substitute part's rating.

The D3V-6G-1C3-K meets all mandatory compatibility parameters but operates at a reduced current capacity of 6A AC, making it applicable only to circuits where the maximum AC current requirement does not exceed 6A.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The D3V-6G-1C3-K is the manufacturer-recommended substitute for the obsolete V-11-1C3(R). Both components are manufactured by Omron Electronics Inc-EMC Div and share identical mechanical and electrical interface specifications.

Selection Criteria:

The D3V-6G-1C3-K is suitable for direct substitution in applications where the maximum AC current requirement does not exceed 6A at 250V. The substitute part offers improved compliance status (ROHS3 vs. RoHS Compliant) and extended operating temperature range (-25°C to 105°C vs. -25°C to 80°C), making it appropriate for applications requiring broader environmental tolerance.

The substitute part's higher electrical life rating (500,000 cycles vs. 300,000 cycles) provides extended service intervals in high-cycle applications. However, the reduced mechanical life (10,000,000 cycles vs. 50,000,000 cycles) should be evaluated against application duty cycles.

For applications requiring the full 11A AC capacity of the original V-11-1C3(R), alternative substitutes with equivalent or higher current ratings must be sourced.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the D3V-6G-1C3-K directly replace the V-11-1C3(R) in all applications?

A: Direct substitution is limited by current rating. The D3V-6G-1C3-K operates at 6A AC maximum, compared to the V-11-1C3(R) at 11A AC. Substitution is valid only when the application's actual AC current demand does not exceed 6A at 250V.

Q: Are the mechanical interfaces identical between these parts?

A: Yes. Both components feature round pin plunger actuators, chassis mount configuration, and quick connect 0.250" (6.3mm) termination. Physical mounting and electrical connection are compatible.

Q: What is the difference in operating temperature range?

A: The V-11-1C3(R) operates from -25°C to 80°C. The D3V-6G-1C3-K extends this range to -25°C to 105°C, providing broader environmental tolerance for applications requiring operation at elevated temperatures.

Q: How do the electrical life ratings compare?

A: The D3V-6G-1C3-K provides 500,000 electrical cycles compared to 300,000 cycles for the V-11-1C3(R), representing a 67% increase in rated electrical life.

Q: What is the significance of the ROHS3 compliance on the D3V-6G-1C3-K?

A: ROHS3 compliance indicates adherence to the current Restriction of Hazardous Substances directive, reflecting the substitute part's active product status and current manufacturing standards. The original V-11-1C3(R) carries RoHS Compliant status consistent with its obsolete classification.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The V-11-1C3(R) is packaged in standard format. The D3V-6G-1C3-K is supplied in bulk packaging. Verify packaging requirements for your procurement and assembly processes.
