Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the WLG2-G1LD-N is determined by the following criteria derived from the provided parameters:

• Actuator Type: Roller lever configuration
• Electrical Function: Switch operation with defined current and voltage ratings
• Mounting Configuration: Chassis mount capability
• Termination Method: Screw terminal connection
• Environmental Rating: IP67 ingress protection (dust tight, waterproof)
• Operating Temperature Range: -10°C to 80°C
• Compliance Status: RoHS compliance preferred for new designs

The WL01G2-G1LD substitute part maintains functional equivalence through matching actuator type (side rotary roller), electrical switching characteristics (SPDT circuit), and environmental protection ratings.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The WL01G2-G1LD is the primary substitute for the obsolete WLG2-G1LD-N. Selection of this substitute is justified on the following basis:

• Product Status Alignment: The substitute is active and currently manufactured, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity.
• Compliance Improvement: The WL01G2-G1LD meets RoHS compliance requirements, making it suitable for applications subject to environmental regulations and modern procurement standards.
• Regulatory Consistency: Both parts maintain identical ECCN (EAR99) and MSL (1) classifications, ensuring no change in export control or moisture handling requirements.
• Functional Compatibility: Matching roller lever actuator type and chassis mount configuration provide direct mechanical and electrical substitution capability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the WL01G2-G1LD directly replace the WLG2-G1LD-N in existing assemblies?

A: Direct mechanical and electrical substitution is possible based on matching actuator type (roller lever), mounting configuration (chassis mount), and termination style (screw terminal). Verification of circuit function (SPDT), current rating (100mA AC/DC), and voltage ratings (125V AC / 30V DC) against the original application requirements is necessary before implementation.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The WLG2-G1LD-N is obsolete and no longer manufactured. The WL01G2-G1LD provides functional equivalence with the added benefit of active production status and RoHS compliance.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between these parts?

A: The WL01G2-G1LD is RoHS compliant, whereas the WLG2-G1LD-N is RoHS non-compliant. Both parts share identical ECCN and MSL classifications. For applications subject to RoHS requirements, the substitute is the appropriate choice.

Q: What environmental protection does the substitute provide?

A: The WL01G2-G1LD provides IP67 ingress protection, rated as dust tight and waterproof. This specification is not provided for the original part.

Q: Are moisture sensitivity requirements the same?

A: Yes. Both parts are classified as MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions for storage or handling.
