Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the WLHL-LD is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Circuit configuration: SPDT (DB/DM) topology
• Current ratings: 10A AC and 6A DC minimum
• Voltage ratings: 125V AC and 30V DC minimum
• Actuator type: Side rotary with adjustable rod
• Mounting configuration: Chassis mount with screw terminals
• Environmental protection: IP67 rating
• Operating temperature range: -10°C to 80°C minimum
• Electrical and mechanical life specifications: 750,000 and 15,000,000 cycles respectively

The WLCL-LD-N meets all substitution criteria as an active product within the Omron WL series family, maintaining identical electrical specifications, mechanical interface, and environmental ratings while offering improved availability and current product support.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The WLCL-LD-N is the direct functional equivalent for WLHL-LD applications. Both components maintain identical electrical performance specifications, mechanical interface geometry, and environmental protection ratings. The WLCL-LD-N offers the advantage of active product status with confirmed RoHS compliance and REACH unaffected designation, providing regulatory clarity for new designs and long-term supply chain stability. The WLCL-LD-N is suitable for direct substitution in existing WLHL-LD circuit implementations without modification to electrical or mechanical interfaces.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can WLCL-LD-N replace WLHL-LD in existing applications?

A: Yes. Both components share identical circuit configuration (SPDT DB/DM), current ratings (10A AC / 6A DC), voltage ratings (125V AC / 30V DC), actuator type (side rotary adjustable rod), mounting configuration (chassis mount with screw terminals), and environmental protection (IP67). Electrical and mechanical life specifications are equivalent.

Q: What are the differences between WLHL-LD and WLCL-LD-N?

A: The primary differences are product status and regulatory compliance. WLHL-LD is obsolete with undefined RoHS and REACH status. WLCL-LD-N is an active product with RoHS compliance and REACH unaffected designation. Operating force differs (290gf vs. 141gf) and overtravel differs (55° vs. 70°), but these do not affect substitution eligibility for standard applications.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: WLHL-LD is supplied with unspecified packaging. WLCL-LD-N is supplied in bulk packaging. Packaging format does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to the substitute part?

A: WLCL-LD-N is RoHS compliant and REACH unaffected. Both components carry ECCN EAR99 and HTSUS 8536.50.9055 classifications.
