WLNJ-2-TS Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The WLNJ-2-TS is an Omron Automation and Safety snap action switch with SPDT (double-break, double-make) circuit configuration, rated for 10A at 125V AC and 6A at 30V DC. This chassis-mount switch features a spring-rod actuator, screw terminal connections, and IP67 ingress protection suitable for dust-tight and waterproof applications.

The WLNJ-2-TS is classified as obsolete. Locating equivalent substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity, ensure component availability, and support ongoing production or field replacement requirements.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the WLNJ-2-TS is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Circuit configuration (SPDT DB/DM)
• Switch function (On-Momentary)
• Current and voltage ratings (10A AC / 125V AC; 6A DC / 30V DC)
• Actuator type (Spring, Rod)
• Mounting type (Chassis Mount)
• Termination style (Screw Terminal)
• Ingress protection rating (IP67)
• Operating temperature range (-10°C to 80°C)
• Operating force (150gf)
• Pretravel distance (1.575" / 40.0mm)

The WLNJ-2TS-N meets all these criteria and qualifies as a direct substitute for the obsolete WLNJ-2-TS.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The WLNJ-2TS-N is the qualified substitute for the obsolete WLNJ-2-TS. Both components are manufactured by Omron Automation and Safety and share identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters.

The WLNJ-2TS-N offers the advantage of active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and manufacturer support. The mechanical life rating of the WLNJ-2TS-N (15,000,000 cycles) exceeds that of the original part (10,000,000 cycles), providing enhanced durability in high-cycle applications.

Both parts carry identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS classifications, confirming regulatory equivalence for export and trade compliance purposes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the WLNJ-2TS-N be used as a direct replacement for the WLNJ-2-TS in existing designs?

A: Yes. The WLNJ-2TS-N meets all electrical, mechanical, and environmental specifications of the WLNJ-2-TS. No circuit modifications or mechanical redesign is required.

Q: What is the difference in packaging between these two parts?

A: The WLNJ-2-TS is supplied in standard packaging, while the WLNJ-2TS-N is supplied in bulk packaging. Both contain identical components; packaging format does not affect electrical or mechanical performance.

Q: Does the higher mechanical life rating of the WLNJ-2TS-N affect compatibility?

A: No. The increased mechanical life (15,000,000 cycles versus 10,000,000 cycles) represents an improvement and does not introduce any compatibility issues. The part remains functionally equivalent across all operating parameters.

Q: Are there any regulatory or compliance differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts carry identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS classifications. Regulatory compliance and export restrictions are equivalent.

Q: What is the availability status of each part?

A: The WLNJ-2-TS is obsolete. The WLNJ-2TS-N is active and currently in production, with 1157 units in stock.
