YB226CWCKW01-N-S Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The YB226CWCKW01-N-S is a pushbutton switch manufactured by NKK Switches, featuring DPDT (Double Pole Double Throw) circuitry with a 3A current rating at 125V AC. This panel-mount component is designed for standard applications requiring dual-pole switching functionality with tactile feedback. The part is currently obsolete, making identification of compatible substitute components essential for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the YB226CWCKW01-N-S is limited by the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

  • Manufacturer: NKK Switches (YB2 Series)
  • Current Rating: 3A (AC/DC)
  • Voltage Rating: 125V AC / 30V DC
  • Mounting Type: Panel Mount, Front
  • Panel Cutout Diameter: 22.00mm
  • Termination Style: Solder, Quick Connect - 0.110" (2.8mm)
  • Ingress Protection: IP65
  • Operating Temperature Range: -25°C to 70°C
  • Mechanical Life: 200,000 Cycles
  • Electrical Life: 100,000 Cycles

Allowable Variation:

  • Circuit Configuration: DPDT to SPDT (reduction in pole count acceptable for applications requiring fewer switching paths)
  • Actuator Color: Silver to Brushed Chrome
  • Product Status: Obsolete to Active (Active status preferred for new procurement)

The YB216CWCPW01-N-P qualifies as a substitute with the circuit configuration difference noted above.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The YB216CWCPW01-N-P is available as an active product with ROHS3 compliance, providing supply chain continuity for the obsolete YB226CWCKW01-N-S. The primary design consideration is the circuit configuration difference: the substitute operates as SPDT (Single Pole Double Throw) rather than DPDT. This substitution is valid only for applications requiring single-pole switching functionality. Applications requiring dual-pole simultaneous switching must retain the DPDT configuration and pursue alternative sourcing strategies or design modifications.

Both parts maintain identical electrical ratings, mechanical specifications, and environmental performance parameters. Panel cutout dimensions and termination styles are identical, enabling direct mechanical and electrical integration without PCB or enclosure modifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can YB216CWCPW01-N-P directly replace YB226CWCKW01-N-S in all applications?

A: No. The substitute part operates as SPDT (single pole) versus the original DPDT (dual pole) configuration. Substitution is valid only for applications requiring single-pole switching. Verify circuit requirements before implementation.

Q: Are the panel cutout dimensions identical?

A: Yes. Both parts require a 22.00mm circular panel cutout. No enclosure modifications are necessary.

Q: What is the difference in termination compatibility?

A: Both parts use identical termination: Solder and Quick Connect - 0.110" (2.8mm). PCB footprints and connector compatibility are maintained.

Q: Does the substitute part meet current compliance requirements?

A: Yes. YB216CWCPW01-N-P is ROHS3 compliant and carries Active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and regulatory alignment.

Q: Are electrical ratings identical between the two parts?

A: Yes. Current rating (3A AC/DC), voltage ratings (125V AC / 30V DC), operating temperature range (-25°C to 70°C), and mechanical/electrical life specifications are identical.

Q: What is the actuator color difference?

A: YB226CWCKW01-N-S features a silver actuator, while YB216CWCPW01-N-P features brushed chrome. This is a cosmetic difference with no functional impact.
