Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the C&K 7103P4D9AGE is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Circuit Configuration: Must be SPDT (Single Pole Double Throw)
• Switch Function: Must support On-Off-On operation
• Mounting Type: Must be Through Hole, Right Angle
• Termination Style: Must be PC Pin
• Operating Temperature Range: Must encompass -30°C to 85°C minimum
• Electrical Life: Must meet or exceed 40,000 cycles
• RoHS Compliance: Must maintain ROHS3 compliance status
• Actuator Material: Brass, Chrome Plated construction

The E-Switch 100SP3T2B4M6RE meets the core circuit and mounting requirements as an SPDT toggle switch with through-hole, right-angle configuration and PC pin termination. However, electrical performance parameters differ significantly and must be evaluated against specific application requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the C&K 7103P4D9AGE and E-Switch 100SP3T2B4M6RE maintain active product status and ROHS3 compliance. Selection between these components must be based on electrical performance requirements:

The C&K 7103P4D9AGE is specified for 5A at 120V AC and 28V DC operation. The E-Switch 100SP3T2B4M6RE is rated for 0.4VA at 20V AC/DC maximum. These represent fundamentally different electrical performance classes. The E-Switch component is suitable only for low-voltage, low-current applications that do not exceed 20V or 0.4VA ratings.

Mechanical compatibility considerations include actuator type and length differences. The C&K features a flat anti-rotation actuator at 8.13mm length, while the E-Switch uses a standard round actuator at 5.08mm length. Panel cutout and mounting geometry must be verified for mechanical fit.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the E-Switch 100SP3T2B4M6RE directly replace the C&K 7103P4D9AGE in all applications?

A: No. While both components share SPDT circuit configuration, through-hole right-angle mounting, and PC pin termination, the E-Switch component has significantly lower electrical ratings (0.4VA at 20V maximum versus 5A at 120V AC). Substitution is valid only for applications operating within the E-Switch electrical specifications.

Q: What are the key differences between these two toggle switches?

A: The primary differences are electrical performance (current and voltage ratings), actuator type (flat anti-rotation versus standard round), and actuator length (8.13mm versus 5.08mm). Both maintain identical operating temperature range, electrical life, and RoHS compliance status.

Q: Are there mechanical compatibility concerns when substituting these parts?

A: Yes. The actuator length difference (8.13mm versus 5.08mm) and actuator type difference (flat anti-rotation versus standard round) may affect panel cutout fit and user interface feel. Physical verification is required for mechanical compatibility.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Both components are ROHS3 compliant and maintain active product status. The C&K 7103P4D9AGE is REACH Affected, while the E-Switch 100SP3T2B4M6RE is REACH Unaffected. Compliance requirements for your specific application must be verified.

Q: What electrical applications are suitable for each component?

A: The C&K 7103P4D9AGE is suitable for applications requiring 5A switching at up to 120V AC or 28V DC. The E-Switch 100SP3T2B4M6RE is limited to low-voltage, low-current applications not exceeding 20V and 0.4VA. Application voltage and current requirements must be matched to the appropriate component rating.
