Equivalent & Substitute Parts for 7108SD9AV2LE

Part Overview

The 7108SD9AV2LE is a toggle switch SPDT (Single Pole Double Throw) manufactured by C&K, designed for through-hole mounting with right-angle vertical orientation. This component is rated for 5A at 120V AC and 28V DC, featuring epoxy sealed terminals and a standard round brass chrome-plated actuator. The part is currently classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent alternatives to maintain supply chain continuity for applications requiring this switching functionality.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The 7108SD9AV2LE can be substituted with the 7108SD9AV2RE based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence. Both components share identical specifications across all critical substitution criteria: SPDT circuit configuration, 5A current rating at 120V AC and 28V DC, through-hole right-angle vertical mounting, standard round actuator with 12.45mm length, PC pin termination, -30°C to 85°C operating temperature range, 40,000 cycle electrical life, and epoxy sealed terminals. The substitution is valid because all allowed electrical parameters (voltage, current, circuit type, switch function) and mechanical parameters (mounting orientation, actuator dimensions, termination style) are identical between the main part and substitute.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 7108SD9AV2RE is the direct equivalent substitute for the obsolete 7108SD9AV2LE. Selection of the 7108SD9AV2RE is based on product status and regulatory compliance: the substitute part is currently active in production, whereas the main part is obsolete. Additionally, the 7108SD9AV2RE achieves RoHS compliance, whereas the 7108SD9AV2LE is RoHS non-compliant. All electrical and mechanical parameters remain identical, ensuring functional equivalence in circuit applications. The 7108SD9AV2RE is available in bulk packaging with 781 pieces in current inventory.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What makes the 7108SD9AV2RE a valid substitute for the 7108SD9AV2LE?

A: Both parts are manufactured by C&K within the 7000 series and share identical electrical specifications (5A at 120V AC/28V DC), circuit configuration (SPDT), switch function (On-Mom), and mechanical parameters (through-hole right-angle vertical mounting, standard round 12.45mm actuator, PC pin termination). All critical substitution criteria are equivalent.

Q: Are there differences between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are product status and regulatory compliance. The 7108SD9AV2LE is obsolete and RoHS non-compliant, while the 7108SD9AV2RE is active and RoHS compliant. Packaging also differs: the main part uses standard packaging while the substitute uses bulk packaging.

Q: Can the 7108SD9AV2RE be used as a direct replacement in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 7108SD9AV2RE maintains identical electrical ratings, circuit topology, mounting configuration, and actuator specifications, enabling direct substitution in applications currently using the 7108SD9AV2LE.

Q: What is the significance of RoHS compliance for this substitution?

A: RoHS compliance indicates the substitute part meets restrictions on hazardous substances. The 7108SD9AV2RE's RoHS compliance status provides regulatory alignment for applications subject to RoHS requirements, whereas the obsolete 7108SD9AV2LE does not meet this standard.

Q: Are there any packaging considerations when switching to the 7108SD9AV2RE?

A: The 7108SD9AV2RE is supplied in bulk packaging, whereas the original part used standard packaging. Bulk packaging may affect order quantities and handling procedures but does not impact component functionality or electrical performance.
