Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 7108T1CWWLE is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Circuit configuration (SPDT)
• Switch function (On-Mom)
• Current and voltage ratings (5A AC/DC, 120V AC, 28V DC)
• Mounting type and mechanical interface (Panel Mount, 11.91mm circular cutout, 15/32-32 bushing thread)
• Actuator specifications (Standard Round, 12.37mm length)
• Termination style (Wire Wrap)
• Environmental protection (IP67)
• Operating temperature range (-30°C to 85°C)
• Electrical life (40,000 cycles)

The C&K 7108T1CWWRE qualifies as a direct substitute based on complete alignment with all specified electrical and mechanical parameters.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The C&K 7108T1CWWRE is a direct functional equivalent to the obsolete 7108T1CWWLE. Both components share identical electrical ratings, mechanical interfaces, and environmental specifications. The primary distinction is product status and regulatory compliance.

The 7108T1CWWRE is currently in active production status, ensuring availability for procurement and supply chain continuity. Additionally, the substitute part achieves RoHS compliance, aligning with modern regulatory requirements for electronic components in many jurisdictions. The main part's RoHS non-compliant status and obsolete classification support transition to the substitute for new designs and ongoing system support.

Both parts carry identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.50.9065) classifications, confirming equivalent trade and export status.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 7108T1CWWRE be used as a direct replacement for the 7108T1CWWLE in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. The substitute part maintains identical electrical ratings (5A, 120V AC, 28V DC), circuit configuration (SPDT), mechanical interface (11.91mm circular panel cutout, 15/32-32 bushing thread), actuator specifications (Standard Round, 12.37mm), and termination style (Wire Wrap). No circuit modifications or mechanical rework are required.

Q: What is the significance of the RoHS compliance difference?

A: The 7108T1CWWRE is RoHS compliant, meeting restrictions on hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment. The main part is RoHS non-compliant. For applications subject to RoHS regulations or customer requirements, the substitute part is the appropriate selection.

Q: Are there any differences in environmental protection or operating conditions?

A: No. Both parts provide identical IP67 ingress protection (dust tight, waterproof) and operate across the same temperature range (-30°C to 85°C). Electrical life is specified at 40,000 cycles for both components.

Q: Why is the main part classified as obsolete?

A: Obsolescence indicates the part is no longer in active production. The C&K 7108T1CWWRE, as an active production equivalent, is the recommended source for new procurement and system support.

Q: Are the wire wrap terminations compatible with existing connector interfaces?

A: Yes. Both parts use identical wire wrap termination style. Existing connector interfaces and wiring harnesses designed for the 7108T1CWWLE are compatible with the 7108T1CWWRE without modification.
