C&K 7201L2YCBE22 Toggle Switch DPDT Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The C&K 7201L2YCBE22 is an active production toggle switch with DPDT (Double Pole Double Throw) configuration, rated for 0.4VA at 20V AC/DC. This panel-mount switch features a standard round actuator with PC pin termination and is designed for applications requiring reliable switching in the low-voltage, low-current range. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical ratings, mechanical compatibility, and circuit configuration align with the original specification, enabling direct replacement in compatible applications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts are classified based on strict alignment with the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility Criteria:

• Circuit configuration: DPDT required
• Switch function: On-On required
• Current rating: Equal to or greater than 0.4VA
• Voltage rating: Equal to or greater than 20V AC and 20V DC

Mechanical Compatibility Criteria:

• Mounting type: Panel Mount required
• Panel cutout dimensions: Circular 6.35mm Dia required
• Bushing thread: 1/4-40 required
• Termination style: PC Pin required

Compliance Criteria:

• RoHS3 Compliant status
• Operating temperature range: -30°C ~ 85°C minimum

Substitute parts meeting all electrical, mechanical, and compliance criteria are listed below. Parts exceeding the original ratings remain compatible for direct substitution in applications where the original part is specified.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

E-Switch 100DP1T6B15M2RE is the primary substitute for the C&K 7201L2YCBE22. This part maintains identical electrical ratings (0.4VA, 20V AC/DC), mechanical compatibility (panel mount, 6.35mm cutout, 1/4-40 bushing, PC pin termination), and compliance status (ROHS3 Compliant, -30°C ~ 85°C operating range). Both parts are active production items with equivalent functional performance.

E-Switch 100DP1T1B1M2QEH is a substitute with elevated electrical ratings (5A, 120V AC, 28V DC). This part exceeds the original specification and remains compatible for direct substitution in applications where the original part is specified, provided the circuit design accommodates the higher ratings. This part is active production and ROHS3 Compliant.

TE Connectivity 2-1825138-4 (Gemini A series) is a substitute with identical electrical ratings (0.4VA, 20V AC/DC) and mechanical compatibility. This part is active production and ROHS3 Compliant. Electrical life specification (6,000 cycles) is lower than the original part (100,000 cycles); selection should account for application duty cycle requirements.

All three substitute parts are active production items with ROHS3 compliance and equivalent operating temperature ranges, supporting direct substitution in compatible applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the E-Switch 100DP1T1B1M2QEH replace the C&K 7201L2YCBE22 in all applications?

A: Yes. The E-Switch 100DP1T1B1M2QEH maintains DPDT On-On configuration, panel mount compatibility, and all mechanical specifications. Its higher electrical ratings (5A, 120V AC, 28V DC) exceed the original specification and do not prevent substitution. Circuit design must accommodate these ratings.

Q: What is the primary difference between the E-Switch 100DP1T6B15M2RE and the TE Connectivity 2-1825138-4?

A: Both parts match the original electrical and mechanical specifications. The TE Connectivity part specifies 6,000 electrical life cycles compared to 40,000 cycles for the E-Switch part. Selection depends on application duty cycle requirements.

Q: Are all substitute parts panel-mount compatible with the original 6.35mm circular cutout?

A: Yes. All substitute parts specified maintain the circular 6.35mm panel cutout dimension and 1/4-40 bushing thread, ensuring mechanical compatibility with the original mounting configuration.

Q: Do all substitute parts meet RoHS3 compliance?

A: Yes. All substitute parts listed are ROHS3 Compliant and operate within the -30°C ~ 85°C temperature range, matching the original part's compliance status.

Q: What packaging formats are available for substitute parts?

A: E-Switch parts (100DP1T6B15M2RE and 100DP1T1B1M2QEH) are supplied in Bulk packaging. TE Connectivity 2-1825138-4 is supplied in Bulk packaging. The original C&K part is supplied in Tray packaging.
