C&K 7201MYAV2LE Toggle Switch DPDT Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The C&K 7201MYAV2LE is a panel-mount toggle switch with DPDT (Double Pole Double Throw) configuration, rated for 5A at 120V AC and 28V DC. This switch features a standard round actuator with vertical orientation and PC pin termination. The product is currently obsolete, making identification of compatible substitute parts essential for ongoing maintenance, repair, and new design implementations where this switch specification is required.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 7201MYAV2LE is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Circuit configuration (DPDT)
• Switch function (On-On)
• Current rating (5A AC/DC)
• Voltage ratings (120V AC / 28V DC)
• Mounting type (Panel Mount, Right Angle, Vertical)
• Actuator specifications (Standard Round, 5.08mm length)
• Termination style (PC Pin)
• Panel cutout dimensions (Circular - 6.35mm Dia)
• Bushing thread specification (1/4-40)
• Operating temperature range (-30°C ~ 85°C)
• Electrical life rating (100,000 Cycles)

The C&K 7201MYAV2RE qualifies as a direct substitute based on complete alignment with all electrical and mechanical parameters listed above.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The C&K 7201MYAV2RE is the appropriate substitute for the obsolete 7201MYAV2LE. Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications, ensuring direct functional compatibility in panel-mount applications requiring DPDT switching at 5A and 120V AC operation.

The 7201MYAV2RE offers the additional advantage of active product status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability. The part also achieves RoHS compliance, meeting current regulatory requirements for new equipment designs and manufacturing processes. The REACH Affected designation on the substitute part reflects current regulatory scope but does not impact electrical or mechanical performance relative to the main part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 7201MYAV2RE be used as a direct replacement for the 7201MYAV2LE in existing applications?

A: Yes. The 7201MYAV2RE provides complete electrical and mechanical equivalence. Panel cutout dimensions, bushing thread specifications, actuator geometry, and all electrical ratings are identical, enabling direct substitution without circuit or mechanical redesign.

Q: What is the significance of the product status difference between these parts?

A: The 7201MYAV2LE is obsolete, indicating discontinued manufacturing and limited availability. The 7201MYAV2RE maintains active status, ensuring reliable sourcing for current and future applications.

Q: How do RoHS compliance differences affect part selection?

A: The 7201MYAV2RE achieves RoHS compliance, meeting environmental and regulatory standards required for equipment sold in regulated markets. The 7201MYAV2LE does not meet these standards. For new designs or equipment requiring RoHS certification, the 7201MYAV2RE is the appropriate choice.

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

A: No. Both parts share identical panel mount specifications, including the 6.35mm circular cutout diameter and 1/4-40 bushing thread. Physical installation and panel integration are identical.

Q: What electrical parameters must remain constant for substitution eligibility?

A: Current rating (5A), voltage ratings (120V AC / 28V DC), circuit configuration (DPDT), and switch function (On-On) must be identical. Both parts meet these requirements.
