Toggle Switch DPDT 7201MYCBE2 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The C&K 7201MYCBE2 is an active production toggle switch with DPDT (Double Pole Double Throw) circuit 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 -30°C to 85°C operating range. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters are maintained across the same functional category, ensuring direct compatibility in circuit applications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 7201MYCBE2 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Circuit configuration (DPDT)
• Switch function (On-On)
• Electrical ratings (0.4VA at 20V AC/DC)
• Mounting type (Panel Mount)
• Mechanical interface (Standard round actuator, 5.08mm length, PC pin termination)
• Panel cutout dimensions (Circular 6.35mm diameter)
• Bushing thread specification (1/4-40)
• Operating temperature range (-30°C to 85°C)
• Compliance certifications (ROHS3, MSL 1)

The E-Switch 100DP1T2B3M2REH meets all substitution criteria within these parameters. Differences in electrical life cycles, actuator material finish, and terminal sealing do not affect functional compatibility in equivalent circuit applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the C&K 7201MYCBE2 and E-Switch 100DP1T2B3M2REH are active production components with ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating, confirming suitability for standard industrial and commercial applications. Selection between these parts may be based on packaging format (Tray vs. Bulk), inventory availability, or supply chain considerations, as electrical and mechanical specifications are equivalent. The E-Switch variant includes epoxy sealed terminals as a distinguishing feature; the C&K variant specifies a black actuator finish. Both maintain identical electrical performance and mechanical interface compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the E-Switch 100DP1T2B3M2REH directly replace the C&K 7201MYCBE2 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical circuit configuration (DPDT), electrical ratings (0.4VA at 20V AC/DC), mechanical interface (panel mount with 1/4-40 bushing thread), and operating temperature range (-30°C to 85°C). Panel cutout dimensions and PC pin termination are equivalent.

Q: What is the difference in electrical life between these parts?

A: The C&K 7201MYCBE2 is rated for 100,000 cycles; the E-Switch 100DP1T2B3M2REH is rated for 40,000 cycles. This difference does not affect functional compatibility but may influence component selection based on application duty cycle requirements.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these substitutes?

A: Yes. The C&K 7201MYCBE2 is supplied in Tray packaging; the E-Switch 100DP1T2B3M2REH is supplied in Bulk packaging. Packaging format does not affect electrical or mechanical performance.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Both parts are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating. The C&K part is REACH Affected; the E-Switch part is REACH Unaffected. Both carry EAR99 ECCN classification.

Q: What distinguishes the actuator materials between these parts?

A: Both parts feature brass actuators with chrome plating. The C&K variant specifies a black actuator finish; the E-Switch variant includes epoxy sealed terminals as an additional feature. These differences do not affect switching performance or mechanical compatibility.
