Equivalent & Substitute Parts for 7201P3YAGE

Part Overview

The 7201P3YAGE is an active production toggle switch manufactured by C&K, classified as a DPDT (Double Pole Double Throw) panel mount switch with right angle configuration. This switch is designed for applications requiring 5A at 120V AC or 28V DC operation. Finding equivalent substitute parts becomes necessary when managing inventory across multiple suppliers, accommodating regional availability constraints, or aligning with specific procurement requirements while maintaining functional compatibility.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 7201P3YAGE is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Circuit configuration: DPDT
• Switch function: On-On
• Mounting type: Panel Mount, Right Angle
• Panel cutout dimensions: Circular - 6.35mm Dia
• Bushing thread: 1/4-40
• Termination style: PC Pin
• Operating temperature range: -30°C ~ 85°C minimum

Electrical Performance Considerations: Substitute parts must support the electrical requirements of the application. The 7201P3YAGE operates at 5A (AC/DC), 120V AC, and 28V DC. Substitute parts with lower current or voltage ratings are not interchangeable for applications requiring the full rated capacity of the main part.

Compliance and Certification: Both the main part and substitute must maintain ROHS3 compliance status to ensure regulatory alignment in target markets.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 100DP1T3B1M6REH from E-Switch shares identical mechanical and mounting characteristics with the 7201P3YAGE, including panel cutout dimensions, bushing thread specification, and termination style. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and active production status.

However, the 100DP1T3B1M6REH operates at significantly reduced electrical ratings: 0.4VA at 20V AC/DC compared to the 7201P3YAGE's 5A at 120V AC or 28V DC. This electrical performance difference means the E-Switch part is suitable only for applications with lower power requirements that fall within its rated specifications.

Selection between these parts must be based on the actual electrical demands of the target application. If the application requires the full 5A capacity or 120V AC operation, the 7201P3YAGE is the appropriate choice. If the application operates at 20V or below with current draw not exceeding 0.4VA, the 100DP1T3B1M6REH may be considered as a substitute.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 100DP1T3B1M6REH replace the 7201P3YAGE in all applications?

A: No. While both switches share identical mechanical mounting and panel cutout specifications, the 100DP1T3B1M6REH has lower electrical ratings (0.4VA at 20V) compared to the 7201P3YAGE (5A at 120V AC or 28V DC). Substitution is only valid for applications operating within the lower electrical specifications.

Q: What are the critical parameters that must match for substitution?

A: Circuit configuration (DPDT), switch function (On-On), mounting type (Panel Mount, Right Angle), panel cutout dimensions (Circular - 6.35mm Dia), bushing thread (1/4-40), termination style (PC Pin), and operating temperature range (-30°C ~ 85°C) must all match between the main part and substitute.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: Yes. The 7201P3YAGE is supplied in Tray packaging, while the 100DP1T3B1M6REH is supplied in Bulk packaging. This difference affects handling and storage but does not impact functional compatibility for applications within the electrical specifications of the substitute part.

Q: Do both parts maintain the same compliance certifications?

A: Both the 7201P3YAGE and 100DP1T3B1M6REH are ROHS3 compliant and maintain active product status. Both are classified under HTSUS code 8536.50.9065 and ECCN EAR99.

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

A: The 7201P3YAGE is rated for 100,000 electrical cycles, while the 100DP1T3B1M6REH is rated for 40,000 electrical cycles. This difference should be considered for applications with high switching frequency requirements.
