Toggle Switch DPDT 7201T1CWZGI Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The 7201T1CWZGI is an active production toggle switch manufactured by C&K, classified as a DPDT (Double Pole Double Throw) panel mount switch rated for 5A at 120V AC and 28V DC. This switch features a non-illuminated standard round actuator with solder lug termination and IP67 ingress protection. The product is actively stocked with 800 units available and maintains ROHS3 compliance and REACH affected status. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical ratings, circuit configurations, and mechanical mounting specifications are required for design flexibility, inventory optimization, or supply chain continuity.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the 7201T1CWZGI are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical compatibility criteria. The primary substitution parameters are:

• Circuit Configuration: DPDT topology required for equivalent switching functionality
• Current and Voltage Ratings: 5A at 120V AC and 28V DC minimum specifications
• Switch Function: On-On operation for identical control behavior
• Mounting Interface: Panel mount with 11.91mm circular cutout and 15/32-32 bushing thread for direct mechanical compatibility
• Termination: Solder lug connections for PCB integration
• Actuator Type: Standard round actuator for consistent user interface
• Operating Temperature: -30°C to 85°C range for environmental compatibility

The substitute part 100DP1T8B13M1QEH from E-Switch meets all mandatory electrical and mechanical parameters, enabling direct functional replacement in panel mount applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 7201T1CWZGI and 100DP1T8B13M1QEH are active production components with ROHS3 compliance, supporting modern regulatory requirements. Selection between these parts depends on application-specific requirements:

The 7201T1CWZGI provides IP67 ingress protection and extended electrical life of 100,000 cycles, suitable for sealed enclosures and high-cycle applications. The 100DP1T8B13M1QEH offers REACH unaffected status and is available in higher inventory quantities (6,776 units), supporting rapid deployment scenarios. The actuator length difference (12.37mm versus 18.00mm) affects panel depth requirements and must be evaluated against mechanical constraints. Both parts maintain identical electrical ratings and mechanical mounting interfaces, ensuring functional interchangeability within the specified operating parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 100DP1T8B13M1QEH directly replace the 7201T1CWZGI in existing designs?

A: Direct mechanical and electrical replacement is possible. Both switches share identical panel cutout dimensions (11.91mm), bushing thread (15/32-32), current ratings (5A), voltage ratings (120V AC / 28V DC), and solder lug termination. The actuator length difference (12.37mm versus 18.00mm) must be verified against panel depth specifications.

Q: What are the key differences between these substitute parts?

A: The primary differences are actuator length (12.37mm versus 18.00mm), electrical life rating (100,000 cycles versus 40,000 cycles), ingress protection specification (IP67 versus not specified), and REACH regulatory status (affected versus unaffected). Electrical and mechanical compatibility parameters are identical.

Q: Are both parts suitable for sealed enclosure applications?

A: The 7201T1CWZGI explicitly provides IP67 ingress protection for sealed environments. The 100DP1T8B13M1QEH does not specify ingress protection rating and should be evaluated for sealed enclosure use based on application requirements.

Q: What packaging considerations apply to these parts?

A: The 7201T1CWZGI is supplied in tray packaging with 800 units in stock. The 100DP1T8B13M1QEH is supplied in bulk packaging with 6,776 units available. Packaging format may affect procurement lead times and handling requirements.

Q: Do both parts meet current regulatory compliance standards?

A: Both parts are ROHS3 compliant. The 7201T1CWZGI carries REACH affected status, while the 100DP1T8B13M1QEH is REACH unaffected. Regulatory requirements for the target application determine which compliance status is appropriate.
