CM15-2259 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The CM15-2259 is a molded body reed switch manufactured by Coto Technology, configured as a SPST-NO (Single Pole Single Throw - Normally Open) device. This component is rated for 500mA switching current at 200V AC/DC with a 10VA power rating and surface mount gull wing termination. The CM15-2259 is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent components to maintain design continuity and ensure ongoing component availability for production and repair applications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The CT10-1030-G1 is identified as a substitute for the CM15-2259 based on the following substitution criteria:

Matching Parameters:

• Circuit configuration: SPST-NO
• Switching current: 500mA (AC/DC)
• Mounting type: Surface Mount
• Termination style: Gull Wing
• Operating temperature range: -40°C to 125°C
• Moisture sensitivity level: 1 (Unlimited)
• RoHS compliance status: Both compliant
• REACH status: Both unaffected

Voltage Compatibility: The CT10-1030-G1 provides 140V AC switching capability with 200V DC switching capability. The CM15-2259 operates at 200V for both AC and DC. The substitute part meets or exceeds the DC switching voltage requirement and provides adequate AC voltage capability for applications requiring 140V AC or lower.

Power Rating Consideration: The CT10-1030-G1 is rated at 10W, compared to the CM15-2259 at 10VA. Both devices support the same 500mA switching current, ensuring functional equivalence in current-limited applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The CT10-1030-G1 is an active product from Coto Technology and serves as the designated substitute for the obsolete CM15-2259. Both components maintain identical RoHS and REACH compliance status, ensuring regulatory continuity in applications subject to environmental restrictions.

Selection Criteria:

The CT10-1030-G1 is suitable for applications where the CM15-2259 was previously specified, provided the following conditions are met:

• AC switching voltage requirements do not exceed 140V
• DC switching voltage requirements do not exceed 200V
• Switching current does not exceed 500mA
• DC carry current does not exceed 500mA
• Physical board space accommodates the reduced overall length of 0.640" compared to 0.800"
• Packaging format (Tape & Reel) is compatible with production requirements

The CT10-1030-G1 provides extended operate range capability (10 ~ 30AT versus 10 ~ 20AT), offering improved operational margin in magnetic field sensitive applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the CT10-1030-G1 directly replace the CM15-2259 in all applications?

A: The CT10-1030-G1 is functionally equivalent for applications operating at 140V AC or lower and 200V DC or lower. Applications requiring 200V AC switching must be evaluated for the reduced AC voltage rating of the substitute part.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two parts?

A: The CM15-2259 is rated for 200V AC switching, while the CT10-1030-G1 is rated for 140V AC switching. Both support 200V DC switching. The CT10-1030-G1 has a shorter overall length (0.640" versus 0.800") and comes in Tape & Reel packaging.

Q: Are the physical dimensions compatible for PCB layout?

A: Both parts maintain identical height above board (0.115"). The CT10-1030-G1 has a reduced overall length of 0.640" compared to the CM15-2259 at 0.800". PCB layouts designed for the CM15-2259 will accommodate the CT10-1030-G1 without modification.

Q: What is the difference in current carry rating?

A: The CM15-2259 carries 1.5A AC/DC, while the CT10-1030-G1 carries 500mA DC. For applications requiring continuous current carry above 500mA, the CM15-2259 specifications must be maintained or alternative components evaluated.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The CM15-2259 is RoHS Compliant, and the CT10-1030-G1 is ROHS3 Compliant. Both meet current environmental compliance requirements.

Q: What packaging formats are available?

A: The CM15-2259 packaging format is not specified in available data. The CT10-1030-G1 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, standard for automated assembly processes.

Q: Can the CT10-1030-G1 operate across the same temperature range?

A: Yes. Both parts operate across -40°C to 125°C, ensuring thermal compatibility in equivalent applications.
