Engineering Selection Recommendations

The CT2238-7 is the direct equivalent substitute for the obsolete CT2910-7. Both components share identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters. The primary distinction is product status: CT2238-7 maintains Active status with current manufacturing and inventory availability (1435 Pcs in stock), whereas CT2910-7 is obsolete with limited remaining inventory (1025 Pcs).

For new designs and system replacements, CT2238-7 is the appropriate selection. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, ensuring regulatory alignment for current and future applications. The identical operating temperature range (-20°C ~ 80°C) and contact material specifications guarantee functional equivalence in all specified operating conditions.
