EB2011-CB Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The EB2011-CB is an SPDT pushbutton switch manufactured by NKK Switches, rated for 3A at 125V AC with panel mount rear configuration. This component is designed for standard switching applications requiring momentary on-off functionality with solder lug termination. The part is currently active in production with 715 units in stock. Equivalent parts are identified when they maintain identical electrical ratings, circuit configuration, and mechanical mounting compatibility while potentially offering alternative actuator designs or enhanced operating temperature ranges.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the EB2011-CB is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Electrical Compatibility: Circuit type (SPDT), current rating (3A AC), and voltage rating (125V AC) must be identical
• Functional Equivalence: Switch function must be On-Mom (momentary action)
• Mechanical Compatibility: Mounting configuration (Panel Mount, Rear) and termination style (Solder Lug) must match
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS3 compliance and MSL rating must be maintained
• Operational Life: Electrical life rating of 25,000 cycles is the baseline requirement

The MPS-103F from TE Connectivity ALCOSWITCH Switches meets all mandatory substitution criteria. Variations in actuator type (Round Button vs. Plunger for Cap), operating temperature range (-10°C ~ 70°C vs. -20°C ~ 80°C), and mechanical life specifications do not preclude substitution when the core electrical and mechanical parameters align.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the EB2011-CB and MPS-103F are active production components with ROHS3 compliance and identical electrical specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on:

• Actuator Preference: The EB2011-CB features a round button actuator, while the MPS-103F uses a plunger-type actuator. Panel layout and user interface requirements determine the appropriate choice.
• Temperature Operating Range: The MPS-103F supports an extended operating range (-20°C ~ 80°C) compared to the EB2011-CB (-10°C ~ 70°C). Applications requiring operation outside the EB2011-CB range should specify the MPS-103F.
• Inventory Availability: The EB2011-CB has 715 units in stock; the MPS-103F has 991 units available.
• Regulatory Compliance: Both parts maintain identical compliance certifications (ROHS3, EAR99, MSL 1).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MPS-103F directly replace the EB2011-CB in existing designs?

A: Yes, the MPS-103F is electrically and mechanically equivalent. Both parts share identical SPDT circuit configuration, 3A/125V AC ratings, momentary switch function, panel mount rear configuration, and solder lug termination. The primary difference is actuator geometry (round button vs. plunger), which may require panel cutout verification.

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

A: The EB2011-CB and MPS-103F differ in actuator type, operating temperature range, and mechanical life specification. The MPS-103F provides a wider operating temperature window (-20°C ~ 80°C vs. -10°C ~ 70°C) and includes tactile/audible feedback. Electrical life, current/voltage ratings, and circuit configuration are identical.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes, both the EB2011-CB and MPS-103F are ROHS3 compliant with MSL rating 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity level).

Q: What is the panel cutout requirement for the MPS-103F?

A: The EB2011-CB specifies a circular 6.35mm diameter panel cutout. The MPS-103F panel cutout dimensions are not provided in the specification data. Physical verification is required before installation to confirm mechanical compatibility with existing panel designs.

Q: Which part should be selected for high-temperature applications?

A: The MPS-103F supports operation up to 80°C, compared to the EB2011-CB maximum of 70°C. For applications requiring sustained operation above 70°C, the MPS-103F is the appropriate selection.
