EB2061-CC Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The EB2061-CC is a pushbutton switch manufactured by NKK Switches, classified as a DPDT (Double Pole Double Throw) standard panel mount switch with rear termination. This component is rated for 3A AC at 125V and features a red round button actuator with solder lug termination and epoxy sealed terminals. The part is currently active in production with 1104 units in stock.

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical ratings, circuit configurations, and mechanical mounting specifications are maintained across manufacturers. This ensures functional interchangeability in applications where the EB2061-CC may be unavailable or where alternative sourcing is required.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the EB2061-CC is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:

• Circuit Configuration: Must be DPDT to maintain identical switching logic
• Current Rating: Must support minimum 3A AC
• Voltage Rating: Must support minimum 125V AC
• Switch Function: Must be On-Mom (momentary action)
• Mounting Type: Must be Panel Mount, Rear to ensure mechanical compatibility
• Termination Style: Must be Solder Lug for circuit board integration
• Electrical Life: Must meet or exceed 25,000 cycles
• Compliance: Must maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating

The MPS-203R from TE Connectivity ALCOSWITCH Switches meets all mandatory substitution criteria and is classified as a direct equivalent.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the EB2061-CC and MPS-203R are active production components with ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 ratings, confirming suitability for standard manufacturing and storage conditions.

Selection between these parts should be based on:

1. Electrical Equivalence: Both parts satisfy identical circuit requirements (DPDT, 3A AC, 125V AC, 25,000 electrical cycles). Either part is electrically interchangeable.

2. Mechanical Compatibility: Both employ panel mount rear termination with solder lug connections. Physical mounting compatibility is confirmed.

3. Operating Environment: The MPS-203R supports an extended temperature range (-20°C to 80°C) compared to the EB2061-CC (-10°C to 70°C). Selection should reflect application temperature requirements.

4. Actuator Characteristics: The EB2061-CC features a round button actuator, while the MPS-203R uses a plunger design. Actuator preference and panel cutout dimensions should be evaluated for mechanical fit.

5. Feature Differentiation: The EB2061-CC provides epoxy sealed terminals; the MPS-203R offers tactile/audible feedback. Application requirements determine which feature set is appropriate.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MPS-203R replace EB2061-CC in existing designs?

A: Yes, provided that actuator type and panel cutout dimensions are compatible with the application. Both parts meet identical electrical specifications (DPDT, 3A AC, 125V AC, momentary function) and termination requirements (solder lug).

Q: Are there differences in mechanical life between these parts?

A: The EB2061-CC specifies 100,000 mechanical cycles. The MPS-203R does not provide a mechanical life specification in the available data. For applications requiring high mechanical cycle counts, verify MPS-203R mechanical life specifications with the manufacturer.

Q: Do both parts comply with environmental regulations?

A: Both EB2061-CC and MPS-203R are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity level), confirming compliance with standard manufacturing and storage protocols.

Q: What is the difference between the actuator types?

A: The EB2061-CC uses a round button actuator without marking. The MPS-203R uses a plunger design intended for cap attachment. Panel cutout dimensions and user interface requirements should guide actuator selection.

Q: Are panel cutout dimensions identical?

A: The EB2061-CC specifies a circular 6.35mm diameter cutout. The MPS-203R panel cutout dimensions are not provided in the available data. Verify mechanical compatibility before substitution.

Q: Which part should be selected for extended temperature applications?

A: The MPS-203R supports -20°C to 80°C operation, compared to the EB2061-CC range of -10°C to 70°C. For applications outside the EB2061-CC temperature range, the MPS-203R is the appropriate selection.
