EB2061-CF Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The EB2061-CF 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 green round button actuator with solder lug termination and epoxy sealed terminals. The part is currently active in production with 899 pieces available in stock.

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical ratings, circuit configurations, and mechanical mounting specifications are maintained across different manufacturers. This ensures functional interchangeability in applications where the original part may be unavailable or where design flexibility across qualified suppliers is required.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the EB2061-CF is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Circuit Configuration: DPDT topology must be maintained
• Electrical Ratings: Current rating of 3A AC and voltage rating of 125V AC are mandatory
• Switch Function: On-Mom (momentary) operation required
• Mounting Configuration: Panel mount with rear termination
• Termination Style: Solder lug connection
• Compliance: ROHS3 compliance and EAR99 ECCN classification
• Electrical Life: Minimum 25,000 cycles

The MPS-203R from TE Connectivity ALCOSWITCH Switches meets all critical substitution criteria. Both parts share identical electrical specifications, circuit topology, mounting configuration, and termination style. Compliance certifications align across both components.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the EB2061-CF and MPS-203R are active production components with ROHS3 compliance and EAR99 classification. Selection between these parts should be based on:

• Supply Chain Availability: Both manufacturers maintain active inventory status
• Regulatory Compliance: Both parts meet identical compliance requirements
• Operational Specifications: Electrical and mechanical parameters are equivalent
• Temperature Operating Range: EB2061-CF operates -10°C ~ 70°C; MPS-203R operates -20°C ~ 80°C. The MPS-203R provides extended low-temperature capability
• Mechanical Life Data: EB2061-CF specifies 100,000 cycles mechanical life; MPS-203R does not provide this specification in available data

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

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

A: Yes. Both parts share identical DPDT circuit topology, 3A AC / 125V AC electrical ratings, panel mount rear configuration, and solder lug termination. Electrical and mechanical compatibility is established.

Q: Are there differences in actuator design between these parts?

A: The EB2061-CF features a round button actuator with green color. The MPS-203R uses a plunger-type actuator. Both are functionally equivalent for DPDT momentary operation. Physical mounting dimensions and panel cutout compatibility should be verified for specific applications.

Q: What is the difference in operating temperature ranges?

A: EB2061-CF operates from -10°C to 70°C. MPS-203R operates from -20°C to 80°C. For applications requiring extended low-temperature operation below -10°C, the MPS-203R is the appropriate selection.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both EB2061-CF and MPS-203R are ROHS3 compliant with MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited).

Q: What is the electrical life specification for both parts?

A: Both parts are rated for 25,000 electrical cycles minimum.

Q: Are there any compliance or export restrictions?

A: Both parts are classified as EAR99 under ECCN regulations. REACH status is defined for EB2061-CF (REACH Unaffected) and listed as Vendor Undefined for MPS-203R.
