Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the obsolete 2-1393217-6 is determined by strict equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The substitute part must maintain identical specifications for coil voltage (6VDC), contact form (SPST-NO), current rating (6A), switching voltage (400VAC maximum), coil current (33.3 mA), coil resistance (180 Ohms), mounting configuration (through hole), termination style (PC pin), operating temperature range (-40°C to 70°C), seal rating (fully sealed), and coil insulation class (Class F). Additionally, the substitute must satisfy the must-operate voltage (4.2 VDC) and must-release voltage (0.6 VDC) thresholds, with matching switching times (10 ms operate, 5 ms release). Contact material composition and relay type classification must also align with the original specification.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RE035006 substitute part is the direct equivalent for the obsolete 2-1393217-6. All critical electrical parameters, mechanical specifications, and functional characteristics are identical. The substitute maintains active product status with current manufacturing support, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity. The RE035006 carries RoHS compliance certification, providing enhanced environmental and regulatory alignment compared to the original part specification. The contact material composition of the substitute includes both Silver Nickel and Gold plating options, which are compatible with and do not compromise the electrical performance requirements of the original specification. Direct substitution is supported without circuit modification or system redesign.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the RE035006 be used as a direct replacement for the 2-1393217-6 in existing circuit designs?

A: Yes. The RE035006 maintains identical electrical specifications including coil voltage (6VDC), contact rating (6A), switching voltage (400VAC), coil current (33.3 mA), coil resistance (180 Ohms), and all timing parameters (10 ms operate, 5 ms release). Mechanical compatibility is confirmed through identical mounting type (through hole) and termination style (PC pin). No circuit modifications are required.

Q: What is the difference in contact material between the main part and the substitute?

A: The original 2-1393217-6 specifies Silver Nickel (AgNi) contact material. The RE035006 substitute provides Silver Nickel (AgNi) with additional Gold (Au) plating options. This enhancement does not alter electrical performance and maintains full compatibility with the original specification.

Q: Why is the substitute part listed as Active while the original is Obsolete?

A: The 2-1393217-6 has reached end-of-life status and is no longer manufactured. The RE035006 is the current production equivalent from TE Connectivity Potter & Brumfield Relays, offering identical functionality with ongoing manufacturing support and availability.

Q: Does the RE035006 meet RoHS compliance requirements?

A: Yes. The RE035006 is RoHS Compliant, providing enhanced environmental and regulatory alignment. The original 2-1393217-6 does not specify RoHS status.

Q: Are the operating temperature ranges identical between both parts?

A: Yes. Both the 2-1393217-6 and RE035006 operate across the identical temperature range of -40°C to 70°C with matching must-operate voltage (4.2 VDC) and must-release voltage (0.6 VDC) thresholds.

Q: What is the inventory status of the substitute part?

A: The RE035006 has 705 pieces in new original stock, providing immediate availability for procurement and deployment.
