Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 5-1462037-6 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

  • Coil Voltage: 4.5VDC
  • Contact Form: DPDT (2 Form C)
  • Contact Rating (Current): 2 A
  • Mounting Type: Through Hole
  • Coil Current: 22.2 mA
  • Coil Type: Latching, Single Coil
  • Termination Style: PC Pin
  • Must Operate Voltage: 3.38 VDC
  • Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 85°C
  • Coil Resistance: 203 Ohms

Acceptable Variation Parameters:

  • Switching Voltage: Substitute may have lower maximum switching voltage rating
  • Operate Time / Release Time: Substitute may have longer response times
  • Seal Rating: Substitute may have different or unspecified seal rating
  • Contact Material: Substitute may use different precious metal compositions
  • Packaging: Substitute may be supplied in different packaging format

The Panasonic Electric Works AGQ2104H meets all mandatory matching parameters and qualifies as a direct substitute for the TE Connectivity 5-1462037-6.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

TE Connectivity Potter & Brumfield Relays 5-1462037-6 (Primary Part)

Select this part when the application requires maximum switching voltage capability (250VAC, 220VDC) and hermetically sealed construction. The part is active, ROHS3 compliant, and REACH unaffected. Hermetic sealing provides enhanced protection in demanding telecom environments.

Panasonic Electric Works AGQ2104H (Substitute Part)

Select this part as an alternative when the primary part is unavailable or when inventory sourcing from Panasonic is preferred. The AGQ2104H is active and ROHS3 compliant with REACH unaffected status. This substitute operates within identical coil voltage, contact configuration, and temperature specifications. The switching voltage rating is lower (125VAC, 110VDC maximum), and response times are marginally longer (4 ms operate and release versus 3 ms). Applications requiring the full switching voltage capability of the primary part should not use this substitute. Both parts are supplied through different packaging formats (Bulk versus Tube).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Panasonic AGQ2104H be used in place of the TE Connectivity 5-1462037-6?

A: The Panasonic AGQ2104H qualifies as a substitute when the application switching voltage requirement does not exceed 125VAC or 110VDC. Both parts share identical coil voltage (4.5VDC), contact form (DPDT), current rating (2A), and operating temperature range (-40°C to 85°C). The AGQ2104H has marginally longer response times (4 ms versus 3 ms). If the application requires the higher switching voltage capability of the primary part, substitution is not appropriate.

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

A: The primary differences are: (1) Switching voltage maximum rating—TE Connectivity supports 250VAC/220VDC while Panasonic supports 125VAC/110VDC; (2) Response times—TE Connectivity operates and releases in 3 ms while Panasonic requires 4 ms; (3) Seal rating—TE Connectivity is hermetically sealed while Panasonic seal rating is unspecified; (4) Packaging—TE Connectivity is supplied in Bulk while Panasonic is supplied in Tube format; (5) Contact material composition differs between manufacturers.

Q: Are both parts RoHS and REACH compliant?

A: Both the TE Connectivity 5-1462037-6 and Panasonic AGQ2104H are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.

Q: Does packaging format affect electrical performance?

A: Packaging format (Bulk versus Tube) does not affect electrical performance or functional characteristics. Packaging selection is determined by inventory management, handling, and logistics requirements.

Q: What is the coil resistance for both parts?

A: Both parts have identical coil resistance of 203 Ohms, ensuring equivalent electrical loading on drive circuits.

Q: Can these relays be used interchangeably in high-voltage switching applications?

A: Interchangeability depends on the specific switching voltage requirement. Applications requiring switching voltages above 125VAC or 110VDC must use the TE Connectivity 5-1462037-6. Applications within the 125VAC/110VDC range can use either part.
