Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the obsolete 8-1415032-1 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Specifications:

• Coil voltage: 5VDC (non-negotiable for circuit compatibility)
• Contact form: SPDT (1 Form C) (functional switching requirement)
• Contact rating: 8A minimum (load-carrying capacity)
• Switching voltage: 400VAC maximum (voltage withstand capability)
• Coil type: Non-latching (operational behavior)
• Must operate voltage: 3.5VDC (minimum activation threshold)
• Must release voltage: 0.5VDC (deactivation threshold)
• Operate time: 9ms (switching speed)
• Release time: 5ms (release speed)

Mechanical & Environmental Specifications:

• Mounting type: Through-hole (PCB integration method)
• Termination style: PC pin (connection interface)
• Seal rating: Sealed - fully (environmental protection)
• Operating temperature: -40°C to 70°C (thermal operating envelope)
• Contact material: Silver nickel (AgNi) (contact reliability)

Compliance & Regulatory:

• RoHS3 compliance (environmental regulation)
• REACH unaffected status (chemical regulation)

The substitute part RY612005 meets all specified parameters and is classified as active product status, providing assured long-term availability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RY612005 is the direct functional equivalent of the obsolete 8-1415032-1. All electrical, mechanical, and environmental parameters are identical. The substitute part is manufactured by the same supplier (TE Connectivity Potter & Brumfield Relays) within the same RY/SCHRACK series.

Product Status Advantage: The RY612005 holds active product status with 6500 units in stock, compared to the obsolete status of the main part. This ensures sustained availability for production requirements and future replacement needs.

Compliance Status: Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, satisfying current environmental and chemical regulatory requirements.

Direct Substitution: The RY612005 can be used as a direct replacement in all applications where the 8-1415032-1 was specified. No circuit modifications, PCB redesign, or functional requalification is required.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RY612005 be used as a direct replacement for 8-1415032-1 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The RY612005 is electrically and mechanically identical to the 8-1415032-1 across all specified parameters. Direct substitution is applicable without design changes.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The 8-1415032-1 is classified as obsolete product. The RY612005 is the active equivalent, ensuring supply chain continuity and long-term availability.

Q: Are there differences in packaging between these parts?

A: The 8-1415032-1 is supplied in standard packaging, while the RY612005 is supplied in bulk packaging. Both parts are identical in form, fit, and function. Packaging format does not affect electrical or mechanical performance.

Q: Do both parts meet current environmental regulations?

A: Yes. Both the 8-1415032-1 and RY612005 are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, satisfying current environmental and chemical regulatory requirements.

Q: What are the key electrical parameters that define substitution compatibility?

A: Coil voltage (5VDC), contact form (SPDT), contact rating (8A), switching voltage (400VAC maximum), and timing specifications (9ms operate, 5ms release) are the critical parameters. The RY612005 matches all of these specifications.

Q: Is the coil current specification relevant for substitution?

A: The coil current (44.6mA for RY612005) is a derived specification based on coil resistance and voltage. It does not affect substitution compatibility, as the circuit driving the relay coil will supply the required voltage and current automatically.

Q: Can these relays be used in temperature-sensitive applications?

A: Both parts operate across the -40°C to 70°C temperature range. Applications requiring operation outside this range require alternative relay selection.

Q: What is the contact material significance?

A: Both parts use Silver Nickel (AgNi) contact material, providing consistent electrical performance, contact reliability, and switching characteristics across the substitution.
