ALZ12F06W Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ALZ12F06W is a general purpose relay manufactured by Panasonic Electric Works, featuring SPDT (1 Form C) contact configuration with 16A contact rating and 6VDC coil voltage. This through-hole mounted relay is designed for industrial control and switching applications requiring sealed, fully protected operation across extended temperature ranges. The part is currently active in production with full RoHS compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating.

Equivalent and substitute parts are identified to support procurement flexibility, inventory management, and supply chain continuity when the primary part becomes unavailable or when design requirements permit functional alternatives.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the ALZ12F06W is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Coil voltage: 6VDC (exact match required)
• Contact form: SPDT (1 Form C) (exact match required)
• Contact rating: 16 A (exact match required)
• Coil current: 66.7 mA (exact match required)
• Coil resistance: 90 Ohms (exact match required)
• Mounting type: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Termination style: PC Pin (exact match required)
• Coil type: Non Latching (exact match required)
• Coil insulation: Class F (exact match required)
• Must operate voltage: 4.2 VDC (exact match required)
• Must release voltage: 0.6 VDC (exact match required)

All three identified substitute parts (2-1415899-0, RT314006, RTD14006) meet these core electrical and mechanical requirements. Variations in switching voltage, operating temperature range, contact material, seal rating, and packaging are secondary considerations that do not preclude functional substitution.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three substitute parts are active production items with current regulatory compliance status. Selection between ALZ12F06W and its equivalents should be based on the following factors:

2-1415899-0 (TE Connectivity RZ Series): This part matches all core electrical parameters and maintains bulk packaging identical to the primary part. Operating temperature range is reduced to -40°C ~ 85°C, which may be a limiting factor in applications requiring the full -40°C ~ 105°C range of the ALZ12F06W. Seal rating is not specified. ROHS3 compliance is confirmed.

RT314006 (TE Connectivity RT1 Series): This part provides equivalent electrical performance with tube packaging. Operating temperature range is -40°C ~ 85°C. Seal rating is specified as Sealed - Flux Protection, which differs from the full seal rating of the primary part. ROHS3 compliance is confirmed. Higher inventory availability (2377 pcs) supports procurement continuity.

RTD14006 (TE Connectivity RT1 Series): This part delivers equivalent electrical performance with tube packaging and full seal rating (Sealed - Fully) matching the primary part. Operating temperature range is -40°C ~ 85°C. ROHS3 compliance is confirmed. Inventory availability (1283 pcs) supports supply chain flexibility.

For applications operating within -40°C ~ 85°C temperature limits, all three substitutes are functionally equivalent. For applications requiring operation above 85°C, the ALZ12F06W remains the only option among these parts.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RT314006 be used as a direct replacement for ALZ12F06W in all applications?

A: RT314006 meets all core electrical and mechanical requirements for functional substitution. However, its operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 85°C) is narrower than the ALZ12F06W (-40°C ~ 105°C). Applications requiring operation above 85°C must use the ALZ12F06W or equivalent parts with extended temperature ratings.

Q: What is the difference between the seal ratings of these parts?

A: ALZ12F06W and RTD14006 are both rated as Sealed - Fully, providing complete environmental protection. RT314006 is rated as Sealed - Flux Protection, which provides protection against flux residue but may not offer the same level of environmental sealing. 2-1415899-0 does not specify a seal rating. Application requirements for environmental protection should guide selection.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: ALZ12F06W and 2-1415899-0 are supplied in bulk packaging. RT314006 and RTD14006 are supplied in tube packaging. Bulk packaging is typically used for high-volume assembly operations, while tube packaging is common for lower-volume or manual assembly processes. Packaging selection should align with assembly line requirements and handling procedures.

Q: Do the differences in contact material affect substitution eligibility?

A: ALZ12F06W uses Silver Tin Oxide (AgSnO) contact material, while all three substitute parts use Silver Nickel (AgNi). Both materials are suitable for general purpose relay applications at the specified 16A contact rating and 440VAC/400VAC switching voltages. Contact material selection does not preclude functional substitution for the specified electrical parameters.

Q: What is the significance of the operate and release time differences?

A: ALZ12F06W has operate time of 15 ms and release time of 5 ms. All three substitute parts have operate time of 8 ms and release time of 6 ms. These timing differences are secondary to the core electrical parameters. Applications with specific timing requirements should evaluate whether the faster operate time and slightly slower release time of the substitute parts are acceptable for the intended circuit function.

Q: Are all parts RoHS compliant?

A: ALZ12F06W is RoHS Compliant. All three substitute parts are ROHS3 Compliant. Both designations indicate compliance with RoHS directives and are acceptable for applications requiring RoHS compliance.
