Equivalent & Substitute Parts Reference: AZ8462P1-3

Part Overview

The AZ8462P1-3 from American Zettler is a General Purpose Relay with a DPDT (2 Form C) contact configuration, suitable for through-hole mounting. Classified as active status, its key electrical ratings include a coil voltage of 3VDC, contact current rating of 2A, switching voltage up to 250VAC/220VDC, and full sealing. Substituting this relay may be required due to inventory constraints, lead time requirements, or cross-manufacturer standardization in the relay components category.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the AZ8462P1-3 are selected strictly based on comparison of the following relays category parameters: mounting type, coil voltage, contact form, contact current rating, switching voltage, coil current, coil type, sealing rating, operate and release time, operating temperature range, contact material, coil resistance, compliance status (RoHS), and approval agency/certification. Substitution is accepted only when these parameters match the original part exactly or remain within clearly defined limits as specified.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the AZ8462P1-3 and TX2-L-3V relay models are in active status and ROHS3 compliant. Each meets the ECCN EAR99 and shares identical mounting, coil voltage, contact form, contact current rating, coil current, coil resistance, sealing rating, operate and release times, and operating temperature ranges. Both the main part and the substitute are approved for use under similar regulatory classifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What are the critical parameters for relay substitution in this category?
A1: The critical substitution parameters for DPDT latching relays include coil voltage, contact rating, switching voltage, coil type, mounting style, operate/release times, sealing rating, coil resistance, regulatory compliance, and operational temperature range.

Q2: Are there any differences in mounting or sealing between the AZ8462P1-3 and TX2-L-3V relays?
A2: No, both relays use through-hole mounting and are fully sealed.

Q3: Can the TX2-L-3V be substituted for the AZ8462P1-3 without electrical modification?
A3: Yes, based on provided parameters, both parts have matching electrical and mechanical characteristics relevant for substitution.

Q4: Does the contact material affect compatibility?
A4: Both relays use gold and a silver-based material for contacts; the main difference is Silver Nickel (AgNi) versus Silver (Ag). Compatibility is maintained as both are suitable for similar applications per provided data.

Q5: Are there any concerns with environmental compliance or certification?
A5: Both AZ8462P1-3 and TX2-L-3V carry ROHS3 compliance and satisfy ECCN EAR99 classification, ensuring environmental and regulatory compatibility.
