GA8-6B02R Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The GA8-6B02R is a solid state relay (SSR) manufactured by Sensata-Crydom, designed for AC load switching applications. This SPST-NO (1 Form A) relay operates with a 3–28 VDC input and controls loads up to 4.6 A at 24–280 V AC. The device is housed in a 4-SIP package with PC pin termination for through-hole mounting. The GA8-6B02R maintains Active product status and is ROHS3 compliant, making it suitable for modern industrial and commercial applications. Equivalent parts may be required due to inventory constraints, design optimization, or supply chain considerations.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The ASR-SD240D5RW qualifies as an equivalent substitute for the GA8-6B02R based on the following critical parameters:

Functional Compatibility:

• Both devices implement SPST-NO (1 Form A) switching architecture
• Both control AC loads within the 24–280 V range
• Both use 4-SIP package format with PC pin termination
• Both support through-hole mounting

Electrical Compatibility:

• Input voltage ranges overlap: GA8-6B02R operates at 3–28 VDC; ASR-SD240D5RW operates at 4–32 VDC. The ASR-SD240D5RW accepts the full operating range of the GA8-6B02R
• Load current rating of ASR-SD240D5RW (5 A) exceeds the GA8-6B02R requirement (4.6 A), providing margin for circuit reliability
• Load voltage specification (24–280 V) is identical

Compliance & Regulatory:

• Both devices are ROHS3 compliant
• Both carry REACH Unaffected status
• Both share identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.41.0030) classifications

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The ASR-SD240D5RW is a direct functional equivalent to the GA8-6B02R for AC load switching applications. Both parts maintain Active product status and meet current regulatory requirements (ROHS3, REACH Unaffected). The ASR-SD240D5RW provides increased current capacity (5 A versus 4.6 A) and extended input voltage tolerance (4–32 VDC versus 3–28 VDC), making it suitable for applications requiring the GA8-6B02R specification. Identical package format, termination style, and load voltage range ensure mechanical and electrical interchangeability in through-hole PCB designs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the ASR-SD240D5RW replace the GA8-6B02R in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical circuit configuration (SPST-NO), output type (AC), package format (4-SIP), termination style (PC Pin), and load voltage range (24–280 V). The ASR-SD240D5RW accommodates the full input voltage range of the GA8-6B02R and provides higher current capacity.

Q: What are the key differences between these parts?

A: The primary differences are manufacturer (Sensata-Crydom versus Altran Magnetics, LLC), input voltage range (3–28 VDC versus 4–32 VDC), and load current rating (4.6 A versus 5 A). The ASR-SD240D5RW offers extended specifications in both parameters.

Q: Are the package dimensions identical?

A: Both parts use the 4-SIP package format with PC pin termination. Mechanical compatibility is ensured for through-hole mounting applications.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both the GA8-6B02R and ASR-SD240D5RW are ROHS3 compliant and carry REACH Unaffected status. Both share identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: Selection depends on availability and supply chain requirements. Both parts are Active and suitable for new designs. The ASR-SD240D5RW provides additional design margin through higher current capacity and extended input voltage range.
