Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the HC1-H-AC100V-F is determined by the following critical parameters that must align between the main part and substitute candidates:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• Contact Form: SPDT (1 Form C) configuration
• Contact Rating: 10 A minimum
• Coil Voltage: 100VAC nominal (acceptable range: 88VAC to 110VAC based on must-operate and must-release specifications)
• Mounting Type: Socketable with plug-in termination
• Relay Type: General Purpose
• Switching Voltage: Minimum 250VAC capability

The G2R-1-S AC110(S) manufactured by Omron Automation and Safety meets these substitution criteria. While the coil voltage is specified as 110VAC rather than 100VAC, the must-operate voltage of 88VAC and must-release voltage of 33VAC establish compatibility within standard AC supply tolerance ranges. Both relays maintain identical contact form, current rating, socketable mounting, and plug-in termination, enabling direct functional substitution in applications designed for the HC1-H-AC100V-F.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The G2R-1-S AC110(S) is the identified substitute for the obsolete HC1-H-AC100V-F. Selection of this substitute is supported by the following factors:

Product Status: The G2R-1-S AC110(S) maintains Active product status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability compared to the obsolete HC1-H-AC100V-F.

Compliance & Certifications: Both relays carry identical ECCN classification (EAR99) and MSL rating (1 - Unlimited). The G2R-1-S AC110(S) additionally carries RoHS3 Compliance and REACH Unaffected status, meeting modern regulatory requirements.

Functional Compatibility: Identical contact form (SPDT), current rating (10A), and socketable mounting with plug-in termination ensure mechanical and electrical interchangeability. The coil voltage differential (100VAC vs. 110VAC) falls within acceptable AC supply tolerance ranges, with must-operate and must-release voltage specifications confirming reliable actuation in standard 100-110VAC supply environments.

Performance Characteristics: The G2R-1-S AC110(S) demonstrates improved switching voltage capability (440VAC, 125VDC vs. 250VAC), reduced coil current draw (8.2mA vs. 13.2mA), and faster response times (15ms operate, 10ms release vs. 20ms each), providing performance advantages in the substitution.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the G2R-1-S AC110(S) directly replace the HC1-H-AC100V-F in existing applications?

A: Yes. Both relays share identical SPDT contact form, 10A current rating, socketable mounting, and plug-in termination. The 110VAC coil voltage of the substitute operates within the acceptable range defined by the 88VAC must-operate specification, ensuring reliable actuation in standard 100-110VAC supply environments.

Q: What is the significance of the coil voltage difference (100VAC vs. 110VAC)?

A: The 10VAC difference represents standard AC supply tolerance. The G2R-1-S AC110(S) must-operate voltage of 88VAC and must-release voltage of 33VAC confirm the relay will function reliably across typical AC supply variations. This is a normal substitution parameter within industrial relay applications.

Q: Are there any temperature range limitations when substituting?

A: The G2R-1-S AC110(S) operates across -40°C to 70°C, compared to the HC1-H-AC100V-F range of -50°C to 70°C. Applications requiring operation below -40°C may require additional evaluation. For standard industrial environments, this difference is not typically limiting.

Q: What packaging considerations apply to this substitution?

A: The HC1-H-AC100V-F is specified with socketable mounting and plug-in termination. The G2R-1-S AC110(S) maintains identical socketable mounting and plug-in termination with Quick Connect - 0.187" (4.7mm) capability, ensuring compatibility with existing relay sockets and wiring harnesses.

Q: Does the substitute offer any performance improvements?

A: The G2R-1-S AC110(S) provides higher maximum switching voltage (440VAC, 125VDC vs. 250VAC), lower coil current consumption (8.2mA vs. 13.2mA), and faster response times (15ms operate, 10ms release vs. 20ms each). These characteristics represent performance enhancements suitable for modern applications.

Q: What compliance advantages does the substitute provide?

A: The G2R-1-S AC110(S) carries RoHS3 Compliance and REACH Unaffected status, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements. Both relays maintain EAR99 export classification and MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating.
