HL2-HP-DC6V Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The HL2-HP-DC6V is a general purpose relay manufactured by Panasonic Electric Works, featuring a DPDT (2 Form C) contact configuration with a 6VDC coil and 10A contact rating. This through-hole mounted relay is designed for general switching applications requiring dual-pole, dual-throw functionality at 6 volts DC.

The HL2-HP-DC6V is classified as obsolete. Identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity, ensure supply chain availability, and support ongoing production or maintenance requirements for systems utilizing this relay.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the HL2-HP-DC6V are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching. The following criteria determine substitution eligibility:

Critical Matching Parameters:

• Coil voltage: 6VDC
• Contact form: DPDT (2 Form C)
• Contact rating: 10 A minimum
• Coil current: 150 mA
• Coil resistance: 40 Ohms
• Mounting type: Through Hole
• Termination style: PC Pin
• Coil type: Non Latching

The LY2-0-DC6 manufactured by Omron Automation and Safety meets all critical electrical and mechanical parameters required for direct substitution in applications utilizing the HL2-HP-DC6V.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The LY2-0-DC6 is a direct electrical and mechanical substitute for the HL2-HP-DC6V. Both relays are classified as obsolete products, indicating limited ongoing availability from original manufacturers.

The LY2-0-DC6 provides higher maximum switching voltage capability (250VAC, 125VDC) compared to the HL2-HP-DC6V nominal rating of 125VAC, offering enhanced voltage margin in switching applications. The LY2-0-DC6 is RoHS compliant, whereas RoHS status is not specified for the HL2-HP-DC6V.

Timing characteristics differ between the two relays: the HL2-HP-DC6V operates in 10 ms with 5 ms release time, while the LY2-0-DC6 requires 25 ms for both operate and release. Applications with strict timing requirements must account for this difference.

Operating temperature range differs: the HL2-HP-DC6V supports -50°C to 70°C, while the LY2-0-DC6 operates within -25°C to 55°C. Temperature-critical applications must verify compatibility with the LY2-0-DC6 operating range.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the LY2-0-DC6 replace the HL2-HP-DC6V in existing designs?

A: Yes. The LY2-0-DC6 matches all critical electrical parameters: 6VDC coil voltage, DPDT contact form, 10A contact rating, 150 mA coil current, 40 Ohm coil resistance, and PC pin termination. Both are through-hole mounted non-latching relays with silver alloy contacts.

Q: What differences should be considered when substituting?

A: Three parameter differences exist: operate and release times are longer on the LY2-0-DC6 (25 ms each versus 10 ms and 5 ms), the operating temperature range is narrower (-25°C to 55°C versus -50°C to 70°C), and the LY2-0-DC6 has higher maximum switching voltage capability (250VAC, 125VDC versus 125VAC nominal).

Q: Are both relays still available?

A: Both the HL2-HP-DC6V and LY2-0-DC6 are classified as obsolete. Availability is limited and should be confirmed with component distributors before design commitment.

Q: What is the packaging difference?

A: The HL2-HP-DC6V is supplied in standard packaging, while the LY2-0-DC6 is supplied in bulk packaging. Both are through-hole mounted components with identical PC pin termination.

Q: Does the LY2-0-DC6 require any circuit modifications?

A: No circuit modifications are required. The LY2-0-DC6 is a direct pin-compatible substitute with identical coil voltage, current, and resistance specifications. Applications must account for the longer switching times if timing-critical functionality is present.
