HL2-PS-K Relay Socket 8 Position Through Hole - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The HL2-PS-K is an 8-position through-hole relay socket manufactured by Panasonic Electric Works, designed for use with HL2 Series relays. This component is classified as obsolete, making equivalent substitute parts necessary for ongoing maintenance, repair, and new design applications where HL2 relay compatibility is required or where alternative socket solutions are acceptable.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the HL2-PS-K are qualified based on the following critical parameters that determine functional equivalence:

• Number of Positions: 8 (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Termination Style: PC Pin (exact match required)
• Type: Socket (exact match required)
• ECCN Classification: EAR99 (regulatory alignment)
• HTSUS Code: 8536.69.4040 (tariff classification alignment)

Both substitute parts listed below meet all these core electrical and mechanical criteria, making them suitable alternatives for applications requiring 8-position through-hole relay sockets with PC pin termination.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

27E489 (TE Connectivity Potter & Brumfield Relays)

This substitute is actively manufactured and available in high inventory (3122 pcs). It meets all core electrical and mechanical parameters. The part carries RoHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status, supporting modern regulatory requirements. Packaging is provided in Tray format. MSL is listed as Not Applicable, indicating no moisture sensitivity constraints during storage or handling.

PT08-0 (Omron Automation and Safety)

This substitute is actively manufactured with substantial inventory availability (3929 pcs). It meets all core electrical and mechanical parameters and is compatible with LY Series and SPDT/DPDT relay applications. The part carries RoHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status. MSL is rated at 1 (Unlimited), matching the original HL2-PS-K specification. Packaging is provided in Bulk format.

Both substitutes are suitable for direct replacement in applications where the 8-position through-hole socket configuration is required. Selection between them should be based on packaging requirements, inventory availability, and compatibility with the specific relay series in use.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 27E489 and PT08-0 be used interchangeably with the HL2-PS-K?

A: Both parts meet the core substitution criteria: 8 positions, through-hole mounting, and PC pin termination. However, compatibility depends on the specific relay model being used. The HL2-PS-K is designed for HL2 Series relays, the 27E489 for K10 Series relays, and the PT08-0 for LY Series relays. Verify that the relay model in your application is compatible with the selected socket.

Q: What is the difference in packaging between the substitute parts?

A: The 27E489 is supplied in Tray packaging, while the PT08-0 is supplied in Bulk packaging. Tray packaging typically provides organized component presentation and may offer handling advantages in automated assembly environments. Bulk packaging is suitable for manual assembly or applications with less stringent handling requirements.

Q: Are both substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes, both the 27E489 and PT08-0 carry RoHS3 compliance certification, meeting current environmental and hazardous substance restrictions.

Q: What does MSL (Moisture Sensitivity Level) mean for these parts?

A: MSL indicates moisture sensitivity during storage and handling. The HL2-PS-K and PT08-0 are rated MSL 1 (Unlimited), meaning they have no moisture sensitivity constraints. The 27E489 is listed as Not Applicable, indicating no moisture sensitivity concerns for that part.

Q: Are these parts subject to export restrictions?

A: All three parts carry the ECCN classification EAR99, which is the most permissive export classification and indicates no specific export restrictions apply.
