HS5E-C4005 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The HS5E-C4005 is an interlock solenoid release switch manufactured by IDEC, classified as a DPST (Double Pole Single Throw) device with dual circuit configuration (DPST-NO/NC + DPST-NC). This component is rated for 2.5A at 125VAC or 30VDC, with a 24VDC supply voltage and 102kgf holding force. The part features panel disconnect actuator type with cable lead termination and IP67 ingress protection rating.

The HS5E-C4005 is currently classified as obsolete. Identifying equivalent substitute parts is necessary to maintain system functionality and ensure continued availability for applications requiring interlock solenoid release switching capabilities.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The HS5L-VC44M-G is a direct functional substitute for the obsolete HS5E-C4005. Both components share identical electrical specifications (2.5A current rating, 125VAC/30VDC voltage rating, 24VDC supply) and circuit configuration (DPST-NO/NC + DPST-NC), ensuring electrical compatibility in existing applications.

The HS5L-VC44M-G offers enhanced specifications: increased holding force (143kgf versus 102kgf), extended operating temperature range (-25°C to 55°C versus -25°C to 50°C), and expanded approval certifications (CCC, CE, TUV, UL versus CE, cURus, TUV). The component is in active production status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity.

The primary design consideration is termination style: the HS5L-VC44M-G uses spring terminal connections instead of cable leads. This difference requires evaluation of the existing installation method and potential modifications to connection infrastructure.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the HS5L-VC44M-G directly replace the HS5E-C4005 in existing installations?

A: Electrical and functional compatibility is confirmed. The HS5L-VC44M-G maintains identical circuit configuration, current rating, voltage specifications, and supply voltage. However, the termination style differs (spring terminal versus cable leads), requiring assessment of connection compatibility with existing wiring infrastructure.

Q: What is the significance of the higher holding force in the HS5L-VC44M-G?

A: The HS5L-VC44M-G provides 143kgf holding force compared to 102kgf in the HS5E-C4005. This represents increased mechanical holding capability and is compatible with applications requiring the original 102kgf specification, as it exceeds the minimum requirement.

Q: Are there regulatory compliance differences between these parts?

A: Both components are ROHS3 compliant. The HS5L-VC44M-G carries expanded approval certifications (CCC, CE, TUV, UL) compared to the HS5E-C4005 (CE, cURus, TUV). The HS5L-VC44M-G meets or exceeds all regulatory requirements of the original part.

Q: What is the impact of the extended operating temperature range?

A: The HS5L-VC44M-G operates across -25°C to 55°C, extending 5°C beyond the HS5E-C4005 upper limit of 50°C. This provides additional thermal margin for applications operating at elevated temperatures.

Q: How does the spring terminal termination differ from cable leads?

A: Spring terminal connections provide direct screw-down attachment to terminal blocks, while cable leads require soldering or crimping. The substitution requires verification that the installation supports spring terminal connection methodology.
