HS5E-C7Y003 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The HS5E-C7Y003 is an interlock solenoid locking switch manufactured by IDEC, configured as a DPST (Double Pole Single Throw) with dual circuit capability (DPST-NO/NC + DPST-NC). This component operates at 24VDC supply voltage with a 2.5A current rating across both AC and DC applications, and provides a holding force of 102kgf. The device features cable lead termination, panel disconnect actuator type, and IP67 ingress protection suitable for dust-tight and waterproof applications.

The HS5E-C7Y003 is classified as obsolete. Locating equivalent substitute parts is necessary to maintain system functionality and ensure continued availability for new installations or field replacements where the original part is no longer in production.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the HS5E-C7Y003 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Circuit Configuration: DPST-NO/NC + DPST-NC (dual circuit capability must be maintained)
• Current Rating: 2.5A (AC/DC) minimum
• Voltage Rating: 125VAC, 30VDC minimum
• Supply Voltage: 24VDC operation
• Actuator Type: Panel Disconnect
• Ingress Protection: IP67 minimum
• Type: Solenoid Locking mechanism

The HS5L-VC7Y4M-G qualifies as a direct substitute because it maintains all critical electrical parameters, circuit configuration, and environmental protection ratings. While the HS5L series represents an active product line with enhanced specifications (higher holding force of 143kgf, extended temperature range to 55°C, and spring terminal termination), the core functional requirements for interlock solenoid locking applications are fully satisfied.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The HS5L-VC7Y4M-G is the qualified substitute for the obsolete HS5E-C7Y003. Selection is based on the following engineering criteria:

Functional Equivalence: Both parts maintain identical circuit configuration (DPST-NO/NC + DPST-NC), current rating (2.5A AC/DC), voltage rating (125VAC, 30VDC), and supply voltage (24VDC). The solenoid locking mechanism and panel disconnect actuator type are preserved.

Environmental Protection: Both parts provide IP67 ingress protection, ensuring dust-tight and waterproof operation in equivalent applications.

Regulatory Compliance: The HS5L-VC7Y4M-G carries expanded approval certifications (CCC, CE, TUV, UL) compared to the original part (CE, cURus, TUV), providing broader market acceptance. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant.

Product Availability: The HS5L-VC7Y4M-G is an active product with current inventory, whereas the HS5E-C7Y003 is obsolete and subject to supply discontinuation.

Enhanced Performance: The substitute offers improved holding force (143kgf versus 102kgf) and extended operating temperature range (-25°C to 55°C versus -25°C to 50°C), providing performance margin for demanding applications.

Termination Consideration: The HS5L-VC7Y4M-G uses spring terminal termination instead of cable leads. Integration into existing systems requires evaluation of connection methodology and potential harness modification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the HS5L-VC7Y4M-G directly replace the HS5E-C7Y003 in all applications?

A: The HS5L-VC7Y4M-G is electrically and functionally equivalent for all solenoid locking interlock applications requiring DPST-NO/NC + DPST-NC circuit configuration, 2.5A current rating, 24VDC supply, and IP67 protection. The primary consideration is termination style: the substitute uses spring terminals instead of cable leads, requiring connection method evaluation for your specific installation.

Q: What are the key parameters that determine substitution eligibility?

A: Substitution is determined by equivalence in circuit configuration (DPST-NO/NC + DPST-NC), current rating (2.5A AC/DC), voltage rating (125VAC, 30VDC), supply voltage (24VDC), actuator type (panel disconnect), and ingress protection (IP67). Deviations in any of these parameters disqualify a part as a direct substitute.

Q: Does the higher holding force of the HS5L-VC7Y4M-G (143kgf versus 102kgf) affect compatibility?

A: No. Higher holding force is a performance enhancement that does not compromise compatibility. Applications designed for 102kgf holding force will operate safely with the increased force of 143kgf.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the original and substitute parts?

A: The HS5E-C7Y003 packaging is not specified in available data. The HS5L-VC7Y4M-G is supplied in bulk packaging. Confirm packaging requirements for your procurement and logistics processes.

Q: What regulatory approvals should I verify for my application?

A: The HS5L-VC7Y4M-G carries CE, CCC, TUV, and UL certifications. Verify that these approvals align with your regional requirements and application standards. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant.

Q: Is the extended operating temperature range of the HS5L-VC7Y4M-G (-25°C to 55°C) a requirement for substitution?

A: No. The extended temperature range is an additional capability. If your application operates within the original range (-25°C to 50°C), the substitute will perform adequately. The extended range provides operational margin for temperature-sensitive environments.
