Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the J7AN-E3-DC12 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Coil voltage specification (12VDC)
• Contact configuration (3PST-NO / 3 Form A)
• Current rating (15 A minimum)
• Maximum switching voltage (600VAC)
• Mounting compatibility (Chassis Mount, DIN Rail)
• Termination method (Screw Terminal)
• Operating temperature range (-10°C ~ 55°C)

The J7AN-E9-DC12 satisfies all these criteria and is classified as an active product within the same J7AN series, making it a direct functional equivalent.
