Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MY2-GS AC200/220 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Coil voltage matching (220VAC)
• Contact configuration (DPDT / 2 Form C)
• Socketable mounting compatibility
• Coil current and resistance equivalence (5.3 mA, 12.95 kOhms)
• Operating temperature range compatibility (-55°C ~ 70°C)
• Contact material consistency (Silver)

The MY2-GS-R AC200/220 qualifies as a direct substitute based on these parameters. While the contact rating is upgraded to 10A (exceeding the original 5A specification), all other critical electrical and mechanical parameters remain equivalent or compatible. The coil voltage, contact form, mounting type, coil characteristics, and operating conditions are identical.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MY2-GS-R AC200/220 is the manufacturer-recommended substitute for the obsolete MY2-GS AC200/220. Both relays are manufactured by Omron Automation and Safety and share identical electrical characteristics for coil operation and switching performance.

The MY2-GS-R AC200/220 is currently in active production status, ensuring availability for new installations and replacement applications. The upgraded contact rating of 10A provides enhanced current-carrying capacity while maintaining full compatibility with the original 5A design envelope.

The termination style of the MY2-GS-R AC200/220 includes both Plug In and Quick Connect options, offering greater flexibility in circuit board integration compared to the original Plug In-only configuration.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MY2-GS-R AC200/220 directly replace the MY2-GS AC200/220 in existing circuits?

A: Yes. The MY2-GS-R AC200/220 maintains identical coil voltage (220VAC), contact configuration (DPDT), coil current (5.3 mA), and operating characteristics. The socketable mounting type ensures mechanical compatibility. The upgraded 10A contact rating is backward-compatible with applications originally designed for 5A operation.

Q: What is the significance of the contact rating upgrade from 5A to 10A?

A: The contact rating defines the maximum continuous current the relay contacts can safely switch. The MY2-GS-R AC200/220 with 10A rating can handle higher current loads than the original 5A specification. This upgrade does not affect compatibility with lower-current applications; it only extends the relay's operational envelope.

Q: Are there differences in termination style between these relays?

A: The MY2-GS AC200/220 features Plug In termination only. The MY2-GS-R AC200/220 offers both Plug In and Quick Connect (0.110" / 2.8mm) termination options. Both termination styles are compatible with standard socketable relay bases.

Q: What is the product status difference, and why does it matter?

A: The MY2-GS AC200/220 is classified as obsolete, indicating it is no longer manufactured. The MY2-GS-R AC200/220 is active production status, ensuring consistent availability, supply chain reliability, and manufacturer support for new designs and ongoing maintenance.

Q: Are the electrical operating parameters identical between these relays?

A: Yes. Both relays share identical must-operate voltage (176 VAC), must-release voltage (66 VAC), operate time (20 ms), release time (20 ms), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 70°C). Coil resistance (12.95 kOhms) and coil current (5.3 mA) are also identical, ensuring equivalent circuit behavior.
