Omron MY2-GS DC24 General Purpose Relay - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Omron MY2-GS DC24 is a general purpose relay with DPDT (2 Form C) contact configuration, rated for 5A at 24VDC coil voltage. This socketable relay features a mechanical indicator and is designed for plug-in termination applications. The MY2-GS DC24 is classified as obsolete, making identification of suitable substitute components essential for system maintenance, repair, and new design implementations where equivalent functionality is required.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MY2-GS DC24 is determined by the following critical parameters that must remain consistent:

• Coil voltage: 24VDC
• Contact form: DPDT (2 Form C)
• Coil type: Non Latching
• Mounting type: Socketable
• Termination style: Plug In compatible
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 70°C
• Contact material: Silver (Ag)
• Coil current: 37.7 mA
• Coil resistance: 636 Ohms
• Must operate voltage: 19.2 VDC
• Must release voltage: 2.4 VDC
• Operate and release time: 20 ms each

The MY2-GS-R DC24 qualifies as a direct substitute based on these parameters. While the contact rating increases from 5A to 10A, this represents an enhancement that maintains backward compatibility with the original design specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MY2-GS-R DC24 is the recommended substitute for the obsolete MY2-GS DC24. Both components are manufactured by Omron Automation and Safety and share identical electrical and mechanical specifications for coil voltage, contact configuration, timing characteristics, and operating temperature range.

The MY2-GS-R DC24 offers the advantage of active product status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability. The component meets ROHS3 compliance, representing current regulatory standards. The increased contact rating of 10A provides enhanced capability while maintaining full backward compatibility with applications originally designed for the 5A rated MY2-GS DC24.

The termination style of the MY2-GS-R DC24 includes both standard Plug In and Quick Connect - 0.110" (2.8mm) options, providing flexibility in installation methods while maintaining socketable mounting compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MY2-GS-R DC24 directly replace the MY2-GS DC24 in existing applications?

A: Yes. The MY2-GS-R DC24 maintains identical coil voltage (24VDC), contact form (DPDT), coil current (37.7 mA), coil resistance (636 Ohms), operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 70°C), and timing characteristics (20 ms operate and release times). The socketable mounting and plug-in termination are compatible with the original design.

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

A: The MY2-GS-R DC24 provides a higher current capacity while maintaining all other electrical and mechanical parameters. This enhancement ensures the substitute can handle the original application requirements and provides additional margin for higher-current applications.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the two parts?

A: The MY2-GS DC24 is supplied in standard packaging, while the MY2-GS-R DC24 is supplied in bulk packaging. Both maintain identical physical dimensions and socketable form factor for installation compatibility.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to the MY2-GS-R DC24?

A: The MY2-GS-R DC24 is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements for electronic components.

Q: Are the termination options compatible?

A: The MY2-GS DC24 features standard Plug In termination. The MY2-GS-R DC24 offers both Plug In and Quick Connect - 0.110" (2.8mm) termination options. Standard plug-in compatibility is maintained for direct substitution.
