Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MY2-J DC6 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

  • Coil voltage: 6VDC
  • Contact configuration: DPDT (2 Form C)
  • Contact current rating: 5 A
  • Switching voltage capability: 250VAC, 125VDC - Max
  • Mounting type: Socketable
  • Termination style: Plug In
  • Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 70°C
  • Contact material: Silver (Ag)
  • Coil type: Non Latching

The MY2 DC6 (S) meets all these criteria and is identified as a parametric equivalent. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications, with the primary distinction being product status and packaging configuration.
