Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the MY2N-GS AC24 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Coil Voltage: 24VAC (must match exactly)
• Contact Form: DPDT (2 Form C) (must match exactly)
• Mounting Type: Socketable (must match exactly)
• Coil Current: 46 mA (must match exactly)
• Coil Type: Non Latching (must match exactly)
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 70°C (must match or exceed)
• Contact Material: Silver (Ag) (must match exactly)
• Coil Resistance: 180 Ohms (must match exactly)
• Must Operate Voltage: 19.2 VAC (must match exactly)
• Must Release Voltage: 7.2 VAC (must match exactly)
• Operate Time: 20 ms (must match exactly)
• Release Time: 20 ms (must match exactly)

The MY2N-GS-R AC24 qualifies as a manufacturer-recommended substitute. While the contact rating increases from 5A to 10A, all other critical electrical and mechanical parameters remain identical or compatible, and the socketable mounting configuration is preserved.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MY2N-GS-R AC24 is the manufacturer-recommended substitute for the obsolete MY2N-GS AC24. Selection of the MY2N-GS-R AC24 is supported by the following factors:

• Product Status: The substitute part is classified as Active, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain support compared to the obsolete main part.
• Compliance: The MY2N-GS-R AC24 meets ROHS3 compliance requirements, providing enhanced environmental and regulatory alignment.
• Electrical Compatibility: All critical electrical parameters—coil voltage, contact form, coil current, timing specifications, and voltage thresholds—are identical between the main part and substitute.
• Mechanical Compatibility: Both parts maintain socketable mounting configuration with plug-in termination, ensuring direct replacement capability in existing socket installations.
• Enhanced Contact Rating: The increase in contact rating from 5A to 10A provides additional operational margin without compromising any other electrical or mechanical characteristics.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MY2N-GS-R AC24 be used as a direct replacement for the MY2N-GS AC24?

A: Yes. The MY2N-GS-R AC24 is the manufacturer-recommended substitute. Both parts share identical coil voltage (24VAC), contact form (DPDT), mounting type (socketable), and all critical electrical parameters. The substitute part is compatible with existing socket installations.

Q: What is the difference between the MY2N-GS AC24 and MY2N-GS-R AC24?

A: The primary differences are product status and contact rating. The MY2N-GS AC24 is obsolete with a 5A contact rating, while the MY2N-GS-R AC24 is active with a 10A contact rating. All other electrical and mechanical specifications remain identical.

Q: Does the higher contact rating of the MY2N-GS-R AC24 affect compatibility?

A: No. A higher contact rating indicates greater current-carrying capacity and does not negatively impact compatibility. The substitute part can safely handle applications designed for the original 5A rating.

Q: Are there termination differences between these parts?

A: The MY2N-GS AC24 features plug-in termination only. The MY2N-GS-R AC24 offers both plug-in and quick connect (0.110" / 2.8mm) termination options. Existing installations using plug-in sockets remain fully compatible.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to the substitute part?

A: The MY2N-GS-R AC24 meets ROHS3 compliance and is REACH unaffected, providing current regulatory alignment for new installations and replacements.

Q: Are the operating temperature ranges identical?

A: Yes. Both the MY2N-GS AC24 and MY2N-GS-R AC24 operate across the same temperature range of -40°C to 70°C.
