Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MY4IN-GS AC12 is based on the following critical parameters derived from the provided specifications:

  • Base product number alignment (MY4IN series)
  • Coil voltage compatibility (12VAC)
  • Contact form and switching capability (4PDT / 4 Form C)
  • Contact rating and current capacity (6 A)
  • Mounting and termination compatibility (Socketable, Plug In, Quick Connect)
  • Operating voltage range (Must Operate: 9.6 VAC minimum; Must Release: 3.6 VAC maximum)

The MY4IN-GS-R AC12 qualifies as a direct substitute based on these parameters. Both components share the same base product number, identical coil voltage specification, and equivalent electrical characteristics within the defined operating envelope.
