Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MGN2C-AC24 manufactured by Omron Automation and Safety is a direct functional equivalent to the obsolete PRD-11AG0-24. Both components share identical electrical specifications for coil voltage, contact form, contact rating, and must-operate voltage.

The MGN2C-AC24 carries an Active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain continuity. Both parts maintain RoHS compliance and carry identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications, supporting regulatory and trade compliance requirements.

The MGN2C-AC24 demonstrates enhanced switching voltage capability (600VAC, 28VDC maximum versus 240VAC nominal) and an extended operating temperature range (-45°C to 80°C versus -55°C to 45°C). The substitute part features Class F coil insulation compared to Class B in the original part, providing improved thermal performance. Coil current is marginally lower (396 mA versus 410 mA), and coil resistance is comparable (11.5 Ohms versus 12 Ohms).

For applications operating within the original temperature range of -55°C to 45°C, the MGN2C-AC24 provides equivalent or superior performance across all specified parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MGN2C-AC24 be used as a direct replacement for the PRD-11AG0-24?

A: Yes. Both relays share identical coil voltage (24VAC), contact form (DPDT), contact rating (30A), mounting type (chassis mount), termination style (screw terminal), and must-operate voltage (20.4 VAC). These parameters define functional equivalence for general purpose relay applications.

Q: What are the differences between these two relays?

A: The MGN2C-AC24 features a higher maximum switching voltage (600VAC, 28VDC versus 240VAC nominal), an extended operating temperature range (-45°C to 80°C versus -55°C to 45°C), Class F coil insulation (versus Class B), and slightly faster operate time (30 ms versus 40 ms). Coil current and resistance are comparable.

Q: Does the MGN2C-AC24 maintain the same packaging and terminal configuration?

A: Yes. Both relays use chassis mount configuration with screw terminal connections, ensuring mechanical and electrical compatibility in existing installations.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The PRD-11AG0-24 is ROHS3 compliant, and the MGN2C-AC24 is RoHS compliant. Both meet regulatory requirements for hazardous substance restrictions.

Q: What is the inventory status of these parts?

A: The PRD-11AG0-24 is obsolete with 952 pieces currently in stock. The MGN2C-AC24 is active with 870 pieces in stock, providing ongoing availability for new applications and replacements.

Q: Are there any temperature range limitations when substituting the MGN2C-AC24?

A: The MGN2C-AC24 operates across -45°C to 80°C. Applications requiring operation below -45°C fall outside the substitute part's specified range. The original PRD-11AG0-24 operates to -55°C, providing extended low-temperature capability.
