PT2L7LC4 General Purpose Relay DPDT 24VDC

Part Overview

The PT2L7LC4 is a general purpose relay manufactured by TE Connectivity Potter & Brumfield Relays, classified as a DPDT (Double Pole Double Throw, 2 Form C) relay with a 24VDC coil. This relay is designed for DIN rail mounting and is rated for 12A switching capacity at a maximum of 400VAC. The part is currently active in production with 1,146 pieces available in new original stock.

Substitute parts become necessary when inventory constraints occur, when specific mounting or delivery requirements must be met, or when design flexibility allows for functionally equivalent alternatives that meet all electrical and mechanical specifications.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The PT2L7LC4 has one parametric equivalent substitute: PT2S7LC4. This substitution is valid based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching across all critical specifications.

The substitution criteria are based on the following key parameters that must remain identical:

  • Coil voltage: 24VDC
  • Contact form: DPDT (2 Form C)
  • Contact rating: 12 A
  • Maximum switching voltage: 400VAC
  • Mounting type: DIN Rail
  • Coil current: 30.8 mA
  • Coil resistance: 777 Ohms
  • Must operate voltage: 18 VDC
  • Must release voltage: 2.4 VDC
  • Operating temperature range: -40°C ~ 70°C
  • Contact material: Silver Nickel (AgNi)
  • Termination style: Screw Terminal
  • RoHS compliance: ROHS3 Compliant

Both parts belong to the PT series from TE Connectivity Potter & Brumfield Relays and share identical electrical performance characteristics, allowing direct substitution in applications where the PT2L7LC4 is specified.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the PT2L7LC4 and PT2S7LC4 are active production parts from TE Connectivity Potter & Brumfield Relays with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on availability and supply chain requirements.

The PT2L7LC4 currently has 1,146 pieces in new original stock, while the PT2S7LC4 has 789 pieces available. Both parts carry ROHS3 compliance and MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited), making them suitable for standard industrial applications without moisture sensitivity constraints.

The difference between these part numbers (L versus S designation) reflects internal TE Connectivity product line differentiation but does not affect functional equivalence. Both parts are suitable for direct substitution in 24VDC DPDT relay applications requiring 12A switching capacity and DIN rail mounting.
