RP411012 General Purpose Relay SPDT 12VDC 8A Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RP411012 is a general purpose relay manufactured by TE Connectivity Potter & Brumfield Relays, classified as a Single Pole Double Throw (SPDT) relay with a 12VDC coil and 8A contact rating. This through-hole mounted relay operates at 400VAC maximum switching voltage and is designed for non-latching applications requiring sealed flux protection. The part is Active in product status with RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected classification. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters are required for circuit redesign, inventory management, or component availability optimization.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the RP411012 are identified based on electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence within the RP II/1 SCHRACK series. The substitution criteria are strictly limited to the following parameters:

• Coil voltage specification (12VDC)
• Contact form configuration (SPDT / 1 Form C)
• Contact current rating (8 A minimum)
• Switching voltage capability (400VAC maximum)
• Mounting technology (Through Hole)
• Coil current draw (44.4 mA)
• Coil resistance (270 Ohms)
• Operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 70°C)
• Contact material composition (Silver Nickel)
• Termination style (PC Pin)
• Environmental sealing (Sealed - Flux Protection)
• Regulatory compliance (RoHS3, REACH unaffected)

Parts meeting all these parameters are classified as parametric equivalents and direct substitutes for circuit-level applications.
