SH4B-62 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SH4B-62 is a 14-position through-hole relay socket manufactured by IDEC, designed for use with RH Series relays. This socket provides PCB-mounted connectivity with PC pin termination, enabling reliable relay interfacing in electronic assemblies. The product maintains active status with 1011 units in current inventory. Alternative socket models may be required when system design specifications call for different relay series compatibility, alternative sourcing, or inventory availability considerations.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SH4B-62 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Number of Positions: 14 positions (electrical interface requirement)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (PCB assembly compatibility)
• Termination Style: PC Pin (solder connection method)
• Type: Socket (functional category)

The PT14-0 qualifies as a direct substitute based on matching all four critical parameters. While the PT14-0 is manufactured by Omron Automation and Safety and designed for LY Series relays, its electrical and mechanical interface specifications align with the SH4B-62's socket architecture, enabling functional equivalence in applications requiring 14-position through-hole relay socket connectivity.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the SH4B-62 and PT14-0 maintain active product status, ensuring continued manufacturer support and supply chain availability. The PT14-0 carries RoHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, and standard trade classifications (ECCN: EAR99; HTSUS: 8536.69.4040), meeting regulatory requirements for industrial and commercial applications. Selection between these sockets should be based on relay series compatibility requirements—the SH4B-62 for RH Series relays and the PT14-0 for LY Series relays—and organizational sourcing preferences.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the PT14-0 directly replace the SH4B-62 in existing assemblies?

A: The PT14-0 matches the SH4B-62 in electrical position count (14), mounting method (through hole), and termination style (PC pin). Direct mechanical and electrical substitution is possible. However, relay series compatibility must be verified—the SH4B-62 interfaces with RH Series relays, while the PT14-0 interfaces with LY Series relays. Confirm that your relay selection aligns with the intended socket.

Q: What are the critical parameters for relay socket substitution?

A: Four parameters determine socket substitution eligibility: number of positions, mounting type, termination style, and socket type. The SH4B-62 and PT14-0 both specify 14 positions, through-hole mounting, PC pin termination, and socket type, establishing their equivalence as relay socket interfaces.

Q: Are there compliance or regulatory differences between these sockets?

A: The PT14-0 includes documented RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. The SH4B-62 specifications provided do not include explicit compliance documentation. If regulatory compliance documentation is required for your application, verify compliance status with the manufacturer or authorized distributor.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level (MSL) for the SH4B-62?

A: Moisture sensitivity level data for the SH4B-62 is not provided in the available specifications. The PT14-0 specifies MSL 1 (Unlimited). Contact the manufacturer for complete environmental handling requirements for the SH4B-62.
