SM2S-05C Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SM2S-05C is an 8-position DIN rail relay socket manufactured by IDEC, designed for use with RM Series relays. This socket features finger-safe (IP20) terminals with screw terminal connections, enabling secure mounting on standard DIN rail installations. The product is currently active and maintains full inventory availability. Equivalent and substitute parts are identified to support procurement flexibility, supply chain continuity, and system integration requirements where direct part availability may be constrained.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SM2S-05C is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Number of Positions: 8 positions (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: DIN Rail (exact match required)
• Termination Style: Screw Terminal (exact match required)
• Type: Socket (exact match required)
• Regulatory Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected status

The substitute part 1415526-1 (TE Connectivity Potter & Brumfield Relays) meets all mandatory electrical and mechanical parameters. Both parts are classified as 8-position DIN rail relay sockets with screw terminal connections and maintain equivalent regulatory compliance certifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the SM2S-05C and 1415526-1 are active products with equivalent regulatory compliance. Selection between these parts should be based on:

• Availability: Current inventory levels and lead time requirements
• Series Compatibility: SM2S-05C is designated for RM Series relays; 1415526-1 is designated for PT, PTH, and KHA Series relays
• Compliance Verification: Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, suitable for regulated applications
• Supply Chain Requirements: Both parts carry EAR99 classification and standard HTSUS coding

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1415526-1 directly replace the SM2S-05C?

A: Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications: 8-position DIN rail socket with screw terminal connections. Compatibility depends on relay series requirements. The SM2S-05C is specified for RM Series relays, while 1415526-1 is specified for PT, PTH, and KHA Series relays. Verify relay series compatibility before substitution.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: Both parts are supplied in bulk packaging. No packaging format differences are specified in the technical data.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory requirements?

A: Yes. Both SM2S-05C and 1415526-1 are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and classified under EAR99 export control with identical HTSUS coding (8536.69.8000).

Q: What is the significance of the finger-safe (IP20) terminal feature?

A: The IP20 rating indicates protection against contact with fingers and objects larger than 12mm. This feature is specified for the SM2S-05C. Verify whether the 1415526-1 includes equivalent terminal protection for your application requirements.

Q: Are moisture sensitivity levels a consideration for substitution?

A: The SM2S-05C lists MSL as not applicable. The 1415526-1 specifies MSL 1 (unlimited). Both ratings indicate suitability for standard industrial environments without moisture-related constraints.
