SZX-SMB-14P Relay Socket Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SZX-SMB-14P is a 14-position through-hole relay socket manufactured by Honeywell Sensing and Productivity Solutions, designed for use with SZR-MY series relays. This component is classified as obsolete, making identification of functionally equivalent alternatives essential for ongoing maintenance, repair, and new design applications where legacy compatibility is required.

The socket features PC pin termination and through-hole mounting, providing a standardized interface for relay connection in industrial control and automation systems. Due to its obsolete status, sourcing equivalent components from active product lines ensures supply chain continuity and long-term availability.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for relay sockets is determined by strict alignment of the following parameters:

Critical Matching Parameters:

• Number of Positions: 14
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Termination Style: PC Pin
• Type: Socket
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)
• RoHS Compliance Status
• ECCN and HTSUS Classification

The PY14-02 manufactured by Omron Automation and Safety meets all critical parameters required for functional equivalence. Both components share identical electrical and mechanical specifications for position count, mounting configuration, and termination method. Both are classified under the same HTSUS code (8536.69.4040) and ECCN designation (EAR99), confirming regulatory alignment.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitute: PY14-02 (Omron Automation and Safety)

The PY14-02 is the qualified equivalent for SZX-SMB-14P applications. Selection rationale is based on the following factors:

Compliance Alignment: Both components maintain RoHS compliance. The PY14-02 carries ROHS3 certification, representing current regulatory compliance standards, while the SZX-SMB-14P holds RoHS Compliant status. Both satisfy environmental and hazardous substance restrictions.

Product Status: The PY14-02 maintains active product status with 2200 units in current inventory, ensuring reliable supply availability. The SZX-SMB-14P is classified as obsolete with limited remaining inventory (749 units), making transition to the active equivalent necessary for long-term supply security.

Regulatory Classification: Identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.4040) codes confirm that both components fall under the same export control and tariff classifications, eliminating regulatory barriers to substitution.

Electrical and Mechanical Specifications: All critical parameters—14-position configuration, through-hole mounting, PC pin termination, and MSL rating—are identical between components, confirming functional interchangeability in relay socket applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can PY14-02 be used as a direct replacement for SZX-SMB-14P in existing designs?

A: Yes. The PY14-02 meets all critical electrical and mechanical parameters: 14 positions, through-hole mounting, PC pin termination, and identical MSL rating. Both components are classified under the same HTSUS and ECCN codes, confirming functional equivalence.

Q: What is the difference between RoHS Compliant and ROHS3 Compliant?

A: RoHS Compliant indicates adherence to the original Restriction of Hazardous Substances directive. ROHS3 Compliant indicates compliance with the current version of the directive (Directive 2011/65/EU as amended). Both certifications satisfy hazardous substance restrictions; ROHS3 represents the current regulatory standard.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns when substituting PY14-02 for SZX-SMB-14P?

A: No compatibility concerns exist based on provided specifications. Both components are 14-position relay sockets with identical mounting type, termination style, and moisture sensitivity ratings. Physical and electrical compatibility is confirmed.

Q: Why is SZX-SMB-14P classified as obsolete?

A: Product status reflects manufacturer discontinuation. The SZX-SMB-14P is no longer in active production. The PY14-02 serves as the active equivalent from Omron's product line.

Q: What is the inventory status for each component?

A: SZX-SMB-14P: 749 units in stock (obsolete status). PY14-02: 2200 units in stock (active product). The PY14-02 offers superior supply availability for new orders and ongoing requirements.

Q: Do both components share the same series compatibility?

A: SZX-SMB-14P is designated for SZR-MY series relays. PY14-02 is designated for MY4/MY2K relays. Both are compatible with MY-series relay families, confirming functional interchangeability in relay socket applications.

Q: Are there REACH compliance differences between the two components?

A: PY14-02 carries explicit REACH Unaffected status. SZX-SMB-14P does not list REACH status in provided specifications. REACH Unaffected designation confirms that the component is not subject to REACH registration requirements, providing additional regulatory clarity for the substitute part.
