Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the TQ2SS-L-4.5V-Z and 3-1462037-1 are active products with current manufacturing status. The TQ2SS-L-4.5V-Z is RoHS compliant, while the 3-1462037-1 meets ROHS3 compliance standards. Both parts carry EAR99 ECCN classification and share identical HTSUS coding (8536.41.0020).

The substitute part 3-1462037-1 offers higher AC switching voltage capability (250VAC versus 125VAC) and faster switching times (3 ms versus 4 ms), with greater current inventory availability (2400 units versus 773 units). The substitute part includes hermetic sealing and REACH unaffected status. Coil current and resistance differ between the two parts due to design variations in the substitute manufacturer's implementation.

Selection between these parts should be based on application-specific requirements for switching voltage, coil drive current capability, switching speed, and packaging format preferences.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 3-1462037-1 be used as a direct replacement for the TQ2SS-L-4.5V-Z?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical coil voltage (4.5VDC), contact form (DPDT), current rating (2A), mounting type (surface mount), termination style (gull wing), operating temperature range (-40°C to 85°C), and must-operate voltage (3.38VDC). These parameters define functional compatibility for telecom relay applications.

Q: What are the differences in switching voltage ratings?

A: The TQ2SS-L-4.5V-Z switches 125VAC or 220VDC maximum. The 3-1462037-1 switches 250VAC or 220VDC maximum. The substitute part provides higher AC voltage capability while maintaining identical DC switching voltage.

Q: How do the switching times compare?

A: The TQ2SS-L-4.5V-Z operates and releases in 4 ms each. The 3-1462037-1 operates and releases in 3 ms each. The substitute part provides faster switching response.

Q: Are there differences in coil drive requirements?

A: The TQ2SS-L-4.5V-Z requires 15.6 mA coil current with 289 Ohms resistance. The 3-1462037-1 requires 22.2 mA coil current with 203 Ohms resistance. Circuit design must accommodate the higher coil current demand of the substitute part.

Q: What packaging options are available?

A: The TQ2SS-L-4.5V-Z is supplied in tape & reel (TR) format. The 3-1462037-1 is available in cut tape (CT) and Digi-Reel® formats. Packaging selection depends on assembly equipment and procurement requirements.

Q: Do both parts meet RoHS requirements?

A: Yes. The TQ2SS-L-4.5V-Z is RoHS compliant. The 3-1462037-1 is ROHS3 compliant. Both meet RoHS environmental standards.
