UB2-5NE Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The UB2-5NE is a general purpose relay manufactured by KEMET, classified as a DPDT (Double Pole Double Throw, 2 Form C) surface mount component. This relay operates at 5VDC coil voltage with a 1A contact rating and is designed for non-latching switching applications. The part is currently active in production status with 961 pieces available in inventory.

Substitute parts are identified when alternative components maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications, enabling direct replacement in circuit designs without modification to PCB layouts or control logic.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the UB2-5NE are identified based on strict equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The substitution logic is based on the following key parameters that must remain identical:

  • Coil Voltage: 5VDC
  • Contact Form: DPDT (2 Form C)
  • Contact Rating (Current): 1 A
  • Switching Voltage: 250VAC, 220VDC - Max
  • Coil Current: 20 mA
  • Coil Type: Non Latching
  • Mounting Type: Surface Mount
  • Termination Style: Gull Wing
  • Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 85°C
  • Contact Material: Silver Alloy, Gold Alloy
  • Coil Resistance: 250 Ohms
  • RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
  • Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

Parts that maintain all these specifications are classified as parametric equivalents and are suitable for direct substitution in applications requiring the UB2-5NE.
