Handler Usage

java

// Initialize handler
OmronHandler handler = new OmronHandler();
PatternRegistry registry = new PatternRegistry();
handler.initializePatterns(registry);

// Check component type
handler.matches("G5V-1-DC5", ComponentType.RELAY_SIGNAL, registry);  // true
handler.matches("B3F-1000", ComponentType.SWITCH_TACT, registry);     // true
handler.matches("EE-SX1041", ComponentType.SENSOR_OPTICAL, registry); // true

// Extract information
handler.extractSeries("G5V-1-DC5");      // "G5V"
handler.extractPackageCode("G5V-1-DC5"); // "SPDT"
handler.getCoilVoltage("G5V-1-DC5");     // "5V DC"
handler.getFamily("G5V-1-DC5");          // "Signal Relay"

// Switch information
handler.getActuationForce("B3F-1000");   // "1.47N"
handler.extractPackageCode("B3F-1000");  // "THT"
handler.extractPackageCode("B3FS-1000"); // "SMD"

Replacement Guidelines

Compatible Series (same voltage/configuration required)

•G5V ↔ G6K (signal relays, different sizes)
•G3MC ↔ G3NA (SSRs, different mounting)
•B3F ↔ B3FS (tact switches, THT vs SMD)

Not Compatible

•Different coil voltages (DC5 ≠ DC12)
•Different contact configurations (SPDT ≠ DPDT)
•Relays and switches (different component types)

Testing

bash

# Run Omron handler tests
mvn test -Dtest=OmronHandlerTest

# Run all handler tests
mvn test -Dtest="*HandlerTest"

Learnings & Quirks

MPN Parsing

•Relay coil voltage is typically the last segment after hyphen (DC5, DC12, DC24)
•Switch force code is the first digit in the variant number
•Microswitch "-F" suffix indicates low force variant

Pattern Matching

•G-series relays use digit after G (G2R, G5V, G6K)
•G3-series are always SSRs (G3MC, G3NA, G3NE)
•B3-series are always tactile switches
•D2F is microswitch, not to be confused with D6F (flow sensor)

Handler Notes

•Handler uses explicit pattern matching in matches() for performance
•Uses Set.of() for getSupportedTypes() (immutable, no duplicates)
•Voltage extraction handles both DC and AC formats
