Why Choose the Finder 22.34.0.048.4320 Modular Contactor?

The Finder 22.34.0.048.4320 is a professional 25 A four-pole modular installation contactor designed for dependable switching of lighting circuits, electrical loads and building automation equipment. Part of the Finder 22 Series, this DIN rail-mounted contactor combines four normally open contacts with a 48 V AC/DC control coil, making it suitable for electrical installations requiring multiple circuits to be operated simultaneously.

Featuring four normally open contacts (4NO), the Finder 22.34.0.048.4320 allows four appropriately rated electrical circuits to be switched from one control signal. Its 25 A contact rating and silver tin oxide (AgSnO2) contact material make it particularly useful for compatible lighting installations and applications involving significant switching inrush currents.

The contactor incorporates a silent AC/DC coil with varistor protection, mechanical and LED status indication, and reinforced insulation between the coil and contacts. Its 35 mm-wide housing occupies approximately two standard DIN rail modules, providing a compact solution for electrical distribution boards, commercial lighting control panels and automation systems.

Reliable Four-Pole Switching for Lighting and Building Automation

The Finder 22.34.0.048.4320 modular contactor provides an effective way to control four electrical circuits from a single 48 V AC/DC command signal. When the coil is energised, all four normally open contacts close, allowing power to reach the connected loads. When the control voltage is removed, the contacts return to their open state.

This four-pole configuration is particularly useful in electrical distribution boards where several circuits must operate together. Examples include grouped commercial lighting, building services equipment and appropriately designed multi-circuit control installations. The contactor can also be incorporated into systems operated by compatible timers, automation controllers and low-voltage control interfaces.

The AgSnO2 contact material is a significant advantage for lighting applications because LED drivers and other electronic lighting equipment can produce high inrush currents during switch-on. However, the 25 A rating must not be treated as a universal LED load rating. Installers should check the manufacturer's applicable lamp-load limits, driver inrush characteristics and the total connected load before selecting the contactor.

The device's silent AC/DC coil is designed to reduce operating noise compared with conventional contactor designs. Its integrated varistor helps suppress voltage transients associated with coil switching, while the mechanical indicator and LED provide convenient visual feedback during commissioning and maintenance.

With a width of just 35 mm, the Finder 22.34 fits neatly into modular electrical distribution equipment. Its DIN rail mounting and screw terminals support practical installation, while reinforced insulation between the coil and contacts helps maintain electrical separation between the control and load circuits.

The contactor is designed for continuous-duty operation, making it suitable for installations where circuits remain energised for extended periods. Its IP20 rating means it should be mounted inside an appropriate electrical enclosure, with installation and protective devices selected according to applicable wiring regulations.

How many contacts does this contactor have?

The Finder 22.34.0.048.4320 has four normally open contacts (4NO). All four contacts close when the coil is energised and return to their open positions when coil power is removed.

What is the rated current of the Finder 22.34.0.048.4320?

The contactor has a 25 A rated operating current. The permissible current for a particular installation depends on the load category and the characteristics of the connected equipment.

Can the Finder 22.34.0.048.4320 switch LED lighting?

Yes. Its silver tin oxide (AgSnO2) contacts are suitable for appropriately rated lighting applications, including compatible LED lighting loads. The total LED driver wattage and inrush current must be checked against the applicable manufacturer ratings.

Does this contactor have a silent coil?

Yes. The Finder 22.34.0.048.4320 uses a silent AC/DC coil, designed to minimise audible operating noise. The coil also includes varistor protection to help suppress switching transients.

Does the Finder 22.34.0.048.4320 have an LED indicator?

Yes. The contactor includes an LED operating indicator and a mechanical contact-position indicator, allowing installers to check the device's operating condition visually.

Is the Finder 22.34.0.048.4320 a latching contactor?

No. It is an electromagnetically operated, non-latching contactor. Its normally open contacts remain closed while the coil is energised and return to their open state when the coil supply is removed.

What contact material is used?

The contactor uses silver tin oxide (AgSnO2) contacts. This material is particularly suited to the manufacturer's specified lighting and high-inrush switching applications.

Can this contactor be controlled by a building automation system?

Yes. A compatible automation controller, timer or switching interface can operate the contactor using a suitably rated 48 V AC/DC output. The control system must be capable of supplying the required coil power.
