Reliable Auxiliary Switching for Electrical Control Systems
Auxiliary contact modules such as the Finder 022.33 provide additional electrical contacts that operate in conjunction with a compatible modular contactor. When the contactor changes state, the auxiliary contacts follow its mechanical operation, allowing external control circuits to monitor or respond to the contactor's switching condition.
The Finder 022.33 incorporates two normally open contacts, enabling two separate auxiliary circuits to close when the associated contactor operates. These contacts can be used for status indication, control interlocking, signalling and automation functions, provided the connected loads remain within the specified electrical ratings.
Its silver-nickel contact construction and compact side-mounted format make it suitable for reliable operation in commercial and industrial electrical installations. The module integrates with compatible Finder Series 22 contactors, supporting efficient panel construction and simplified auxiliary wiring. It is not compatible with the Finder 22.32 two normally closed contactor versions identified by the manufacturer as 22.32.0.xxx.x4x0.
Typical Applications
- Auxiliary switching for Finder Series 22 modular contactors.
- Contactor status indication and monitoring circuits.
- Commercial and industrial lighting control systems.
- Building management and automation installations.
- Electrical distribution boards and control panels.
- Control circuit interlocking and signalling applications.
- Heating, ventilation and air conditioning control systems.
- Pump and motor control circuit signalling.
- Industrial automation and machine control panels.
- Remote switching and electrical equipment status monitoring.
