Why Choose the Finder 06K.12 Normally Closed Auxiliary Contact Module?

The Finder 06K.12 is a compact and reliable single normally closed (1 NC) auxiliary contact module designed for use with compatible Finder 6K Series industrial contactors. Featuring an AC-15 switching current rating of 2 A at 400 V AC, this accessory provides an additional control and signalling contact for industrial automation, machinery control and electrical distribution applications.

As part of the Finder 6K Series industrial contactor accessory range, the 06K.12 is specifically developed for compatibility with Finder 6K.13 and 6K.14 contactors. Its mechanically linked contact arrangement enables the auxiliary contact to operate in conjunction with the main contactor, providing a practical solution for electrical interlocking, contactor status indication and control circuit feedback.

With a 1 NC contact configuration, a 10 A conventional thermal current rating and silver-nickel (AgNi) contact material, the Finder 06K.12 combines dependable auxiliary switching with compact construction. Its screw terminal connections and dedicated contactor mounting arrangement make it suitable for integration into industrial electrical control panels and automation equipment.

Reliable Auxiliary Switching for Industrial Contactor Control

Auxiliary contact modules such as the Finder 06K.12 extend the functionality of industrial contactors by providing additional contacts for control, signalling and monitoring. The module operates mechanically with the associated contactor, allowing external control circuits to respond to changes in the contactor's operating state.

The normally closed contact is closed when the associated contactor is in its normal de-energised position and opens when the contactor operates. This makes the Finder 06K.12 particularly useful for electrical interlocking, control circuit feedback and contactor status indication. Its mechanically linked contact arrangement supports coordinated operation with the main contactor mechanism.

Designed for the Finder 6K.13 and 6K.14 industrial contactor ranges, the 06K.12 provides an efficient way to introduce an additional normally closed control contact without installing a separate auxiliary relay. The AgNi contact material, screw terminal connections and compact module construction support reliable integration into industrial automation and electrical control systems.

Typical Applications

  • Auxiliary switching for Finder 6K.13 and 6K.14 industrial contactors.
  • Electrical interlocking in motor control circuits.
  • Contactor status indication and feedback signalling.
  • Industrial automation and machinery control systems.
  • Motor starter control panels and electrical assemblies.
  • Manufacturing and production machinery.
  • Industrial process control installations.
  • Electrical distribution and control cabinets.
  • Conveyor and material handling control systems.
  • Control circuits requiring a mechanically linked normally closed contact.
