Reliable Electrical Switching for Industrial Motor Control

Industrial contactors such as the Finder 6K.14.9.024.4718 provide electrically controlled switching of power circuits using an electromagnetic operating mechanism. When the 24 V DC control coil is energised, the normally open contacts close and the normally closed contact opens. When the coil is de-energised, the contacts return to their normal positions, allowing connected electrical equipment to be controlled remotely.

The Finder 6K Series is designed for industrial applications requiring reliable electrical switching and integration with automation equipment. Its compact DIN rail format, durable contact materials and flexible contact configuration make it suitable for motor starters, industrial machinery and electrical distribution assemblies. When combined with correctly selected overload relays, protective devices and control components, the contactor can form part of a complete industrial motor control system.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial three-phase motor control and motor starter assemblies.
  • Pump control systems and water treatment installations.
  • Industrial compressors and processing machinery.
  • Electrical distribution panels and switching cabinets.
  • Power generators and backup generator control systems.
  • Heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) equipment.
  • Conveyor systems and material handling machinery.
  • Manufacturing automation and production equipment.
  • Industrial machinery requiring remote electromagnetic switching.
  • OEM electrical control panels and automation installations.
