20.23.9.012.4000 Finder step relay 2 phase switch 1 NC+1NO DC 12V
Finder 20.23.9.012.4000 is a 16 A modular step relay with one normally open and one normally closed silver tin oxide contact, a 12 V DC coil and DIN-rail mounting.
Why Choose the Finder 20.23.9.012.4000 Modular Step Relay?
The Finder 20.23.9.012.4000 is a compact and dependable modular step relay designed for impulse-controlled switching in lighting, building automation and electrical distribution applications. As part of the Finder Series 20, it changes contact state whenever its coil receives a momentary control pulse.
Its electromechanical latching operation enables electrical loads to be controlled from multiple momentary push-buttons without requiring the coil to remain continuously energised. A mechanical position indicator and test button support convenient inspection and manual operation during installation, commissioning and maintenance.
With one normally open and one normally closed contact rated at 16 A, a 12 V DC coil and silver tin oxide contact material, the 20.23.9.012.4000 provides versatile and dependable load switching. Its compact 17.4 mm-wide DIN-rail enclosure and screw terminals simplify installation inside distribution boards and control panels.

Efficient Impulse Control for Lighting and Electrical Loads
A modular step relay changes its contact state each time a momentary voltage pulse is applied to the coil. This allows electrical loads to be operated from several push-button locations while avoiding complex conventional multi-way switching arrangements.
The Finder Series 20 is designed for installation in modular distribution equipment. Its latching mechanism, complementary contact arrangement, status indication and manual test facility make the 20.23.9.012.4000 suitable for building-control systems requiring reliable low-voltage impulse operation.
Typical Applications
- Lighting circuits controlled from multiple push-buttons.
- Residential and commercial building automation.
- Stairwell and corridor lighting control.
- Low-voltage control and signalling circuits.
- Electrical distribution boards.
- Industrial control panels.
