Why Choose the Finder 26.02.8.024.4000 Impulse Relay?

The Finder 26.02.8.024.4000 is a compact electromechanical impulse relay designed for controlling lighting circuits from one or more push-button switches. Part of the Finder Series 26 impulse relay range, it provides a practical solution for residential and commercial lighting installations requiring convenient switching from multiple locations.

Unlike a conventional contactor, an impulse relay uses a mechanically maintained switching mechanism that changes contact state when a control pulse is applied. This allows lighting circuits to be switched on and off using momentary push-buttons without continuously energising the operating coil. The result is a convenient and energy-efficient method of controlling lighting installations.

Featuring a 24 V AC operating coil and a two-contact switching arrangement, the Finder 26.02.8.024.4000 is designed for installation in compatible electrical mounting boxes and building wiring systems. Its compact construction makes it particularly useful for lighting automation and multi-point switching applications.

Key Advantages

  • Compact electromechanical impulse relay for lighting control applications.
  • 24 V AC operating coil for compatible low-voltage control circuits.
  • Two-contact switching arrangement for lighting control installations.
  • Allows lighting to be operated from multiple momentary push-button switches.
  • Mechanically maintained contact position eliminates the need for continuous coil energisation.
  • Compact construction suitable for installation in compatible electrical mounting boxes.
  • Electromechanical switching provides straightforward integration into conventional building wiring systems.
  • Suitable for residential, commercial and building automation applications.

Key Features

  • Finder Series 26 impulse relay.
  • 24 V AC nominal coil voltage.
  • Two-contact switching mechanism.
  • Electromechanical impulse-operated switching.
  • Mechanically maintained contact position between control pulses.
  • Momentary push-button control for lighting circuits.
  • No continuous coil supply required to maintain the selected switching state.
  • Compact design for installation in compatible electrical mounting boxes.
  • Suitable for multiple control points connected to the same lighting circuit.
  • Designed for fixed electrical installations and building lighting control.

Reliable Impulse Switching for Lighting Control

Impulse relays such as the Finder 26.02.8.024.4000 provide a convenient alternative to conventional multi-way lighting switch arrangements. Instead of requiring dedicated two-way and intermediate switches, the lighting circuit can be operated using momentary push-buttons connected to the relay's control circuit.

When a suitable 24 V AC control pulse is applied, the relay's electromagnetic mechanism changes the switching state. Its mechanical latching arrangement maintains the selected contact position after the control pulse ends, so the operating coil does not need to remain energised while the lighting circuit is switched on.

The Finder Series 26 is developed for compact lighting control installations where straightforward wiring, multiple switching positions and dependable electromechanical operation are important. Its design makes it suitable for electricians and building automation installers working with conventional push-button lighting systems.

Typical Applications

  • Residential lighting control systems.
  • Staircase and corridor lighting installations.
  • Multi-point lighting control using momentary push-buttons.
  • Commercial office lighting circuits.
  • Hotels and hospitality lighting installations.
  • Apartment buildings and communal areas.
  • Building lighting automation systems.
  • Electrical installations requiring mechanically maintained switching.
  • Lighting circuits controlled from several locations.
  • Compact electrical control installations using low-voltage control circuits.
