Why Choose the Finder 32.21.7.048.2300 Miniature PCB Relay?

The Finder 32.21.7.048.2300 is a compact, high-performance 48 V DC miniature PCB relay designed for reliable electrical switching in industrial automation, electronic control equipment and printed circuit board assemblies. Part of the Finder Series 32 range, this electromagnetic relay combines a sensitive DC coil with a single normally open contact, providing an efficient solution for controlling electrical loads from low-power electronic circuits.

Featuring a single-pole single-throw normally open (SPST-NO / 1 Form A) contact configuration, the Finder 32.21.7.048.2300 provides straightforward on/off switching. Its contacts are rated at 6 A at 250 V AC for resistive loads, while the 48 V DC coil consumes approximately 200 mW, making it suitable for compact electronic control systems where low coil power consumption is important.

Designed for PCB through-hole mounting, this miniature relay features a compact housing measuring approximately 20 × 10 × 10.7 mm. Its wash-tight construction, wide operating temperature range and dependable electromagnetic operation make it a practical choice for OEM electronics, industrial control boards and automated equipment.

Efficient Normally Open Switching for Electronic Control Systems

The Finder 32.21.7.048.2300 uses an electromagnetic coil to operate a normally open contact. When the specified 48 V DC is applied to the coil, the relay energises and closes its contact, allowing current to flow through the connected load. When the coil is de-energised, the contact returns to its normally open position, interrupting the switched circuit.

Unlike changeover relays that provide both normally open and normally closed outputs, the SPST-NO configuration is intended for applications requiring a single switched output. This makes the relay particularly suitable for enabling electrical loads, activating auxiliary equipment and controlling circuits where a straightforward on/off switching function is required.

The relay's 200 mW sensitive DC coil allows operation from appropriately designed low-power control circuitry, while its 6 A resistive AC switching rating provides useful load-handling capability in a compact PCB-mounted package. The wash-tight housing and through-hole solder terminals support integration into professionally manufactured electronic assemblies. Appropriate driver circuitry, coil suppression and contact protection should be selected according to the application.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial electronic control boards.
  • PLC output interfaces and auxiliary switching circuits.
  • OEM machinery and equipment controls.
  • Building automation and control systems.
  • Electronic power supply switching circuits.
  • Low-power control of appropriately rated electrical loads.
  • Control panel PCB assemblies.
  • Electronic enable and interlocking circuits.
  • Instrumentation and monitoring equipment.
  • Embedded electronic control systems.
  • Industrial automation equipment and electronic modules.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Finder 32.21.7.048.2300 used for?

The Finder 32.21.7.048.2300 is a miniature electromagnetic PCB relay used to switch electrical loads from electronic control circuits. Typical applications include industrial control boards, automation equipment, machinery controls and OEM electronic assemblies.

What coil voltage does the Finder 32.21.7.048.2300 require?

The relay has a 48 V DC nominal coil voltage, with a nominal coil resistance of 11.52 kΩ and power consumption of approximately 200 mW. The nominal coil current is approximately 4 mA.

What is the contact rating of the Finder 32.21.7.048.2300?

The relay has a rated switching current of 6 A at 250 V AC for resistive loads. It is also specified for 3 A at 30 V DC under resistive loading conditions. Inductive, capacitive and other loads require separate assessment against the manufacturer's switching specifications.

Does the Finder 32.21.7.048.2300 have normally open or changeover contacts?

The Finder 32.21.7.048.2300 has a single-pole normally open (SPST-NO) contact configuration. Its contact closes when the coil is energised and opens when the coil is de-energised. It does not provide a normally closed changeover output.

What is the difference between Finder 32.21.7.048.2300 and 32.21.7.048.2000?

The main difference is the contact configuration. The 32.21.7.048.2300 has a single normally open (SPST-NO) contact, while the 32.21.7.048.2000 has a single changeover (SPDT) contact. Both use a nominal 48 V DC coil, but their PCB terminal arrangements and switching functions differ.

How is the Finder 32.21.7.048.2300 mounted?

The relay is designed for PCB through-hole mounting using solder terminals. It is installed directly onto a compatible printed circuit board rather than a conventional DIN rail relay socket.

What is the operating temperature range of the Finder 32.21.7.048.2300?

The relay has a specified operating temperature range of -40 to +85 °C, making it suitable for a range of industrial and electronic equipment environments when operated within its electrical and environmental ratings.
