40.61.7.012.1300 Finder Miniature PCB relay 1pole 16A DC 12V

Why Choose the Finder 40.61.7.012.1300 Miniature Power Relay?

The Finder 40.61.7.012.1300 is a compact electromechanical miniature power relay from the Finder Series 40, designed for dependable electrical switching in industrial automation, electronic control equipment and machinery applications. Its space-efficient construction makes it suitable for printed circuit board assemblies requiring reliable control of electrical loads.

Featuring a 12 V DC nominal coil voltage, a single changeover contact (1 CO) and a 16 A nominal contact rating, this relay provides an effective interface between low-voltage control electronics and compatible electrical circuits. Its electromagnetic switching mechanism enables a control signal to operate a separate load circuit while maintaining galvanic separation between the coil and contacts.

The Finder 40.61.7.012.1300 belongs to Finder's established miniature relay range and offers a practical solution for OEM equipment, electronic control boards and industrial switching applications. Its compact PCB mounting format and versatile changeover contact arrangement support efficient integration into modern electrical and electronic control systems.

Key Advantages

• 12 V DC nominal coil suitable for compatible low-voltage control systems.
• 16 A nominal contact rating for switching suitable electrical loads.
• Single changeover contact (1 CO) supports normally open and normally closed switching functions.

• Useful for industrial automation, machinery control and electronic equipment applications.
• Monostable operation automatically returns the contacts to their normal position when the coil is de-energised.

Key Features

• Finder Series 40 miniature power relay.
• 12 V DC nominal coil voltage.
• 16 A nominal contact current for the 40.61 relay type.
• 1 CO (SPDT) changeover contact configuration.
• Electromechanical switching technology.
• Normally open and normally closed contact functionality.
• Compact PCB mounting format.
• Galvanic separation between the coil and contact circuits.
• Monostable, non-latching operation.
• Suitable for integration into compatible industrial and electronic control assemblies.

Reliable 12 V DC Relay Switching for Electronic Control Systems

The Finder 40.61.7.012.1300 operates using an electromagnetic coil that changes the position of its single changeover contact. When the 12 V DC coil is energised, the common contact transfers from the normally closed terminal to the normally open terminal. Removing the coil supply allows the contact to return to its original position, providing straightforward control of compatible electrical circuits.

The Finder Series 40 is designed for applications requiring compact construction, dependable switching and efficient integration into electronic equipment. The 40.61 relay type offers a 16 A nominal contact rating, making it useful for compatible power-switching and auxiliary control applications. Actual permissible loads depend on switching voltage, load category, inrush current and operating conditions, so the appropriate manufacturer ratings should be observed during circuit design.
