40.61.7.012.2021 Finder Miniature PCB relay 1pole 16A DC 12V

Why Choose the Finder 40.61.7.012.2021 Miniature Power Relay?

The Finder 40.61.7.012.2021 is a compact miniature electromagnetic power relay designed for switching electrical loads in industrial automation, electronic equipment and control systems. Belonging to the established Finder 40 Series, this relay combines a single changeover contact arrangement with a 12 V DC coil and a space-saving construction suitable for printed circuit board applications.

The Finder 40.61 relay family is designed to provide dependable switching in electrical and electronic control circuits. Its single-pole changeover (SPDT / 1 CO) contact allows one circuit to switch between normally open and normally closed connections, making it suitable for control signal routing, equipment operation and load switching.

Featuring a 16 A nominal contact current rating associated with the Finder 40.61 range, the 40.61.7.012.2021 offers a compact solution for applications requiring a 12 V DC control interface. The relay is suitable for integration into electronic assemblies and industrial control equipment where reliable electromagnetic switching and efficient use of installation space are important.

Reliable Electromagnetic Switching for Industrial Control Systems

Electromagnetic relays allow a control circuit to operate a separate electrical circuit through mechanically actuated contacts. The Finder 40.61.7.012.2021 uses this switching principle to provide a practical interface between a 12 V DC control supply and an external load or signalling circuit.

The single changeover contact enables the relay to select between two electrical paths, making it useful for control logic, equipment interfacing and switching applications. The 40.61 family's 16 A nominal contact rating provides useful switching capability, although the permissible load must always be assessed according to the operating voltage, AC or DC load characteristics, inrush current and switching duty.

The compact construction of the Finder 40 Series makes it particularly suitable for PCB-based equipment and space-conscious industrial control designs. The specific coil characteristics, contact material and variant-specific switching requirements should be checked when designing the control circuit to ensure compatibility with the exact 40.61.7.012.2021 configuration.
