Reliable Electrical Switching for Industrial Automation

The Finder 40.61.7.024.1300 provides an effective method of controlling electrical loads through a 24 V DC control signal. When the relay coil is energised, the changeover contact transfers from its normally closed position to its normally open position. When coil power is removed, the contact returns to its normal state, enabling straightforward control of auxiliary circuits and connected equipment.

The Finder 40 Series is widely suited to industrial automation, control panel construction and electronic equipment manufacturing. The 40.61 relay configuration offers a 16 A single changeover contact, providing greater switching capability than many miniature signal relays while retaining a compact physical format.

Its 0.5 W sensitive DC coil is useful for control systems where coil power consumption is an important consideration. The relay can be driven by a suitable electronic interface or controller output, provided that the control circuit is capable of supplying the required operating current and incorporates appropriate protection against coil switching transients.

For applications involving motors, inductive loads, capacitive loads or high inrush currents, the relay must be selected according to the relevant load-specific ratings rather than the resistive AC1 rating alone. Appropriate circuit protection and suppression components can help maintain dependable switching performance and extend contact service life.
