40.61.7.036.1000 Finder Miniature PCB relay 1pole 16A DC 36V
Finder 40.61.7.036.1000 Series 40 miniature electromechanical power relay with a 36 V DC coil, 16 A nominal contact rating and one changeover contact for PCB-mounted electrical switching in industrial automation and electronic control equipment.
Why Choose the Finder 40.61.7.036.1000 Miniature Power Relay?
The Finder 40.61.7.036.1000 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 where reliable switching and compact component dimensions are important.
Featuring a 36 V DC nominal coil voltage, a single changeover contact (1 CO) and a 16 A nominal contact rating associated with the Finder 40.61 relay type, this component provides an effective interface between low-voltage control electronics and compatible electrical loads. Its electromagnetic switching mechanism enables an independent control circuit to operate the relay contacts while maintaining galvanic separation between the coil and switched circuit.
The Finder 40.61.7.036.1000 belongs to Finder's established miniature power relay family. Its PCB mounting arrangement, compact housing and versatile changeover contact configuration make it suitable for OEM equipment manufacturers, automation engineers and electronic control system designers requiring dependable auxiliary switching.

Reliable 36 V DC Relay Switching for Electronic Control Systems
The Finder 40.61.7.036.1000 operates through an electromagnetic coil that changes the position of its single changeover contact. When the 36 V DC coil is energised, the common contact transfers from the normally closed terminal to the normally open terminal. When the coil supply is removed, the contact returns to its original position, enabling 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 suitable auxiliary power-switching functions. Actual permissible switching loads depend on voltage, load category, inrush current, switching frequency and operating conditions, so the manufacturer's applicable ratings should be observed during equipment design.
