Reliable Electrical Switching for Industrial Automation

The Finder 40.61.7.048.1301 provides a practical interface between 48 V DC control circuits and electrical switching applications. 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 relay returns to its normal contact state, enabling straightforward operation of auxiliary equipment and control circuits.

The Finder 40 Series is designed for industrial automation, control panel construction and electronic equipment applications where compact electromechanical switching is required. The 40.61 configuration offers a 16 A single changeover contact, providing switching capability for appropriately rated power and control loads while maintaining a miniature relay footprint.

Its 0.5 W sensitive DC coil supports efficient operation from compatible control electronics. This makes the relay suitable for applications where control power consumption, compact construction and electrical separation between control and load circuits are important design considerations.

For dependable performance, the connected electrical load should be assessed against the applicable switching category and relay ratings. Inductive loads, motors and equipment with high inrush currents may require additional contact protection or alternative switching arrangements. The coil driver must also provide the required operating voltage and current, with suitable suppression where necessary.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial automation and machinery control.
  • 48 V DC electronic control systems.
  • PCB-mounted electrical switching circuits.
  • OEM machinery and electronic equipment.
  • Electrical control panels and relay interfaces.
  • Auxiliary switching for contactors and control devices.
  • Building automation and equipment management systems.
  • Power management and electrical load control.
  • Embedded control modules and electronic assemblies.
  • Industrial monitoring and auxiliary equipment control.
