40.61.8.060.1000 Finder Miniature PCB relay 1pole 16A 60V

Why Choose the Finder 40.61.8.060.1000 Miniature Power Relay?

The Finder 40.61.8.060.1000 is a compact electromechanical miniature power relay from the Finder Series 40, designed for reliable electrical switching in industrial automation, electronic control equipment and machinery applications. Its space-efficient construction makes it suitable for printed circuit board assemblies requiring dependable switching and straightforward integration.

Featuring a 60 V AC nominal coil voltage and a single changeover contact (1 CO), this relay provides an effective method of controlling an independent electrical circuit through an AC control signal. Its electromechanical switching mechanism provides galvanic separation between the coil and contact circuits, supporting practical control and auxiliary switching applications.

The Finder 40.61.8.060.1000 belongs to Finder's established 40.61 miniature power relay family, which features a 16 A nominal contact rating. Its compact PCB mounting format and versatile changeover contact arrangement make it suitable for OEM equipment manufacturers, automation engineers and electronic control system designers.

Reliable 60 V AC Relay Switching for Industrial Control Systems

The Finder 40.61.8.060.1000 operates through an electromagnetic coil that changes the position of its single changeover contact. When the 60 V AC 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.
