40.61.9.005.1000 Finder Miniature PCB relay 1pole 16A DC 5V

Why Choose the Finder 40.61.9.005.1000 Miniature PCB Relay?

The Finder 40.61.9.005.1000 is a compact 16 A miniature electromechanical relay with a 5 V DC coil, designed for switching electrical loads in electronic control systems, industrial automation equipment and printed circuit board assemblies. As part of the Finder Series 40 miniature relay range, it combines reliable switching performance with a space-efficient design suitable for OEM equipment and electronic control applications.

Featuring a single changeover contact (SPDT / 1 CO), the relay enables a control circuit to switch between normally closed and normally open contact paths. Its monostable operation ensures that the contacts return to their normal positions when the coil is de-energised, making it suitable for automatic switching, signal interfacing and equipment control.

With a 16 A rated contact current, 5 V DC coil and PCB mounting configuration, the Finder 40.61.9.005.1000 offers a practical solution for electronic circuit designers, automation engineers and equipment manufacturers requiring dependable electromechanical switching in compact assemblies.

Key Advantages

• Compact 16 A miniature power relay for electronic switching applications.
• 5 V DC operating coil suitable for compatible low-voltage control circuits.
• Single changeover contact provides flexible normally open and normally closed switching.
• PCB mounting design supports integration into electronic assemblies.
• Monostable operation automatically restores the contact position when coil power is removed.
• Electromechanical switching provides galvanic isolation between the coil and contact circuits.
• Compact construction helps conserve space in control electronics and OEM equipment.
• Suitable for industrial automation, appliance control and electronic switching systems.

Key Features

• Finder Series 40 miniature PCB relay.
• 16 A rated contact current.
• 5 V DC nominal coil voltage.
• SPDT (1 Form C) contact configuration.
• One changeover contact with normally open and normally closed switching paths.
• 250 V AC nominal contact voltage.
• Monostable, non-latching relay operation.
• Through-hole PCB mounting for electronic circuit assemblies.

• Suitable for control signals and compatible electrical load switching.

Reliable Electromechanical Switching for Electronic Control Systems

The Finder 40.61.9.005.1000 operates by energising an electromagnetic coil to change the position of its single changeover contact. When the 5 V DC coil receives its rated supply, the common contact transfers from the normally closed terminal to the normally open terminal. When the coil supply is removed, the spring-return mechanism restores the original contact arrangement.

Finder Series 40 miniature relays are designed for applications requiring compact electromechanical switching and electrical separation between control and load circuits. The 40.61.9.005.1000 can be incorporated into printed circuit boards used in industrial controllers, electronic equipment, appliance control systems and OEM automation products. Appropriate contact protection and coil drive circuitry should be selected according to the connected load and control system.
