Why Choose the Finder 41.61.9.012.0020 Miniature PCB Power Relay?
The Finder 41.61.9.012.0020 is a compact 16 A miniature electromechanical power relay designed for reliable switching in industrial automation, electronic control equipment and printed circuit board assemblies. Part of the established Finder 41 Series, it combines a low-profile design with a versatile single-pole changeover contact arrangement.
Featuring a 12 V DC operating coil and one changeover contact (SPDT/1 CO), the relay enables a control circuit to switch an electrical load between normally closed and normally open connections. Its 16 A contact rating makes it suitable for appropriately rated power-switching applications where compact dimensions and PCB integration are important.
The Finder 41.61.9.012.0020 is designed for through-hole PCB mounting using solder terminals. With a body measuring approximately 29 × 12.6 × 15.7 mm, it is particularly useful in space-conscious electronic assemblies, appliance control boards, building automation equipment and industrial control systems.
Key Advantages
- 16 A miniature power relay for compact electrical switching applications.
- Single-pole changeover contact (SPDT/1 CO) provides normally open and normally closed switching options.
- 12 V DC operating coil for compatible electronic and industrial control systems.
- Low-profile construction helps conserve space in PCB-based equipment.
- Through-hole PCB mounting supports direct integration into electronic assemblies.
- Electromechanical switching provides galvanic separation between the coil and contact circuit.
- Monostable operation automatically returns the contact to its normal position when coil power is removed.
- Suitable for switching appropriately rated AC and DC electrical loads.
- Compact dimensions support installation in densely populated control boards.
- Finder 41 Series design offers a practical solution for OEM equipment and maintenance applications.
Key Features
- Finder 41 Series low-profile PCB relay.

- 16 A rated switching current.
- 12 V DC nominal coil voltage.
- DC-operated electromagnetic switching mechanism.
- Monostable, non-latching relay operation.
- PCB through-hole solder terminals.
- Low-profile body approximately 15.7 mm high.
- Compact footprint for electronic control assemblies.
- Polarity-independent standard DC coil connection.
- Electrical isolation between the operating coil and switched contact circuit.
- Suitable for industrial automation, appliance electronics and building control equipment.
- Specific 0020 manufacturer configuration for accurate replacement identification.
Compact 12 V DC Changeover Switching for PCB Control Systems
The Finder 41.61.9.012.0020 operates using an electromagnetic coil to control a single changeover contact. When the 12 V DC coil is energised, the common contact transfers from its normally closed connection to its normally open connection. When coil power is removed, the contact automatically returns to its original position.
The SPDT changeover arrangement provides greater flexibility than a normally open-only relay. It allows an electronic controller to select between two switching paths, making the relay useful for equipment control, signal-dependent load switching, auxiliary functions and electrical interlocking arrangements.
With its 16 A contact rating and compact through-hole construction, the Finder 41.61.9.012.0020 is suitable for appropriately designed PCB power-switching circuits. Circuit board tracks, solder joints, conductor spacing, protective devices and thermal conditions must be designed for the intended load. When replacing an existing relay, the full part number should be checked because Finder 41 Series variants can differ in contact material, environmental protection and other construction details.
Typical Applications
- Industrial automation and electronic control systems.
- Printed circuit board power-switching assemblies.
- 12 V DC control circuits.
- Building automation and electrical management equipment.
- Domestic and commercial appliance control boards.
- Heating and boiler control electronics.
- Automatic gate and access control systems.
- Lighting and auxiliary electrical load switching.
- Electronic timers and control modules.
- Industrial machinery control interfaces.
- OEM electronic equipment and embedded control assemblies.
- Maintenance and replacement of compatible Finder 41 Series relays.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Finder 41.61.9.012.0020 used for?
The Finder 41.61.9.012.0020 is a miniature electromechanical PCB power relay used for switching electrical circuits in automation systems, appliance electronics, building controls and industrial equipment. Its single changeover contact allows a control signal to switch between normally closed and normally open connections.
What coil voltage does the Finder 41.61.9.012.0020 require?
The relay uses a 12 V DC coil. It is designed for appropriately rated direct-current control circuits and should not be connected directly to an AC coil supply.
What is the contact rating of the Finder 41.61.9.012.0020?
The relay has a 16 A rated changeover contact. The permissible switching current depends on the applied voltage, load type and operating conditions. Resistive, inductive and DC loads must be assessed against the relevant Finder contact ratings.
What does the SPDT contact configuration mean?
SPDT stands for single-pole double-throw. The relay has one changeover contact with a common terminal, a normally closed connection and a normally open connection. Energising the coil transfers the common contact from the normally closed path to the normally open path.
How is the Finder 41.61.9.012.0020 mounted?
The relay is designed for through-hole PCB mounting using solder pins. It is installed directly onto a suitably designed printed circuit board. Its low-profile construction makes it useful where board space and enclosure height are limited.
What are the dimensions of the Finder 41.61.9.012.0020?
The relay measures approximately 29 × 12.6 × 15.7 mm. The PCB footprint and terminal positions should be checked against the manufacturer drawing before installation or replacement.
What should be checked when replacing the Finder 41.61.9.012.0020?
Verify the complete manufacturer part number, 12 V DC coil, SPDT contact arrangement, 16 A contact rating, PCB footprint and terminal configuration. The specific 0020 variant should also be matched because a similar Finder 41 Series relay may have different construction or operating characteristics.
