46.52.9.012.5074 Finder Miniature industrial relay 2p 8A DC 12V

Why Choose the Finder 46.52.9.012.5074 Miniature Industrial Relay?

The Finder 46.52.9.012.5074 is a compact and dependable 8 A miniature industrial electromechanical relay designed for switching and control applications in industrial automation, electrical control panels and electronic equipment. As part of the established Finder 46 Series industrial relay range, it combines a 12 V DC coil, two changeover contacts and a practical plug-in construction suitable for compatible relay sockets.

This relay enables low-voltage control circuits to operate separate electrical loads through an electromagnetic switching mechanism. Its double-pole double-throw (DPDT) configuration provides two independently wired changeover contacts operated by a common coil, allowing a single control signal to switch two circuits simultaneously. The Finder 46 Series offers compact dimensions, dependable contact operation and high electrical insulation for industrial control applications.

With an 8 A rated contact current, a 12 V DC nominal coil and a 250 V AC rated contact voltage, the Finder 46.52.9.012.5074 is suitable for control interfaces, signalling equipment, automation panels and compatible electrical loads. Its approximately 29 × 12.4 × 32.8 mm housing provides a compact solution for industrial installations where reliable switching and convenient relay replacement are important.

Reliable Electrical Switching for Industrial Automation

Electromechanical relays such as the Finder 46.52.9.012.5074 allow low-voltage control circuits to switch separate electrical loads using an electromagnetic operating mechanism. When the 12 V DC coil is energised, both changeover contacts transfer from their normally closed positions to their normally open positions. This allows a single control signal to operate two separate switching circuits while maintaining electrical separation between the coil and contact circuits.

The Finder 46 Series is designed for automation engineers, electrical panel builders and OEM equipment manufacturers requiring dependable switching and convenient installation. The 46.52 double-changeover configuration is particularly useful for control logic, signalling, interlocking and equipment interfaces. Its plug-in construction supports straightforward servicing, while the gold-plated contact surfaces of this variant are relevant to applications requiring dependable electrical contact performance. Contact ratings must be checked against the actual load, particularly for inductive equipment and circuits with high inrush currents.

Typical Applications

• Industrial automation and electrical control panels.
• PLC interface circuits and auxiliary relay assemblies.
• Industrial machinery control and signalling systems.
• Electrical interlocking and control logic circuits.
• Building automation and electrical switching equipment.
• Heating, ventilation and air conditioning control systems.
• Alarm, monitoring and status indication circuits.
• Control interfaces for automated production equipment.
• Low-level electronic signalling circuits where suitable contact performance is required.
• OEM industrial control equipment and maintenance applications.
