Reliable Multi-Circuit Switching for Industrial Automation

Electromagnetic relays such as the Finder 55.34.8.012.2040 provide electrically operated switching between control circuits and connected equipment. When the 12 V AC coil is energised, the relay actuates its four changeover contact sets, allowing multiple electrical circuits to be switched simultaneously. When the coil is de-energised, the contacts return to their normal positions.

The 4PDT contact arrangement provides flexibility for industrial control applications requiring several switching functions from a single control signal. Its AgCdO contacts and socket-mounted construction make the relay suitable for machine control, interlocking, signalling and electrical automation systems. The Finder 55 Series is designed to support reliable operation while simplifying control panel assembly and maintenance.
