56.32.9.024.4060 Finder Miniature power relay Plugin 2p 12A DC24V

Why Choose the Finder 56.32.9.024.4060 24 V DC 12 A Industrial Power Relay?

The Finder 56.32.9.024.4060 is a two-pole industrial electromechanical power relay from the Finder Series 56 range, designed for switching and control applications in industrial automation, machinery and electrical control panels. Featuring a 24 V DC operating coil, two changeover contacts (2 CO / DPDT) and a 12 A rated contact current, it provides flexible switching from a low-voltage DC control circuit.

The Finder 56.32 configuration allows two independently wired circuits to be operated simultaneously through a single electromagnetic coil. Each changeover pole provides a common, normally open and normally closed connection, making the relay suitable for auxiliary switching, equipment status indication, control logic and electrical interlocking.

Part of Finder's established Series 56 miniature power relay family, the 56.32.9.024.4060 uses a plug-in construction compatible with appropriately selected Finder Series 96 relay sockets. The relay family supports mechanical contact-position indication and manual test functions, making it particularly useful for control-panel maintenance and industrial equipment servicing.

Variant-specific note: The technical values above are based on the Finder 56.32 relay family and corresponding 24 V DC versions. The exact contact material, indicator, test-button and other special features associated with the 4060 suffix have not been independently confirmed and should be checked against Finder's ordering information before specifying an exact replacement.

Reliable Two-Pole Switching for Industrial Automation

The Finder 56.32.9.024.4060 uses a 24 V DC electromagnetic coil to operate two changeover contacts. When the coil is energised, each common contact transfers from its normally closed connection to its normally open connection. When the coil supply is removed, the relay returns to its normal switching state.

The two-pole changeover configuration enables separate electrical circuits to be controlled through one relay. This is useful for switching an auxiliary load while simultaneously providing an equipment-status signal, or for implementing control and interlocking functions within machinery and electrical panels.

The Finder 56.32 family's 12 A contact rating and 3,000 VA AC1 resistive switching capacity support appropriately rated industrial loads. Actual permissible switching duty depends on the connected load, operating voltage, contact material and applicable manufacturer ratings.

The plug-in design supports convenient servicing when used with a suitable Finder Series 96 socket. Maintenance personnel can replace the relay without disconnecting the permanent socket wiring, helping reduce downtime and simplify troubleshooting.

For inductive loads, including contactor coils, motors and solenoids, appropriate switching protection and transient suppression should be considered. The relay must be selected according to the actual utilisation category and electrical load characteristics.
