56.34.9.220.2020 Finder Miniature power relay 4 pole 12A DC 220V.
The Finder 56.34.9.220.2020 is a robust four-pole changeover (4PDT) industrial power relay designed for dependable electrical switching in industrial automation, machinery control and power distribution applications. As part of the established Finder 56 Series miniature power relay range, it combines high-current switching capability with a compact, serviceable plug-in design.
Featuring a 220 V DC operating coil and four changeover contacts rated at 12 A, this relay enables multiple independent electrical circuits to be switched through a single electromagnetic operating mechanism. The 56.34 relay configuration is particularly suitable for industrial control systems requiring higher contact current ratings than conventional miniature control relays.
The Finder 56.34 series provides a 250 V AC rated contact voltage, a maximum switching voltage of 400 V AC and a rated AC1 switching capacity of 3,000 VA. Its plug-in construction and compatibility with suitable Finder 96 Series sockets make it a practical choice for electrical control panels, industrial machinery, auxiliary power switching and equipment maintenance.
The Finder 56.34.9.220.2020 operates by applying a 220 V DC control voltage to its electromagnetic coil. When the coil is energised, the relay actuates its four changeover contacts, allowing connected electrical circuits to be switched simultaneously. When the coil is de-energised, the contacts return to their normal positions.
Its four-pole changeover configuration enables multiple independent control and power circuits to be switched from one operating signal. This makes the relay particularly useful in industrial automation, equipment interlocking, auxiliary power control and electrical switching systems where several contact functions must operate together.
The 12 A rated contacts provide higher switching capacity than many conventional miniature control relays. The Finder 56 Series is designed for applications involving electrical machinery, industrial equipment, motor control interfaces and power distribution systems, with the permissible switching load determined by the relevant AC or DC utilisation category.
The relay's plug-in construction supports efficient installation and maintenance. When installed in a suitable Finder 96 Series socket, the relay can be removed and replaced without disconnecting the socket's permanent wiring. This makes it a practical component for new industrial installations and maintenance of existing electrical control equipment.
