Reliable Industrial Switching with Gold-Plated Contacts
Electromechanical relays such as the Finder 60.12.9.024.5070 provide a dependable method of controlling electrical circuits through an electromagnetic switching mechanism. When the 24 V DC coil is energised, the internal armature changes the state of the relay's two changeover contacts, allowing connected loads to be switched according to the control signal. When the coil is de-energised, the contacts return to their normal positions.
The Finder 60 Series is designed for industrial control systems requiring reliable switching, flexible installation and straightforward maintenance. The 60.12.9.024.5070 features gold-plated silver nickel contacts, an integrated suppression diode and an illuminated status indicator, providing useful advantages in control and signalling applications. Its octal plug-in construction allows convenient replacement, while the test button assists technicians during commissioning and troubleshooting. Because the coil includes a suppression diode, correct DC polarity must be observed during installation.
Typical Applications
