62.32.8.048.4040 Finder Power relay 2pole 16A 48VNO

Why Choose the Finder 62.32.8.048.4040 Power Relay?

The Finder 62.32.8.048.4040 is a robust 16 A two-pole electromechanical power relay designed for dependable electrical switching in industrial automation, machinery control and electrical control panels. Part of the established Finder 62 Series, this relay features a 48 V AC operating coil, two changeover contacts and a plug-in mounting arrangement for convenient integration into industrial electrical systems.

Featuring a 2 CO (DPDT) contact configuration, the relay enables two independent circuits to be switched simultaneously using a single control signal. Each contact provides common, normally open and normally closed connections, making the relay suitable for electrical interlocking, control logic and auxiliary switching. Its silver tin oxide (AgSnO2) contacts provide good resistance to contact welding and support reliable operation with appropriately rated industrial loads.

A distinguishing feature of the 62.32.8.048.4040 is its lockable test button and mechanical flag indicator. The test button allows technicians to operate the contacts manually during commissioning and maintenance, while the mechanical flag provides a visual indication of relay operation. Combined with Faston 187 quick-connect terminals and compatibility with appropriately selected Finder 92 Series sockets, this model offers a practical solution for industrial control installations requiring reliable switching and convenient maintenance access.

Reliable Industrial Switching with Manual Testing and Visual Indication

The Finder 62.32.8.048.4040 operates through an electromagnetic switching mechanism. When the 48 V AC coil is energised, the internal armature transfers both changeover contacts from their normal positions to their operated positions. Each pole can therefore switch between a normally closed and a normally open circuit. When the coil is de-energised, the relay returns to its normal contact state.

The integrated lockable test button and mechanical flag indicator make this version particularly useful in industrial control panels where commissioning, fault-finding and routine maintenance are important. Technicians can manually operate the relay contacts using the test button and observe the mechanical indication without relying solely on external monitoring equipment. When installed in a suitable Finder 92 Series socket, the relay can also be replaced without desoldering or modifying a printed circuit board. Manual testing should only be carried out by competent personnel using appropriate electrical safety procedures.
