62.32.8.120.4300 Finder Power relay 2pole 16A 120V
Finder 62.32.8.120.4300 is a 62 Series plug-in electromechanical power relay featuring a 120 V AC coil, two normally open 16 A contacts with a minimum 3 mm contact gap, reinforced coil-to-contact insulation and Faston 187 quick-connect terminals. Suitable for industrial automation, machinery control and electrical power switching applications.
Why Choose the Finder 62.32.8.120.4300 Power Relay?
The Finder 62.32.8.120.4300 is a high-performance 16 A two-pole electromechanical power relay designed for reliable electrical switching in industrial automation, machinery control and electrical equipment. Part of the established Finder 62 Series, this model combines a 120 V AC operating coil, two normally open contacts and an enhanced contact separation arrangement for demanding industrial applications.
Featuring a 2 NO (DPST-NO) contact configuration, the relay enables two independent electrical circuits to be switched simultaneously using a single control signal. Unlike a standard DPDT changeover relay, this version provides two normally open contacts with a minimum 3 mm contact gap. The wider separation between open contacts makes it particularly suitable for equipment designs requiring enhanced contact isolation in accordance with applicable electrical safety requirements.
With a 16 A rated contact current, 250 V AC rated contact voltage and 4,000 VA resistive switching capacity, the Finder 62.32.8.120.4300 provides dependable power switching for industrial control systems. Its Faston 187 quick-connect terminals allow direct electrical connections or installation using a suitably selected Finder 92 Series relay socket, supporting convenient integration into industrial control panels and machinery.

Reliable Two-Pole Power Switching with Enhanced Contact Separation
The Finder 62.32.8.120.4300 operates using an electromagnetic switching mechanism. When the 120 V AC coil is energised, the internal armature closes both normally open contacts, allowing electrical current to flow through the connected circuits. When the coil supply is removed, the contacts return to their open positions, interrupting both switched circuits. This provides straightforward two-pole switching through a single control signal.
The distinguishing feature of this relay is its minimum 3 mm contact gap, which provides greater separation between open contacts than conventional changeover configurations. This characteristic is useful in industrial electrical equipment where enhanced contact separation is specified. Combined with its 16 A switching capacity, reinforced coil-to-contact insulation and convenient plug-in construction, the relay provides a practical switching solution for electrical engineers, panel builders and industrial equipment manufacturers. The relay's suitability for any particular isolation or disconnection function must be assessed against the applicable equipment standard and installation requirements.
