62.32.9.012.4040 Finder Power relay 2pole 16A DC 12V

Why Choose the Finder 62.32.9.012.4040 Power Relay?

The Finder 62.32.9.012.4040 is a reliable 16 A two-pole electromechanical power relay designed for industrial automation, electrical control panels and machinery control applications. Part of the established Finder 62 Series, this relay combines a 12 V DC operating coil, two changeover contacts and silver tin oxide contact technology to provide dependable electrical switching in demanding industrial environments.

Featuring a 2 CO (DPDT) contact configuration, the Finder 62.32.9.012.4040 enables two independent electrical circuits to be switched simultaneously using a single control signal. Each changeover contact provides a common, normally open and normally closed connection, making the relay suitable for electrical interlocking, auxiliary power switching and industrial control logic. Its silver tin oxide (AgSnO2) contact material provides good resistance to contact welding and supports reliable operation with appropriately rated electrical loads.

A distinguishing feature of this model is its lockable manual test button and mechanical flag indicator, which support convenient commissioning, testing and maintenance. The relay also features Faston 187 quick-connect terminals and is compatible with appropriately selected Finder 92 Series relay sockets. These features make the Finder 62.32.9.012.4040 a practical solution for panel builders, automation engineers and maintenance professionals who require reliable switching with straightforward installation and visual contact indication.

Reliable 12 V DC Switching with Manual Testing and Mechanical Indication

The Finder 62.32.9.012.4040 uses an electromagnetic operating mechanism to control two independent changeover contacts. When the 12 V DC coil is energised, the relay's internal armature transfers both common contacts from their normally closed positions to their normally open positions. This allows a single DC control signal to operate two separate electrical circuits. When the coil supply is removed, the contacts automatically return to their normal positions.

The integrated lockable test button and mechanical flag indicator make this relay particularly useful in industrial control panels where maintenance access and visual confirmation of contact operation are important. The test button allows manual operation of the contacts during commissioning and diagnostic procedures, while the mechanical indicator provides a visible indication of the relay's operated state. Combined with Faston 187 terminals and compatibility with suitable Finder 92 Series sockets, this arrangement supports convenient installation, testing and replacement. Manual testing should only be performed by competent personnel following appropriate electrical safety procedures.
