62.32.9.012.4060 Finder Power relay 2pole 16A DC 12V

Why Choose the Finder 62.32.9.012.4060 Power Relay?

The Finder 62.32.9.012.4060 is a versatile 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 model features a 12 V DC operating coil, two changeover contacts and an integrated LED indicator with protective diode, making it particularly suitable for DC-powered industrial control systems.

Featuring a 2 CO (DPDT) contact configuration, the Finder 62.32.9.012.4060 enables two independent electrical circuits to be switched simultaneously using a single control signal. Each changeover contact provides common, normally open and normally closed connections, supporting flexible electrical interlocking, auxiliary switching and control logic. Its silver tin oxide (AgSnO2) contacts provide good resistance to contact welding and support reliable operation with appropriately rated electrical loads.

A distinguishing feature of the 62.32.9.012.4060 is its integrated LED and flyback diode. The LED provides visual indication when the relay coil is energised, while the diode helps suppress the voltage transient generated when the DC coil is switched off. This is particularly useful when controlling the relay from suitable electronic outputs, transistor drivers or PLC control circuits. With Faston 187 quick-connect terminals and compatibility with appropriately selected Finder 92 Series sockets, the relay offers convenient installation, maintenance and replacement.

Reliable 12 V DC Switching with LED Indication and Coil Protection

The Finder 62.32.9.012.4060 operates through an electromagnetic switching mechanism. When the 12 V DC coil is energised with the correct polarity, the relay's internal armature transfers both changeover contacts from their normally closed positions to their normally open positions. This allows one DC control signal to operate two independent electrical circuits. When the coil supply is removed, the relay returns to its normal contact positions.

The integrated LED indicator and flyback diode make this version especially useful in electronic and PLC-based control systems. The LED provides an immediate visual indication of coil energisation, helping technicians identify active control signals during commissioning and fault-finding. The diode suppresses the inductive voltage transient produced when the coil is switched off, helping protect appropriately designed electronic switching circuits. Because the diode is connected across the coil, correct DC polarity is essential. The suppression diode may also increase the relay's release time compared with an unsuppressed coil, which should be considered in timing-sensitive applications.
