62.82.8.012.4000 Finder Power relay 2pole 16A 12V

Why Choose the Finder 62.82.8.012.4000 Power Relay?

The Finder 62.82.8.012.4000 is a robust 16 A electromagnetic power relay with a 12 V AC operating coil, designed for dependable switching in industrial automation, machinery control and electrical control panels. Part of the established Finder 62 Series, this relay combines two-pole changeover switching, durable silver tin oxide contacts and a practical flange-mounting arrangement.

Featuring two changeover contacts (2 CO / DPDT), the Finder 62.82.8.012.4000 enables two independent electrical circuits to be switched simultaneously using a single 12 V AC control signal. Each changeover contact provides both normally open and normally closed switching paths, making the relay suitable for equipment interlocking, control logic, signalling and electrical load switching.

With a 16 A rated contact current, 250 V AC rated switching voltage and silver tin oxide (AgSnO2) contacts, the relay is designed for demanding industrial switching applications. Its Faston 250 terminals measuring 6.3 × 0.8 mm and rear flange mounting provide a practical installation method for machinery and electrical assemblies where secure mounting and accessible connections are important.

Technical note: The Finder 62.82.8.012.4000 is a two-pole changeover relay with Faston 250 connections and rear flange mounting. It should not be confused with the Finder 62.33 range, which uses a different terminal and mounting arrangement. Contact current limits vary with switching voltage, load characteristics and operating conditions. Confirm the installation and applicable approvals against the manufacturer's current datasheet.

Reliable 12 V AC-Controlled Switching for Industrial Automation

The Finder 62.82.8.012.4000 enables two independent electrical circuits to be controlled using a single 12 V AC operating coil. When the coil is energised, the relay's electromagnetic mechanism transfers both changeover contacts from their normally closed positions to their normally open positions. When the coil is de-energised, the contacts return to their original positions, providing repeatable switching for industrial control systems.

The DPDT contact arrangement provides greater flexibility than a normally open-only relay because each contact set can select between two electrical paths. This makes the relay useful for equipment interlocking, status signalling, control logic and coordinated switching applications where two circuits must respond to the same control signal.

Its silver tin oxide contacts are designed to withstand appropriately rated electrical switching duties, while the 16 A nominal contact rating makes the relay suitable for a range of industrial load-control applications. Engineers should select the relay according to the load's actual electrical characteristics, particularly when switching inductive equipment or DC circuits.

The rear flange mounting arrangement allows the relay to be secured within machinery or electrical assemblies, while its Faston 250 quick-connect terminals support convenient wiring and servicing. These features make the Finder 62.82.8.012.4000 a practical option for new equipment designs and compatible replacement installations.
