Reliable Electrical Switching for Industrial Automation

Industrial power relays such as the Finder 62.82.8.240.4040 provide a dependable method of controlling electrical loads using a separate AC control signal. When the relay's 240 V AC coil is energised, an electromagnetic mechanism operates the internal changeover contacts, transferring each circuit between its normally closed and normally open connections. This enables two independent electrical circuits to be switched simultaneously while maintaining electrical isolation between the control coil and connected loads.

The Finder 62 Series is designed for industrial switching applications where dependable contact operation, robust construction and straightforward maintenance are important. The 62.82.8.240.4040 incorporates a lockable test button and mechanical indicator, allowing maintenance engineers to check relay operation and identify its contact position without relying solely on the electrical control signal. The test button must be used in accordance with the equipment's safety procedures, as manual operation can energise connected circuits.

Its rear flange mounting arrangement and Faston 250 quick-connect terminals support secure installation and convenient electrical connections in machinery cabinets and control panels. With a 16 A rated contact current, durable AgSnO2 contacts and reinforced coil-to-contact insulation, this relay provides a practical solution for auxiliary switching, equipment interlocking and industrial automation applications. Contact loading must always be selected according to the electrical load type and operating conditions.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial automation and machinery control panels.
  • 240 V AC industrial control and signalling circuits.
  • PLC-controlled electrical switching and relay interface systems.
  • Industrial motor control and auxiliary contactor circuits.
  • Electrical interlocking and two-circuit changeover applications.
  • Manufacturing machinery and automated production equipment.
  • Electrical distribution and control cabinet assemblies.
  • Industrial heating, ventilation and air conditioning controls.
  • Building management and facility automation systems.
  • Equipment commissioning and relay testing applications.
  • OEM machinery and industrial electrical equipment manufacturing.
