Why Choose the Finder 62.83.8.048.4000 Industrial Power Relay?
The Finder 62.83.8.048.4000 is a robust 16 A industrial power relay from Finder's established 62 Series, designed for reliable electrical switching in automation, machinery and control panel applications. Featuring a 48 V AC coil and three changeover contacts (3 CO / 3PDT), this relay allows three separate electrical circuits to be controlled simultaneously through a single electromagnetic switching mechanism.
The relay incorporates silver tin oxide (AgSnO2) contact material, providing a durable contact system suited to industrial switching duties. Its 250 V AC rated contact voltage, 16 A rated current and 4,000 VA AC1 switching capacity make it a practical choice for appropriately rated resistive loads, industrial control circuits and auxiliary power switching.
Designed for flange mounting with Faston 250 quick-connect terminals, the Finder 62.83.8.048.4000 supports secure installation and convenient wiring in industrial electrical assemblies. Its monostable electromagnetic mechanism, reinforced coil-to-contact insulation and three-pole changeover configuration provide flexible switching functionality for professional electrical control systems.

Reliable Three-Pole Changeover Switching for Industrial Control
The Finder 62.83.8.048.4000 uses an electromagnetic coil to operate three mechanically linked changeover contacts. When the 48 V AC coil is energised, each contact transfers from its normally closed position to its normally open position. Removing the coil supply allows the relay to return to its normal state. This operating principle enables coordinated control of multiple electrical circuits, making the relay suitable for machinery control, automation sequences and auxiliary switching applications.
The Finder 62 Series combines durable contact construction with reinforced insulation and practical mounting arrangements for industrial electrical equipment. The 62.83.8.048.4000 provides a useful balance of 16 A switching capability, three-pole changeover functionality and AC coil operation. Correct selection must account for the connected load, inrush current, switching frequency, wiring and protective devices. The rated AC1 current must not be assumed to apply unchanged to motors, transformers or other inductive loads.
Typical Applications
- Industrial automation: Switching multiple electrical circuits in automated machinery.
- Control panels: Auxiliary switching and relay logic in industrial electrical assemblies.
- Machinery control: Coordinated switching of equipment operating circuits.
- Heating and HVAC systems: Control of suitably rated electrical loads.
- Electrical interlocking: Changeover contact arrangements for control sequences.
- Power management: Auxiliary switching and load control applications.
