Reliable DC-Controlled Power Switching for Industrial Equipment

Electromagnetic power relays such as the Finder 66.22.9.024.1600 enable electrical loads to be controlled through a separate low-voltage control circuit. When the 24 V DC coil is energised, the relay operates its contact mechanism to close the normally open switching circuits. When the coil supply is removed, the contacts return to their normal open state.

The Finder Series 66 is designed for power switching applications requiring dependable electromagnetic operation, high contact current capacity and reinforced electrical insulation. The two-pole normally open arrangement is particularly useful when two separate conductors or circuits must be switched together using a single control signal.

The PCB-mounted construction of the 66.22.9.024.1600 supports integration into industrial power control boards, electrical equipment and automation assemblies. Its 24 V DC coil makes it suitable for control systems using DC power supplies, while the 30 A contact rating supports substantial switching duties when the load category and installation conditions are correctly considered. Appropriate PCB conductor sizing, contact protection and thermal management are important for reliable high-current operation.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial machinery and automation control systems.
  • High-current electrical load switching equipment.
  • PCB-based power distribution and control assemblies.
  • Heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems.
  • Industrial heating and temperature control equipment.
  • Power supply and load management circuits.
  • Industrial motor auxiliary switching applications.
  • Automated production and manufacturing equipment.
  • OEM electrical and electronic control systems.
  • Commercial and industrial equipment requiring DC-controlled power switching.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Finder 66.22.9.024.1600 used for?

The Finder 66.22.9.024.1600 is an electromagnetic power relay used to control electrical loads in industrial automation, machinery, power management and electrical control equipment. Its two normally open contacts allow two separate electrical circuits to be switched simultaneously.

What is the coil voltage of the Finder 66.22.9.024.1600?

The relay uses a 24 V DC nominal operating coil, making it suitable for industrial control systems with a compatible DC power supply. The standard Series 66 DC coil operating range is 19.2–26.4 V DC for a 24 V nominal coil.

What is the contact current rating of this relay?

The Finder 66.22.9.024.1600 belongs to the 30 A Finder Series 66 power relay range. The applicable switching capacity depends on the electrical load, operating voltage and switching conditions, so the correct load category must be considered during equipment design.

What does 2 NO or DPST-NO mean?

2 NO (two normally open contacts), also known as DPST-NO (Double Pole Single Throw – Normally Open), means the relay has two independent switching circuits that are open when the coil is de-energised. Both contacts close when the relay coil is energised.

Can the Finder 66.22.9.024.1600 be controlled by a PLC?

Yes. The relay can be operated by a 24 V DC industrial control system or PLC output, provided the output circuit is capable of supplying the required coil current. A suitable interposing driver and coil suppression arrangement may be required depending on the PLC output specification.

How is the Finder 66.22.9.024.1600 installed?

The relay is designed for printed circuit board (PCB) mounting using solder terminals. It can be integrated into industrial electronic assemblies and power control boards designed to accommodate its contact current, electrical insulation and thermal requirements.

What is the difference between an AC coil and a DC coil relay?

An AC coil relay is designed to operate from an alternating-current control supply, whereas a DC coil relay operates from a direct-current supply. The Finder 66.22.9.024.1600 uses a 24 V DC coil and should not be connected directly to an AC coil supply.

What insulation features does the Finder Series 66 provide?

The Finder Series 66 incorporates reinforced insulation between the coil and contacts, with an 8 mm creepage and clearance distance and a coil-to-contact impulse withstand voltage of 6 kV. These characteristics support electrical separation between control and switched circuits.

What is the operating temperature range?

The Finder Series 66 power relay range is specified for ambient operating temperatures from −40 to +70 °C, subject to the applicable load conditions and manufacturer's operating limits.
