Reliable High-Current Switching for Industrial and Hazardous-Location Equipment

The Finder 66.82.9.024.4303 operates through an electromagnetic mechanism controlled by its 24 V DC coil. When the coil is energised, the relay closes both normally open contacts, allowing the connected electrical circuits to operate. When the coil supply is removed, the contacts return to their open positions, disconnecting the switched loads.

The relay's silver tin oxide (AgSnO₂) contacts are designed for industrial power switching, providing resistance to electrical wear under suitable operating conditions. Its 30 A nominal contact rating and specified short-duration peak current capability make it suitable for appropriately rated electrical loads. The flange-mounted construction and Faston 250 terminals facilitate integration into machinery, electrical control panels and OEM equipment.

The ATEX / HazLoc configuration is intended for equipment designed to meet the applicable hazardous-location requirements. Installation must account for the relevant explosion-protection classification, permitted ambient temperature, electrical loading, enclosure protection, terminal connections and applicable certification conditions. The relay's hazardous-location designation does not permit unrestricted use of the bare component in potentially explosive atmospheres.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial machinery and automated manufacturing equipment.
  • Electrical load switching and power control systems.
  • Industrial heating and temperature regulation equipment.
  • Heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems.
  • OEM machinery using 24 V DC control circuits.
  • Industrial process control and automation equipment.
  • Power management and auxiliary switching assemblies.
