Why Choose the Finder 62.32.8.115.0040 Power Relay?
The Finder 62.32.8.115.0040 is a robust 115 V AC electromagnetic power relay designed for industrial automation, electrical control panels and power switching applications. Part of the Finder 62 Series, this relay features two changeover contacts (DPDT / 2 CO) rated at 16 A, providing flexible switching of two independent electrical circuits.
Designed for dependable operation and convenient maintenance, the Finder 62.32.8.115.0040 incorporates a lockable test button and mechanical flag indicator. These features allow technicians to check relay operation and visually identify the contact mechanism's position during commissioning, inspection and troubleshooting.
With its 115 V AC coil, silver cadmium oxide (AgCdO) contacts and plug-in connection, this relay is suitable for machinery control, electrical interlocking, industrial signalling and auxiliary power switching. The .0040 variant provides mechanical indication and manual testing without an integrated LED indicator.

Dependable Power Switching with Manual Testing and Mechanical Indication
The Finder 62.32.8.115.0040 uses an electromagnetic coil to operate two independent changeover contact sets. When the 115 V AC coil is energised, the relay transfers its contacts from their normal positions to their operated positions. When the coil supply is removed, the contacts return to their normal state, enabling a control signal to switch appropriately rated external circuits.
The DPDT contact arrangement allows two separate switching functions to be controlled by one relay coil. Its lockable test button enables manual contact actuation for commissioning and maintenance, while the mechanical flag indicator provides visual confirmation of the relay mechanism's position without requiring an LED.
The 16 A contact rating makes this relay suitable for a range of industrial power switching applications. When selecting the relay, the load voltage, current, inrush characteristics and switching duty should be checked against the applicable manufacturer ratings, particularly for inductive and DC loads.
Typical Applications
- Industrial automation and machinery control systems.
- Electrical control panels and switchgear assemblies.
- 115 V AC control and auxiliary circuits.
