Why Choose the Finder 97.11 Relay Socket?
The Finder 97.11 is a compact relay socket from the Finder 97 Series, designed to provide a practical electrical connection interface for compatible Finder plug-in relays. It supports the installation of removable electromechanical relays in industrial automation, machinery control and electrical switching applications.
By separating the relay from the fixed control wiring, the Finder 97.11 helps simplify installation, inspection and maintenance. A compatible relay can be removed or replaced without repeatedly disconnecting the associated socket wiring, helping maintain an organised electrical control assembly.
The Finder 97 Series is associated with relay interface and accessory solutions for electrical control systems. The 97.11 is suitable for applications requiring a dedicated socket connection, with the exact relay compatibility, terminal configuration and mounting requirements determined by the selected relay assembly.

Reliable Relay Connections for Electrical Control Applications
The Finder 97.11 provides a connection interface between a compatible removable relay and the fixed wiring of an electrical control system. This arrangement supports practical relay installation and allows switching components to be serviced without unnecessary disturbance to the associated wiring.
In a complete relay assembly, the relay provides the switching function while the socket establishes the required electrical connections. The relay's coil voltage, contact arrangement, switching capacity and mechanical compatibility must be appropriate for the socket and the intended application.
For reliable operation, the complete relay and socket assembly must be installed according to the applicable manufacturer's instructions and within the lowest relevant electrical rating of its components. Electrical power should always be safely isolated before installation or maintenance.
Typical Applications
- Industrial automation and relay interface circuits.
- Electrical control panels and relay assemblies.
- Machinery control and auxiliary switching.
- Industrial signalling and control circuits.
- Manufacturing and production equipment.
- Building automation and HVAC control systems.
- Electrical equipment maintenance.
- OEM control panel manufacturing.
- Relay-based switching equipment.
- Compatible relay socket replacement installations.
