Why Choose the Finder 99.01.9.024.90 LED and Diode Module?
The Finder 99.01.9.024.90 is a compact red LED indication and flyback diode suppression module designed for compatible Finder relay sockets. Part of the Finder 99 Series, it combines visual relay coil indication with electrical transient suppression in a convenient plug-in accessory for industrial automation and control panel applications.
Designed for 6–24 V DC relay coil circuits, the module features a red LED that illuminates when the relay coil is energised. This provides an immediate visual indication of the control signal, helping electrical engineers and maintenance technicians identify active relays during commissioning, inspection and fault-finding.
The integrated freewheeling diode helps suppress the reverse-voltage spike generated when a DC relay coil is switched off. By providing a discharge path for the coil's stored magnetic energy, the diode helps reduce electrical transients that could otherwise interfere with sensitive electronic control equipment.
The Finder 99.01.9.024.90 uses standard polarity, with the positive supply connected to terminal A1. Its compact blue housing and plug-in construction make it a practical accessory for compatible Finder relay installations where both coil indication and DC suppression are required.

How LED Indication and Flyback Diode Suppression Work Together
When a DC relay coil is energised, current flows through its winding and generates the magnetic field needed to operate the relay contacts. The Finder 99.01.9.024.90 provides a red LED indication during this energised state, allowing operators to see that the coil supply is present without using a separate indicator lamp.
When the control voltage is removed, the magnetic field stored in the relay coil begins to collapse. Without suppression, this process can generate a reverse-voltage spike across the coil terminals. The module's integrated freewheeling diode provides a controlled current path that limits this voltage spike and helps reduce interference with connected electronic equipment.
The diode also affects how quickly the relay releases. Because the stored coil energy is dissipated through the freewheeling path, the relay's release time can increase by approximately a factor of three. This characteristic should be considered in applications requiring rapid relay release, precise switching sequences or safety-related timing performance.
Correct polarity is essential. The Finder 99.01.9.024.90 is a standard-polarity module intended for circuits with positive connected to A1 and negative connected to A2. Reversing the supply may forward-bias the suppression diode and cause excessive current. The module should only be installed after checking the relay coil voltage, socket compatibility and wiring polarity.
The 99.01 plug-in format allows the module to be installed in suitable Finder relay sockets without constructing a separate diode and LED circuit. This makes it useful for control panel manufacturing, equipment upgrades and maintenance where clear relay status indication and coil transient suppression are required.
