Reliable Power Switching for Industrial Control and Automation

Industrial power relays such as the Finder 56.34.8.110.2040 provide a dependable method of controlling multiple electrical circuits through a separate AC control supply. When the 110 V AC coil is energised, the relay's electromagnetic mechanism changes the position of its four changeover contacts, allowing connected circuits to be switched according to the requirements of the control system.

The Finder 56 Series is designed for industrial switching applications where reliable contact operation, compact construction and straightforward maintenance are important. Its plug-in design allows installation into compatible relay sockets, simplifying replacement without extensive changes to existing control wiring. The integrated mechanical position indicator and lockable test button provide useful functionality during commissioning, inspection and maintenance.

With four changeover contact sets rated at 12 A, the Finder 56.34.8.110.2040 is suitable for applications requiring several circuits to operate from a common control signal. These include electrical interlocking, industrial signalling, auxiliary motor control and switching of appropriately rated electrical loads. The relay's switching capacity must be evaluated against the load type, operating voltage, inrush current and required switching duty.
