Overview
The Finder 48.P6.7.012.1050SPA is a 16 A electromechanical interface relay module from Finder's 48 Series, designed for reliable switching and signal interfacing in industrial automation, machinery control and electrical control panels. Featuring a 12 V DC coil, single changeover contact (1 CO / SPDT) and DIN rail mounting, this compact relay interface provides a practical connection between electronic control equipment and electrical load circuits.
The module combines a plug-in electromagnetic relay with a compatible interface socket assembly, allowing the relay to be removed or replaced without dismantling the complete installation. Its push-in terminal connection system supports efficient panel wiring, while the slim 15.8 mm module width helps conserve valuable space inside electrical enclosures.
Designed for professional electrical installations, the Finder 48.P6.7.012.1050SPA offers a versatile switching solution for programmable logic controllers (PLCs), automation interfaces, building management systems and machinery control equipment. Its 16 A switching current rating and changeover contact arrangement make it suitable for a broad range of appropriately rated industrial control applications.

Reliable Interface Switching for Industrial Automation
The Finder 48.P6.7.012.1050SPA operates using a 12 V DC electromagnetic coil to control a single changeover contact. When the coil is energised, the common contact transfers from its normally closed position to its normally open position. Removing the coil supply returns the relay to its normal state. This arrangement allows a low-voltage control circuit to switch a separate electrical circuit while maintaining electrical separation between the control and load sides.
The Finder 48 Series is particularly useful for interfacing PLC outputs, control electronics and external electrical equipment. Its push-in terminals simplify installation, while the removable plug-in relay supports convenient servicing. The 16 A contact rating must be assessed against the actual load characteristics, including inrush current, inductive loading, switching frequency and operating voltage. Suitable circuit protection and suppression components should be incorporated where required.
Typical Applications
- PLC interface circuits: Switching external equipment from programmable logic controller outputs.
- Industrial automation: Auxiliary load control and signal interfacing in automated systems.
- Machinery control: Relay switching between electronic controllers and machine circuits.
