Why Choose the Finder 80.61.0.240.0000T Timer Relay?
The Finder 80.61.0.240.0000T is a compact and reliable multivoltage off-delay timer relay designed for precise time-controlled switching in industrial automation, railway equipment and electrical control systems. As part of the Finder 80 Series modular timer relay range, this model provides a dedicated power-off delay function, allowing connected equipment to remain switched for a predetermined period after the supply voltage is removed.
This timer relay features a single changeover (SPDT) contact rated at 8 A, an adjustable timing range of 0.05–180 s and a wide 24–240 V AC/DC supply voltage range. Its power-off delay operation is particularly useful in applications requiring controlled shutdown sequences, delayed equipment deactivation and timed switching without a separate external control signal.
The Finder 80.61.0.240.0000T is a railway-oriented version of the 80.61 timer relay, designed for demanding electrical installations and applications involving vibration and environmental requirements. Its compact 17.5 mm-wide DIN rail mounting format, LED status indication and screw terminal connections make it suitable for installation in railway electrical cabinets, industrial control panels and automated machinery.

Reliable Power-Off Delay Control for Industrial and Railway Systems
Timer relays such as the Finder 80.61.0.240.0000T provide controlled electrical switching based on a preset time interval. Unlike conventional instantaneous relays, a power-off delay timer maintains its output state for a defined period after the supply voltage is removed. Once the selected delay has elapsed, the relay returns to its normal contact position.
The Finder 80.61 Series uses an electronic timing circuit to provide adjustable off-delay operation. The timing interval can be set between 0.05 and 180 s, allowing engineers to configure the delay according to the requirements of the connected control circuit. Its single changeover contact provides normally open and normally closed switching paths for integration with suitable electrical loads.
The 80.61.0.240.0000T railway variant is particularly suited to applications requiring components designed with railway fire protection and mechanical resistance requirements in mind. Its compliance with EN 45545-2 and EN 61373 makes it relevant to railway rolling stock and associated electrical equipment, subject to the requirements of the complete installation.
The wide 24–240 V AC/DC operating supply simplifies integration into control systems using different supply voltages. Its compact housing, DIN rail mounting and LED indication also help reduce installation complexity and support convenient maintenance in industrial and railway electrical cabinets.
