Reliable PCB Relay Connections for Industrial Automation
The Finder 93.11 PCB relay socket provides a secure electrical and mechanical connection between compatible plug-in relays and printed circuit boards. Its through-hole terminals are soldered directly to the PCB, creating a permanent connection to the control circuit while allowing the relay itself to remain removable.
When used with a compatible Finder 34.51 electromechanical relay, the socket supports relay-based control and switching applications. It can also accommodate compatible Finder 34.81 solid-state relays, allowing designers to select an appropriate switching technology for the application while retaining the specified socket arrangement.
The integrated retaining and release clip helps prevent accidental relay movement and provides a convenient method of removing the relay during maintenance. This is particularly valuable in electronic control equipment where repeated desoldering could damage PCB tracks or increase servicing time.
With a rated dielectric strength of at least 6 kV between coil and contact circuits under the specified impulse test, the Finder 93.11 supports reliable electrical separation within compatible relay assemblies. The actual switching capability and insulation performance of the complete installation must also take account of the fitted relay, PCB design and applicable electrical safety requirements.
