Reliable Electromechanical Switching for Electronic Control Systems
Miniature power relays such as the Finder 40.61.7.005.4301 provide a practical method of controlling electrical loads using an independent low-voltage control signal. When the 5 V DC coil is energised, the relay's electromagnetic mechanism transfers the changeover contact from its normally closed position to its normally open position. When the coil supply is removed, the contact returns to its normal position.
The Finder Series 40 range is developed for applications requiring compact construction, dependable switching and straightforward integration into electronic assemblies. The 40.61 relay configuration offers a higher-current contact arrangement within the miniature relay family, making it suitable for compatible electrical loads where the specified switching voltage, current and load characteristics are observed.
