Why Choose the Finder 62.23.8.230.4300 Industrial Power Relay?
The Finder 62.23.8.230.4300 is a robust 16 A industrial power relay designed for dependable switching in industrial automation, electrical control equipment and machinery. Featuring a 230 V AC operating coil and three normally open contacts (3 NO / 3PST-NO), this relay enables three separate electrical circuits to be switched simultaneously using a single control signal. As part of the established Finder 62 Series, it combines high-current switching capability with direct printed circuit board mounting.
The 62.23-4300 configuration incorporates three normally open contacts with a minimum 3 mm contact gap, making it particularly suitable for applications requiring increased separation between open contacts. Unlike the standard Finder 62.23 changeover version, this model provides three normally open switching paths rather than normally open and normally closed contacts. Its silver tin oxide (AgSnO2) contact material offers robust performance when switching demanding electrical loads, including applications with high short-duration inrush currents.
With a 16 A rated contact current, 230 V AC coil supply and 4000 VA AC-1 switching capacity, the Finder 62.23.8.230.4300 is suitable for industrial heating equipment, lighting control, electrical power management and automated machinery. Its PCB solder-terminal construction enables direct integration into electronic control assemblies, making it a practical choice for OEM manufacturers, electrical engineers and industrial equipment designers.

Three-Pole High-Current Switching with Enhanced Contact Separation
The Finder 62.23.8.230.4300 uses an electromagnetic mechanism to control three normally open electrical circuits. When its 230 V AC coil is energised, all three contacts close, allowing current to flow through the connected circuits. When coil power is removed, the contacts return to their normally open positions. This 3PST-NO configuration is particularly useful where three circuits must be switched together without requiring changeover functionality.
The Finder 62.23-4300 variant provides a minimum 3 mm contact gap, reinforced coil-to-contact insulation and durable AgSnO2 contacts. These characteristics make it suitable for electrical equipment requiring increased open-contact separation and reliable power switching. Its PCB-mounted design is particularly valuable in industrial controllers, heating equipment and OEM electronic assemblies where three-pole switching must be incorporated directly into the control board. Contact ratings and PCB conductor sizing must be assessed for the intended load and operating conditions.
