Why Choose the Finder 65.61.9.012.0300S Power Relay?
The Finder 65.61.9.012.0300S is a robust 30 A electromagnetic power relay designed for dependable switching of electrical loads in industrial automation, machinery control and commercial equipment. Featuring a 12 V DC operating coil and a single normally open (SPST-NO) contact, this relay enables a low-voltage control circuit to switch higher-power electrical equipment.
Part of the established Finder 65 Series, the 65.61.9.012.0300S combines a high-current contact system with direct printed circuit board (PCB) mounting and bifurcated solder terminals. Its silver cadmium oxide (AgCdO) contact material is designed for reliable power switching, while the minimum 3 mm contact gap provides enhanced separation between the contacts when open.
With a 30 A resistive contact rating at 250 V AC, a 12 V DC coil and a compact PCB-compatible design, this Finder power relay is suited to industrial heating systems, electrical control assemblies, automated machinery and OEM equipment. It provides a practical solution where dependable load switching and substantial open-contact separation are required.

Reliable High-Current Switching with Enhanced Contact Separation
The Finder 65.61.9.012.0300S allows a 12 V DC control circuit to operate a separate, higher-power electrical load. When the relay coil is energised, its normally open contact closes and completes the load circuit. Removing the coil supply causes the contact to open, interrupting power to the connected equipment.
A key feature of the 65.61-0300 configuration is its minimum 3 mm contact gap. This provides increased physical separation between the open contacts, making the relay suitable for equipment designs where enhanced contact separation is required. Any use for safety-related disconnection must still be assessed against the relevant equipment standards and circuit design.
The combination of a 30 A switching rating, AgCdO contact material and PCB mounting makes this relay a practical choice for industrial electronic assemblies. Its 12 V DC coil can be operated by a suitably rated control circuit, allowing electronic controllers to switch heating elements, machinery functions and other compatible electrical loads. Appropriate coil suppression, load protection and PCB conductor sizing should be considered during installation.
