Why Choose the Finder 22.22.8.120.4000 Modular Installation Relay?
The Finder 22.22.8.120.4000 is a robust 20 A modular installation relay designed for reliable electrical load switching in distribution boards, lighting control systems and building automation installations. Part of the Finder 22 Series, this electromagnetic relay features a 120 V AC operating coil and two normally open contacts for convenient remote switching of compatible electrical circuits.
Featuring a 2 NO (DPST-NO) contact configuration, the Finder 22.22.8.120.4000 enables two electrical circuits to be switched simultaneously using a single control signal. Its monostable operating mechanism ensures that both contacts return to their normally open positions when the coil supply is removed, providing predictable switching behaviour for electrical control applications.
Designed for direct installation onto a standard 35 mm DIN rail, this modular relay integrates into compatible electrical distribution boards and control cabinets. Its 20 A rated contacts and silver tin oxide (AgSnO2) contact material make it suitable for appropriately rated lighting, building services and general electrical switching applications.

Reliable Two-Pole Switching for Electrical Control and Building Automation
Modular installation relays provide a practical method of controlling electrical loads using a separate operating circuit. The Finder 22.22.8.120.4000 uses a 120 V AC electromagnetic coil to operate two normally open contacts, enabling compatible electrical circuits to be switched together from a single control signal.
When the coil is energised, both normally open contacts close and complete their respective load circuits. When the coil supply is removed, the relay returns to its unenergised state and both contacts open. This monostable switching arrangement is useful in installations where connected equipment must operate only while the appropriate control signal is present.
The relay's two-pole contact configuration simplifies applications requiring coordinated switching of two circuits. Its modular DIN rail mounting format allows integration alongside circuit protection devices, timers, monitoring relays and other electrical control components.
Before installation, connected loads must be assessed against the manufacturer's specified contact ratings, utilisation categories and inrush-current limits. The 120 V AC coil rating refers to the relay's operating supply and should not be confused with the permissible voltage of the switched load circuits.
