Why Choose the Finder 60.12.8.125.0040 General Purpose Power Relay?

The Finder 60.12.8.125.0040 is a reliable two-pole electromechanical power relay designed for electrical switching, industrial automation and machinery control applications. As part of the established Finder 60 Series general purpose relay range, it combines a 125 V AC operating coil, two changeover contacts and a robust plug-in construction to provide dependable switching in industrial electrical installations.

Featuring a DPDT (double-pole double-throw) contact configuration, this relay allows two independent electrical circuits to be switched simultaneously using a single control signal. Its silver nickel (AgNi) contacts provide reliable electrical conductivity and switching performance, while the electromechanical design offers galvanic isolation between the coil and contact circuits. The relay is a monostable, non-latching device, meaning its contacts return to their normal positions when the operating coil is de-energised.

With a 10 A rated contact current, 250 V AC rated contact voltage and 125 V AC nominal coil voltage, the Finder 60.12.8.125.0040 is suitable for industrial control circuits, auxiliary switching, signalling equipment and electrical machinery. Its 8-pin octal plug-in connection enables straightforward installation with compatible Finder 90 Series relay sockets, while the integrated lockable test button and mechanical indicator support convenient testing, commissioning and maintenance.

Reliable Electromechanical Switching for Industrial Control

General purpose power relays such as the Finder 60.12.8.125.0040 provide a dependable method of controlling electrical circuits through an electromagnetic switching mechanism. When the 125 V AC coil is energised, the internal armature changes the state of the relay's two changeover contacts, allowing connected loads to be switched according to the control signal. When the coil supply is removed, the contacts return to their normal positions.

The Finder 60 Series is designed for industrial control systems requiring reliable switching, flexible installation and straightforward maintenance. Its silver nickel contacts, robust electromechanical construction and convenient octal plug-in connection make it suitable for control panel manufacturers, automation engineers and industrial maintenance professionals. The integrated lockable test button and mechanical indicator also simplify commissioning and troubleshooting by allowing relay operation to be checked during maintenance procedures.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial automation and machinery control systems.
  • Electrical control panels and industrial distribution cabinets.
  • PLC-controlled relay interface and auxiliary switching circuits.
  • Control of contactors and auxiliary electrical equipment.
  • Industrial signalling, alarm and indication systems.
  • Electrical interlocking and control logic circuits.
  • Manufacturing and production machinery.
  • Process control and industrial automation equipment.
  • Building automation and electrical control installations.
  • Motor control circuits within the relay's specified switching capacity.
  • Maintenance and replacement of compatible Finder 60 Series relays.
