Why Choose the Finder 94.04.0SMA 14-Pin Relay Socket?
The Finder 94.04.0SMA is a robust 14-pin industrial relay socket with screw terminals, designed for reliable relay installation in electrical control panels, industrial automation systems and machinery control circuits. Part of the established Finder 94 Series, this black relay socket provides a secure electrical and mechanical connection for compatible Finder 55 Series general-purpose relays.
Featuring a 10 A rated current, 250 V AC rated voltage and a 14-position connection arrangement, the Finder 94.04.0SMA is particularly suitable for applications using the Finder 55.34 four-changeover relay. Its screw-terminal construction provides dependable field wiring, while the plug-in design allows compatible relays to be removed and replaced without disturbing permanent terminal connections.
The socket supports 35 mm DIN rail mounting and is supplied in the SMA configuration with a metal retaining clip for secure relay positioning. Its black housing distinguishes it from the standard blue versions of the Finder 94 Series. With a compact 27 mm width and compatibility with selected Finder relay accessories, it is a practical solution for panel builders, automation engineers and industrial maintenance teams.

Reliable Four-Changeover Relay Connections for Industrial Control
The Finder 94.04.0SMA relay socket provides a practical connection interface for compatible plug-in relays in industrial electrical control systems. Its 14-position arrangement is particularly suited to the Finder 55.34 relay, which provides four changeover contact sets and coil connections. This enables a single relay assembly to perform multiple switching or signalling functions within a control circuit.
When fitted with a compatible Finder 55.34 four-changeover relay, the socket provides access to four independent changeover contact sets. Each contact set can be used for suitable control, signalling or auxiliary switching tasks, allowing machine builders and automation engineers to simplify circuit layouts where several outputs must operate together.
The 94.04.0SMA uses conventional screw terminals to establish secure electrical connections between the relay and external wiring. Its DIN rail mounting arrangement enables efficient installation alongside other industrial control components, while the metal retaining clip helps prevent unintended relay movement during normal equipment operation.
The socket also supports selected Finder 99.02 coil indication and EMC suppression modules and compatible timing accessories. These optional modules can extend the functionality of an appropriate relay assembly by providing visual coil status indication, electrical interference suppression or timing control. Accessory selection must be matched to the installed relay and its coil voltage.
The black housing is useful where panel builders wish to distinguish different relay circuits or specify the black version of the Finder 94.04 socket. Because the socket itself is a passive connection component, the operating coil voltage and actual switching performance are determined by the compatible relay and any associated interface accessories.
