FAQs

What is the coil voltage for the Finder 38.62.0.024.0060?

The coil voltage is 24V AC/DC.

How many change-over contacts does this relay have?

This relay features 2 change-over (CO) contacts.

What is the maximum switching current?

The nominal switching current is 6A.

Can this relay be mounted on a standard DIN rail?

Yes, it is designed for standard 35mm DIN rail mounting.

What is the operating temperature range?

The relay operates reliably within a temperature range of -40°C to +70°C.

What type of terminals are used for connection?

It uses cage clamp terminals for quick and secure wiring.

What is the maximum switching voltage?

The maximum switching voltage is 400V.

Troubleshooting

Relay does not energize when coil voltage is applied.

Verify the coil voltage is exactly 24V AC or DC. Check that the polarity is correct if using DC. Ensure the power supply is functioning correctly and connections to A1/A2 terminals are secure.

Contacts are not switching (stuck open or closed).

Ensure the coil is receiving the correct voltage. Check if the load current exceeds the 6A rating. Inspect the contacts for any signs of welding or contamination. The maximum switching voltage of 400V should not be exceeded.

Intermittent operation or poor contact resistance.

Verify connections at the cage clamp terminals are tight and wires are fully inserted. Check for environmental factors like vibration or extreme temperatures. Ensure the load is within the specified voltage and current limits.

Relay overheats during operation.

Confirm the load current is within the 6A limit. Ensure the ambient temperature is within the -40°C to +70°C range. Check for proper ventilation around the relay in the control panel.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile switching with 2 CO contacts.
  • Easy and secure wiring via cage clamp terminals.
  • Suitable for a broad range of industrial temperatures.
  • Space-saving 6.2mm width for dense panel layouts.
  • Reliable operation with 24V AC/DC coil compatibility.

Cons

  • Maximum switching voltage of 400V may not suit all high-power applications.
  • Nominal current of 6A limits its use in high-current switching scenarios.
  • Requires specific DIN rail mounting hardware (not included).
  • Contact material (silver alloy) may require specific environmental considerations compared to other materials.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Mounting: Securely attach the relay to a standard 35mm DIN rail. Ensure the rail is properly grounded.
  2. Wiring: Connect the control signal to the coil terminals (A1 and A2), observing polarity if using DC. Connect the load circuits to the common, normally open, and normally closed contacts of the two change-over sets. Utilize the cage clamp terminals by inserting a stripped wire and ensuring firm contact.
  3. Power: Apply the appropriate 24V AC or DC power to the coil terminals.

Compatibility:

  • Coil Voltage: Compatible with 24V AC and 24V DC power sources. Ensure your power supply is stable and within tolerance.
  • Load Rating: Suitable for loads up to 6A at 400V. Do not exceed these limits to prevent premature failure.
  • Control Systems: Integrates well with PLCs, microcontrollers, and other control systems that can provide a 24V AC/DC signal.

Care:

  • Environment: Avoid excessive dust, moisture, and corrosive atmospheres. The operating temperature range is -40°C to +70°C.
  • Cleaning: If necessary, clean the exterior with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Do not use solvents or abrasive cleaners. Ensure the unit is powered off before cleaning.
  • Maintenance: Periodically check wiring connections for tightness. Inspect for any signs of physical damage or overheating.
