DIN-rail relay module Eltako FTN61NP-230V 30100130 — 230V AC, 16A switching

The Eltako FTN61NP-230V is a compact DIN-rail relay module for switching 230 V AC circuits with a rated switching current of up to 16 A. Designed for integration into electrical distribution boards and control panels, the module provides reliable on/off control of resistive and inductive loads while occupying a minimal rail space. The unit is suitable for professional electrical installations where a durable, serviceable relay is required for lighting, small motors and building automation tasks.

Advantages

The module features a space-saving DIN-rail housing that simplifies mounting and wiring in standard distribution enclosures. Its 230 V AC coil voltage matches common mains installations, eliminating the need for auxiliary transformers in typical European setups. With a 16 A contact rating the relay supports a wide range of household and commercial loads. The device is built to industry standards for electrical switching, providing predictable performance and long-term usability in control circuits.

Key specifications

How to use

Mount the relay module on a standard DIN rail inside a distribution board or control cabinet and secure it according to installation regulations. Connect the mains supply to the coil terminals specified for 230 V AC and wire the load through the relay contact following local wiring codes. Verify correct polarity and protective earth connections where applicable. After wiring, test the switching function at no-load and then under actual load conditions to confirm proper operation.

Recommendations

Install and service the relay only by qualified personnel. Ensure that the connected load does not exceed the 16 A rating and that all wiring and protective devices comply with applicable electrical standards. For switching inductive loads or motors, consider appropriate inrush and thermal protection; use contact protection measures if necessary to prolong relay life.
