Finder 13.01.0.012.0000 DIN Rail Impulse Relay, 1 CO, 12 V AC/DC

Controlling lighting circuits from multiple points without complex wiring or continuous power draw is a common challenge in residential and commercial installations. The Finder 13.01.0.012.0000 impulse relay solves this by latching its single changeover contact with each pulse, allowing pushbuttons at any number of locations to toggle the same load.

Who is it for

Electricians and panel builders who need a compact, DIN rail mounted latching relay for lighting control in staircases, corridors, and large rooms. It suits both new installations and retrofits where a simple, reliable impulse switching solution is required.

Main features

• 1 changeover contact (SPDT) rated 16 A / 250 V AC, suitable for switching lighting and general loads up to 4000 VA.
• Coil voltage 12 V AC/DC, bistable operation: the relay changes state on each pulse and holds position without coil power.
• DIN rail mounting (EN 60715) in a single 17.5 mm module, saving space in distribution boards.
• Silver nickel (AgNi) contacts for long electrical life: 100,000 operations at rated load.
• Mechanical life of 1,000,000 cycles for dependable long-term service.
• Operating temperature range -40 to +40 °C, suitable for a wide range of environments.
• Protection degree IP20 at terminals and IP40 at housing, appropriate for installation inside enclosures.

Tips

Use this impulse relay with momentary pushbuttons wired in parallel; each press toggles the output. Ensure the coil supply is stable and within the specified 12 V AC/DC range. For inductive loads, consider appropriate contact protection to extend contact life.
