Finder 97.12 Relay Socket for 46 Series, 8-Pin, Screw Terminals, DIN Rail/Panel Mount, 10 A, 250 V AC, Grey

The Finder 97.12 relay socket stands out by offering a secure, industrial-grade connection for Finder 46 Series relays, combining a compact footprint with robust screw terminals and dual mounting options. Unlike generic sockets, it is engineered to match the exact pin layout and dielectric requirements of 46.52, 46.61, 46.62, 46.63, and 46.64 relays, ensuring reliable switching in demanding control panels.

Highlights

• Compatible with Finder 46 Series relays (2 CO, 8-pin)
• Rated for 10 A / 250 V AC, with 6 kV impulse withstand between coil and contacts
• Flexible mounting: 35 mm DIN rail or panel mount
• Screw terminals accept solid or stranded wires from 0.5 to 2.5 mm²
• Operating temperature range from -40 °C to +70 °C
• IP20 protection, grey thermoplastic housing (PA)
• Approvals: CE, cURus, EAC, RINA, VDE

In daily use

Installation is straightforward: strip wires to 7 mm, insert into the clearly marked screw terminals, and tighten to 0.5 Nm torque. The socket snaps onto a standard 35 mm DIN rail or can be fixed to a panel using the integrated mounting holes. Its compact dimensions (33 x 12.4 x 38.6 mm) save space in dense cabinets, while the high dielectric strength protects against voltage transients. The grey thermoplastic body resists heat and impact, maintaining integrity in industrial environments.
