Finder continues to strengthen its offering of solutions for industrial automation with the expansion of its innovative 6K Series. This new range of industrial contactors has been specifically designed to handle high-power electrical loads safely, efficiently, and reliably, making them the ideal choice for electrical panels, industrial machinery, and demanding applications in power control and distribution environments.
In today’s industrial process landscape, where operational efficiency directly depends on the quality and reliability of electrical components, Finder presents a solution that responds to the growing needs of the sector.
The new 6K Series models—6K.04, 6K.13, and 6K.14—are characterized by their compact design, high mechanical and electrical robustness, and the use of AgSnO₂ contacts, a material especially suitable for handling high peak currents. All models comply with IEC EN 60947-4-1, ensuring installation in compliance with international safety standards
Key technical features:
Nominal currents: 9 A to 74 A at AC3 400 V.
Power handling: 4 to 37 kW at AC3 400 V.
Wide operating temperature range: –40°C to +90°C.
Versatile mounting: panel or 35 mm DIN rail (EN 60715).
Available supply voltages (depending on model):
– AC: 24, 48, 110, and 230 V
– DC: 12, 24, 48, 60, 72, and 110 V
Contact diagrams adapt to different operating configurations:
All NO contacts (normally open)
3 NO + 1 NC, or 3 NO + 1 NO with 2 A auxiliary contacts at AC15
Option to incorporate front auxiliary modules (one or two poles) in different configurations. Integrated thermal protection
Complementing the 6K Series, Finder also presents new thermal protection relays for different contactor types:
6K.T0 for the 6K.04 model
6K.T1 for the 6K.13 and 6K.14 models
Both relays offer IP20 protection and AgNi contacts (1 NO + 1 NC), and offer key features for the safety and maintenance of electrical systems:
Adjustable trip threshold
Stop button
Reset button (manual or automatic on the 6K.T1 model)
Adjustable pin spacing for precise integration (6K.T1 only)
Dedicated terminals for auxiliary contacts
Versatile Applications
Thanks to their flexibility and high performance, the 6K Series contactors are particularly suitable for a wide variety of industrial applications. Their robust and compact design, combined with their advanced technical features, make them the ideal solution for power generation and distribution panels, efficient industrial motor management, automation of machinery in demanding production environments, as well as for control systems in complex industrial processes that require reliability, precision, and operational safety.
With this expansion, Finder reaffirms its commitment to innovation and the development of solutions that meet the current demands of the electrical and industrial sectors.
