Schneider Electric 8501KF12V14 Flange Relay

Schneider Electric's Square D 8501KF12V14 flange-mount plug-in relay is a DPDT (two-pole, double-throw) device with an eight-pin interface and a 24 VAC coil, designed for side-flange mounting in control panels. It provides two normally open and two normally closed contacts for switching multiple circuits from a single relay, enabling compact motor and logic control in industrial applications. According to Schneider Electric, the 8501KF12V14 can handle up to 1 HP at 277 VAC and up to 10 A resistive at 277 VAC; distributor listings and product sheets also show ratings around 12 A at 240 VAC for similar 8501KF-family relays. The flange-mount format accepts standard Square D 8501 family bases, facilitating quick panel integration in machine controls where a 24 VAC coil is preferred for control logic and signal interfacing. Common uses include controlling motors, pumps, conveyors, and interlock circuits in automation panels, with a compact form factor that combines dual switching paths in a single, easy-to-wire package.
