Timer Delay Relays

Time delay relays are basically control relays with a built-in time delay. Their operational function is to control an event determined by a particular time. The difference between a relay and a time delay relay is that when the output contacts open & close on a control relay, it occurs when voltage is applied and then removed from the coil. On time delay relays, the contacts can open or close before or after a period of time.

Time delay relays feature a variety of timing functions: On Delay, Off Delay, Single Shot, Interval, Flasher, repeat cycle and many more. The triggering of a Timer Relay is either via an applied input voltage or the closing or opening of a trigger signal. Trigger signals can be achieved in two ways, either via a control switch or via an input voltage.

Time Delay Relays are generally used in many industrial process control and consumer applications including: Lighting circuits, motor start control, safety control, conveyor belt sequence delays etc.
