Operator Interfaces, Switches & Relays


Compact timer relays

March 2009 Operator Interfaces, Switches & Relays

Phoenix Contact has introduced a new product range consisting of single function timer relays with 6,2 mm narrow casings. Compared with conventional timer relays, the narrow design allows for significant space savings in control cabinets.

The time settings can be made very precisely using the labelled knurled knob at the front. To protect against unintentional adjustments, the knob is recessed into the casing and adjusted using a screwdriver. With time settings ranging from 0,1 to 5 seconds and four different functions, these relays can be customised according to the demands of the given application.

The relays are powered from 24 V d.c. and output signals are transmitted using a floating change-over contact. Equivalent potentials can be quickly connected using a plug-in bridge system available in the PLC relay product range from Phoenix Contact. The PLC-V8 adapter, available as an accessory, can be used to quickly and securely connect Varioface system cables.

The devices can be used for various time control functions, eliminating the need for mini controllers in some situations. Since no programming is required both time and money are saved.
