Reliable Timing Control for Industrial Automation

Electronic timer relays such as the Finder 88.12.0.230.0002 provide time-dependent switching by controlling when relay contacts change state in response to an electrical supply or control signal. This enables engineers to introduce planned delays and timed operating sequences into industrial control systems.

The Finder 88 Series is designed for applications where electrical equipment must operate according to predetermined timing conditions. Multifunction timer relays offer greater flexibility than fixed-function timing devices, allowing a single component to support different control arrangements.

With two changeover output contacts, the Finder 88.12.0.230.0002 can provide switching paths for compatible control circuits. The normally open and normally closed contact arrangements allow engineers to incorporate timed switching into machinery sequencing, control signalling and automated equipment operation.

When selecting the relay for a particular application, the timing function, supply characteristics and switching load should be matched to the electrical circuit. The output contacts must be used within their applicable ratings, with suitable external protection and switching equipment where required.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial machinery timing and sequencing systems.
  • Electrical control panels and automation cabinets.
  • Delayed switching of industrial control equipment.
  • Conveyor systems and material handling machinery.
  • Packaging and manufacturing equipment.
  • Industrial motor control circuits using suitable external contactors.
  • Heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) control systems.
  • Automated process control installations.
  • Timed signalling and electrical control circuits.
  • Industrial pumps and ventilation equipment.
  • OEM machinery and electrical equipment manufacturing.
  • Maintenance and replacement of compatible industrial timer relays.
