The inrush current and steady-state current must be taken into consider- resistance. In applications with significant vibration or shock, use of hold down ation when specifying a timer. springs or clips is recommended to secure a timer to its socket. Contact Protection Time Setting Switching an inductive load generates a counter-electromotive force (back EMF) The time range is calibrated at its maximum time scale; so it is desirable to use in the coil. The back EMF will cause arcing, which may shorten the contact life the timer at a setting as close to its maximum time scale as possible. For a more and cause imperfect contact. Application of a protection circuit is recommended accurate time delay, adjust the control knob by measuring the operating time to safeguard the contacts. with a watch before application. Temperature and Humidity Input Contacts Use the timer within the operating temperature and operating humidity ranges Use mechanical contact switch or relay to supply power to the timer. When and prevent freezing or condensation. After the timer has been stored below driving the timer with a solid-state output device (such as a two-wire proximity its operating temperature, leave the timer at room temperature for a sufficient switch, photoelectric switch, or solid-state relay), malfunction may be caused by period of time to allow it to return to operating temperatures before use. leakage current from the solid-state device. Since AC types comprise a capaci- tive load, the SSR dielectric strength should be two or more times the power voltage when switching the timer power using an SSR. Environment Generally, it is desirable to use mechanical contacts whenever possible to apply Avoid contact between the timer and sulfurous or ammonia gases, organic sol- power to a timer or its signal inputs.

Some Do not use the timer in an environment where such substances are prevalent. Do timers are specially designed so that signal inputs switch at a lower voltage not allow water to run or splash on the timer. than is used to power the timer (models designated as “B” type). Timing Accuracy Formulas Timing accuracies are calculated from the following formulas: = ± 1 x Maximum Measured Value – Minimum Measured Value x 100% Repeat Error 2 Maximum Scale Value = ± Tv - Tr x 100% Voltage Error Tr Tv: Average of measured values at voltage V Tr: Average of measured values at the rated voltage = ± Tt - T20 x 100% Temperature Error T20 Tt: Average of measured values at °C T20: Average of measured values at 20°C = ± Average of Measured Values - Set Value x 100% Setting Error Maximum Scale Value www.IDEC.com 880 Circuit Breakers Terminal Blocks Contactors Timers Relays & Sockets Signaling Lights Switches & Pilot Lights
