Forming part of the Red Box range of locally manufactured products from Timecount is a new multifunction, multirange timer which replaces 48 standard timers.
A single PPI instrument can be used for a wide range of applications such as on-delay, off-delay, equal repeating or single function, etc making it ideal as a timer to hold in stock. Competitively priced at around 40% less than comparable imports, the timers are supplied for use with a standard 11-pin base. Functions and time ranges are DIP switch-selectable. Time is adjustable via the potentiometer on the front of the timer.
The seven time ranges are: 0,02 to 1 s; 0,15 to 10 s; 1 s to 1 min; 10 s to 10 min; 1 min to 1 h; 10 min to 10 h; 22 min to 24 h and 3 h 45 min to 240 h. Standard AC/DC voltages can be accepted. Two changeover relays are standard and capable of carrying a 5 A resistive load at 250 V a.c.
