Product Information

Full details

This Finder 80 Series Star Delta Timer Relay (MPN: 80.82.0.240.0000) is designed for electricians and automation specialists needing to control the starting sequence of star-delta motors. Its primary benefit is providing a reliable and compact solution for managing motor start-up transitions, reducing inrush current. A potential caveat is its reliance on specific wiring for correct star-delta operation. Key features include a modular 17.5mm width, dual 6A/250VAC normally open contacts, and a wide operating voltage range of 24-240V AC/DC.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the primary application for this timer relay?

This relay is specifically designed for controlling the start-up sequence of star-delta motors, helping to reduce inrush current and mechanical stress during motor acceleration.

What is the operating voltage range?

The operating voltage range is 24-240V AC or DC, offering flexibility for various power supply systems.

What is the contact rating?

The relay features two normally open (NO) contacts, each rated at 6A and 250VAC.

How is the timing adjusted?

Timing is typically adjusted via a physical knob or dial on the front of the device, allowing users to set the duration for the star connection phase.

Can this relay be used for general-purpose timing?

While it provides a timed delay, it is optimized for the specific sequence of star-delta motor starting. For general-purpose timing, other timer relays from the Finder series might be more suitable.

What does the 17.5mm width signify?

The 17.5mm width refers to its compact, modular size, designed to fit standard 35mm DIN rails and allow for space-efficient installation in electrical control panels.

What type of connections does it use?

It uses screw terminal connections for secure and reliable wiring.

Troubleshooting

Relay does not switch after power-up

Verify the input voltage is within the 24-240V AC/DC range and correctly connected. Check that the timing adjustment is set appropriately.

Motor does not start correctly or runs continuously in star mode

Confirm that the wiring for the star-delta transition is correctly implemented according to the motor and relay's specific diagrams. Ensure the output contacts are wired to the delta contactor control.

Contacts welded or not making/breaking circuit

Check if the load current exceeds the 6A rating. Inspect contacts for physical damage or signs of arcing; replace if necessary.

Timing is inconsistent

Ensure a stable power supply. Check for any environmental factors (e.g., extreme temperatures) that might affect performance. If the issue persists, consider replacement.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Compact and space-saving design.
  • Wide operating voltage range simplifies installation.
  • Reliable dual NO contacts for control.
  • Specifically designed for efficient star-delta motor starting.
  • Secure screw terminal connections.

Cons

  • Requires correct wiring for star-delta functionality.
  • Not suitable for direct motor power switching beyond contact ratings.
  • Timing adjustments may require access to the device settings.
  • Limited to star-delta applications, not general-purpose timing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure power is disconnected before installation.
  2. Wire the relay according to the specific star-delta motor starting schematic, paying close attention to the timer's control input and output terminals.
  3. Connect the power supply to the designated voltage input terminals (24-240V AC/DC).
  4. Set the desired star timing duration using the device's adjustment knob or interface.
  5. Connect the load via the dual NO contacts, ensuring the current does not exceed the 6A/250VAC rating.

Compatibility:

  • Compatible with AC and DC control circuits within the 24-240V range.
  • Designed for integration into standard modular DIN rail systems (17.5mm width).
  • Suitable for use with motors requiring star-delta starting.

Care:

  • Keep the device clean and free from dust and debris. Use a dry cloth for cleaning; avoid solvents.
  • Ensure adequate ventilation around the control panel to prevent overheating.
  • Periodically check wiring connections for tightness and signs of corrosion.
