What is a timer?

A timer is a simple automation component which is used to manage actions over a period of time or control how long actions last.The timer is a control device which triggers an action according to a time and a function. After a predefined time has elapsed, the timer

closes or opens one or more contacts.

Timing cycles, whether single shot or repetitive, are started by latching inputs or pulsed inputs,

allowing a wide variety of functions to be created.

To execute which actions?

A timer can be used to trigger an action according to a predefined time. It can also be used to stagger actions over a period of time.

In any time-related application, the timer can play a role and can be used to:

• Run installations according to times that can be adjusted by the user
• Calibrate a machine running time
• Allow or prevent an action
• Delay an action
• Manage stopping/starting of a motor, pump, etc. (star delta)
• Make an LED flash
