There are three main components of Series 7000 Timing Relays: Calibrated Timing Head uses no needle valve, recirculates air under controlled pressure through a variable orifice to provide linearly adjustable timing. Patented design provides instant recycling, easy adjustment and long service life under severe operating conditions. Precision-Wound Potted Coil module supplies the initial motive force with minimum current drain. Total sealing without external leads eliminates moisture problems, gives maximum insulation value. Snap-Action Switch Assembly - custom-designed over-center mechanism provides greater contact pressure up to transfer time for positive, no flutter action. Standard switches are DPDT arrangement, with flexible beryllium copper blades and silver-cadmium oxide contacts. Special "timing-duty" design assures positive wiping action, sustained contact pressure and greater heat dissipation during long delay periods. Each of these subassemblies forms a self-contained module which is then assembled at the factory with the other two to afford a wide choice of operating types, coil voltages, and timing ranges. The squared design with front terminals and rear mounting permits the grouping of Series 7000 units side-by-side in minimum panel space. Auxiliary switches may be added in the base of the unit, without affecting the overall width or depth. |
