Push-button Timer Switches. Switches that provide convenient, economical lighting
Clipsal now introduces a complete range of reliable and extremely accurate electronic timers to suit a variety of applications.
The new range is available in two and three wire configurations, with each unit having a maximum load rating of 10A.
These electronic timers automatically turn the load off after a preset period, resulting in real energy and cost savings. All are available in either Standard Range or 2000 Series formats.
Two wire operation
Our two wire electronic timers with override function incorporate a new circuit that allows the control of a 10A load current (relay output), without the need for a neutral connection.
These devices require a minimum load of 40mA to operate correctly. If the load to be controlled is less than 40mA, a load capacitor should be connected between the Load and Active terminal of the timer, or a three wire timer should be used.
Three wire operation
The three wire devices offer a number of advantages over the two wire models, including a longer time out period, programmable load status indicator, selectable switch modes (normally open or normally closed contacts) and no minimum load requirements.
Three wire devices require a neutral connection for correct operation.
Remote operation
All Clipsal electronic timers feature a remote connection facility which allows any number of remote push-button switches to be connected between this terminal and the neutral, to remotely trigger the timer.
Contact function
The electronic timers feature a 10A load circuit suitable for both incandescent and fluorescent loads. Two wire devices feature normally open contacts, while three wire devices feature a programmable contact function.
The installer selects either normally open or normally closed contacts, by setting the appropriate DIP switch on the rear of the unit.
