Timer Relay Eti-Polam CRME-101 — 10-function time relay, MPN 002471557

Eti-Polam CRME-101 is a 10-function timer relay designed for time-controlled switching in automation, lighting and industrial control panels. The device provides multiple selectable timing modes—such as delayed on/off, pulse generation and cyclic switching—allowing configuration of varied time sequences for retrofit or new-install applications. The relay is intended to integrate into control circuits where precise, repeatable time control is required.

Advantages

The CRME-101 offers ten distinct timing functions in a single compact unit, enabling flexibility without needing multiple separate timers. It supports adjustable time settings and clear selection of operating modes, which simplifies commissioning and makes it easier to adapt to different control tasks. The relay’s construction is suited for panel mounting and is optimized for applications where reliable, repeatable switching sequences are needed.

Suitable for

• Time-controlled lighting (delayed switch-off, staircase lighting, timed scenes)
• Industrial control panels requiring cyclic or pulse outputs
• Automation tasks that need delayed-on or delayed-off switching
• Retrofit installations where a compact multi-function timer replaces several devices

When it may not be suitable

The CRME-101 is intended for discrete time-control functions and may not be suitable where complex programmable logic, network communication (e.g., Modbus, Ethernet) or advanced sequence programming is required. It is not a replacement for programmable logic controllers or devices that need integrated sensors or extensive I/O expansion.

Key specifications

• Functionality: ten selectable timing functions including delayed on/off, pulse, and cyclic modes
• Application type: panel-mounted time relay for control and automation tasks
• Time range: adjustable timing intervals (selectable range across functions)
• Output type: relay switching output suitable for control circuits
• Mounting: designed for DIN-rail or panel mounting in standard control enclosures
• Build: compact multi-function timer suitable for retrofit and new installations

How to use

Install the CRME-101 in the control panel according to standard wiring practices and the manufacturer’s installation instructions. Select the desired timing function using the function selector, then set the required time interval using the time adjustment control. Connect the supply and the controlled circuit to the appropriate terminals, verify correct wiring, and perform test cycles to confirm timing behaviour. Adjust settings as needed to match the required sequence and operational conditions.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm the required timing functions and whether ten predefined modes meet the application needs
• Verify compatibility with the control voltage and output load of the existing system
• Ensure the form factor and mounting type fit the intended panel or enclosure space
• Check environmental and operating condition requirements (temperature, vibration) for the installation site

Usage recommendations

For reliable operation, perform initial commissioning tests under expected load conditions, document selected modes and time settings, and include the relay in routine maintenance checks to confirm consistent timing behaviour over time.
