Time Relay FF PCR-513 single-function 230V 10A

The Time Relay FF PCR-513 single-function 230V 10A is a compact timing module for control cabinets and DIN-rail installations. Designed for 230 V mains supply, it performs a single timing function to control electrical circuits with switching currents up to 10 A. The relay provides reliable timed switching for on-delay or off-delay applications in lighting, heating, ventilation, and basic motor control, with a form factor suited to panel or rail mounting.

Advantages

This single-function time relay combines a small footprint with a clear functional purpose: stable timing on a 230 V supply and safe switching of loads up to 10 A. Its compact design simplifies installation in distribution boards and control cabinets, while standardized terminals enable straightforward wiring. The device is intended for use where a single, repeatable timing action is required, reducing the need for larger multi-function controllers and facilitating predictable automation behavior.

Suitable for

• Time-controlled lighting circuits (staircase lights, corridor lighting)
• Heating and pump control where fixed delays are needed
• Basic motor start/stop sequences with time delays
• Sequential control in simple automation panels

Key specifications

• Supply voltage: 230 V AC
• Maximum switching current: 10 A
• Single timing function: on-delay or off-delay depending on wiring/configuration
• Mounting: DIN-rail or panel mounting compatible housing
• Connection: screw terminal connectors for power and load wiring
• Typical application: control cabinet and distribution board installation

How to use

Install the relay on a standard DIN rail or secure it in the control panel according to the mounting instructions. Connect the 230 V supply to the designated input terminals and wire the load to the relay output, observing polarity and protective earthing where required. Set the timing function as indicated by the device labelling or manual and verify the selected delay through a trial operation before placing the relay into regular service. Ensure all wiring is performed with power disconnected and in accordance with local electrical regulations.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate overcurrent protection and fuses sized for the connected load, and avoid switching inductive loads above the rated current without additional suppression. For reliable operation, mount the relay in a cool, dry location within a control cabinet, and perform periodic inspections of terminal tightness and contact behavior in installations with frequent switching cycles.
