- Refer to the circuit shown in Figure 25–5. Assume that timer TR1 is set for a delay of 10 seconds and timer TR2 is set for a delay of 5 seconds. When the START button is pressed, the motor starts. After 10 seconds the S1 contacts open and the motor continues to accelerate, but never reaches full speed. After a delay of about 30 seconds, the motor trips out on overload. Which of the following could cause this problem? TR1 coil is open. S2 coil is open. S1 coil is open. R coil is open.arrow_forwardTo answer the following questions refer to the circuit shown in Figure 4114. Temperature switch TS1 is shown as: a. Normally open b. Normally closed c.

- Name Section 5-2: Line Diagrams-Signals, Decisions, and Actions In the following application, a temperature switch controls a heating contactor and a flow switch is used to ensure there is enough air flow. If there is not enough air flow, an alarm is sounded. Complete the required information. 1. List all the signal devices in the circuit. 2. List all the action devices in the circuit. 3. List the decision part of the circuit that automatically sounds the alarm if there is a problem. 4. When the heating element is on during normal operation, is the flow switch open or closed?
