Program Plan Intro

a.

Mechanical timing relays:

  • The main purpose of mechanical timing relays is to delay the opening and closing of contacts for circuit control.
  • Its operation is almost similar to that of a control relay.
  • The only difference is that the contacts of a mechanical timing relay are used to operate at a preset time interval, that is, after the coil is energized or de-energized.
  • One example for mechanical timing relay is Pneumatic timing relay.
  • There are two different arrangements for mechanical timing relays, such as on-delay timer and off-delay timer.
  • Each type will have different kinds of contacts such as closed contacts and open contacts.

Explanation of Solution

b.

Normally Closed Timed Open (NCTO) contact:

The symbol used to represent a NCTO contact is given below.

Explanation of Solution

c.

Normally Open Timed Open (NOTO) contact:

The symbol used to represent a NOTO contact is given below.

  • NOTO contact is an off-delay time based contact...

Explanation of Solution

d.

Normally Closed Timed Closed (NCTC) contact:

The symbol used to represent a NCTC contact is given below.

  • NCTC contact is an off-delay time based contact...
