Percentage Timers

Panel Mount

The PTA Series is a microprocessor-based Percentage Timer that delivers reliable and accurate timing for critical applications where a repeating ON time of a fixed length cycle must be adjustable. These products provide an economical way to deliver precise and reliable repeat cycle timing in all types of industrial environments.  Typical applications include controls for irrigation, chemical feeding, electric heating & cooling, motors and lubrication systems.

FUNCTION: PERCENTAGE
Upon initial application of input voltage, the output is energized and time delay (t1) begins. Time Delay (t1) is adjustable as a percentage of the overall cycle time (t2). At the end of time delay (t1), the output is de-energized for the remainder of overall cycle (t2-t1). The sequence then repeats until input voltage is removed. If input voltage is removed and reapplied, the timing cycle will continue from where it left off when the input voltage was removed. A setting of 100% energizes the output continuously while a setting of 0% de-energizes the output continuously.

FUNCTION: PERCENTAGE (NO MEMORY)
Upon initial application of input voltage, the output is energized and time delay (t1) begins. Time Delay (t1) is adjustable as a percentage of the overall cycle time (t2). At the end of time delay (t1), the output is de-energized for the remainder of overall cycle (t2-t1). The sequence then repeats until input voltage is removed. If input voltage is removed and reapplied, the timing cycle will be reset. A setting of 100% energizes the output continuously while a setting of 0% de-energizes the output continuously.
