Application
The CT-S range timers are designed for use in industrial applications. They operate over a universal
range of supply voltages and a large time delay range, within compact dimensions. The easy-to-set
front-face potentiometers, with direct reading scales, provide accurate time delay adjustment.

Operating mode
The CT-AHS with 2 c/o contacts offers 10 time ranges, from 0.05 s to 300 h. The time delay range is
rotary switch selectable on the front of the unit. The fine adjustment of the time delay is made via an
internal potentiometer, with a direct reading scale, on the front of the unit.
Timing is displayed by a flashing green LED labelled U/T.

Function diagram
B OFF-delay (Delay on break)
This function requires continuous supply voltage at terminals A1/B1/B2-A2 for timing.
Timing is controlled by a volt-free control contact, connected to terminals Y1-Z2. If the control contact
is closed, the output relays energize. If the control contact is opened, the selected time delay starts
(minimum control pulse length is 20 ms). The green LED flashes during timing. When the time delay is
complete, the output relays de-energize and the flashing green LED turns steady.
If control contact Y1-Z2 closes before the time delay is complete, the time delay is reset and the output
relays remain energized.
If the front-face sliding switch is set to the “Inst.” position, the 2nd c/o contact energizes immediately
upon application of the supply voltage.
