Amperite 50C30 Thermostatic Tube-Type Delay Relay
The Amperite 50C30 is a thermostatic tube-type delay relay designed to provide precise time delays in electrical circuits. Utilizing a heater-actuated bimetallic strip, this relay offers reliable performance across various applications.
Key Features
- Time Delay: Fixed delay of 30 seconds.
- Voltage Compatibility: Operates on 50V AC or DC.
- Contact Configuration: Single Pole Single Throw (SPST) with normally closed (NC) contacts.
- Contact Rating: Supports up to 3A at 125V AC.
- Construction: Hermetically sealed to ensure durability and resistance to environmental factors such as moisture and altitude variations.
- Base Type: Standard octal base for easy integration into existing systems.
- Power Consumption: Approximately 2 watts, allowing for continuous operation without significant energy usage.
Applications
The 50C30 delay relay is suitable for applications requiring a fixed 30-second delay, including:
- Sequential control systems.
- Motor control circuits.
- Industrial automation processes.
- Protective circuits to prevent inrush currents.
Installation and Operation
Installation is straightforward with its standard octal base, facilitating quick replacement or integration. Upon application of the operating voltage, the internal heater activates, causing the bimetallic strip to bend and change the contact state after the specified delay period. The hermetically sealed design ensures consistent performance even in challenging environments.
