Overview
The Heinemann HB2-533-XBX is a proven industrial time delay relay designed for 36V DC applications. Built with Silic-O-Netic aluminized steel contact material, this relay delivers reliable and repeatable timing control across thousands of cycles. The DPDT (Double-Pole, Double-Throw) configuration provides flexible switching for both normally-open and normally-closed contact arrangements, making it ideal for equipment startup sequences, motor control, safety interlocks, and process automation.
Key Features
- Silic-O-Netic contact technology for long contact life and low contact bounce
- DPDT switching configuration with dual independent circuits
- 90-second adjustable time delay
- 36V DC rated coil voltage
- Vertical mount design with 8-pin socket connection
- Compact form factor for panel-mount or relay rack installations

Replaces / Drop-In Replacement For
Verify compatibility with your system integrator before ordering, as relay substitutions require confirmation of coil voltage, contact configuration, time delay range, and socket compatibility. The HB2-533-XBX is a Heinemann-manufactured unit and should be cross-referenced against equivalent models from other manufacturers if replacement is needed.
