Overview
The Square D 9050JCK12V20 is a general-purpose plug-in timing relay designed for reliable, adjustable on-delay timing in industrial control systems. 9050JCK plug in timers are designed to provide low cost timing in a plug in housing. It supports coil voltages of 120 VAC and 110 VDC and mounts via a plug-in socket for easy installation. This used unit is fully functional and ready to serve motor starters, sequential processes, and automation equipment where cost-effective timing is essential.
Key Features
- DPDT contact configuration rated for 10 amperes resistive at 120 VAC, 240 VAC, and 30 VDC
- Timing range of 0.3 to 30 seconds is easily adjustable with a knob on the top of the timer
- On delay timing mode — when the input voltage is applied, the time delay begins; relay contacts change state after time delay is complete
- Plugs into an 8501NR51 or 8501NR52 relay socket for DIN-rail or panel mounting
- UL listed when the proper 8501NR relay socket is used, UL component recognized and CSA certified
Technical Specifications
- Contact Configuration: DPDT (Double Pole Double Throw)
- Resistive Load Rating (DPDT): 10 amperes at 120 VAC, 240 VAC and 30 VDC; 3 amperes inductive at 120 VAC, 240 VAC and 30 VDC; 1/3 HP on the NC contacts at 120 VAC and 240 VAC; 1/2 HP on the NO contacts at 120 VAC and 240 VAC
- Coil Voltage: 120 VAC / 110 VDC
- Timing Range: 0.3 to 30 seconds
- Timing Mode: On-Delay (adjustable)
- Socket Compatibility: 8501NR51 or 8501NR52
- Mounting: Plug-in socket (DIN rail or panel compatible)
- Certifications: UL listed, UL component recognized, CSA certified
- Frequency: 50–400 Hz
Typical Applications
The 9050JCK12V20 is ideal for motor control, pump start-stop sequencing, process timing delays, conveyor automation, and general industrial relay logic. Its low cost and robust construction make it suitable for:
- Motor soft-start and sequencing
- Dwell time and delay-on-operate functions
- Machine cycle timing
- Pump and fan control circuits
- Panel-mount automation systems
