Overview
The Square D 9050JCK15V20 is a general-purpose, plug-in on-delay timing relay designed for low-cost timing applications in industrial control circuits. Manufactured by Schneider Electric, this JCK-series timer features DPDT (double-pole, double-throw) contacts with an adjustable time range of 1.8 to 180 seconds, making it ideal for sequencing, startup delays, and protective timing functions across manufacturing, HVAC, material handling, and automation systems.
Key Features
- On-Delay Timing Mode: Time delay begins when input voltage is applied; contacts change state after delay is complete.
- Adjustable Timing Range: 1.8 to 180 seconds via knob adjustment on top of timer.
- DPDT Contact Configuration: 2 normally open (NO) and 2 normally closed (NC) contacts for flexible logic control.
- Plug-In Housing: Installs directly into 8501NR51 or 8501NR52 relay sockets for quick replacement and reliable electrical connection.
- Compact Footprint: Dimensions 4.2 x 2.6 x 2 inches; weight 0.24 lbs for easy panel mounting.
- Industrial-Grade Ratings: 10A resistive at 120/240 VAC and 30 VDC; 3A inductive; 1/3 HP NC, 1/2 HP NO at 120/240 VAC.
