Delay On Make Timer – Product Description A Delay On Make Timer is an electronic or electromechanical device used to delay the switching on of a load after power is applied. Commonly used in HVAC systems, refrigeration units, compressors, and other electrical equipment, it helps prevent short cycling, surge currents, and equipment damage by ensuring a time delay before startup. Applications Air conditioners and refrigeration compressors HVAC systems Pumps and fans Industrial automation systems Lighting circuits with delayed activation Preventing power-on surges in sensitive equipment Features Adjustable time delay – Set custom delay durations (typically 0.1 sec to 10 min) Solid-state or relay-based design – Reliable operation in various environments Wide voltage compatibility – Available in 24V, 120V, 240V, etc. Prevents short cycling – Ideal for protecting compressors and motors DIN rail or panel mount options – Easy to install in control panels LED indicator – Shows timing operation status (on supported models) Specifications Timing Range: Adjustable (commonly 0.1 seconds to 10 minutes) Voltage Rating: 12V – 480V AC/DC (varies by model) Contact Type: SPST, SPDT (varies) Mounting Type: Plug-in, DIN rail, or panel mount Output Current: Up to 10A Reset Type: Automatic or manual Operating Temperature: -20°C to 60°C Certifications: UL, CE, RoHS (model dependent) Got Questions? Need help choosing the right delay time setting for your application? Wondering if this timer is compatible with your compressor or control circuit?
