Omron H3FA Series Surface Solid State Timer, 24-Contact, 24 V dc, 1 → 10 s

Omron H3FA Series Solid State Timer, 1 to 10s Time Range, 24V DC Supply Voltage - H3FA-AU DC24

This solid-state timer is a Compact timing relay designed for control and automation tasks where precise DC timing is required. It operates from a 24V DC supply and provides adjustable delay functionality over a short-range interval, making it suitable for sequential control in electrical and mechanical systems. The device mounts on a surface and conforms to recognised safety approvals for industrial applications.

Features and Benefits:

• Time adjustment from 1 to 10 s for short-delay control
  Operates from 24V DC supply for direct DC system integration
  Rated for -10°C to +55°C for varied ambient conditions
  Approved to UL508 and CSA for industrial compatibility
  Surface mounting for straightforward panel or enclosure installation
  Solid-state design minimises mechanical wear and maintenance
