305 SERIES GP TIMER Distributed by:
MOTOR-DRIVEN ANALOG RESET TIMER T&C Industrial Controls
Noted for its circuit flexibilty,
the 305E also provides the
highest accuracy among analog
timers. Available for either
ON-Delay or OFF-Delay operation,
the 305E provides delay, interval
or pulse timing function
for up to 7 load circuits
through two instantaneous and
two delayed switches.
It features a plug-in design
and cycle progress indication.
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
HIGHEST ACCURACY FASTEST RESET LONGEST LIFE
Because of its exclusive infinite engagement cluth, the 305 has a repeat accuracy of 0.2%, highest of any timer in its class. All 305 timers reset to a full-scale setting within 0.1 second, proportionately faster for shorter settings. With an average mechanical life expectancy of over 5,000,000 operations before the first failure, the 305 is the leader in its class.
PLUG-IN AND DUST-TIGHT DESIGN CIRCUIT FLEXIBILITY PILOT LIGHT
By virtue of its true plug-in design, the body of a 305E can be replaced in seconds without disturbing the housing or disconnecting the wiring. Its gasketed dial assembly forms a dust-tight seal against the housing, whether panel or surface-mounted. All the contacts of its two instantaneous and two delayed load switches are externally accessible at a 14 point terminal block. A built-in pilot light indicates that the timer is running.

UL Recognized (AC units only) E24305, CSA 47886.

 

The 305 is a synchronous motor-driven timer
with an electrically operated clutch equipped
either for ON-Delay or OFF-Delay operation.
ON DELAY
When power is applied (start signal ON), the
clutch solenoid is energized. Two things
happen immediately and simultaneously, the
instantaneous switches transfer from one set of
contacts to the other, and the motor begins to
drive the cycle progress pointer toward zero.
At the end of the timed period, the pointer trips
one of the delayed switches, a brief time later
(about 1/2% of full scale), the other delayed
switch is tripped, stopping the timer motor but
leaving the clutch engaged. The timer does not
reset until power to the clutch is removed.
OFF DELAY
Timing starts when power is removed (start
signal OFF), from the spring loaded, normally
engaged clutch. The timer is reset when power
is restored to the clutch solenoid;
simultaneously, the instantaneous contacts are
tripped. Action of the delayed contacts is the
same as with ON-Delay timers. A power
outage stops the motor but does not reset
the OFF-Delay 305.
