Time Relay FF PCR-513-16 – programmable/interval timing module, model PCR-513-16

FF PCR-513-16 is a programmable time relay designed for precise control of time-dependent switching tasks in industrial and building automation. This modular timing module offers configurable delay and interval functions to manage sequences and timed operations for electrical loads such as lighting, motors, and pumps. The device is intended for installation in control panels and DIN-rail systems where accurate, repeatable timing and straightforward integration into control circuits are required.

Advantages

The programmable logic and multiple timing modes of the FF PCR-513-16 allow users to set delays and intervals with repeatability and stability. Its compact, modular design simplifies mounting in standard DIN-rail enclosures and enables neat wiring inside control cabinets. The relay provides reliable switching of loads according to configured timing parameters, helping to coordinate sequences and reduce manual intervention in routine operations.

Suitable for

• Timed switching of lighting systems in commercial and industrial buildings
• Control of motors and pumps requiring start/stop delays
• Sequenced activation of machinery and production equipment
• Automation panels and retrofit applications needing programmable time functions

Key specifications

• Programmable timing modes: delay and interval functions
• Adjustable time range for on/off intervals (user-configurable)
• Modular form factor suitable for DIN-rail mounting
• Electrical relay output for switching external loads
• Screw or terminal connections for control and load wiring
• Designed for control-panel installation and automated circuits

How to use

Mount the PCR-513-16 on a standard DIN rail inside an appropriate electrical enclosure. Connect the control supply and the load circuits according to the wiring diagram supplied by the system designer or installer, ensuring power is disconnected during installation. Configure the desired timing mode and set time parameters using the module's programming interface or adjustment controls. After configuration, restore power and test the timing functions with the connected load to confirm correct operation and adjust settings if required.

Usage recommendations

Verify compatibility of the relay's output ratings with the connected loads and observe all applicable electrical safety standards. Use appropriate overload protection for motors and inductive loads, and ensure mounting and wiring are carried out by qualified personnel. Periodically inspect connections and test timing accuracy as part of routine maintenance.
