Frequently Asked Questions – Electronic Timer


An Electronic Timer is used to control the timing of operations in automation systems, such as switching equipment ON or OFF after a preset delay or cycle.

  • Receives a start signal or power input.
  • Counts time as per the programmed delay or mode.
  • Switches the output ON or OFF when the set time condition is met.

Common types include:

  • ON-delay timers – Delay before output activation.
  • OFF-delay timers – Delay before output deactivation.
  • Interval timers – Maintain output ON for a set period.
  • Cyclic timers – Alternate ON/OFF cycles continuously.

GIC Electronic Timers are used in:

  • Motor control and protection
  • Star-delta motor starting
  • Conveyor belt sequencing
  • Pump and fan control
  • Lighting and HVAC systems

Key factors include:

  • Timing range and resolution
  • Number of functions supported
  • Input voltage compatibility
  • Display (analog/digital)
  • Mounting and size requirements
