IDEC Relays GT3A-3AF20 Timer
For industrial automation and complex HVACR control logic, the IDEC GT3A-3AF20 timer is a staple in a technician's kit. This 8-pin plug-in analog timer is designed for high-density DIN rail or panel mounting using standard octal sockets. Operating on a universal 100-240Vac input voltage, it eliminates the need for multiple stocked SKUs for different line voltages. The unit features four selectable operation modes?ON-Delay, Interval, and two Cycle modes (ON-first or OFF-first)?adjustable via a recessed rotary switch to prevent accidental changes. With a massive selectable time range from 0.1 seconds to 180 hours, it handles everything from motor soft-start delays to long-duration process ventilation. The DPDT (Double Pole Double Throw) delayed contacts are rated for 5A resistive loads, providing reliable switching for contactors or auxiliary signaling. Integrated LED indicators provide immediate visual feedback for power and output status, making on-site troubleshooting significantly faster for any contractor.
Key Benefits for Contractors- Universal Power Compatibility: The 100-240Vac auto-ranging input handles standard commercial and industrial voltages without additional transformers.
- Multifaceted Logic: Supports four distinct functions, including ON-Delay and Flicker/Cycle modes, providing flexibility for diverse application needs.
- Precision Timing: High repeat accuracy of +/- 0.2% ensures consistent performance in critical sequence-of-operation tasks.
- Simple Installation: The circular 8-pin terminal base allows for rapid "swap-and-go" replacement in existing control panels.
What socket is required for mounting?
The GT3A-3AF20 is an 8-pin octal base timer. For standard DIN rail mounting, use the IDEC SR2P-06 or SR2P-05 socket. For panel mounting, the SR2P-511 is the go-to choice.
How do I change the timing function?
Use a small flat-head screwdriver to turn the "Mode" selector on the face of the unit. Ensure you cycle through the options (A, B, C, or D) while the unit is powered down to ensure the logic resets correctly for the new configuration.
Can this handle high-amperage blower motors directly?
The DPDT contacts are rated for 5A. While sufficient for small fans or pilot duty, we recommend using this timer to trigger a definite purpose contactor for high-horsepower motors to protect the internal relay life.
