Time Delay Relay
Discription
A time delay relay is a relay that stays on for a certain amount of time once activated. This time delay relay is made up of a simple adjustable timer circuit which controls the actual relay. The time is adjustable from 0 to about 20 seconds with the parts specified. The current capacity of the circuit is only limited by what kind of relay you decide to use.
Circuit diagram
Parts:
- C1 10uf 16V Electrolytic Capacitor
- C2 0.01uf Ceramic Disc Capacitor
- R1 1 Meg Pot
- R2 10 K 1/4 Watt Resistor
- D1,D2 1N914 Diodes
- U1 555 Timer IC
- RELAY 9V Relay
- S1 Normally Open Push Button Switch
- MISC Board, Wire, Socket For U1
Notes:
- R1 adjusts the on time.
- You can use a different capacitor for C1 to change the maximum on time.
- S1 is used to activate the timing cycle. S1 can be replaced by a NPN transistor so that the circuit may be triggered by a computer, other circuit, etc.
