Frequently Asked Questions

Timer Topic: Apply Power Continuously

 

FAQ No. FAQ03053

 

Question

Is it possible for a Timer to continuously apply power?


Answer

 

Yes, but do not leave the Timer in a time-expired condition for long periods of time (e.g., a month or longer) under high-temperature conditions.

Doing so may reduce the life of the Timer due to deterioration of internal parts, such as electrolytic capacitors.

If the Timer is to be left in a timed-out status for extended periods of tie, use together with Relays in the following type of circuit.
