Industry-Leading Asymmetrical Cycle Timer for Industrial Automation

The VIOX FCT18-AcR is a professional-grade asymmetrical flashing timer relay designed for applications requiring precise timing control with different ON and OFF intervals. Engineered for reliability in industrial environments, this DIN rail mounted relay provides exceptional timing accuracy and versatility across an extensive range of timing settings.

What is an Asymmetrical Flashing Timer Relay?

An asymmetrical flashing timer relay enables precise control of timing sequences where different ON and OFF durations are required. Unlike standard timer relays, the FCT18-AcR allows independent adjustment of both T1 (first period) and T2 (second period) timing intervals, providing exceptional flexibility for complex automation requirements. This asymmetrical cycling capability is ideal for applications that need variable duty cycles rather than simple on/off patterns.

Timing Function: AcR – Repeat Cycle Starting OFF

The FCT18-AcR operates in an asymmetrical repeat cycle mode, starting in the OFF state. When power (Un) is applied, the timing cycle begins with the relay in its OFF position. After the first time period (T1) elapses, the relay energizes for the second time period (T2). This cycle of T1 and T2 continues to repeat as long as power is maintained.

This timing function is particularly useful for applications requiring different ON and OFF periods, such as:

• Irrigation systems with different watering and drying cycles
• Industrial process control requiring asymmetrical timing
• Ventilation systems with different air exchange periods
• Traffic signal control with variable timing requirements
• Automated manufacturing equipment with asymmetrical duty cycles
• Commercial lighting systems requiring specific on/off patterns

Precision Time and Ratio Settings

The FCT18-AcR provides exceptional control over timing parameters with:

Time Range Options

The timer features 10 selectable time ranges, providing unprecedented flexibility:

• 0.1-1 second: For rapid cycling applications
