What it represents
Introduces a documented delay in a stopping or opening operation.
In a drafting package, connect this reference to the timer trigger, reset condition and control supply. The associated drawing should trace the delayed opening or stopping output; the number identifies the role and does not specify the terminal arrangement, ratings or operating settings.
How to read it
- Identify the timer trigger, reset condition and control supply.
- Trace the delayed opening or stopping output.
Information to show or reference
- Label the timer trigger, reset condition and control supply.
- Cross-reference the delayed opening or stopping output.
- Identify the device tag, manual revision and logic drawing that define this implementation.
A distinction that matters
Device 62 concerns delayed stopping or opening; device 2 concerns delayed starting or closing.
