I need a timer/relay that will activate a 12V solenoid switch for about 1 second , every five - ten minutes or so , will this work ?

I think it will, but you will need two of them cause this is a "one shot" timer.

As long as you have a way to reset it. It is a time delay on relay so when it gets power it does not turn on the load until the time selected delay is meet. You would need 2 timers and a relay with N.O. and N.C. contacts to make the circuit work.

Yes, just have your power coming in the Com terminal and out the CK (NO) terminal. This works because this circuit is closed (on) when timer is on and open (off) when countdown is done. See my review "INSTRUCTIONS for this Awesome & Inexpensive Delay Timer Relay" for more specifics.

From my understanding, the relay can be used as a battery isolater, so it is likely designed for continuous use. I have used the relay to switch an electric radiator fan in my truck and have had it continuously active for maybe 20-30 minutes without any issue.

Not quite sure what you mean,but this is what it is. The unit is really a timer relay,that can be triggered to count down via a +12volt or groung signal. It is also equiped with a normally closed contact in addition to the regular normally opened one. Given that,it can turn a light on when 12v is applied and then off at the end of the count down or off when 12v is applied and on at the end of the count. To reset the count I BELIEVE that all power on the control circuit side must be removed for more than 3 or 4 seconds.

Hi Robert I am also looking for the same thing you need. Please let me know if you found a timer you could recommend to me. Thank You Please email me at yourserviceguys@gmail.com

I am not an electrician but YES it for use in 12v systems as in a car. It is a timer relay that is in a low amp circuit to switch on and off the voltage to what ever needs the power. I am using mine to switch off and on a 12v low amp very small fan to keep air flowing over a PMD(Fuel supply Driver) in a diesel truck that is subject to over heating when engine is shut off. Check the amount of amperage that what ever circuit you are hooking it up to to see if it exceeds 5 amps. There are no instructions with it but I found out how to wire it by doing a google search. That took some time and head scratching.

If your referring to kill as the same as turning off then yes - time can be set to have it turn off/kill a 12v circuit and the turn it back on at a specified time

Don't really know. I would think that it would work fine on any timer. I just plug it in when needed and pull the plug out after.

Hi JR, This timer will not work in that application. It has a one minute minimum on time. There are timers that are designed to turn on and off quickly. Take a look at deer feeder timers (hunters use them). I believe that they turn on and off more rapidly. Good Luck, BFP

this device can't do what you're asking. you might want to look at a mechanical timer that gives you several options of turning on and off your appliances

I don't think it's what you are looking for. It needs the input voltage to run the timer. If you hold the switch long enough to get past the user set time delay, as soon as you release the momentary switch the output relay will go back to the normally closed position. If you used a normally closed momentary switch you could connect to the normally closed side of the output relay, and provide power for a set amount of time, but there wouldn't be power before you pressed the button.

The clock will work with out 12 volt power but relay will not the 12 volt dc to timer is not polarity sensitive I have mine hooked up as positive on left side and negative on right side if looking at face of timer hope this answers your question.

I used mine as a delayed start for a fan on an offroad vehicle. I believe this also works in a way that you can time how long you want power on then it will shut off. It will adjust from 1 second to hours..... No manual so you will have to do some figuring out yourself.

I had the same problem with my switch trying to use it for a 12 volt outdoor light. Power going in, light fixture works when connected directly to the battery, but timer does not work. I am past the 30 days, so.....

It's possible that you could connect all the zone control outputs and your pump relay together. This would create an "OR" circuit (either zone1 OR zone2 Or zone3, etc, coming on would also activate your pump). However, I don't know if the Timer circuit would be damaged. The safe way requires a simple electronic OR circuit that samples each zone output (it's 24 or 28 VAC) and inputs to a relay or solid state switch that controls the same voltage applied to the pump relay. Of course you would have to know if the relay handles that voltage and if the current draw is comparable to that which the zone solenoids pull. From the nature of your question I expect that you may have no idea how to do this.

No this won't work, I think you can purchase from a auto parts store a delay module. This unit needs a trigger to operate you would still have to have some type of timer.

I do not believe this will work for your application. I don't think relays will respond correctly to only 6 volts
