Abstract:
A permanent magnet latch attachment which magnetically latches an electromagnetically driven contact carrier of an electromagnetically operated switch device in an operating position against the force of a biasing spring which, when the latch attachment is rendered inoperative by energization of a release coil, returns the carrier to starting position. A connecting pin is rotatable about an axis eccentric to its own axis adjusts the flux gap of the latch. The latch attachment and release coil are mounted between the rear of the relay base and a mounting panel for the relay.
Abstract:
An electromagnetically operated solid state timing device having switching contacts and features which will permit the device to act as a direct replacement for an electromagnetically operated pneumatic timer. The device includes an electromagnet, a permanent magnet latch, a snap switch, solid state circuitry and accessible controls so the device may be easily programmed to actuate the snap switch an adjustable time delay after the electromagnet is energized or deenergized.
