The described circuit operates as a delay timer for a relay, utilizing the LM555 timer integrated circuit (IC2) to control the timing mechanism. The circuit is powered by a +12V supply, which energizes the relay (RL1) after a predetermined delay of 100 seconds.
The configuration of the LM555 timer is set in monostable mode, where it generates a single output pulse in response to a trigger input. The timing period is determined by the resistor-capacitor (RC) network formed by R1, R2, and C1-2. When the circuit is powered, the capacitor charges through R1 and R2, and once it reaches approximately 2/3 of the supply voltage, the output of the LM555 transitions to a high state, energizing the relay.
The circuit also includes a variable resistor (RV1) that allows adjustment of the timing range, providing flexibility in the delay period. The additional components, such as the diodes (D1, D2, D3, D4), serve to protect the circuit from back EMF generated by the relay coil when it is de-energized.
The push button switch (S1-2) is utilized to manually trigger the timer, while the two-position switch (S3) allows selection between different timing ranges, specifically between 6-60 seconds and 1-10 minutes for automatic turn-off functionality.
Resistors R3 to R9, along with Q1 (a BC214 transistor), are used for signal amplification and conditioning within the circuit, ensuring reliable operation of the timer and relay. The use of capacitors C3 and C4 aids in stabilizing the power supply and filtering noise, which is critical for the proper functioning of the LM555 timer and overall circuit performance.
This design provides a robust solution for applications requiring delayed relay activation, with adjustable timing options to suit various operational needs.A 100 second delayed turn ON relay RL1 switch, if plug power +12V in circuit.
