TMR5 series non-programmable
plug-in time delay relays
Wiring
Wire the socket per the wiring diagram on the side of the time delay relay. Note: For products that use
a control switch to initiate the unit, this control switch is a dry-type contact (applying voltage to the
pins could damage the unit). For products using a power trigger to initiate the unit, the power trigger is
the application of voltage with a value equal to the input voltage with the same polarity. For DC input
voltages, make sure the polarity matches the wiring diagram. If using solid-state input devices with any
product, problems with leakage current may occur.
Setting the time delay
All TMR5 Series non-programmable products, except those with fixed time delays come with a specific
single time delay range as indicated on the nameplate and by the catalog number. Adjust the time delay
within the specific time range by rotating the knob located on the top of the unit. Note: The tick marks
are for reference only.
Troubleshooting
If the unit fails to operate properly, check that all connections are correct per the wiring diagram on the
product. For DC input voltages, make sure the polarity matches the wiring diagram. Use the descriptions
of how each function operates below and on back of this sheet as a guide to determine if the unit is
operating properly. If problems continue, contact EATON TRC 1-800-809-2772 for assistance.
