Why Choose the ABB CT-TGC.12 Time Relay?
The ABB CT-TGC.12 is a compact single-function electronic pulse generator time relay designed for reliable cyclic timing and switching in industrial control and automation systems. As part of the established ABB CT-C timer range, it provides a recycling unequal-times function for applications requiring repeatable timed pulses.
The CT-TGC.12 provides 2 x 7 selectable time ranges from 0.05 s to 100 h, allowing both the pulse duration and interval to be configured across a broad timing range. This makes the relay suitable for sequencing, cyclic control, signalling and automated switching applications.
With a rated control supply of 24–48 V DC or 24–240 V AC, one changeover relay output and a voltage-related control input, the CT-TGC.12 offers flexible integration into industrial control circuits. Its compact 17.5 mm wide housing is designed for space-efficient DIN rail installation.
