Why Choose the ABB CT-AHS.22S OFF-Delay Timer?
The ABB CT-AHS.22S is a single-function electronic time relay from the ABB CT-S timer range, designed to provide reliable OFF-delay timing for industrial automation and electrical control systems. It provides a delay-on-break function that keeps the relay output energised for a defined period after the control signal is removed.
The CT-AHS.22S provides 10 selectable time ranges from 0.05 s to 300 h and operates from a rated control supply of 24–48 V DC or 24–240 V AC. A volt-free floating control input provides flexible triggering for machinery, control panels and automated processes.
The timer features 2 c/o (SPDT) relay contacts rated at 250 V / 4 A. Its compact 22.5 mm wide housing uses screw connection technology with double-chamber cage terminals and is suitable for DIN rail installation in industrial control cabinets.

Reliable OFF-Delay Timing for Industrial Automation
The ABB CT-AHS.22S provides a dedicated OFF-delay function for applications where relay outputs need to remain active for a defined period after the control signal is removed. This makes it suitable for control circuits requiring predictable delay-on-break operation without the additional complexity of a multifunction timer.
With ten selectable time ranges covering 0.05 s to 300 h, the CT-AHS.22S can accommodate both short machine-control delays and extended process timing requirements. Two changeover relay contacts provide flexible interfacing with contactors, signalling circuits, machinery and other industrial control equipment.
Typical Applications
- Industrial automation and control panels.
- Motor and contactor control circuits.
- Machine sequencing and timed control.
- Conveyor and production machinery control.
- Delayed switch-off applications.
- Process automation and equipment sequencing.
- Industrial signalling and alarm circuits.
- Cooling and ventilation run-on control.
- Control systems requiring extended OFF-delay timing.
- Applications requiring AC or DC control supply operation.
