Why Choose the Finder 83.62.0.240.0000T Power Off-Delay Timer Relay?
The Finder 83.62.0.240.0000T is a compact DIN rail mounted power off-delay timer relay designed for industrial automation, electrical control panels and railway-related control applications. Belonging to the Finder 83 Series, this timer provides a true off-delay function that maintains its output contacts in the operated state for a selected period after the supply is removed.
Featuring a wide 24–240 V AC/DC supply range, two changeover contacts (DPDT) and an 8 A rated contact current, the Finder 83.62.0.240.0000T offers flexible integration into industrial timing and control circuits. Four selectable timing ranges cover delays from 0.05 to 180 s, allowing the user to configure the required switch-off delay for compatible equipment.
The T-version is intended for demanding applications where resistance to vibration, shock and environmental conditions is important. Its 22.5 mm wide modular housing, screw terminal connections and standard 35 mm DIN rail mounting make it suitable for compact electrical enclosures and industrial control installations.

True Power Off-Delay Timing for Industrial Control Systems
The Finder 83.62.0.240.0000T operates using the BI true power off-delay function. When the appropriate supply voltage is applied, the relay outputs energise. After the supply is disconnected, the relay maintains the output state for the selected timing interval before returning the contacts to their rest position. This makes the device suitable for applications where an electrical output must remain active briefly after the control supply is switched off.
Unlike an ordinary off-delay timer that requires a continuously available auxiliary supply, a true power off-delay relay is designed to complete its delay following removal of the supply. The Finder 83.62T provides four selectable timing ranges, allowing delays from fractions of a second up to three minutes. Its two changeover outputs can be incorporated into suitable control circuits for delayed shutdown, sequencing and auxiliary equipment control. The connected load, required delay and minimum supply energisation period must be considered during system design.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machinery delayed shutdown circuits.
- Control panel power off-delay functions.
- Industrial automation timing and sequencing.
- Railway-related electrical control equipment.
- Delayed de-energisation of auxiliary control circuits.
- Machinery run-down and shutdown sequencing.
- Conveyor and material handling control systems.
- Industrial process control installations.
- OEM machinery and equipment control panels.
- Electrical distribution and switchgear auxiliary circuits.
- Building services control equipment.
- Timed relay output control following supply interruption.
