Alternating Relays are used in applications requiring the optimization of
load usage by equalizing the run time of two loads. A version with DPDT
Cross-Wired output is also used for additional capacity in case of excess
load requirements. This alternating action is initiated by a control switch,
such as a oat switch, manual switch, timing relay, pressure switch, or other
isolated contact. Each time the initiating switch is opened, the output relay
contacts will change state, thus alternating the two loads.
A three-position selector switch is included. For SPDT versions, this allows
the unit to alternate the two loads as normal or select one or the other load
to be the only one energized when the control switch closes. For DPDT
cross-wired versions, the switch provides the option to alternate the two
loads as normal or select which load always comes on first when the LEAD
switch closes. In either case, a load that has fewer hours of operation than
the other load could be used more often to eventually balance the run
time of both loads. The low-profile selector switch prevents any accidental
changes in status.
These products utilize a ange-enclosure designed to be deadfront-mounted
on an inner door and used with back-mounted sockets. Everything needed
for setup, use and troubleshooting is on the top of the unit: LED status
indication and low-pro le selector switch. With this product, the selector
switch can be moved to any position without having to open the inner door.
