Introduction to Timers and Timer Contacts

A discussion of timers in ladder diagrams. With ON Delay and OFF delay discussed with an example with a holding circuit.
Auto shut down included in the last circuit in this video.

great explaination with symbol elobrating . thank you sir.

[@jakeoly5109]

Great explanation Lars! Thanks

[@EliangelB]

Thanks for this video, really reaaaally helpful

[@larsexplains3086]

🤣 Thanks for the thanks! Bring on more ideas for other videos. I'm always looking to know what people what to learn.

[@larsexplains3086]

Right back at you BROTHER!

[@sohailjanjua123]

Hi, I like your lecture. Thanks

[@BKMakes]

Arriba, arriba! Andale, andale! ...sorry Lars, couldn’t resist😋

[@larsexplains3086]

Thanks brother BK! LOVE you builds Sir. Hope all is well on that end.

[@user-wf5ym6pr9b]

Thanks you so much this helped me a lot

[@larsexplains3086]

That's fantastic news Portia! I'm super happy to help!

Is there any timer that on/off every month or biweekly for like few hours?

[@ramuganesan]

after supply is removed from the coil of the off delay timer, will it start to count the timing?

Too many components for such a simple operation can't it be minimized. /

Control systems often have many components than what I have used in this control circuit. If you go into further study of Ladder Logic, you will find the circuits become more complicated with more inputs and outputs as well as the more complicated the control parameters.
Timers only scratch the surface of the numerous control devises in Ladder Logic, including Relays Holding Circuits, Memory Latches, reverse logic, multiple contracts on single devices, termination contacts, both Normally Open and Normally closed contacts and many more control programming and components.
I do not think this circuit can be simplified and function the same way, but I am very open to looking at different options.
If you would like to explore more Ladder Logic examples, I think this one example will become less “Too many” to you and you will start to see the power of Ladder Logic.
My channel has several Ladder Logic examples that I believe will help you understand it from the most basic circuit to more complicated control circuit. If you wish, you can look at the Playlist “Intro To Controls ATMN 110 (Lab)”
