Automation

A timer relay is an electromechanical or solid-state relay that incorporates a timing function. It is used in electrical circuits where a delayed action is required, such as turning a device on or off after a preset time period. Timer relays are integral to controlling systems that require time-based operations, such as delays, on/off cycles, time intervals, or sequence control in automation and industrial applications.

A control relay is an electrical relay used to control the operation of devices in an electrical control system. These relays are primarily employed in control circuits to enable or disable electrical connections between components. Unlike power relays, which typically control high-power devices, control relays handle lower power signals and are often used in automation, process control, and safety systems to manage a wide variety of tasks, such as switching, monitoring, and signaling.
