Multispan FRT-22U Forward Reverse Timer | Dual Relay | Pause Function | DIN Rail Mount
Multispan FRT-22U Forward–Reverse Timer – Universal Supply, 0.1s–10hr
A DIN-rail programmable forward–reverse timer with universal AC/DC power input, independent forward/reverse time settings, and pause delay for safe directional control of motors and automation systems.
The Multispan FRT-22U is a programmable forward–reverse timer built for applications requiring timed directional switching of motors, conveyors, hoists, and actuators. With an ultra-wide supply range (12–240V AC/DC), independent settings for forward, reverse, and pause durations, and dual relay outputs, it ensures safe, reliable, and repeatable automation sequences in industrial control panels.

FAQ
Q1. Can forward and reverse times be set independently?
Yes, both durations are controlled by separate knobs.
Q2. What is the function of pause time?
Pause time introduces a delay between reversing cycles to protect motors and gear mechanisms.
Q3. Does it support both AC and DC supplies?
Yes, the unit accepts 12–240V DC and 20–240V AC, making it panel-friendly.
Q4. How many relays are included?
Two independent relays—one for forward, one for reverse—each with 1 changeover contact.
Q5. Is the device suitable for DIN-rail panels?
Yes, it is designed for 35 mm DIN rail mounting.
Q6. Can it be used in continuous-duty industrial applications?
Yes, it is designed and rated for continuous industrial use.
