Product Information
Full details
This Schneider Electric Acti 9 analog time switch is designed for panel builders and electricians who need reliable, automated control of electrical loads based on a daily program. Its key benefit is simplifying repetitive switching tasks with a 24-hour cycle and up to 48 ON/OFF operations. A potential caveat is its analog nature, which requires manual programming for each daily schedule.

FAQs
What is the maximum number of ON and OFF operations per day?
The time switch allows for a maximum of 48 ON operations and 48 OFF operations within a 24-hour period.
What is the smallest time interval between switching operations?
The minimum time interval between two consecutive switching operations (either ON to OFF or OFF to ON) is 15 minutes.
Can I manually override the programmed schedule?
Yes, this time switch features a manual override function for temporary or permanent control adjustments.
What is the power supply requirement for this device?
The time switch operates on a supply voltage of 230V AC with a frequency of 50Hz.
How much space does this unit take up in an electrical panel?
It occupies three standard module units, equivalent to 54mm in width.
What is the accuracy of this analog time switch?
The accuracy is rated at +/- 1 second per day at 20°C.
What type of contact does this time switch use?
It features a changeover contact execution, providing flexibility in controlling circuits.
Troubleshooting
Device does not switch loads ON or OFF
Verify that the unit is receiving the correct supply voltage (230V). Check that the ON and OFF tappets are correctly positioned for the desired times. Ensure the manual override is not engaged.
Inaccurate switching times
Confirm the supply voltage is stable. The device has an accuracy of +/- 1 second per day, which is normal for analog timers. For highly precise timing, a digital timer might be required.
Tappets are difficult to set
Ensure you are rotating the programming disk correctly and using the intended method for setting tappets. Do not force tappets; they should slide into place.
