First to market with NFC timing relays

Widely used in industrial processes, time delay relays (TDRs) provide simple, reliable and economical control and enable time-delayed switching to start a motor, control a load or affect a process. NFC technology, which is increasingly being integrated in consumer devices such as smartphones and tablets, is also becoming more important in the industrial IoT by providing new options for users and manufacturers, especially in the automation industry.

The new NFC timing relay is part of Schneider’s Zelio range and comes with 28 timing functions. This allows engineers to reduce the number of individual references for their designs or installations, thereby significantly improving efficiency. The time-saving copy and clone function of the mobile app allows fast and easy configuration of the timer relays. Further savings in time are delivered by the store-setting option that allows repeated use.
