The Intelligent Cycle Timer

£72.99

An all new Cycle Timer for home and grow room use. The unit features a photocell that, when activated, will only enable the unit to operate in daylight or when lights are on.
This enables the unit to automatically stop dosing when there is no light.
A plastic housing, with wall mounting lugs, provides superior resistance to humid atmospheres for years of dependable service.
The Cycle Timer is our most recent development in grow room controls and has solved the age old problem of accurate short cycle timing.
Perfect for plant zone environments, reptile habitats or any other application requiring automatic short cycle switching.
No programming is required. Easy to operate. Microprocessor time counter with pre-set frequency and duration.
The Cycle Timer has many uses including fogging or misting, spray stakes or drip system timing, air pumps, C02 equipment and intake or exhaust fan control.
The Cycle Timer has a range of pre-set 'On Times' and 'Cycle Times'. The 'On Times' vary from a minimum of 30 seconds to a maximum of 1 hour, with another 10 options in between and represent the amount of time the 'output' is actually on during the overall chosen Cycle Time.
The 'Cycle Times' vary from a minimum of 1 minute to a maximum of 6 hours, with another 10 options in between and represent the overall Cycle Time. For example; if the Cycle Time is set for 1 hour and the On Time is set for 10 minutes the unit will power the chosen device for 10 minutes and will turn off the device for 50 minutes, giving an overall Cycle Time of 1 hour.
The unit also features a Manual Override switch to enable the user to switch the device on continuously and supersede the set Cycle Time. This is useful in many applications, for example when wishing to run a pump for a longer period in order to saturate a chosen media.
In override mode the unit ignores the photocell facility.
The unit features a Light Sensor/Photocell that can be set to only dose during lights on or daylight conditions.
When this feature is switched on, the unit will monitor light conditions and when it identifies darkness for any period exceeding 10 seconds, the timing function and output will stop.
This feature is especially useful when using the unit to run dosing pumps or C02 devices, as it stops operating in hours of darkness without the grower having to think about it.
There is an override switch to enable the photocell action to be disabled, making the unit also useful for fan operation etc.
In case of incorrect setup by the grower, the unit features an Error Alert Light, that will flash if the On Time is equal to or greater than the Cycle Time.
The Cycle Timer features a 3m mains lead and 13 amp fused plug and operates on 230 volts AC with a 13 amp switching capacity.
The Cycle Timer must be plugged directly into a standard 13amp wall socket.
