The PCTDS2 Pull Cord Time Delay Switch provide timed control for lighting, heating and ventilation loads in areas where standard electrical switches are not allowed. They are simple to install and do not require a mains Neutral connection and so can directly replace an existing pull cord switch (providing the minimum load limit is satisfied).

The time delay switches are very easy to use; pulling on the cord will turn on the connected load. The load will be automatically switched off after the pre-selected delay has elapsed, or after the user cancels the function by pulling and holding the cord momentarily. The time delay can be adjusted via an internal thumbwheel from 6 seconds to 60 minutes.  Other time delay periods are available upon request at time of purchase (3 seconds to 30 minutes, 12 seconds to 120 minutes).

The PCTDS2 is also available as a 3-wire variant:
PCTDS3: 3-wire version (Live, Neutral, Output), mains neutral required. No minimum load restrictions apply.
