READ THIS FIRST:
Check the pack and make sure you have all of the
parts listed on the front of this booklet. If not,
contact the outlet where you bought this product.
As the buyer, installer and/or user of this product it
is your own responsibility to ensure that this tting
is t for the purpose for which you have intended
it. Eterna Lighting cannot accept any liability for
loss, damage or premature failure resulting from
inappropriate use.
This product is designed and constructed according
to the principles of the appropriate British Standard
and is intended for normal domestic service.
This tting must be installed in accordance with the
Building Regulations.
Switch o the mains before commencing installation
and remove the appropriate circuit fuse.
Do not overload the switch, check that the total
wattage of the switched load does not exceed the
maximum listed opposite.
Disconnect the switch from the electrical supply
before ash or high voltage testing.
Suitable for indoor use only.
This product is only suitable for use in living areas
(not for areas constantly subject to moisture).
Before making xing hole(s), check that there are no
obstructions hidden beneath the mounting surface
such as pipes or cables.
Do not attach to surfaces which are damp, freshly
painted or otherwise electrically conductive (e.g.
metallic surfaces).
If the location of your new switch requires the
provision of a new electrical supply, the supply
must conform with the requirements of the Building
Regulations.
This switch is double insulated, do not connect any
part to earth.
You are advised at every stage of your installation to
double-check any electrical connections you have
made. After you have completed your installation
there are electrical tests that should be carried out:
these tests are specied in the Wiring Regulations
(BS7671) referred to in the Building Regulations.
INSTALLATION:
01) Your new time lag switch can be installed as a
direct replacement for a normal one way wall
switch.
02) The switch body will t onto a standard wall box
using the screws supplied.
03) Lever the mounting screws out from the rear of
the case using a small screwdriver
04) Connect the switch to the live supply wire at the
“LIVE IN” terminal.
05) Connect the live wire from your light tting or
other appliance to the “LIVE OUT” terminal.
06) Do not connect any neutral wires.
07) Do not connect any earth wires.
08) Do not connect any ring live wires.
09) Adjust the time delay control to minimum (12sec)
for testing.
10) Fit the switch to the wall box or pattress box and
secure using the screws supplied.
11) Restore the power and test the switch.
12) If any adjustments to the time delay are required,
switch o the electricity at the mains before
removing the switch to access the control.
OPERATION:
01) NORMAL OFF STATE: the red light glows inside
the switch but the power supply to the light
tting or appliance is interrupted.
02) ON STATE: the red light inside the switch is
o and power is supplied to the light tting or
appliance.
Once the button has been pressed, the power
will be supplied to the appliance for the time
period set on the internal control (12 seconds
to 12 minutes approximately). The power will
be interrupted at the end of the time cycle
regardless of any additional presses of the
button. Once the time cycle has elapsed and the
power interrupted, the button can be pressed
again and the cycle begun again.
03) NOTE: The time lag switch will switch loads of
any type up to a maximum of 6A. In a normal
incandescent lighting or other resistive load, this
is approximately 1400 Watts. You will need to
refer to manufacturers literature to determine the
start-up current of inductive loads to determine
the suitability of this switch to your application. If
using this switch to control uorescent lighting,
the light ttings must have a high power factor, if
the power factor is low, a power factor correction
capacitor will need to be added.
04) This switch uses a transistor and not a relay, this
enables faster switching and prevents contact
burnout to yield a longer and more reliable
operating life.
CAPABILITY:
Minimum load is 5 Watts.
This switch is suitable for switching the following
loads:
Incandescent lighting
Fluorescent lighting
Low Voltage lighting with wire-wound transformer
Low Voltage lighting with electronic transformer
LIVE OUT
Shorter - 12 secondsLonger - 12 minutes
LIVE IN
