Question
What is a substitute product for STP Motor Timers?
Answer
1.It depends on STP model. Refer to the following table.
Operating method | Time-limit operation | |||||
Reset method | Self-reset | Electric reset | ||||
Internal connection | Parallel motor and clutch connection | Separate motor and clutch connection | ||||
Time-limit contact | SPDT | SPDT | ||||
Instantaneous contact | SPST-NO' | SPST-NO | SPDT | SPST-NO' | --- | |
Without moving pointer | Surface mounting | STP-N | STP-NH | STP-ND | STP-N2 | STP-NR |
Flush mounting | STP-Y | STP-YH | STP-YD | --- | STP-YR | |
Recommended substitute product or models with substitute functions | (1) H3CR-A8E | (3) H2C-F | (4) H2C-8R | |||
With moving pointer | Surface mounting | STP-NM | STP-NMH | STP-NMD | STP-NM2 | STP-NMR |
Flush mounting | STP-YM | STP-YMH | STP-YMD | --- | STP-YMR | |
Recommended substitute product or models with substitute functions | (2) H2C-8 | (3) H2C-F | (4) H2C-8R |
Note:For details of the recommended substitute products or models with substitute functions, refer to the following information.
2.The substitute product in column (1) is H3CR-A8E Solid-state Timers because digital Timers have higher integrated performance than motor Timers when there are no moving pointers.
It is recommended that the socket is changed to P2CF-08 Sockets for a surface mounting timer. If you continue to use 8PFA Sockets, it must be used with Y92F-42 Adaptors, and PL08 Sockets with Y92H-7 Hold-down Clips.
When using a flush mounting model, Y92F-73 Flush Mounting Adaptors are required because H3CR is smaller than STP.
For Timers with SPST-NO instantaneous contacts, the power supply terminal 2 and instantaneous contact terminal 1 must be externally shorted for H3CR-A8E because they are internally shorted in STP.
Otherwise, no additional wiring or wiring changes are required.
3.The substitute product in column (2) is H2C-8 Motor Timers with moving pointer because only Motor Timers can replicate the moving pointer function.
It is recommended that the sockets are changed to P2CF-08 for surface mounting Timers. If you continue to use 8PFA Sockets, they must be used with Y92F-42 Adaptors, and PL08 Sockets with Y92H-1 Hold-down Clips.
When using a flush mounting model, Y92F-70 Flush Mounting Adaptors are required because H2C is smaller than STP.
For Timers with SPST-NO’ instantaneous contacts, the power supply terminal 2 and instantaneous contact terminal 1 must be externally shorted for H2C-8 because they are internally shorted in STP.
Otherwise, no additional wiring or wiring changes are required.
4.The substitute product in column (3) is H2C-F Motor Timers with top screw terminals because Timers with socket wiring do not have a function for separate motor and clutch connection.
STP socket wiring and H2C-F top wiring are irrelevant and so a large change in wiring is required.
The mounting method also must change from STP sockets to DIN track or screw mounting.
5.The substitute product in column (4) is the electrically reset H2C-8R Motor Timers.
It is recommended that the socket is changed to P2CF-08 for a surface mounting timer. If you continue to use 8PFA Sockets, it must be used with sY92F-42 Adaptors, and sPL08 Sockets with Y92H-1 Hold-down Clips.
When using a flush mounting model, Y92F-70 Flush Mounting Adaptors are required because H2C is smaller than STP.
6.General Comparison of STP and H3CR-A/H2C
Compared item | STP | H3CR-A | H2C |
Supply voltage | 100 VAC 50/60 Hz/110 VAC 60 Hz 200 VAC 50/60 Hz/220 VAC 60 Hz | 100 to 240 VAC, 50/60 Hz/100 to 125 VDC 24 to 48 VAC 50/60 Hz/12 to 48 VDC | 100 VAC 50/60 Hz/110 VAC 60 Hz 200 VAC 50/60 Hz/220 VAC 60 Hz |
Time range | 13 types: 1 scale 1 range 5 s to 24 h | 1 type: 4 scales 4 ranges one multitimer | 3 settings (choose from A, B, C): 1 scale, 5 ranges, 1 multitimer A: 30 s, 3 min, 30 min, 3 h, 30 h B: 6 s, 60 s, 6 min, 60 min, 6 h C: 12 s, 120 s, 12 min, 120 min, 12 h |
