  • Time delay valve is a combination valve used to set the operation time as per the requirement.
  • The time delay can be increased or decreased by adjusting the flow through the non-return flow control valve. - The change invariably increases or decreases the time taken to fill and pilot actuates the direction control valve.
  • Time delay valve is a combination of a pneumatically actuated 3/2direction control valve, an air reservoir and a throttle relief valve. The time delay function is obtained by controlling the air flow rate to or from the reservoir by using the throttle valve.
  • Adjustment of throttle valve permits fine control of time delay between minimum and maximum times. In pneumatic time delay valves, typical time delays in the range 5-30 seconds are possible.The time delay can be extended with the addition of external reservoir.Time delay valve, NC type.
  • The constructions of an on-delay timer (NC) type in the normal and actuated are shown in Figure It can be seen that 3/2 DCV operates in the on delay mode permanently. But, in some designs, the valve can be operated in the off-delay mode by connecting the check valve in reverse direction.
