Time switch Hager EGN100

The Hager EGN100 is a wired time switch engineered for controlling single-phase AC motors and similar loads at a supply of 230 V and 50–60 Hz. Its compact housing with a width of 17.8 mm and a depth of 62.5 mm lets it fit into standard distribution boards and control cabinets where space is limited. The device provides reliable timed switching for automation tasks and energy management, enabling scheduled operation of equipment without manual intervention.

Advantages

The time switch offers precise, repeatable control of electrical loads with a stable AC input voltage range of 230 V and common mains frequency compatibility (50–60 Hz). Its slim profile reduces panel space consumption and simplifies DIN-rail mounting. Wired connections ensure steady communication with the controlled motor or circuit, while solid-state and mechanical design choices provide long-term operational stability and predictable switching behaviour.

How to use

Install the unit on a DIN rail inside a suitably rated distribution board following local electrical regulations. Connect the supply (230 V AC) and the controlled motor circuit according to the wiring diagram provided with the device, ensuring correct phase and neutral termination. Configure the time switch settings as required for the application and verify operation with test cycles before regular use. Regular visual inspection and adherence to the manufacturer’s installation instructions will help maintain dependable operation.

Recommendations

Use the device within specified voltage and frequency limits and avoid exposure to excessive humidity, dust, or vibration. For motor loads, check inrush and starting current compatibility with the switch ratings and consider additional contactors if required. Follow applicable safety standards and have electrical connections performed or verified by a qualified electrician.
