ASC-500-5 ATC Diversified Electronics

This family of controls provides short cycle protection by locking out the compressor for a period of time after a voltage or thermostat interruption. Subsequent interruptions will not increase the delay period. Since the delay begins when the interruption occurs, the temperature control is not affected. Under normal operating conditions, the compressor off time is longer than five (5) minutes. In this case, the use of these timers will not lengthen this off cycle.These are easy to install two (2) terminal Short Cycle Timers that connect in series with the control voltage and control relay. The 24 VAC model employs a built-in bypass circuit for allowing continuous flow through the thermostats cooling anticipator while the timer output is off.
