Ok, wow. I did it and I love it. I will draw the wiring up tomorrow. How cool is this. I did have to use a relay to convert the negative signal to positive. But no contactor needed. To listen to the extraction start up and blast gates open with the pneumatic mufflers hissing with the job and then run for two minutes before shut down once the job is complete. Wow.
Here it is drawn in LightBurn. I have a lot more to mine (controlling blast gates as well as a master line switch), but this is the relevant schematic for you (including a manual override switch allowing for independent operation of the fume extractor and bypassing the necessity for the controller signalling).
SO I have the setup working somehow but not the way I want to.
the manual override works.
the relay sending a signal to Y1/S/25 works as well.
But… when I put my smart relay on function E (Delay on Break) this happens:
It turns the power on after a break for the set time.
And looking at the picture that is also as designed.
I am afraid that there is none of the 13 functions that does what I ask of it.
I want it to be on all the time when operating plus and as soon as I turn it off… delay the relay break for the set time.
I have a similar set up when power comes on from the controller it pulls the time delay relay in.
Now the time delay relay is waiting for the power to be removed from the controller so it can count down and shut down the two 6" blowers. This shut down delay is set by you. If interested I will get some pictures of the set up and parts. It looks like Stroonzo’s set up is the same you must have an extra relay to control the signal as long as the extra spst relay is pulled in the time delay relay will not count down as soon as the signal is lost the timer starts is count down. Plus you have some extra contacts for some operational lights on your control panel everyone needs more lights.
Something I thought about today, you should probably put a flyback / snubber diode on the relay coil (maybe like a 1N4007) to suppress the inductance voltage from slapping your controller around.
