The protective cover protects the front panel, particularly the
time setting section, against dust, dirt and water drip, as well
as prevents the set value from being altered due to accidental
contact with the time setting knob.
Note: The Y92A-48B Protective Cover is made of a hard plastic and
therefore, must be removed to change the timer set value. However,
since the Y92A-48D Protective Cover is made of PVC, the set value
can be altered by pressing on the surface of the cover.
It may be, however, difficult to make setting changes of the Timer
with the Y92A-48B Protective Cover attached, which must be taken
into consideration before using the Y92A-48B Protective Cover.
When attaching the Y92A-48A to the Timer to be panel-mounted,
use the Y92F-30 Mounting Adapter along with the Timer.
The Protective Cover cannot be, however, used for the H3CA-FA
Series.

Input Connections
Signal Inputs
Connect the start input contact between terminals C and F, the
reset input contact between terminals C and G, the gate input
contact between terminals C and E, and the check input contact
between terminals C and D.
For each signal input contact, use a gold-plated contacts with high
reliability. Be sure that these input signals satisfy the following
requirements: a resistance of 1 k (max.) and a residual voltage of 1
V (max.) when the contact is made.
Solid-state Signal Inputs
Connect the start input transistor between terminals C and F, the
reset input transistor between terminals C and G, the gate input
transistor between terminals C and E, and the check input
transistor between terminals C and D.
For signal input, use an open collector type transistor with
characteristics: VCEO = 20 V min., VCE(S) = 1 V max., IC = 50 mA min.
and ICBO = 0.5 µA max. In addition, be sure that the input signals
satisfy the following requirements: a resistance of 1 k (max.) and a
residual voltage of 1 V (max.) when the transistor is ON, and a
resistance of 200 k (min.) when the transistor is OFF.

From a solid-state circuit (proximity sensor, photoelectric sensor, or
the like) with rated power supply voltage ranging from 6 to 30 VDC,
input signals can also be applied by other than an open collector type
transistor as shown in the following diagram. The input signal from a
solid-state circuit is applied when output transistor Tr turns ON. In
terms of signal voltage, the signal is input when it goes from a high to
low level. Again, the residual voltage should be 1 V (max.) when the
transistor is ON. As the current output from the timer to Tr is
approximately 0.1 mA, this connection is possible provided the
residual voltage is kept to a maximum of 1 V.
Note: Except for the power supply circuitry, avoid the laying of input
signal wires in parallel or in the same conduit with high-tension
or power lines. It is recommended to use shielded wires or
wiring with independent metal conduits for the shortest
possible distance.

Safety Precautions
How to Change Operation Mode
Operate the pushbuttons of the thumbwheel switch, located at the
leftmost position on the front panel to set the operation mode. Eight
operation modes (A, B, C, D, E, F, G, and H) are selectable and the
selected operation mode is displayed in the operation mode display
window.
How to Change Time Unit and Rated
Time
Operate the pushbuttons of the rightmost thumbwheel switch to
select the desired time unit. Seven time units (0.1 s, s, 0.1 m, m,
0.1 h, h, or 10 h) are selectable and the selected time unit is
displayed in the time unit display window. The desired rated time is
specified by operating the three thumbwheel switches in the middle
of the front panel. The range of rated time is 001 to 999 for each unit.
Time Unit and Rated Time
!CAUTION
1. Do not change the time unit, rated time, or operation mode while
the timer is in operation. Otherwise, the timer may malfunction or
be damaged. Be sure to turn off the power supply to the timer
before changing the timer unit, rated time or operation mode.
2. Note that output will be generated in C, D, E, G, or H mode even if
the rated time is set to 000. No output will be generated in A, B, or
F mode.
Connecting the Operating Power
Supply
The H3CA-8@ contains a capacitor-drop power circuit. Use a
sinusoidal power supply with a commercial frequency. Do not use
power supplies with a high frequency component (such as inverter
power supplies) for Timers with 100 to 240-VAC specifications. Using
these power supplies can damage internal circuits.
The power supply connections to the H3CA-A and H3CA-FA can be
made without regard to polarity for both AC and DC power supplies;
just connect to the specified terminals (2 and 10, or A1 and A2).
When connecting a DC power supply to the H3CA-8 or H3CA-8H,
however, the polarity must be connected as indicated.
Although there is a wide range of power connectable to the H3CA-A
and H3CA-FA, be sure that there is no inductive voltage or residual
voltage applied to the timer power supply terminals (2 and 10, or A1
and A2) when the power switch is turned OFF. (Inductive voltage can
be generated in the power supply line if it is placed in parallel with
high-voltage or power lines.)
A DC power supply can be connected if its ripple factor is 20% or
less and the mean voltage is within the rated operating voltage range
of the Timer.
Connect the power supply voltage through a relay or switch in such a
way that the voltage reaches a fixed value at once or the Timer may
not be reset or a timer error could result.
H3CA-8 and H3CA-8H Timers with AC specifications are equivalent
to capacitor loads. When switching the Timer power supply with an
SSR, use an SSR with a withstand voltage of twice the power supply
voltage.
Since the H3CA-8 and H3CA-8H Timers of AC specifications
externally discharges a part of internal energy when the power is
turned OFF, it may malfunction if an extremely sensitive relay is used
with the following sequence circuit.
If such a malfunction occurs, change the circuit configuration as
shown below on the right side.

Input/Output
The operation of the output contacts varies with the operation
specifications. Before making connections, check the operation
specifications and operating conditions using the application
examples provided.
The H3CA-A and H3CA-FA do not use transformers. Simultaneous
inputting power from two or more power supplies to separate timers
or counters from a single input contact or transistor is not possible.
For the power supply of an input device, use an isolating transformer,
of which the primary and secondary windings are mutually isolated
and the secondary winding is not grounded.
A transformer is not used in the power supplies for the H3CA-A and
H3CA-FA. You can therefore receive an electrical shock by touching
the input terminals when the power supply voltage is being applied.
Take adequate precautions to protect against electrical shock.
Inputs to input signal terminals are made by shorting the individual
input terminals to the common terminal (terminal 3 for the H3CA-A or
terminal (X) for the H3CA-FA). Internal circuits may be damaged if
connections are made to any other terminals or if voltages are
applied.
If contacts are used to short the terminals, they will be switching a
low voltage (approximately 5 VDC) and current (approximately
100 µA). You must therefore use high-reliability contacts with a
contact resistance of 1 k or less when shorted and residual voltage
of 1 V maximum when shorted.
The reset input will take priority if both the set and reset inputs are
turned ON simultaneously.
Others
Holding relays are used for outputs on the H3CA-A Series. Dropping
the Unit or otherwise subjecting it to shock can cause the relay to
reverse or to move to the center position.
How to Mount the Timer on Mounting
Track
When mounting a H3CA-FA Timer on a socket mounting track,
observe the following procedures:
Mounting
First hook portion A of the timer to an edge of the track and then
depress the timer in direction B.
Dismounting
Pull out portion C with a round-blade screwdriver and remove the
timer from the mounting track.

portation bill signed by the carrier noting that the carrier received the Products
from Omron in the condition claimed.
13. Warranties. (a) Exclusive Warranty. Omron’s exclusive warranty is that the
Products will be free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of
twelve months from the date of sale by Omron (or such other period expressed
in writing by Omron). Omron disclaims all other warranties, express or implied.
(b) Limitations. OMRON MAKES NO WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION,
EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, ABOUT NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABIL-
ITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OF THE PRODUCTS.
BUYER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT ALONE HAS DETERMINED THAT THE

INTENDED USE. Omron further disclaims all warranties and responsibility of
any type for claims or expenses based on infringement by the Products or oth-
erwise of any intellectual property right. (c) Buyer Remedy. Omron’s sole obli-
gation hereunder shall be, at Omron’s election, to (i) replace (in the form
originally shipped with Buyer responsible for labor charges for removal or
replacement thereof) the non-complying Product, (ii) repair the non-complying
Product, or (iii) repay or credit Buyer an amount equal to the purchase price of
the non-complying Product; provided that in no event shall Omron be responsi-
ble for warranty, repair, indemnity or any other claims or expenses regarding
the Products unless Omron’s analysis confirms that the Products were prop-
erly handled, stored, installed and maintained and not subject to contamina-
tion, abuse, misuse or inappropriate modification. Return of any Products by
Buyer must be approved in writing by Omron before shipment. Omron Compa-
nies shall not be liable for the suitability or unsuitability or the results from the
use of Products in combination with any electrical or electronic components,

ments. Any advice, recommendations or information given orally or in writing,
are not to be construed as an amendment or addition to the above warranty.

14. Limitation on Liability; Etc. OMRON COMPANIES SHALL NOT BE LIABLE
FOR SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES,
LOSS OF PROFITS OR PRODUCTION OR COMMERCIAL LOSS IN ANY
WAY CONNECTED WITH THE PRODUCTS, WHETHER SUCH CLAIM IS
BASED IN CONTRACT, WARRANTY, NEGLIGENCE OR STRICT LIABILITY.
Further, in no event shall liability of Omron Companies exceed the individual
price of the Product on which liability is asserted.
15. Indemnities. Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless Omron Companies and
their employees from and against all liabilities, losses, claims, costs and
expenses (including attorney's fees and expenses) related to any claim, inves-
tigation, litigation or proceeding (whether or not Omron is a party) which arises
or is alleged to arise from Buyer's acts or omissions under these Terms or in
any way with respect to the Products. Without limiting the foregoing, Buyer (at
its own expense) shall indemnify and hold harmless Omron and defend or set-
tle any action brought against such Companies to the extent based on a claim
that any Product made to Buyer specifications infringed intellectual property
rights of another party.
16. Property; Confidentiality. Any intellectual property in the Products is the exclu-
sive property of Omron Companies and Buyer shall not attempt to duplicate it
in any way without the written permission of Omron. Notwithstanding any
charges to Buyer for engineering or tooling, all engineering and tooling shall
remain the exclusive property of Omron. All information and materials supplied
by Omron to Buyer relating to the Products are confidential and proprietary,
and Buyer shall limit distribution thereof to its trusted employees and strictly
prevent disclosure to any third party.
17. Export Controls. Buyer shall comply with all applicable laws, regulations and
licenses regarding (i) export of products or information; (iii) sale of products to
“forbidden” or other proscribed persons; and (ii) disclosure to non-citizens of
regulated technology or information.
18. Miscellaneous. (a) Waiver. No failure or delay by Omron in exercising any right
and no course of dealing between Buyer and Omron shall operate as a waiver
of rights by Omron. (b) Assignment. Buyer may not assign its rights hereunder
without Omron's written consent. (c) Law. These Terms are governed by the
law of the jurisdiction of the home office of the Omron company from which
Buyer is purchasing the Products (without regard to conflict of law princi-
ples). (d) Amendment. These Terms constitute the entire agreement between
Buyer and Omron relating to the Products, and no provision may be changed
or waived unless in writing signed by the parties. (e) Severability
. If any provi-
sion hereof is rendered ineffective or invalid, such provision shall not invalidate
any other provision. (f) Setoff. Buyer shall have no right to set off any amounts
against the amount owing in respect of this invoice. (g) Definitions. As used
herein, “includingmeans “including without limitation”; and “Omron Compa-
nies” (or similar words) mean Omron Corporation and any direct or indirect
subsidiary or affiliate thereof.
Certain Precautions on Specifications and Use
1. Suitability of Use. Omron Companies shall not be responsible for conformity
with any standards, codes or regulations which apply to the combination of the
Product in the Buyers application or use of the Product. At Buyer’s request,
Omron will provide applicable third party certification documents identifying
ratings and limitations of use which apply to the Product. This information by
itself is not sufficient for a complete determination of the suitability of the Prod-
uct in combination with the end product, machine, system, or other application
or use. Buyer shall be solely responsible for determining appropriateness of
the particular Product with respect to Buyer’s application, product or system.
Buyer shall take application responsibility in all cases but the following is a
non-exhaustive list of applications for which particular attention must be given:
(i) Outdoor use, uses involving potential chemical contamination or electrical
interference, or conditions or uses not described in this document.
(ii) Use in consumer products or any use in significant quantities.
(iii) Energy control systems, combustion systems, railroad systems, aviation
systems, medical equipment, amusement machines, vehicles, safety equip-
ment, and installations subject to separate industry or government regulations.
(iv) Systems, machines and equipment that could present a risk to life or prop-
erty. Please know and observe all prohibitions of use applicable to this Prod-
uct.
NEVER USE THE PRODUCT FOR AN APPLICATION INVOLVING SERIOUS
RISK TO LIFE OR PROPERTY OR IN LARGE QUANTITIES WITHOUT
ENSURING THAT THE SYSTEM AS A WHOLE HAS BEEN DESIGNED TO
ADDRESS THE RISKS, AND THAT THE OMRON’S PRODUCT IS PROP-
ERLY RATED AND INSTALLED FOR THE INTENDED USE WITHIN THE
OVERALL EQUIPMENT OR SYSTEM.
2. Programmable Products. Omron Companies shall not be responsible for the
user’s programming of a programmable Product, or any consequence thereof.
3. Performance Data. Data presented in Omron Company websites, catalogs
and other materials is provided as a guide for the user in determining suitabil-
ity and does not constitute a warranty. It may represent the result of Omron’s
test conditions, and the user must correlate it to actual application require-
ments. Actual performance is subject to the Omron’s Warranty and Limitations
of Liability.
4. Change in Specifications. Product specifications and accessories may be
changed at any time based on improvements and other reasons. It is our prac-
tice to change part numbers when published ratings or features are changed,
or when significant construction changes are made. However, some specifica-
tions of the Product may be changed without any notice. When in doubt, spe-
cial part numbers may be assigned to fix or establish key specifications for
your application. Please consult with your Omron’s representative at any time
to confirm actual specifications of purchased Product.
5. Errors and Omissions. Information presented by Omron Companies has been
checked and is believed to be accurate; however, no responsibility is assumed
for clerical, typographical or proofreading errors or omissions.
