Schneider Electric Square D XTE1 Timing Relay

Schneider Electric's Square D XTE1 Timing Relay is a NEMA‑style, plug‑in timing device in the Type X 8501 family designed for 120 V AC control circuits. The XTE1 timing function delivers a fixed 1‑minute on‑delay after energization, enabling sequencing, interlocks, and safe stepwise control in industrial panels and motor-control logic. Available variants include 2‑NO and 4‑NO configurations; for example, the 8501XO20XTE1V02 uses two normally open contacts and the 8501XO40XTE1V02 uses four normally open contacts, both with a 120 V, 60 Hz coil and a contact rating of 10 A resistive at 600 VAC. These relays share Square D’s standard NEMA mounting and are listed to UL, CSA, and CE standards, making them suitable for professional control panel installations. In operation, energizing the relay starts the timing cycle, and once the 60‑second delay completes, the corresponding output contacts change state to drive subsequent devices or interlocks, providing reliable timing in 120 V systems for applications such as sequencing, interlocking, safety timing, and controlled start/stop operations.
