WEG RTW Interface & Timing Relays

Compact relays and timers to bridge PLC I/O and field devices.

RTW interface relays deliver pluggable flexibility, wide coil voltages, and diagnostic indicators so you can isolate PLC outputs, expand I/O, and manage timing logic without bulky hardware. Pair them with monitoring relays to capture phase loss, voltage imbalance, and pump protection alarms.

Socket & Wiring Options

  • DIN rail sockets with screw or push-in terminals and integrated retaining clips.
  • Isolated common terminals for easy bridging and distribution wiring.
  • Snap-on marker strips, jumpers, and end plates for tidy panel layouts.
  • Optional diode or RC snubber modules for coil suppression.

Application Highlights

  • PLC output isolation, signal inversion, and interlocking for motor starters.
  • Time-delayed start/stop sequences for pumps, compressors, and conveyors.
  • Voltage and phase monitoring for critical loads and remote alarm points.
  • Compact control cabinets and OEM machinery with limited DIN rail space.

Why Integrators Choose RTW Relays

Wide Coil Coverage

Single relays support 12–240 VAC/DC coil ranges, reducing spare part inventories.

Service-Friendly

Mechanical indicators, LED status, and test buttons simplify troubleshooting without removing wiring.

Panel Density

Slim housings and jumper-ready sockets enable high-density I/O marshalling next to PLC racks.

Function Flexibility

Multi-function timing modules cover on-delay, off-delay, interval, and cyclic modes with one part number.
