Motor starting delay conversion devices are crucial for starting high-power motors. Currently, commonly used delay conversion devices fall into two main categories: electronic and electric time relays. Electronic time relays use discrete or integrated components for timing, with the relay performing the switching action. Electric time relays use a synchronous motor and combined gears for timing, with mechanical contacts performing the switching action. Both types of time relays rely on mechanical contacts for their switching action. Therefore, common faults include contact oxidation, poor contact, and burnt contacts, especially in environments with high dust levels, high concentrations of harmful gases (SO₂), and excessive vibration. Furthermore, since most commercially available time relays have multi-level adjustable delay times, the starting time is often prolonged due to insecure delay time locking, leading to overheating or even burnout of the autotransformer. To completely solve these problems, the author designed and fabricated a fully electronic delay circuit consisting of a TL431 precision reference voltage regulator and an optocoupler. Replacing the original time relays in two 55kW autotransformer starter boxes with this circuit, practical application has proven that this all-electronic delay circuit is simple, practical, and reliable, with no production disruptions due to delay circuit failures.
