Dayton 24EN96 Off-Delay Relay Octal 240V AC 10A 11-Pin
An off-delay time relay with an 11-pin octal base, adjustable from three seconds to five minutes, rated for ten amps at 240 volts AC
- Off-delay timing up to 5 minutes
- 10 A switching at 240 V AC or 30 V DC
- 11-pin octal plug-in for quick socket mounting
- Adjustable from 3 seconds via potentiometer
- IP20 enclosed housing protects internal contacts
Application scope
This Dayton 24EN96 is an octal-base off-delay relay designed for 240V AC control circuits. It suits engineers and maintenance technicians who need a single adjustable timing function in a plug-in module. The potentiometer adjustment sets the delay between 3 sec and 5 min, and the DPDT contacts switch up to 10 A at 240V AC or 30V DC.
Fit and alternatives
Installers who require an octal 11-pin socket and an IP20 enclosed housing will find this unit matches the panel cut-out. Buyers who need multiple delay functions, a different coil voltage, or a DIN-rail mount without a socket should look at other relay types.
Deciding specification
The off-delay function is the critical parameter: the output stays energised during the timed interval after the control signal is removed. If the application demands on-delay, interval, or repeat-cycle timing instead, this relay will not perform the required sequence.

Questions about this item
Should I pick the 3-second minimum or the 5-minute maximum delay version?
This relay covers the full range from 3 seconds up to 5 minutes with a single potentiometer, so one unit handles both the shortest and longest off-delay settings.
What does the 10 A contact rating mean when the relay is installed in a 240 V AC circuit?
The DPDT contacts are rated for 10 A at 240 V AC, so the relay can switch loads up to that current without exceeding its specified limits.
How does the octal 11-pin plug-in base limit the relay's use in a control panel?
The 11-pin octal socket provides a standard plug-in connection for panel mounting, and the IP20 enclosure means it is suited for indoor cabinet use only.
