ABSTRACT:
The invention is an improved timer circuit for operating a heating or air conditioning unit which utilizes a single time delay generating circuit for delaying operation of both a compressor and a unit fan under certain operating conditions. A logic circuit for operating a fan relay is made responsive to the thermostat output and a time delay generating circuit output so that the fan relay is de-energized only in the case that the compressor has been turned off for at least the duration of a time delay generator timing period, and is in a state commensurate with a satisfactory building temperature. When the timer circuit is used in large-scale heating or air conditioning systems, the timing period of each timing circuit can be adjusted to a different duration so that a voltage lag problem on start up is avoided.
