Tempo Plug-in Timer + Display with 1 Year Backup 230V

The Orbis TEMPO+ plug-in timer, reference OB162532, is a 230 V digital time switch designed to automate the switching on and off of small appliances, lighting, and other electrical equipment connected to a power socket. It plugs directly into a Schuko Type F outlet and offers up to 32 memory spaces, daily and weekly programming, ON/OFF operations, and configurable pulses from 1 to 59 seconds.

Its digital display makes programming easy and allows you to check the time, days of the week, and circuit status. It also includes a replaceable CR2032 lithium battery that provides up to 1 year of backup operation without power, automatic summer/winter time changeover, a holiday program, and temporary or permanent manual switching functions.

230 V plug-in digital timer

The TEMPO+ is designed to add time scheduling to an electrical appliance without the need to modify the distribution board or carry out a fixed installation. Simply connect the timer to a grounded Schuko socket and plug the device you want to control into it.

This setup makes it easy to use in homes, offices, shops, and other spaces where you want to automate a plug-connected appliance.

Daily and weekly programming

The Orbis TEMPO+ allows you to set different schedules depending on the days of the week. Operations can be assigned to one or more days, making it easy to create schedules adapted to the actual use of the connected equipment.

It has 32 programmable memory spaces in blocks. Each operation can be configured as ON, OFF, or a short-duration pulse.

Programmable pulses from 1 to 59 seconds

In addition to conventional switching on and off, the TEMPO+ can generate pulses with a configurable duration between 1 and 59 seconds.

This function expands its use in applications where a device only needs to be activated for a few seconds, such as buzzers, bells, or other compatible electrical devices.

Programming with second-level precision

Orbis specifies switching accuracy to the second and timekeeping accuracy of ±1 second per day at 23 °C. This gives the timer precise control over the configured schedules.

The clock can be displayed in either 24-hour or 12-hour format.

Up to 1 year of backup power

The TEMPO+ includes a replaceable CR2032 lithium battery that maintains the clock operation and the necessary information during power outages. Orbis specifies backup operation of up to 1 year without power.

The battery is housed in an accessible compartment in the timer and can be replaced following the manufacturer’s instructions.

Automatic summer/winter time changeover

The timer includes automatic management of the official winter and summer time changeover. In automatic mode, it changes on the last Sunday in March and the last Sunday in October.

It also has a programmable mode to manually set when these changes should occur, as well as an option to completely disable this function.

Special holiday program

The TEMPO+ includes a holiday mode capable of keeping the circuit disconnected for a period of up to 99 days. During this interval, the usual programmed operations are suspended.

Once the selected period ends, the device automatically returns to its normal program, avoiding the need to delete and re-enter schedules.

Temporary and permanent manual switching

The user can manually change the output status from the front controls. Temporary manual switching remains active until the next programmed operation is executed.

It also has permanent manual switching, which overrides the time programs to keep the circuit connected or disconnected until the user reactivates automatic operation.

Breaking capacity of 16(4) A

The Orbis TEMPO+ incorporates an AgSnO2 changeover contact with a breaking capacity of 16(4) A at 230 V AC. The maximum permissible power depends on the type of load connected.

• Incandescent lamps: up to 3000 W.
• Fluorescent lamps: up to 1200 VA.
• 12 V AC low-voltage halogen lamps: up to 2000 VA.
• 230 V AC halogen lamps: up to 3000 W.
• Energy-saving lamps: up to 600 VA.
• Downlights: up to 400 VA.
• LED lighting: up to 90 VA.

Schuko socket with child protection

The timer uses a Type F CEE 7/4 Schuko connection and features a grounded socket with child protection. This helps reduce the risk of accidental contact with live parts of the socket.

As a plug-in model, commissioning does not require internal wiring or DIN rail mounting.

Digital display and menu-based programming

The front panel includes a digital display showing the time, day of the week, ON/OFF status, programming mode, holiday period, and other operating parameters.

Configuration is carried out using four buttons and a menu system represented by icons. From these, you can adjust the date and time, view or modify stored programs, configure summer/winter time changeover, and activate holiday mode.

IP20 protection for indoor use

The TEMPO+ has an IP20 protection rating according to EN 60529 and Class II under correct use conditions. It is designed to be connected to electrical outlets located indoors and protected from water.

Its operating temperature range is between -10 and +45 °C, while the permitted transport and storage temperature is between -20 and +60 °C.

Compact plug-in format

The device has approximate dimensions of 62 mm wide, 110 mm high, and 95 mm total depth. Its net weight is approximately 165.8 g.

The front-mounted display and buttons allow programming directly once connected to the power outlet.
