When we press the push button ON the power will arrive to K1

K1 will change the position of the contactors and the power will arrive to the timer KT, after a
few seconds the timer will be ON and change its contactors so the k2 will be ON and change the
position of the contactors and R will go out and the motor still running.

2) Dynamic Braking DC shunt motor

When we press the push button ON the power will arrive to K1

K1 will change the position of its contactors and motor will run. After that when pressing OFF
button the K1 will open its contactors and KT, K2 will be ON and the R will be in the circuit
after seconds the timer contactor will be activated (open) and the motor stop.

3) Reversing of DC shunt motor

When ON1 button pushed the coil K1 change

its contactors position and the motor will run at
forward direction but when OFF button pushed
the motor will stop and pushing ON2 will
apply a power at coil K2 and change contactor
position and the motor run at backward
direction and so… .
