Said switches were usually based on a pneumatic monoflop in a remote
wiring closet. The relay coil depresses an air-piston with a valve to
let the air rush out and an adjustable leak that determines the time delay
until the contacts open. It is retriggerable: the delay starts from the
moment you release the momentary light switch. All switches are wired
in parallel and are frequently illuminated with a neon light that draws
a small current through the relay.
