0166746-006

Product Description:

The 0166746-006 timer, made by Danaher, sits in the Timers and Controllers collection and brings the solid look and feel needed for tough spots on the factory floor. This model goes with a base-mounted form, giving it a low profile while being easy to lock down on control panels or enclosures where things get crammed. A ratchet drive runs the numbers around, and the drive torque at 4 lb-in (45 N·cm) keeps rotation sure but never feels light. Turning the wheel, the quick rotary reset gets things back to zero without much fuss, so there’s no stuck counters here.

Size gets attention on this timer, with white on black figures printed bold — each digit rising 0.345 inches high and 0.25 wide so readings pop out even from across the shop floor. Six numbers sit on the dial (so 6 total figures), enough for counts that go long in batch work. The casing holds up using Zamak die-cast material, and that means durability instead of dents, especially where tools bang around. Vibration doesn’t loosen the shaft, either, and the shaft diameter is 0.3125 inches (7.9 mm) inplated steel, nothing flimsy about that part. Peaks of 500 counts-per-minute max let the machine reset and spin quick cycles without numbers drifting out of place.

Every moving part counts: the wheels and pinions made from acetal resin shrug off wear, and with 1.25 lb (0.9 kg) net weight, the timer avoids sliding once it’s bolted down tight. Uses go from standard automation setups to odd spots on production rigs, as ratchet drives and base-mounts often find jobs everywhere — whenever a repeatable, quick-reset count is needed, no need to look twice at plastic builds. Reliable, numbers always clear, and trouble-free to reset, this timer stands up job after job.
