BR18A6

Product Description:

The BR18A6 from Danaher comes in as part of the Timers and Controllers lineup, giving basic, no-fuss timing for industrial machines. Voltage support reads as 120V 50/60 Hz, and the timing range stretches from 0 to 10 minutes—so shorter cycles or holding tasks both work here. Built with SPDT contacts, each rated for 10A at 125–250 VAC and 1/2A at 125–250 VDC, this timer handles everyday switching without stressing over ratings. Setup is straightforward since the base mount layout keeps things easy, and the manual reset lets workers bring the system back in line quickly if there’s a snag.

Housing is finished in rugged Lexan, guarding the electronics from bumps or basic shop dust. No fan setup, fans, or airflow quirks—everything’s sealed tight and out of harm’s way as long as the main panel cover stays put. Clean installation connects by a 9-position screw terminal block, making swaps out or troubleshooting a lot easier than some bigger, plug-packed relays. Inside the case, a microprocessor-driven operating principle checks time and switching, so there’s no dial drift or bouncing contacts over time. Once set, response repeats with no surprises, even after quick resets or starts.

Contacts stand up for both AC and DC work, and each connection lands without play. Physical size keeps things simple—measuring 2.625 in high, 1.25 in wide (or 66.7 x 31.8 mm if that fits better on the spec sheet), depth at 2.625 in base, 4.25 in counting terminals, so small panels or crowded junction boxes won’t get jammed up. Only a straightforward figure height of 0.188 in sits above the case. Most shop floor techs lean toward this model for repetitive operations or where controlling process holds is the goal. The main twist: just set, wire, and count on consistent, low-maintenance service run after run.
