Product Description:
The BRE3A6 timing device is manufactured by Danaher as part of the Timers and Controllers series. It is a single-shot relay intended to insert precise delays into industrial sequences, allowing conveyors, heaters, or clutches to start or stop after a selected interval. The product houses its electromechanical and solid-state circuitry in a Lexan enclosure that withstands daily plant handling. Its surface-mount baseplate supports secure installation without requiring changes to the upstream controller wiring.
It is powered by a 120 VAC control circuit and consumes only 1.5 W, so it imposes minimal load on transformer capacity. The internal oscillator is synchronized with the plant power supply at 50/60 Hz, preventing frequency drift between regions. Output contacts are rated for a resistive load of 10 A at 240 VAC, while a separate solid-state path supplies 0.5 A at 125 VDC for logic interlocks. A fractional-horsepower rating of 1/4 HP indicates the largest induction motor that can be started across the contacts without auxiliary starters. The front dial covers the full timing range, with pointer alignment maintained within 3% of full scale and a minimum usable setpoint equal to 2% of that range. All terminations connect to a nine-point screw socket that accepts stranded or solid conductors up to 16 AWG. This socket arrangement keeps incoming control power, relay contacts, and reset wiring organized at the mounting location.
When voltage is applied, the relay waits through an internal activation delay of 150 ms before timing begins, allowing upstream signals to stabilize. Once the selected interval is complete, with a maximum duration of 15 s, the Form C contacts transfer with repeatability maintained within ±0.25% of full scale, supporting cycle-to-cycle consistency in machine indexing or dwell operations. If the supply is removed or a reset input is pulsed, the device clears in only 1 ms, enabling rapid sequence restarts in high-speed tooling applications where delays between strokes must be minimized.
