Product Description:

The CG913A3 is a single-function industrial timer manufactured by Danaher for the Timers and Controllers series. Designed for control panels that need precise on-delay sequencing, the unit plugs into an octal socket and provides repeatable timing so that contactors, solenoid valves, or indicator circuits energize only after a user-selected waiting period. By converting a simple control input into a delayed output, the timer supports conveyor indexing, pump purging, and heater warm-up routines without requiring a PLC for each discrete timing task. This focused operation is suitable for machines that require a consistent delay before an electrical load is activated.

The device runs on a nominal 120 VAC supply and accepts 50/60 Hz mains power, allowing it to operate in compatible control panels without a transformer. Mechanical installation uses a plug-in surface mount, meaning the timer clips into a base secured to a backplate while remaining easy to remove for service. That base is wired through a standard 8-pin octal connection, simplifying installation because many industrial relays use the same pin arrangement. The delay is adjusted using a knob with a calibrated scale. Its graduations provide a direct visual reading of the selected interval without requiring external measuring instruments. The socket-mounted design also keeps the wiring attached to the base when the timer is removed from the panel.

The timing logic is configured as a single-function timer, which provides one operating profile and reduces configuration complexity. Its selected profile is an on-delay function with a standard start; power energizes the timer immediately, and the load circuit closes only after the preset interval has elapsed. Recovery between cycles takes 50 ms, allowing machinery to begin another timing cycle shortly after a reset. The permitted operating temperature range is 0 to 60 °C, supporting continuous service in control cabinets on factory floors with limited climate control. The on-delay sequence is useful when equipment must wait for pressure, temperature, airflow, or another process condition to stabilize before a connected device starts. Its dedicated adjustment method also makes the selected delay visible directly at the control panel.
