Product Description:

The MP8A609 is an industrial cam timer produced by Danaher for automated machinery that depends on repeatable switching events. It sequences machine circuits through a rotating cam program, allowing conveyors, index tables, and packaging lines to coordinate each step with predictable timing. This style of control is useful when several actions must occur in a fixed order during every operating cycle. It fits electromechanical systems that favor direct, visual adjustment over software-based sequencing at panel level.

Rotation is provided by a synchronous motor, which keeps timing tied to line frequency for stable cycle progression. The unit accepts 120-240 V / 50-60 Hz, so the same timer can be applied in panels serving different regional power systems. A selectable range of 6 seconds to 36 hours lets the mechanism cover short indexing routines as well as very long process intervals.

It controls 8 isolated circuits, allowing multiple outputs to be sequenced from one shaft. Each switching point can be set within 1% of the total cycle, which helps maintain repeatable timing between related machine events. Cam positions are adjustable, and the shaft turns in a continuous energized mode to avoid abrupt starts during operation. Once set, the timer remains 100% consistent with cam settings, supporting dependable sequencing within the Timers and Controllers family.

Wake Industrial stocks this cam timer and offers same-day shipping when schedules are tight. Every purchase includes a 1-year warranty. For clarification on wiring codes or cam programming, customers can use the chat tool available on the website.
