BRE7A601
The BRE7A601 electronic reset timer from Danaher, part of the Timers and Controllers series, is engineered to provide precise and reliable timing control in industrial automation applications. This surface-mount device operates at a Supply Voltage of 120 VAC 50/60 Hz and delivers a maximum Time Range of 5 Minutes with calibration in 15-second divisions. Encased in a Lexan, UL Recognized enclosure with a 9-terminal block configuration, the timer offers robust protection against environmental hazards. The unit features a compact form factor with an overall depth of 2.63 in (66.7 mm) and a total depth (including terminals) of 4.25 in (108 mm). With a flange thickness of 0.19 in (4.8 mm) and a mounting base width of 1.25 in (31.8 mm), installation on standard panels is straightforward and secure.
The BRE7A601 performance is distinguished by multiple contact arrangements, supporting both standard and reverse start modes through its dedicated Operation Mode circuitry. A microprocessor-driven timing mechanism ensures high accuracy, with a typical activation time of 150 ms and adjustable delays for timing flexibility. The dial is precisely marked for 15-second divisions, enabling operators to set intervals from 3 seconds up to 5 minutes without ambiguity. The device incorporates a Terminal Block Height of 0.61 in (15.8 mm) and a mounting slot distance of 1.77 in (44.8 mm) center-to-center for secure electrical connections. A pilot light remains illuminated whenever the timer is active, offering immediate visual feedback for operational status.
Reliability is assured by the high-impact strength of the Lexan, UL Recognized enclosure, which protects the internal electronics from mechanical shock and industrial contaminants. The timer’s Mounting Style of surface mount simplifies integration into control panels and distribution blocks, while its Enclosure Type with a 9-terminal block supports rapid wiring and maintenance. Because it operates over a wide temperature range (–23°C to 60°C), the BRE7A601 is suitable for diverse industrial environments, including material handling systems and automated production lines. Its dual-function Start/Stop and Reset inputs and robust contact rating make it ideal for applications requiring repeatable, precise timing intervals in conveyor controls, packaging equipment, and process instrumentation.
