SL3-120-RFAFGF

The Danaher SL3-120-RFAFGF timer from the Timers and Controllers series is engineered for robust industrial automation applications. It operates on a supply voltage of 120V AC with a voltage tolerance of +10%/-15% and a frequency of 60 Hz, supporting a time range of 5 seconds to 60 hours for flexible timing control. The device features a reset time of 0.5 seconds max and delivers an electrical life of 250,000 operations at full load, making it suitable for high-cycling environments. With an output rating of 10A at 120 VAC and 5A at 240 VAC, the SL3-120-RFAFGF handles resistive loads reliably. The unit’s Approximate Weight of 2 lb 14 oz and compact dimensions facilitate easy panel mounting, while its Temperature Range from -18°C to +60°C ensures consistent performance under varying environmental conditions.

Performance is further optimized by precise timing and power characteristics. The timer achieves an Average Pull-in Time of 28 ms and an Average Drop-out Time of 17 ms, enabling accurate transition between on and off states. It exhibits Repeat Accuracy of ±0.05 sec, guaranteeing repeatable cycle times over extended operation. Electrical consumption is characterized by a Burden (clutch) of 10.5 VA and a Burden (motor) of 2.45 VA at 120 VAC, minimizing load on control circuits. Vibration testing confirms the unit is Unaffected by 2.5G from 10 to 900 Hz, ensuring stable operation in machinery with dynamic mechanical loads. The integrated stack light indicator and built-in buzzer operate at a default sound frequency of 2800 Hz and 105 dB at 3.3 ft, combining visual and audible alarms without significant additional power draw.

Reliability is inherent in the SL3-120-RFAFGF’s design, with protective tolerances against voltage fluctuations and environmental stressors. Its Voltage Tolerance and Vibration Resistance standards support seamless integration into manufacturing lines, process controls, and safety interlock systems. The modular stack light format simplifies installation alongside PLCs and motor controllers, enabling clear status signaling in noisy or low-visibility areas. With a half-second maximum reset and fast pull-in/drop-out response, the timer minimizes downtime and supports rapid fault detection. Ideal for industrial automation, packaging, assembly lines, and conveyor control, the SL3-120-RFAFGF combines precision timing with durable construction to enhance system uptime and operator safety.
