Count Up timer

The DC-40T-UP-BCD-ANDON-HORN-WR is designed for industrial environments where tracking time-to-threshold processes is essential. This unit combines precision time tracking with automatic alerts, ensuring that operators are notified both visually and audibly when a process surpasses the designated time limit.

This particular model is a count-up timer, meaning it starts at zero and counts upward toward a user-defined threshold value. What sets it apart is the use of BCD rotary switches for setting the countdown limit. These switches are mounted on top of the unit, accessible via a simple flathead screwdriver. The default setting is for minutes and seconds, but it can be configured for hours and minutes upon request.

Once the timer reaches the pre-set threshold:

  • The ANDON light begins flashing continuously
  • The horn sounds for three seconds
  • The system remains in alert mode until manually reset and restarted

This makes the DC-40T-UP-BCD-ANDON-HORN-WR ideal for operations where timely manual intervention is critical—such as assembly lines, QA checkpoints, or cycle time tracking in manufacturing.

Key Features:

  • BCD-settable count-up timer using rotary switches
  • Time limit adjustable up to 99 minutes and 59 seconds
  • Large, clear 4-inch red LEDs visible from a distance
  • Bright ANDON light mounted to the enclosure
  • 3-second horn alert upon threshold completion
  • Rugged all-aluminum enclosure
  • Terminal block connections for reset/start
  • Wired pigtail connection for the horn
  • Designed for quick setup and reliable performance

The rotary switches provide tactile detents, making it easy to select precise settings without accidentally shifting values. In a demonstration setup, the unit was configured for a 10-second process, triggering the ANDON and horn quickly. For actual production environments, the timer can be configured for longer durations—such as the customer-requested 2-minute interval.

This system offers dual outputs—one visual (flashing ANDON light) and one audible (horn)—to ensure operators are unmistakably alerted when the time threshold is reached. Whether you’re looking to monitor manual cycle times or ensure standardized process durations, the DC-40T-UP-BCD-ANDON-HORN-WR provides a reliable, durable solution made entirely in the USA.
