Custom Safety Days Counter Displays for Tropicana, Custom made for specific areas of the body.

These displays, called the DC-25-OEM-DAYS, are designed to count one full increment every 24 hours, representing one day since the last recorded incident or accident. This system helps reinforce workplace safety by providing a highly visible reminder of how many days have passed without a lost-time injury.
Tropicana is incorporating these counters into their own custom signage. Each display is designed to seamlessly fit into an opening within their branded signage or artwork. By doing so, the message of workplace safety integrates directly with their corporate identity.
Key Features of the DC-25-OEM-DAYS
- Four-inch high count-up day timers for maximum visibility
- Increment, decrement, and reset switches mounted on top for ease of use
- Aluminum back plate and hardware for mounting into custom signage
- Red acrylic lens for clarity and durability
- Double AA battery backup on the back plate, ensuring accuracy even if main power is lost
- Centralized power supply connection, keeping all displays synchronized
Each unit increments once per day and, because they are tied to the same power source, all of them will update simultaneously. This synchronization is critical when multiple displays are deployed across various locations in a facility.
Tropicana requested that the set switches be mounted on the back of the aluminum plate, instead of the front, allowing for a cleaner visual presentation once the displays are installed into their panels. For demonstration purposes, only a few units are shown, but Tropicana has ordered several to be used throughout their operations.
In addition to the four-inch models, DC-Digital also manufactures larger six-inch count-up timers. These can be customized with environmentally sealed switches for more rugged environments, ensuring functionality even under demanding conditions.
Operating the DC-25-OEM-DAYS is simple. To increment the count, you press the button once, or hold it down for faster scrolling until the correct number is reached. The decrement function fine-tunes the display, and a reset switch quickly brings the counter back to zero.
DC-Digital also provides flexibility with control options. Depending on your requirements, our count-up day timers can be operated with:
- Push-button switches (like Tropicana’s configuration)
- RF-wireless controls
- Network-based web page access for remote control and monitoring via LAN or WAN
This specific project represents more than just custom engineering. It’s about raising awareness and prioritizing safety. By integrating these displays into their signage, Tropicana is reinforcing the importance of protecting both employees and workplace environments.
DC-Digital worked alongside Fast Signs to help Tropicana achieve this goal. Together, the solution serves as a strong visual reminder: safety comes first, and awareness saves lives.
The DC-25-OEM-DAYS provides a straightforward, reliable way to track days since the last recordable injury, while at the same time building a culture of accountability and care within the workplace.
