The DC-25C-TERM-KEY-PACE Production Timer Counter is one of our standard products designed to help production facilities set and maintain the pace of their operations. This unit provides a simple and effective way to monitor the number of products made per second or the amount of time it takes to produce each unit, offering real-time feedback that helps teams improve workflow, consistency, and efficiency on the production floor.

This product is typically used by companies that need a pace counter to determine their production speed — whether that’s tracking how many units are produced per second or the number of seconds it takes to complete a unit. With its easy-to-use wired keypad controller, operators can program their desired timing intervals, pause or resume operations, and instantly view the rate of production through a bright LED display that can be seen clearly from up to 120 feet away.

How It Works

Once powered, the user can set the seconds per unit or the units per second using the wired keypad controller. The system’s intuitive design allows for quick setup and reliable performance throughout the production process.

Here’s how it functions in operation:

• The wired keypad controller connects directly into the enclosure via a terminal ID block for secure communication.
• The keypad includes numeric buttons (0–9) and several functional buttons:
  • Set Seconds per Unit
  • Set Units per Second
  • Pause/Resume
  • Enter/Start
• Users can set the timer to count up based on their preferred production rate. For example, if a facility wants to measure one unit every 10 seconds, they would press the “Seconds per Unit” button, input “10,” and press “Enter/Start.” Every 10 seconds, the display increments by one digit — indicating one completed unit.
• If a user prefers to measure how many units are produced per second, they can select “Units per Second,” input the desired rate (for instance, 5 units per second), and start the counter. The display will increment accordingly to show the rate of production in real time.
• The Pause/Resume feature allows operators to temporarily stop counting without resetting the values, ideal for short breaks or equipment checks.
