Auto Shut-Off Timer

Our Timer is a versatile solution that is commonly used for welding, floor sweep, and other cleanup applications. It is particularly useful in workplaces where there is no electrical circuit where a volt or current sensor can be installed. The Timer can also be wired in parallel with the volt or current sensor to trigger the opening of a vacuum for machine cleaning after shifts.

Our workstation activity sensors are essential components of an efficient industrial ventilation system. Designed to detect when a workstation needs dust/mist/fume collection, these sensors signal the gate and control system, initiating the ventilation process. We recommend using one of our versatile and reliable sensors, including the Ecogate AC-DC Volt Sensor, capable of detecting input from 24-230V AC or DC, the Ecogate AC Volt Sensor, which detects input from 110-690V AC, or the Hawkeye Current Sensor, which reads current to the cutting motor. To override the Volt or Current sensor, we offer the convenient Shut-off Timer Switch, which can be set up to 60 minutes, making it ideal for cleaning workstations after a shift.

When To Use Timers
The timer is usually used in addition to the volt or current sensor for workstation cleaning after shifts; during cleaning the volt and current sensors are not active, but you can start ventilation (dust collection) with a timer. The timer can also be used for workstations without electrical circuits, like pneumatically operated tools for example. Some customers use timers for welding booths, however, laser sensors that detect the operator are preferable in this case.
