Diehl/Borg Timers

Captive tripper timers, also known as captive or captive-wheel timers, are a type of mechanical timer commonly used for scheduling and controlling the operation of electrical devices or systems. They are widely employed in applications such as lighting control, HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) systems, irrigation systems, and other timed operations.

Captive tripper timers offer the ability to set specific on/off schedules or timing intervals using rotating discs or "trippers" that engage and disengage electrical contacts. Captive tripper timers are valued for their simplicity, durability, and ease of use. They offer a cost-effective solution for automating timed operations without relying on electronic or digital technologies.

Captive tripper timers are typically used to control activities that must be performed at regular intervals.

Borg General offers heavy duty 40-amp synchronous time switches that provide accurate timing for daily or weekend programs via captive trippers.

These captive tripper timers are simple and fast to program, are synchronous motor driven, and have indicators that show the status of the timer.

Popular applications include heaters, filters, pumps, indoor and outdoor lighting, signs, fans, blowers, air conditioning, feeders, security/alarm systems, and process control.

Digital timers are electronic devices that provide accurate and precise timing functions using digital displays and controls. They are commonly used in various settings, including homes, offices, laboratories, industrial facilities, and sports activities.

Digital timers offer numerous features and advantages over traditional mechanical timers, such as increased accuracy, programmability, multiple timing modes, and advanced functionalities. Digital timers provide accuracy, precision, and flexibility in managing time intervals for various applications. They offer convenience, advanced features, and the ability to customize timing settings according to specific needs.

Compact digital timers provide precise timing with the flexibility of daily and/or weekly programming. Simple and fast to set by means of push buttons and display prompts.

Popular digital timer applications include heaters, filters, pumps, fans, signs, blowers, indoor and outdoor lighting, feeders, security/alarm systems and process controls.

Interval timers, also known as intervalometers, are devices used to measure and control specific time intervals. They are commonly used in various applications that require timing functions such as interval training, workout routines, photography, scientific experiments, and industrial processes.

Interval timers offer the ability to set specific time intervals and provide alerts or actions at the end of each interval. Interval timers come in different forms, including standalone devices, smartphone apps, or software applications. They offer flexibility and precision in managing time intervals, helping individuals and professionals adhere to specific timing requirements in their respective activities.

Interval timers provide accurate countdown timing resulting in a switched 15-amp relay and audible timeout alarm.

Front buttons or membrane keyboard adjust the countdown on the interval timers, and the previous setting is kept in memory to facilitate repeat functions.

Popular applications of interval timers include medical equipment, process control devices, commercial cooking appliances, pool/spa installations and exercise equipment.

A springwound timer is a type of mechanical timer that operates using a wound-up spring mechanism. It is a simple and reliable device commonly used for timing applications where precise time intervals are required. Springwound timers are often found in various settings, including households, commercial buildings, and industrial environments.

Springwound timers are valued for their simplicity, reliability, and ease of use. They do not rely on external power sources, making them suitable for areas with limited or no electrical power access. However, it's important to note that springwound timers do not provide advanced features like digital display, programmability, or automatic shut-off.

This Springwound Timer is heavy-duty and high-quality, with various timers and functional options. Knobs and dials with various decor are available at additional cost.

Housing enclosure timers, also known as timer enclosures or timer boxes, are enclosures or boxes specifically designed to house and protect timing devices or timers. These enclosures provide a secure and protective housing for timers used in various applications, such as industrial processes, automation systems, or electrical installations.

Housing enclosure timers provide a protective and organized solution for housing timers, ensuring their proper functioning and longevity in demanding environments. They help safeguard timers from external influences while allowing for convenient access, visibility, and wiring management.

Housing and accessories are available as completely assembled built-in timer modules or provided in a parts kit. They are also available as wall mounted electronic enclosures for permanent installation.

These housings and accessories are easy to mount using slide-on brackets or clips.
