Eaton Crouse-Hinds DSDTS11H6 SA Timer - Class I/II Hazardous Locations
Part Number: DSDTS11H6 SA
Quick Summary
The Eaton Crouse-Hinds DSDTS11H6 SA timer is a rugged timing device for hazardous-area control in industrial facilities. Maintenance teams struggle with unreliable timers inside explosionproof enclosures, where field service demands isolation and downtime. It carries NEC/CEC compliance with Class I, Division 1 and Division 2 approvals, delivering safer, code-compliant operation. Aluminum housing and an 11-pole design support fast installation and reliable performance, reducing downtime and maintenance costs. Engineers benefit from consistent timing cycles in hazardous environments, enabling precise control of pumps, mixers, and safety interlocks. And procurement appreciates a rugged, standard-sized timer that fits common enclosures and simplifies stocking. This translates to reduced outages and faster repairs, which is critical for stay-in-business reliability.

Feature → Business Impact → Application: Aluminum construction provides rugged durability in harsh environments, reducing corrosion risk and extending service life in offshore and chemical plants; Impact: lower maintenance costs and fewer unscheduled outages; Application: fits in explosionproof enclosures where weight and heat dissipation matter. Feature → 11-pole configuration enables complex timing sequences without external add-ins; Impact: greater control fidelity and fewer mis-timed operations; Application: precise interlocks and pump control in process lines. Feature → 6-hour timing capability supports standard industrial cycle needs; Impact: predictable process steps and reduced operator intervention; Application: batching, sequencing, and safety interlocks in hazardous areas. Feature → NEC/CEC compliance with Class I Division 1 & Division 2 approvals; Impact: simplifies regulatory adherence and field acceptance; Application: chemical processing, oil & gas, and marine installations. Feature → Aluminum housing and compact footprint (3.5 in depth, 5.88 in height, 5.5 in width) ease mounting in standard switchgear and enclosures; Impact: faster installation, reduced integration risk; Application: retrofit projects and new builds in hazardous-location facilities. Industry context: Explosionproof timers like the DSD-TS family are widely adopted where uptime and safety are non-negotiable; gaining predictable timing reduces risk and accelerates commissioning. In practice, this translates to fewer field calls, diagnostic clarity, and improved project ROI.
