Mechanical Laboratory Countdown Timer 60 Minutes with Alarm

Wind-up countdown timer with a 0 to 60 minute range. No batteries, no mains connection — ready to use anywhere in the laboratory, including areas without power outlets or where electronic devices are restricted.

How It Works

Turn the rotary dial to the required time. The wind-up mechanism counts down autonomously. At zero, the audible alarm signals the technician — useful when multiple processes are running simultaneously and continuous monitoring of a single instrument is not practical.

Specifications

• Range: 0 to 60 minutes
• Mechanism: Mechanical wind-up, battery-free
• Alert: Audible alarm at end of cycle
• Setting: Direct-read rotary dial
• Power requirement: None

Typical Applications

Timing control for incubations, timed reactions, centrifugation, histological staining, and fixed-duration assays. Also used in teaching environments, where the straightforward mechanical design is an advantage over digital timers.

Commonly found in biology, microbiology, histopathology, and quality control laboratories.

Practical Advantages

No batteries to deplete at a critical moment. The physical dial is faster to set than navigating digital menus. Robust for daily bench use — no screen to protect, no buttons to jam.
