This timer can be used for ignition of sustainer motors in multistage rockets and ignition of air-started auxiliary motors. It can also be used for accurately timed deployment of recovery devices in lieu of the sometimes variable delay times associated with the motor's built-in delay grain. Delay time can be set with 0.1 second resolution via an on-board pushbutton.
The miniTimer3T is designed to be triggered via a user-supplied breakwire or pull-pin (the MT3G version includes a built-in G switch trigger). Igniter continuity is reported via a built-in beeper, which doubles as a post-flight locator siren.
The miniTimer3’s extremely high current capability allows the use of virtually any igniter type, as well as multi-igniter clusters. When powered by a suitable battery, firing 50 ematches simultaneously is possible!
