It uses a Form C (SPDT) relay to power the controlled load and includes heartbeat monitoring that, on timeout, can drive alarms or interlocks and even power an optional external lamp to indicate a fault. The module mounts on a DIN rail (snap-on, vertical alignment) and measures roughly 3.72 inches long, 1 inch wide, and 4 inches high, with M3 screw terminals for wiring sized 30–12 AWG and a recommended torque of 5 in-lb. It is powered from a 24 V DC supply and features front-panel indicators plus two recessed pushbuttons, including a bypass button to disable the heartbeat monitor when needed; three status LEDs convey operation, fault, and bypass states. The 6HBWDOG1 carries hazardous-location certifications and is designed for harsh industrial environments, backed by a very high MTBF of 4,018,881 hours at 40°C (MIL-HNDBK-217F2). In typical use, the device monitors the pulsing output of a connected controller and, if the heartbeat is lost within the configured timeout, the built-in Form C contact switches state to drive fault signals or initiate a safe shutdown, making it suitable for safety-critical applications in oil and gas, power, and process automation where reliable heartbeat verification is essential. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Red","offers":[{"title":"Used Surplus - Excellent Condition","offer_id":46285498253546,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0716\/8039\/3450\/files\/GTG-STOCK-024.png?v=1788727428","url":"https:\/\/gtghardware.com\/products\/red-lion-controls-6hbwdog1-watchdog-relay-spdt","provider":"GTG Hardware","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
