Bard 8201-078BX Timer
The Bard 8201-078BX Timer is a critical 24V bypass timer designed for precise sequencing and operational reliability in commercial and industrial HVAC systems. As the 8201-078 direct replacement, this component ensures seamless integration with existing Bard wall-mount units, maintaining the intended logic for HVAC bypass timing. This solid-state module is specifically utilized to bypass low pressure control safety switches during initial startup cycles, preventing nuisance trips in low ambient conditions where suction pressures may temporarily dip. By providing a fixed or adjustable delay—typically factory-set to 120 seconds—the 8201-078BX allows the refrigerant cycle to stabilize before the safety circuit monitors the system. This HVAC replacement part is engineered for high-duty cycles, ensuring that airflow and temperature regulation remain consistent in demanding environments. For technicians servicing Bard equipment, using a genuine 24V bypass timer is essential to preserving the OEM specifications and protecting the compressor from unnecessary cycling or lockout during critical startup phases.
Key Benefits- Direct OEM Replacement: Replaces legacy part number 8201-078 with no modifications required to the mounting footprint or 24V wiring.
- Enhanced System Stability: Effectively manages the low pressure bypass function to ensure smooth compressor engagement during cold-weather startups.
- Technical Precision: Built to Bard manufacturing standards, ensuring high-tolerance timing accuracy and long-term durability in heavy-duty industrial applications.
- Simplified Diagnostics: Standard 24V operation allows for rapid field testing and verification of the control circuit logic.
Is the 8201-078BX compatible with older Bard wall-mount models?
Yes, the "BX" suffix indicates a current production standard; this part is the direct 24V successor for the original 8201-078 series and maintains 100% functional compatibility with existing control boards.
What is the primary function of this bypass timer in the circuit?
This timer transitions the system through the initial startup phase by temporarily ignoring the low-pressure switch signal. This prevents the unit from shutting down before the refrigeration system reaches its operating pressure equilibrium.
Can this module be used in 120V or 240V control circuits?
No, this specific model is a 24V bypass timer. Applying line voltage to the control terminals will result in immediate component failure. Always verify your transformer output before installation.
