Not knowing your application or context, I cannot give a definite answer.
However, having spent 30 years working on US Military cockpit avionics display systems, this is a common number used in these contexts for the watchdog timeout period. The video field rate is 60Hz, resulting in a field time of 16.667ms. The watchdog timeout period is set to 18ms to allow a little over a millisecond longer than the field time before resetting the processor, to allow for some video sync timing jitter.
Systems that were primarily stroke oriented typically used a watchdog timeout of about 17ms instead, to keep the field rate closer to 60Hz even when a timeout happened.
A few systems I worked on had watchdog timeout periods of 0.1s or longer. It all depended on application and context.

What is watchdog timer in microcontroller?
the watchdog timer is a circuit that will simply time out sending an alert telling peripheral devices that data is incorrect or at least non reliable
What is reset at the conclusion of each scan cycle by a processor when the scan time is less than the watchdog timer?
At the conclusion of each scan cycle, the processor resets the watchdog timer if the scan time is less than the watchdog timer duration. This reset indicates that the system is functioning correctly and responding within the expected time frame. If the scan cycle exceeds the watchdog timer, the timer will not be reset, potentially leading to a system fault or reset to safeguard against failures. This mechanism ensures system reliability and responsiveness.

A watchdog !
What does WDT stand for?
WDT stands for Watchdog Timer. It is a hardware mechanism that helps monitor the operation of a system and can reset it if certain events do not occur within a specified time frame.

What is the purpose of the Watchdog Timer feature of Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs)?
The Watchdog Timer feature in Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) serves to monitor the execution of the control program and ensure system reliability. It detects failures or malfunctions by resetting the PLC if the program does not complete its cycle within a predefined time frame. This mechanism helps prevent system hang-ups or unresponsive states, ensuring consistent operation and enhancing safety in automated processes. If the timer expires, it typically triggers a fault condition or system reset to restore normal functionality.
What dog keeps best time?
A watchdog!
What would the acceleration be if it took 10 seconds to go from 8ms to 18ms and why?
Divide the difference in speed by the time it takes. This will give you the average acceleration for that time period.
When was Time for Timer created?
Time for Timer was created in 1973.
What is timer advantage?
time interval most use the timer
What is Timer in microprocessor?
Timer means time between the signal waves
What is a programmable timer?
A programmable timer usually just means a timer that can be programmed to go off at any time.
