Intermatic T1471BR Timer

The Intermatic T1471BR is a commercial-grade 24-hour mechanical time switch engineered for heavy-duty automation in demanding HVACR and industrial environments. This unit operates on 120V AC 60Hz and features a 4PST contact configuration, allowing for the simultaneous control of multiple circuits or multi-pole loads up to 40 Amps per pole. Housed in a rugged NEMA 3R outdoor metal enclosure, it provides superior protection against rain, sleet, and dust, making it a standard choice for controlling pool pumps, large lighting arrays, and ventilation systems. The integrated skip-a-day feature offers advanced scheduling flexibility by allowing users to omit operation on selected days of the week, while the 1-hour minimum timing intervals ensure precise mechanical accuracy without the failure points of digital components. For field testing and maintenance, the native manual override switch permits circuit toggling without disrupting the established timing sequence.

Technical Benefits for Contractors

• High-Capacity Loading: Rated for 40 Amps resistive per pole, providing a reliable solution for heavy inductive motor loads and industrial equipment.
• Environmental Resilience: The NEMA 3R enclosure includes a lockable hasp and side-opening door to ensure field durability in extreme weather.
• Simplified Scheduling: Mechanical 1-hour intervals and skip-a-day tabs allow for rapid configuration without complex programming menus.
• Multi-Circuit Control: The 4-pole single-throw design facilitates the switching of four separate 120V lines or multiple phases simultaneously.

Common Questions

Can the T1471BR be used for 3-phase applications?
While it features four contacts, this specific model is rated for 120V clock motor operation. It is commonly used to switch multiple legs of a load, but the control voltage must match the 120V motor specification. Always verify your wiring diagram for phase-to-phase compatibility.

Does this timer include the trippers required for setup?
Yes, the unit comes standard with one ON and one OFF tripper. Additional trippers can be installed to allow for multiple cycles within a 24-hour period, supporting up to 12 ON/OFF operations.

Is the enclosure suitable for coastal environments?
The NEMA 3R metal enclosure is finished with an electrostatically applied grey powder coat for corrosion resistance, though for high-salinity coastal areas, contractors often prefer the Intermatic plastic enclosure equivalent to prevent long-term oxidation.
