Intermatic T171 Timer
The Intermatic T171 is a heavy-duty 24-hour mechanical time switch engineered for contractors who require precise, reliable control over electrical loads up to 40 Amps per pole. This SPST (Single Pole Single Throw) timer is specifically designed for 125V applications where a "skip-a-day" feature is critical for energy management and operational efficiency. The integrated Skip-a-Day function, facilitated by three provided skipper screws, allows you to omit scheduling for specific days of the week, making it the ideal solution for commercial lighting, HVAC ventilation, and pool pump systems that do not require daily cycling. Housed in a rugged NEMA 1 indoor metal enclosure with a lockable hasp, this mechanical switch features a 24-hour dial with 1-hour minimum intervals. The Intermatic T171 timer supports a wide range of loads, including inductive, tungsten, and 1000 VA pilot duty, ensuring compatibility with your most demanding field installations without the need for battery backups.
