Intermatic T101 Timer

For high-capacity load scheduling in commercial or residential environments, the Intermatic T101 mechanical time switch remains the industry standard for durability and ease of installation. This 24-hour dial timer is engineered with a heavy-duty 40-amp resistive rating, making it a reliable solution for governing electric water heaters, indoor lighting arrays, and HVACR equipment. Operating on a 120V AC 60Hz supply, the unit features a single-pole single-throw (SPST) switch configuration housed within a rugged NEMA 1 indoor metal enclosure. Designed for the professional contractor, the Intermatic T101 timer 120V utilizes a high-torque clock motor to manage up to 12 ON/OFF operations per day with a minimum interval of one hour. The teeter-type terminals facilitate secure copper wire connections (14-8 AWG), ensuring stable performance for inductive and tungsten loads up to 40 amps. A built-in manual override lever allows for immediate circuit testing or adjustment without disrupting the programmed schedule. Whether you are replacing an aging mechanical time switch or installing a new indoor pool pump timer, the T101 provides the mechanical precision required for demanding electrical applications.

• Heavy-Duty 40A Rating: Capable of managing high-amperage 120V loads, including 2 HP motors and large resistive heating elements.
• Rugged NEMA 1 Enclosure: The drawn steel indoor case features multiple 1/2-inch and 3/4-inch knockouts for flexible conduit entry.
• Proven Mechanical Reliability: Simple dial interface with adjustable trippers eliminates the complexities of electronic programming for long-term service.
• Manual Override Switch: Provides rapid control of the connected load for maintenance or troubleshooting without affecting the 24-hour cycle.

• How do I set the current time on the Intermatic T101? Pull the clock dial outward and rotate it in either direction until the time pointer aligns with the correct time of day, then push the dial back in to engage the motor.
• Can this timer handle a 240V load? No, the T101 is specifically a 120V model. For 240V applications, use the T104 model or replace the clock motor with a 240V equivalent.
• What do I do if the timer loses power? Because this is a mechanical clock, you must manually reset the dial to the current time after any power interruption to restore the schedule.
