These timers provide automatic control for pumps, cleaners and other types of loads. Timers have three-way mounting; flush in round opening, raised in.
It's simple to set up the Intermatic Programmable Pool Timer (01563113) series 3-circuit timer! Intermatic has seven pre-programmed modes for common pool and spa applications. Just choose the mode that best suits your needs! Mode 1 – (Aux1, Aux2, Aux3) Each of the three single pole circuits are defined generically, and can control any load within each of its individual circuit ratings. All three circuits act independent of each other. Applications: In Mode 1, the Intermatic Programmable Pool Timer (01563113) Three Circuit Clock Mechanism is ideal for pool or spa only applications where each piece of equipment is independently controlled. With the addition of a PE650 Receiver and PE953 Transmitter, you can easily add wireless control to your equipment and thermostat control to your pool or spa.
Each of the three circuits is rated for up to 3 HP and can handle both 120 VAC and 240 VAC equipment loads. This is the most versatile timer in the market today and can be added to almost all Intermatic control panels, both new and existing, making it ideal for upgrades to older Intermatic systems. Mode 2 – (Pump High, Pump Low, Aux3) Circuits one and two are dedicated single pole outputs for a two-speedpump load. Circuits one and two will never be ON at the same time, consistent with a two-speed pump application.
Circuit three is a single pole circuit for a generic load, and independent of circuits one and two. Applications: In Mode 2, the Intermatic Programmable Pool Timer (01563113) Three Circuit Clock Mechanism acts as a Two Speed Controller and can be used for two speed pool applications but is ideal for spa applications where the filter pump on the spa is used for filtering in low speed and used for jets in high speed. The remaining circuit can be used for spa lights or blower. With the addition of a PE650 Receiver and PE953 Transmitter, you can easily add wireless control to your equipment and thermostat control to your pool or spa. Mode 3 – (Pump, Aux2, Cleaner Pump) Circuits one and three are dedicated single pole outputs for a single-speed pump working with a pressure side cleaner pump.
Circuit three will never come ON unless circuit one is ON for at least one minute, consistent with a pressure side cleaner pump. Circuit two is a single pole circuit for a generic load, independent of circuits one and three. Applications: In Mode 3, the Intermatic Programmable Pool Timer (01563113) Three Circuit Clock Mechanism is ideal for pool applications where a Booster/Cleaner pump is being controlled. In this mode, if the Filter Pump is OFF, the Booster/Cleaner pump will activate the Filter Pump first and then turn itself ON when activated. This ensures adequate priming of the Booster/Cleaner pump. The remaining circuit can be used for lights. With the addition of a PE650 Receiver and PE953 Transmitter, you can easily add wireless control to your equipment and thermostat control to your pool.
Mode 4 – (Pump High, Pump Low, Cleaner Pump) Circuits one and two are dedicated single pole outputs for a two-speed pump load. Circuits one and two will never be ON at the same time, consistent with a two-speed pump application. Circuit three is also a dedicated single pole output for a pressure side cleaner pump.
Circuit three will never come ON unless circuit one is ON for at least one minute, consistent with a pressure side cleaner pump. Applications: In Mode 4, the Intermatic Programmable Pool Timer (01563113) Three Circuit Clock Mechanism acts as a Two Speed Controller and is ideal for pool applications where a booster/cleaner pump is being controlled. In this mode, if the filter pump is OFF or in low speed, the booster/cleaner pump will activate the filter pump in high speed first and then turn itself ON when activated. This ensures adequate priming of the booster/cleaner pump. With the addition of a PE650 Receiver and PE953 Transmitter, you can easily add wireless control to your equipment and thermostat control to your pool. Mode 5 – (Pump, Pump, Aux3) Circuits one and two are now coupled together making one circuit capable of switching the power source to one pump.
The ON/OFF button for circuit one now controls both circuit one and two simultaneously. The ON/OFF button for circuit two is disabled. Circuit three remains a single pole circuit for a generic load, and is independent of circuits one and two. Applications: In Mode 5, the Intermatic Programmable Pool Timer (01563113) Three Circuit Clock Mechanism acts as a two circuit clock to allow the breaking of both hot legs in a 240 VAC equipment hookup on circuit #1.
Even though the P1353ME is not a disconnect, and you can easily control a 240 VAC load by breaking only one leg, some wiring situations may dictate breaking both legs of a 240 VAC load. It is good service practice to always open the equipment circuit breaker and red tag it appropriately when working on pool or spa equipment.
When working on equipment, DO NOT rely on any clock to disconnect power. The clock may be scheduled to turn ON during servicing. Mode 6 – (Aux1, Aux2, Aux3) Identical to Mode 1, in which each of the three single pole circuits are defined generically and can control any load within each of its individual circuit ratings, with all three circuits acting independent of each other. However, with Mode 6, the fireman switch closes only when Circuit 1 (the filter pump) is manually turned ON, not when the clock turns it ON. This mode is useful when you have Circuit 1 connected to a circulation pump in the spa. When the spa is not in use, the clock circulates the water to filter it, but does not turn ON the heater. When the spa is in use, the heater is also turned ON by manually switching Circuit 1 ON.
Applications: In Mode 6, the Intermatic Programmable Pool Timer (01563113) Three Circuit Clock Mechanism is ideal for spa applications where you need to control three pieces of individual equipment (circulation pump, blower, light), but do not want to heat the spa while it’s not in use. Mode 7 – (Pump High, Pump Low, Aux3) Circuits one and two are dedicated single pole outputs for a two-speed pump load. Circuits one and two will never be ON at the same time, consistent with a two-speed pump application. Circuit three is a single pole circuit tied to circuits one and two and used to control the common line of the two speed pump. In Mode 7, all three circuits are used to control the two-speed pump and break both legs of a 240 Volt pump installation.
Applications: In Mode 7, the Intermatic Programmable Pool Timer (01563113) Three Circuit Clock Mechanism acts as a two-speed controller and can be used for two-speed pool applications but is ideal for spa applications where the filter pump on the spa is used for filtering in low speed and used for jets in high speed. The remaining circuit is used to open the second hot leg of a 240 Volt two-speed installation when the pump is turned to the OFF position. With the addition of a PE650 Receiver and PE953 Transmitter, you can easily add wireless control to your equipment and add thermostat control to your pool or spa.

This seriously might be my best purchase of the year. I like having the front porch lights on for security reasons. Can I remember to turn them on? How about remembering to turn them off in the morning? Absolutely not. This lovely timer takes care of that for me.
I have it controlling 3 9w (60w equivalent) LED bulbs. What sold me on this particular model is that it has a legitimate relay (and that awesome relay 'click') so it should be much more reliable long term than those with electronic relays.
Setup is a bit confusing, read the directions and tinker with it and you'll get it. Shouldn't need to mess with it again, so its a one time hassle. I have mine set to come on as dusk and off at dawn, with the ' random' feature enabled so it doesn't look like a timer. Once in a while we come across really neat products that make one feel especially good about the purchase. This is such a product - a nice, clever device.
It works very well automatically, adjusting to normal sunrise/sunset variation. And it operates like a normal manual switch for manual operation. In my case that is useful because there is a duplex plug outdoors on the light circuit, which I use in the daytime for electric yard tools. It is rather large so be sure you have room for the wires. Mine is located along side a manual light switch in a double box and that works. I think it might be tight in a single box, especially one that is shallow depth or one that already includes several large wire nuts.
I use it to control carriage type lights located near the. This is the only timer model I've ever purchased that has not eventually failed on me. I have owned several different outlet timers from several different manufacturers over the years.
One by one they have all failed and been replaced by one of these. I am now using this timer exclusively, for the sole reason that these are the only ones that have never needed to be replaced. Simply put, they are solid and long-lasting. If you don't need better precision or more settings than this model provides, then this is the one you should get, hands down.
Very nice looking and easy to program light switches. Sure beats the old round dial type. Hoping they last longer than the old type. I bought seven of them and so far they all work fine. Only drawback, as mentioned by other reviewers, is the size. They can be a real bear to get stuffed in a box that's crowded with wire. I had one I fought for an hour before I finally got wires moved around to the point I could get it in.
I about gave up and I don't quit easily. Something they really need to work on is the size, Otherwise, very pleased and I would have given 5 stars. Came in ivory, too! Now I don't have to have an ugly white old dial type on an ivory switch plate. Our pool cleaner timer started slowing down until it stopped working altogether. Since Leslies, our local pool store, is usually overpriced I made my purchase on Amazon.
I already had a box which houses two timers, so I didn’t need the enclosure, only the timer. The Intermatic T104 208-277V 60Hz double pole single throw 24 hour mechanical time switch, made in Mexico, withstands temperature extremes, has a built in surge protector, and uses a heavy duty gear train. To install, I shut off power at the breaker box, removed the wire connections from the old timer being careful to mark placement with tape, and popped out the old unit. Then I secured the new timer into place, reconnected the wires, turned the power back on and set the dial to the correct time.
Setting the timer simply requires screwing the ASIN:B0036ZY1KQ on and off trippers into place. I was replacing a very old timer made by the same company so I had taken a photo of the old one to be sure I was getting the same thing. When I got them side by side I realized they were basically still exactly the same and not only that, the internal parts were all mounted on a steel plate that could be easily released by a tab and removed. Then I inserted the new one and connected three or four internal wires. Point it I didn't have to remove the outer box from the wall and re-insert the power wires etc. Easiest electrical box switch I've ever done. Has Intermatic model differences and MUCH better programming instructions than printed instructions that come with the timer.
The EJ600 replaced a EJ500 model which was still working well after 15 years. Replacement was necessary to properly use LEDs in outdoor lights. LEDs on the EJ500 model would briefly 'flash' when off. I like the astronomical feature which allows lights to be turned off or on precisely at sunset or sunrise. Longitude and latitude is 'automatically' determined by the EJ600's cleverly designed program when the owner enters the time zone and then manually corrects the displayed sunset time to the time of that day's actual sunset time.
This corrections is only required once- at initial setup. My lights go ON at sunset and OFF at 11:00 pm and then ON at 7:00AM and OFF at sunrise (if sunrise before 7:00AM, the lights don't go. My mother drives me crazy with needing this changed because it clicks so loud as it gets older.
I always figured she had me changing it because it was no working, but I was wrong she just didn't like the clicking sound. So this time I finally got it out of her why i have been changing them. It wasn't had at all to change at all, I just make sure that the power is off before I disconnect it. Takes a total of 15 minutes from start to finish.
I like to keep the pins that are used for the timer. Trick from pulling out the pins use small pliers and wiggly.
Can't stand it when the bathroom exhaust fan is left on for hours in the hottest part of summer or coldest in winter? If your exhaust fan is properly sized, it will exchange all the air in the room in 10 minutes. If you want more, set it to 15.
They're made in 1-hr & many others, but I'm not sure you can find them here. Turn CCW and it will lock into an always-on position. (Say if you've painted the walls.) Here's the point - it's not the energy used by the fan. For every hour it runs, based on 10-min room air change, somewhere in the house (probably right next to where you're sitting) it pulls in 6 bathrooms of outside air.
Otherwise your ears would pop. Your HVAC system has to heat or cool that air. You should not use the. This Intermatic EI220 timer has replaced a failing rotary mechanical timer for a whole house fan. It works well. Running times have accurately matched the chosen settings, usually one or two hours.
The timer requires a neutral (white) wire in the electrical box as well as the power that's being switched (black). The mechanical timer does not require the neutral, so I should have looked for that wire before ordering, Fortunately the white wire was there. Times of 1-2-4-8-ON are fine but wish it also had one half and 3 hours. The noisy old mechanical would give any odd interval like that, though with much less precision.
