Paragon 4001-00 24-hr Timer Control 120v Ac Cd101 Logo
Posted on Aug 29, 2011

Timer not working on 4000 series, think its 4014 single pole single switch for pool pump. pump turns on when manually turn switch on but timer does not move. I feel the normal resistance and can move the dial but it just wont keep time. Have source blk to terminal 1 and source white to terminal 3 along with pump white wire. Have pump black to terminal 2. Have ground from source and pump to screw up next to timer dial. Is the timer just not working anymore?

1) If circuit breaker is not tripped or shorted, then timer clock motor has probably gone bad.

2) Some places still sell paragon timers, depending on model number.
But model number given is for 240Volt timer.

3) The clock motor is not available that I can find.
Paragon is no longer making the 4000 series timers or parts
http://waterheatertimer.org/Paragon-timers-and-manuals.html#4000

4) Model number given does not match wiring terminals shown in manual.
4014 is DPST 240Volt timer with 4 wiring terminals labeled 1 2 3 4.
http://waterheatertimer.org/pdf/Paragon-4000-series.pdf

5) Paragon 4000 series timer with terminals 1 2 3 is 120Volt timer.

6) Replace 120Volt timer with Intermatic T101 indoor timer or T101R outdoor timer.
Crossover wiring:
Paragon terminal 1 goes to Intermatic terminal 1
Paragon terminal 2 goes to Intermatic terminal 2
Paragon terminals 3 goes to Intermatic terminal A

Intermatic t1202T 240v dual pool timer. Main pump continues to run and manual overide will not shut it off. Changed the timer mechanisim and same thing. Disconnected the Freeze control and it wil

Maybe the PF1202?
Probably just the freeze thermostat and not the relay.
Disconnect freeze thermostat wires from relay... and substitute a single-pole switch.
Be careful... power is ON

Do not leave the single-pole switch connected since 15 amp rating of typical switch is less than amp rating for 40 amp pool centers

Looking for set of trippers for paragon 4014-20 pool timer

Copy following link to identify timer:
http://waterheatertimer.org/Paragon-timers-and-manuals.html#4000

Paragon 4000 series uses X2772 tripper
Paragon is no longer making timers except for defrost times.
There is a new line of timers coming from China that looks identical to Paragon 4000, and uses same tripper. As a result this timer design and trippers could be around for years to come.

Replacement timer is Intermatic T104R 240Volt indoor outdoor enclosure, with replacement parts widely available

My timer for my water feature looks like your Intermatic T101R3 timer. I do not have an instruction manual. Can you e-mail me some simple instructions for using this so I won't get charged an...

T101R3 is outdoor pool timer with fireman's switch.
Some are double-pole, some are single pole, some are 240V and others are 120V.
They each look like the other so eyeball identification is not enough information.
The model number should be inside door of timer.
http://www.poolandspacontrols.com/products/mechanical%20time%20switches/pool%20and%20spa%20time%20switches.aspx
http://www.intermatic.com/products/timers/mechanical%20time%20switches/24%20hour%20dial.aspx
http://www.intermatic.com/customer%20service/instruction%20manuals.aspx

I have been unable to locate manual specific for these products, and I have looked.
I was looking yesterday for this instruction manual.
Some wiring diagrams appear on following page, but again it depends on your specific model
http://waterheatertimer.org/How-to-wire-T104-Intermatic-timer.html
http://waterheatertimer.org/Intermatic-trippers-and-parts.html#T100

The T101R series is designed to control pool pump and pool heater.
Fireman's switch automatically turns off pool heater 20 minutes before pool pump is scheduled to turn off.
So you set the trippers on dial, and then the fireman's switch does the rest automatically.

Add a comment with in-focus photo of inside of timer door and I can put together all the information and simplify instructions. Put your digital camera in 'macro' with the flower-symbol to take close-up photos. Photo has to be in focus so I can read information and see wiring schematic.

I have a 110 Pool Pump and I am trying to wire it into a Tork1103NC timer. From the pool pump I have a black, white and green wire that I need to wire into the timer. Can you tell me what position those...

0fde0d6.jpg

Here is Tork 1103 wired for single load.

1) The green pump wire and bare copper wire go to green ground screw
2) Pump black wire goes to pole 2, the NO (normally open) pole
3) Pump white wire goes to unmarked screw

4) Black from circuit breaker goes to pole L
The T1103 comes with a removable brass bar that connects pole L and pole 1
If that removable brass bar is not there, then add a jumper between pole L and pole 1 as shown in diagram above
5) White neutral from breaker box goes to unmarked pole (all whites connect to unmarked pole)

In your case, pole X is not used. Pole X is NC or normally closed > which means the power is ON continuously until timer turns on, and when timer turns ON, the NC pole turns OFF

Need a programing Manual for a Paragon electronic timer, used for bells.

Paragon 4000 is a mechanical dial-type timer
You probably have Paragon EC4000 digital timer:
Single channel, NO, NC contacts, SPST with 5 poles or SPDT with 8 poles.

To identify your timer: Paragon 4000-7000 series

If you have EC4000, the following pdf files are helpful

T104R timer clock has stopped working. I have to manually turn pump on and off.

If you can also turn the pump on and off manually by turning the dial, then the timer motor is bad.
