All Your Questions

Here are some frequently asked questions about TOSUNlux Mechanical Timers：

What are the main applications of mechanical timers?

24 hour mechanical timer switches can switch motors, lights, heaters, pumps and more on/off based on timed intervals ranging from seconds to days. Common applications include controlling building lighting, irrigation systems, HVAC equipment, industrial ovens, security lights, and many more. Their versatility makes them one of the most widely used types of timer.

What timer options are available for outdoor use?

For outdoor environments, we recommend the TOSUNlux Weatherproof Timer Enclosure alongside any of our mechanical timers. This IP65-rated enclosure shields outdoor mechanical timer from dust, moisture, and impacts, enabling reliable automation of exterior lighting, pumps, seasonal displays, and other outdoor electrical loads.

What makes TOSUNlux mechanical timers so durable?

TOSUNlux mechanical timers utilize precision pinwheels, heavy-duty switches, and shock-resistant housing materials chosen for exceptional endurance in punishing conditions. Rigorous life-cycle testing through 100,000+ cycles ensures each timer will maintain accuracy over decades of hot/cold temperature shifts, vibrations, dirt, and more.

How do I know which mechanical timer to select?

Our engineers will recommend the right TOSUNlux mechanical timer once we understand your timing durations, load details, environmental conditions, and any special requirements. We offer over 500 timing products with unique features across a wide control range – from fractions of seconds up to weekly intervals. This flexibility lets us match virtually any application.

How To Select the Right Mechanical Timer for Your Application

Mechanical timers provide reliable, affordable automation for all types of electrical loads. But with varied control durations and features between models, how do you pick the right timer? By understanding your key requirements:

Desired Timing Duration

Mechanical timers can switch loads from fractions of seconds up to weekly intervals. First, determine your ideal timing duration. Common examples:

Outdoor lighting: Dusk-to-dawn (10-14 hours)
Irrigation systems: Up to 4 times per day (12-24 hours)
HVAC cycles: Occupied vs unoccupied (15-30 minutes)
Machine cycles: Seconds to minutes (0-60 minutes)

Load Type & Electrical Rating

Next, identify your load type (lights, motor, heater, etc.) and its amp/voltage rating to pick a timer rated for that electrical load. Safety margins are key – a timer must handle peak surge currents.

Environment & Enclosure

For outdoor/wet applications, pick timers are rated for wide operating temperatures with moisture-resistant enclosures or external protective housings. Indoor timers just need to match expected ambient conditions.

Special Functionality

Finally, determine if you need any special functions. For example, exterior lighting timers should have daylight savings adjustments and random “security” modes. Timers switching motors benefit from inrush surge protection and maximum run timers.

With key criteria defined, a TOSUNlux mechanical timer expert can recommend the optimal model and customization options to fulfill your automation needs. This ensures reliable, trouble-free timing over years of service.
