Load Max rated load on the timer is 10 amp. Using a relay will preserve life of timer since motor start-up pulls surge of amps through terminals 8-7 on the one-shot timer. How it works: Set twin timer to one shot mode ... instructions shown a few sections lower on page. Connect 120 or 240 volt AC power to terminals 8-7. Connect other wires as shown. Push doorbell button, or momentary switch, or use a spring-wound timer ... this will start the inkbird delay timer timer (do not energize the doorbell wires on start switch circuit with any voltage). Timer turns ON and begins countdown. Timer terminals 7 and 8 turn ON. This causes contactor coil to energize. Circuit to recirculation pump is ON. When countdown expires, terminals 7 and 8 are OFF, contactor coil is de-energized, pump turns OFF. Twin timer can be set to one-shot mode, and with 120-240V, and operate .9 seconds to 99 hours. So the pump can run any length of time: 1 hour or 21 minites etc. Do not connect power to terminals 1-5.

Always use
contactor (or relay) to energize heavy amp load Why? So high amperage (and heat) does not flow through the timer ... instead the only amperage flowing through the relay located at terminals 8-7 will be to energize the 27 watt coil on contactor. Using a contactor will extend life of timer, and protect overall integrity of circuit. Suggest using a line fuse for power going to 9, and then jumper a wire from 9 to 8. This will ensure timer cannot be exposed to high amperage Buy: Contactor with 120Volt coil |

Momentary contact switch Terminals 3-4 on the twin timer are for Reset. When terminals 3 and 4 are momentarily touched together using a momentary switch or a push button, it starts the recirculation pump. When the programmed time expires, the recirculation pump turns off, and the timer waits until the Reset is activated again. Do not apply power to terminals 3-4. For the reset to work, terminals 3 and 4 need to be joined or touched together and then disconnected from each other. If an ordinary on-off toggle switch is used instead of a momentary switch, the the toggle must be turned on and then off for the Reset to take place.

Choose Cycle (twin) timer or One
shot
timer mode Input voltage from 100-240 volt. Some models, 12-24 volt AC-DC input. Choose mode between One shot or Repeat-cycle. Timer has dry NO NC terminals, so you can connect any voltage to switch terminals. Set Repeat cycle or One shot Mode To set One Shot (also called: on delay, off delay, or countdown) - Apply power to timer. Press MD for 3 seconds. Press MD to choose settings: minute, second, hour. When t,nod appears, select the 4 dashes, then press and hold MD button for 3 seconds to exit Mode. To set times, the Lock mode must be OFF. Once you exit Mode, press RES button to set time A and then press MD to set Time B. If seconds are chosen for time period A, then time period B must also be seconds. One shot mode is either On delay or Off delay depending how timer is wired. After the time period expires, the load turns OFF or ON and remains ON or OFF until you reset by momentarily connecting and then disconnecting terminals 4 and 3 with a Normally open push button, or timer, home automation, etc... or reset timer by disconnecting and reconnecting power to timer. To set Repeat cycle (this is for a blinking application on-off-on- ... or a repeating either-or application - Apply power to timer. Press MD for 3 seconds. Press MD to chose settings: minute, second, hour. When t,nod appears, select the rectangle with dashes, then press and hold MD button for 3 seconds to exit Mode. To set times, the Lock mode must be OFF. Once you exit Mode, press RES button to set time A and then press MD to set Time B. If seconds are chosen for time period A, then time period B must also be seconds. For example a car alarm is a cycle or twin timer ... honk-honk-honk indefinitely until power is cut. Christmas displays, and blinking store lights etc use twin timer in repeat cycle mode. Timer starts when it receives power and stops when power is off. Then it restarts when power resumes. For example you can set the repeat cycle to turn on for 10 minutes and off for 99 minutes. Mode A would be 10 minutes, Mode B would be 99 minutes. Or ... turn on for 10 minutes and then turn on another circuit for 99 minutes. |
Panel mount digital repeat cycle twin timer or one shotPV shows the time left in the count up for Mode B... so there is .78 seconds left before it switches to Mode ASV shows 2.99 ... which is the set time I choose for Mode B When 2.99 seconds ends, Mode A set time will display. Image shows the Inkbird twin timer. Use this timer to control red nose on Rudolph reindeer. Set Mode A to 30 seconds and Mode B for 2 seconds. Rudolph's nose will blink on and off as long as power is applied to red nose and timer.

DH48S twin timer used as one-shot It is possible to use this timer for one-shot application IF... Let's say you want a one-shot timer that turns ON a light while a machine is operating, and then light remains ON for 55 minutes afterwards before turning OFF. You select Minutes (M) for time A, and set time for 55. Then select Hours (H) for time B, and set for 99 hours. Then as long as the machine-and-light circuit turned ON again before the 99 Hours expires, the timer will function as a one-shot. Another example: You want outdoor light to turn ON normally at dusk using a dusk-dawn photoeye, but then light turns OFF 4 hours later. Select Hours (H) for time A, and set time for 4. Then select Hours (H) for time B, and set for 99 hours. Since the outdoor light turns ON again before the 99 hour expires, the DH48S will function as one-shot timer.
