Spring-Wound Timer with 30-Minute Hold
The Intermatic FD30MHW is a spring-wound timer that provides a 30-minute hold feature for electrical loads. It is rated at 1 hp at 120V and 2 hp at 240V with a single-gang configuration. The device carries cCSAus and RU standards for safety compliance. It automatically limits operating time for energy-consuming equipment.
Check Voltage and Load Requirements
Verify that your supply voltage matches either the 120V or 240V rating before installation. Confirm the connected motor or load does not exceed the 1 hp or 2 hp rating for the respective voltage. Ensure a single-gang mounting box is available for the unit. The timer is restricted from sale in certain states so check local regulations.
Suits Simple Time-Limited Control
This timer suits users needing a mechanical, spring-driven device to automatically cut power after a set period up to 30 minutes. It fits applications where a hold feature is required for continuous operation within that window. Buyers who need programmable digital scheduling or longer timing ranges should look at other solutions. Those requiring multi-gang or smart-home integration will need a different product.

Questions about this item
What comes with the FD30MHW and what must be purchased separately?
The spring-wound timer is supplied as a single unit with a hold feature; wiring, mounting hardware and any enclosure are not included and must be sourced separately.
How do I choose between the 120 V and 240 V ratings on this timer?
The FD30MHW is rated for 1 hp at 120 V and 2 hp at 240 V; select the voltage that matches your circuit and ensure the motor load does not exceed the corresponding horsepower rating.
What does the 30-minute setting actually do when the timer is installed?
The timer mechanically counts down up to 30 minutes and then opens the circuit, while the hold feature lets the contacts stay closed indefinitely when the dial is turned to the hold position.
