Spring-Wound Timer for Motor Circuits
The Intermatic FD430M is a spring-wound timer designed for single-gang electrical boxes. It provides a 0 to 30 minute timing range with a DPST contact form suitable for controlling motor loads up to 1 hp at 120 VAC or 2 hp at 240 VAC. The ivory faceplate and plastic knob suit standard residential and light-commercial installations.
Replaces Continuous-Run or Manual Switches
This timer upgrades installations where equipment currently runs continuously or relies on manual switching. The jump is worth it when automatic shut-off after a set period reduces energy waste or prevents equipment overheating. It does not serve circuits that require a hold feature for indefinite operation.
Handles Up to 20 Amps at 125 VAC
The timer comfortably handles resistive loads up to 20 A at 125 VAC and 10 A at 250 VAC or 277 VAC. Motor loads are rated at 1 hp at 120 VAC and 2 hp at 240 VAC. It runs out for applications needing more than 30 minutes of timing, a hold function, or contact ratings beyond the stated amperage and horsepower limits.

Questions about this item
What wall-box size does the single-gang FD430M timer require?
It fits a standard single-gang electrical box; the unit occupies one gang space.
Which wiring step is most often missed when installing the DPST contacts?
Connect both poles — two hot leads and two load leads — so each circuit is fully switched.
When should the spring-wound mechanism be replaced?
Replace the timer if the knob no longer holds the set time or the contacts fail to switch at 20 A / 125 V or 10 A / 250 V.
