Defrost timer for 120V AC systems
The Paragon A1401-00 defrost control timer operates on 120V AC and switches up to 15 A through an SPDT mechanical contact. It is designed for refrigeration equipment that requires a time-based defrost cycle. The unit provides up to four on/off cycles each day.
381-minute defrost duration and daily cycle limit
Each defrost period runs for a maximum of 381 minutes, giving ample time for ice melt in typical commercial units. The timer caps operation at four cycles per day, so installations needing more frequent defrosts will exceed its programmed limit.
Mechanical contact and fixed timing constraints
The SPDT mechanical contact handles the 15 A load directly without additional relays. Timing is initiated and terminated by the internal clock only; there is no external sensor input or adaptive control. Systems requiring demand-based defrost or voltage other than 120V AC cannot use this timer.

Questions about this item
Will the 120V AC 15A SPDT contacts switch my existing compressor and defrost heater without a contactor?
The timer carries 15 A at 120 V AC through its SPDT mechanical contacts, so loads within that rating can be switched directly without an extra contactor.
How do I verify the 381-minute defrost cycle is running correctly after wiring?
Observe the timer through four daily on/off cycles; the defrost period should last 381 minutes each time, matching the termination-type initiation.
Does the box include mounting hardware or a wiring diagram, or must I source them separately?
The timer ships as a standalone unit; mounting brackets and a wiring diagram are not included and must be obtained separately.
