Paragon G1400-00 Defrost Timer
The Paragon G1400-00 is a mechanical defrost control timer designed for 120V AC electrical systems. It suits technicians maintaining refrigeration or HVAC equipment that requires scheduled defrost cycles. The unit provides a fixed 25-minute defrost duration with a maximum of six on/off cycles per day. It is not intended for applications needing adjustable timing or voltage ratings beyond 120V AC.
SPDT Contact and 15 Amp Rating
The timer uses a single-pole double-throw mechanical contact arrangement rated at 15 amps. This configuration allows switching between two separate circuits during the defrost sequence. The contact type supports direct control of heating elements or compressor loads within the current limit. No additional software or accessories are included with the timer itself.
Time-Based Termination and Enclosure
Termination is governed by the internal time mechanism rather than temperature or pressure sensors. The enclosure material is listed as not applicable, indicating an open-frame or panel-mount design for integration into existing control panels. Installers must provide suitable housing and wiring protection to meet local electrical codes. The timer mounts directly where a time-initiated defrost control is specified.

Questions about this item
Does the mechanical contact inside the Paragon G1400-00 timer eventually wear out and need replacement?
The mechanical contact is rated for up to six on/off cycles per day; long-term wear will depend on how many defrost cycles the system runs daily.
What stops the timer from running a defrost cycle longer than the set period?
The timer is fixed at 25 minutes of defrost time per cycle and initiates up to six cycles per day, so it cannot exceed that duration.
How much power does the timer draw when it is energised continuously?
It operates on 120V AC and switches loads up to 15 A; the timer’s own coil consumption is minimal compared with the connected load.
