Timer Box 8 Outlet Plastic Splash proof - Heavy Duty Timer and 8 Outlets
Using a Timer Box is a reliable way of switching on & off HID grow lights in your grow room or grow tent
- Professional 24 hour timer settable in 15 minute increments
- Two power input supply leads.
- 8 outlet power sockets with switches
- Heavy duty internal contactor
- Sturdy and robust ABS splash proof housing
The plastic splash proof Timer box 8 has two power input supply leads.
When requiring only 1,2,3 or 4 outlets, plug ‘Input 1’ into a mains power wall power point and this will power the timer and power the 4 sockets on the left side (via the timer). If 5,6,7 or 8 outlets are required then simply plug ‘Input 2’ into another mains power wall power point, then outlets 5,6,7 & 8 will also be controlled by the timer. This will help with circuit breaker tripping due to having too many lights on one standard power circuit.
Each side of the Timer Box 8 has a maximum of 15 amps rating limit, ie: 4 amps per socket, 30amps in total can be handled.
Please note “Input 1” must be plugged into the wall power point for the timer to operate and charge the battery for the timer battery backup which keeps the time clock correct during power outages
When using HPS or Metal Halide grow lights in your grow tent or grow room, it is important to have a reliable time switch to turn your lights on and off at the correct times. Standard household timers can be problematic with the high start up loads created with HPS or Metal Halide HID grow lights which may cause the timer to fail. The Timer box range is a reliable way of switching high load items. The Timer box uses a heavy duty industrial contactor to ensure 100% reliable and carefree switching cycles of your lighting system. The Timer box has a an easy to set manual 15-minute increment 24 hour time switch that switches the power load through the contactor and not the time switch ensuring longer timer life and a successful light cycle start up.
