Is there a replacement timer that will run more than 2 times and hour for the DF520? I want to try running it more often with shorter on times to keep it lit.

Thanks,

Dave

There are honeywell timers that run every fifteen minutes. I don't remember the number right off hand but similar to the S400.

I use an NCC repeat cycle timer from Allied electronics. Do a search. It is really adjustable from 0-60minutes off and 0-60minutes on. I go off for 45-50minutes and on for 2mins. 45 seconds. It runs about 65-75 dollars. :)

Stokerscott,

There are many NCC timers. Do you have a model number?

Thanks,

Dave

I think he was referring to: NCC - TMM-0999M-461 - Allied Electronics.

It mounts on an 11 point relay block or on a din rail if you a few other relays to hook up.
I don't think Scott was referring to an self contained relay in a bigger enclosure.
He is the Controls Specialist, and he can't be too far away.....unless he's out in the barn
'tucking in the sheep' for the evening. Earth to Stroker Stoker!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :oops: :shock:

He could be down at the garage working on the new Nascar A-Dust Powered, Charmin Pampered, Quicker-Picker Upper, Super Chevy for next season. It is also possible he is on the horn with NASA developing the A-dust Outer Space Enabled Well Driller to get that first glass of water from the moon. I know Poland Springs is scouting Scott right now.
They will market the 'Moon Juice', FIRST!

Intermatic makes an 8800 series(8835 to 8865) that repeat cycle 5 minutes each tripper 2 1/2 seconds to a 4 hour with each tripper 2 1/2 minutes. Keep adding trippers till you have what time you need. They are a mechanical dial clock face that rotates to contact a mechanical switch. I use 2 , a 4 hour that powers a 5 minute. They show up on ebay for roughly $40 used, but be carefull, I was taken on one with a bad motor :mad: ( grainger sells the motors for $18 )

I have been using the Intermatic 8800 series also for the last 20 years. No failures yet, but I do keep a couple spares just in case.

I use the Wilbert timer. It can be adjusted to for every 30 minutes or 60 minutes.

The wilberts are great, but hard to get your hands on. I agree, they are bulletproof. I have two, and can't get my grubby mitts on any more. :mad: :mad:

Nope, not that one. That one is a 12vdc relay. Try the part number CKK-01800-461 This one only runs for 30 minutes. The real good one is part number CKK-03600-461, it runs for 60 minutes. Yes, 11 pin base, 70 bucks, 10million cycles ;)

Does anyone have wiring diagram for the Intermatic 8835 for use with the DF-520? Thanks for all the replies!

I think it's on the internet, under their site. The wire goes to ZR of your aquastat, same as the Wilburt.
