Description
The OP-IHTGPT is a reliable, 24-hour timer designed for immersion heaters and general-purpose applications. Engineered for surface mounting, this timer offers flexible scheduling with 15-minute tappet intervals, allowing precise control over daily heating cycles. With a robust 16A resistive and 8A inductive load capacity, it’s ideal for handling the demands of immersion heaters and other high-load appliances. It features captive tappets for secure programming and offers Timed, OFF, and Constant operation modes.
Adding time control to an immersion heater provides several key benefits: by programming the heater to operate only during needed hours, users can reduce energy waste and lower electricity costs. This control is especially valuable in homes with off-peak electricity tariffs, allowing heating to be scheduled for low-cost hours. Additionally, controlled heating reduces wear on the heater, contributing to a longer appliance lifespan.
Key Features:
- 24-Hour Timer: Customisable with 15-minute intervals
- Flexible Load Support: 16A resistive, 8A inductive
- Operating Modes: Timed, OFF, and Constant selection
- Volt-Free SPDT Contacts: Offers versatile switching options (remove link as needed)
- Installation: Surface mounting with earth park terminal and cable clamps
Note: Not suitable for discharge or LED lighting without a contactor.
The OP-IHTGPT provides efficient time-based control, ideal for optimising immersion heater operation, reducing energy costs, and extending appliance life.
