Percentage Cycle Timer for motor control
The Intermatic CT2000 is a 20 Amp percentage cycle timer designed to switch electrical loads in recurring on and off intervals. It suits industrial machinery, agricultural equipment and commercial automation where a repetitive duty cycle is required. The unit is supplied new and has been listed by the manufacturer since 2015.
Fits a 20 Amp control circuit
Install the contactor in a compatible enclosure with wiring rated for the 20 Amp load and a suitable overcurrent device. The timer replaces hand operated switches by automating the on and off periods, freeing operators for other tasks while maintaining consistent cycle timing across the system.
Upgrades from fixed interval or manual timers
The percentage cycle design replaces simpler fixed interval timers or manual contactors when the application demands adjustable on and off ratios within each cycle. The jump is worth it for processes that need variable duty cycles rather than a single preset pattern.

Questions about this item
What is the maximum continuous current the CT2000 contactor can handle?
The contactor is rated for 20 amps maximum continuous current.
How much heat does the timer generate when running all day?
The percentage-cycle design limits coil energisation time, reducing steady-state heat compared with a continuously held contactor.
What supply voltage must already be present for the CT2000 to operate?
The unit needs a compatible AC control voltage — check the coil rating on the nameplate before installation.
