Thank you but I believe that is the old Paraplate since the new ones don't have a jumper.

WHOOPS!! That is the older timer. Try this, Yellow wire to terminal #1, one Red/Green & Black to terminal #2, 3 or #6, one Red/Green to terminal #5

Still not the correct timer. The Blue T24400 has terminals 1-4 Line, neutral, Neutral, LOad. Then it has and Aux + & - and Coin Switch + & -

The Paraplate timer is 24 or 110 volts.
coin acceptor: yellow, black (tb1)
coin acceptor: red/green (tb2 coin switch)

Sorry, do not undrstand the "tb" designation.

I forgot "tb" was not on the timer.... It is used in the doc.

TB1 is the power side
TB2 is the coin counter side

Hello , so im hooking up my paraplate T24400 timer to a sensortron coin acc also and i think i understand , but to confirm , if i understand it ,

I will be putting the small yellow and Black wires from the coin acc with the larger 110 volt wires that run the vacuum on the line and neutral

wires . seems funny to mix but is that correct. ? Dave from Michigan.

No. You need a 24V transformer to power the coin acceptor. You will use only the two red/green wires to the coin signal inputs.

Dave, you’re doing it all wrong. You want to install a 24 volt transformer and run 24 volts to both your Timer and coin acceptor. Install a 24 volt Mercury relay https://www.kleen-ritecorp.com/p-50...tive-or-lighting-loads-24v-35-amp-1-pole.aspx or a 24 volt motor contactor https://www.kleen-ritecorp.com/p-31...c-electric-motor-contactor-24-vac-2-pole.aspx I prefer the Mercury relay. By using one of these relays your taking the load off of the Timer, should one of the vac motors go bad this will lessen the chances of ruining the Timer. Once you get the relay installed all you have to do is run 24 volts to the timer and 24 volts to the relay from the timed load on the Timer.

wow crazy , why did buy this silly paraplate timer , it says it can work with 110 or 24 volts but i guess i have it all wrong , i will have to buy
another timer and put this nice new blue paraplate on a shelf to sit and do nothing.

You can still use the Paraplate timer, just use it on 24 volt. I've been using the Parker Grace timer for years and have never replaced one yet. https://www.kleen-ritecorp.com/p-34389-parker-engineering-01-0238-0000-grace-timer-ii.aspx

can you guys tell me exactly how to wire a sensortron to this timer , i dont know a brand or anything but i added the pic. Im trying to make a vacuum run i just put up. Do i jump a wire from 2 to 3 then add a wire from the coin acc ? I need to know exactly how. lol thx Dave

Do you have a 24 volt transformer and a mercury relay?

 

[Daveee123]

No im not willing to do all that , can i use the timer in the pic i put up ?

You need a 24 volt transformer to power the sensortron.

 

[MEP001]

You can use thay 40-year-old timer with a Sensortron by powering the Sensortron with a transformer and using the two red/green wires to the coin switch, exactly as I described above. You can use a mercury relay, but you don't have to. That timer will not accumulate coins above its start time. If you have the Paraplate that you asked about, you'd be better off using that.

Let us know when you burn something up by trying to cobble together this crap that you know nothing about and refuse to take good advice on.

 

[Randy]

I think in your case you'd be better off using a mechanical coin acceptor, that way you wouldn't a transformer.

 

[Daveee123]

ok i have this transformer and it works , i have two , one is nicer but bigger , i think ill use that one.. i hope it fits in this vac.
do you have a link for the mercury relay...and how does it get wired into this deal.. Dave
