This timer was sturdy and worked great. I would note, however, that the wires attach on the sides making it difficult to fit into small cutouts. Also, the knob was a bit smaller than I would have liked. I still recommend it over others I have bought though. Review: Great Customer Service - First switch would intermittently work. Quick return and even quicker replacement and it works perfect! Thank you. ## Features - Automatic Shutoff: Spring-wound twist timers are perfect for automatically turning off a variety of equipment such as ventilation fans, lighting, air compressors, HVAC, motors or pumps - Variable Time Setting: Simply twist the timer’s knob to set an auto-off countdown between 1 and 30 minutes to match your power needs - Easy In-Box Mounting: Housing fits inside a standard electrical box for in-wall mounting, with a professional metal faceplate and a simple setup that requires no adjustments - Consistent and Durable: This reliable twist timer can handle 20 amp resistive loads or 2 hp motor loads at 125VAC and keeps working for years - UL Listed for Quality Assurance: The C530M time switch delivers dependable performance and is ideally suited for use indoors controlling lighting or appliances ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00435F61Q | | Best Sellers Rank | #151,885 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #129 in Wall Timer Switches | | Brand | NSI | | Brand Name | NSI | | Color | Metal Brushed Aluminum | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 237 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00786261155030 | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 30"D x 8"W x 6"H | | Item Type Name | Timer | | Item Weight | 4.54 g | | Manufacturer | NSI | | Manufacturer Part Number | C530M | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | No warranty. | | Material | Metal | | Material Type | Metal | | Model Number | C530M | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of settings | 30 | | Product Dimensions | 30"D x 8"W x 6"H | | UPC | 786261155030 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Product Details - **Color:** Metal Brushed Aluminum - **Brand:** NSI - **Material:** Aluminum - **Product Dimensions:** 3"D x 5"W x 2"H - **Item Weight:** 0.01 Pounds ## Images ![TORK C530M Spring-Wound In-Wall Twist Timer with Commercial Style Metal Plate and 30-Minute Length for Automatic Shutoff of Motors or Lights, #12AWG - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61BnSe5M90L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: I have a 220 volts (50 hz/50 cycles) single phase connection for 2 hp motor. will this work for it? thanks.** A: As seen in the picture in the listing of the back of the timer, it is good for 2 hp at 250 VAC 50/60 HZ. **Q: Can this timer be manually turned off or does the time have to run out once it is set?** A: Yes, you simply turn the knob back to 0. As with other timers like this, It is harder to turn back than when winding it up. There is a clutch inside for this purpose. **Q: I see it has 3 terminals (2 on top 1 on bottom) which do I use for the 2 wires that were used in the old switch.** A: there is instruction in the box you use the 2 side holes **Q: Can this be used for lights that are wired on a 3-way switch?** A: I don’t believe it can. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great timer and solidly built! *by M***S on December 23, 2023* I was replacing an old timer and anted a similar look. This timer was sturdy and worked great. I would note, however, that the wires attach on the sides making it difficult to fit into small cutouts. Also, the knob was a bit smaller than I would have liked. I still recommend it over others I have bought though. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Customer Service *by R***4 on September 30, 2024* First switch would intermittently work. Quick return and even quicker replacement and it works perfect! Thank you. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sturdier than Intermatic *by K***M on September 9, 2025* We moved to this spring-bound timer switch after the Intermatic version we bought for decades replaced the steel cover plate with a plastic cover plate. The quality is better, the nut that holds the steel plate to the box is sturdier, and unlike the Intermatic switch, this one comes with a grounding wire. ## Frequently Bought Together - NSI TORK C530M Spring-Wound In-Wall Twist Timer with Commercial Style Metal Plate and 30-Minute Length for Automatic Shutoff of Motors or Lights, #12AWG - NSI TORK C515M Spring-Wound In-Wall Twist Timer with Commercial Style Metal Plate and 15-Minute Length for Automatic Shutoff of Motors or Lights, #12AWG, Metal-brushed Aluminum - NSI TORK C560M Spring-Wound In-Wall Twist Timer with Commercial Style Metal Plate and 60-Minute Length for Automatic Shutoff of Motors or Lights --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.pa/products/65098413-tork-c530m-spring-wound-in-wall-twist-timer-with-commercial](https://www.desertcart.com.pa/products/65098413-tork-c530m-spring-wound-in-wall-twist-timer-with-commercial) --- *Product available on Desertcart Panama* *Store origin: PA* *Last updated: 2026-10-18*
