Need trippers for older unknown model number amf paragon pool timer. timer is 15 - 20 years old

Copy following link to identify timer:
http://waterheatertimer.org/Paragon-timers-and-manuals.html#4000

Paragon 4000 series uses X2772 tripper
Paragon is no longer making timers except for defrost times.
There is a new line of timers coming from China that looks identical to Paragon 4000, and uses same tripper. As a result this timer design and trippers could be around for years to come.

Replacement timer is Intermatic T104R 240Volt indoor outdoor enclosure, with replacement parts widely available

Thank you for including model number of timer.
Paragon P100 series uses X9242 trippers
http://waterheatertimer.org/Paragon-timers-and-manuals.html

Midnight electric appears to sell X9242 tripper

1) If timer dial is not rotating, then the clock motor has gone bad.
New paragon clock motors are not sold anywhere I know about.
http://waterheatertimer.org/Paragon-timers-and-manuals.html#4000

2) If dial rotates on time, but trippers don't work, then buy new X2772 trippers.

3) Buy new 120Volt 4003-00 timer at Southside for $86:

4) BuildingHVAC sells 4003-00 timer for $56.00

Timer brand and model number are not shown.
Brand and model appear on inside of timer door.

Moving stationary pointer will not affect on-off operation of timer. The pointer is just reference for setting current time.
Worn trippers can cause problem.
Trippers are softer metal and designed to wear down so timer mechanism lasts for decades.

Intermatic pool timers use set of 156T1978A trippers.

1) You posted under paragon 7008-00 timer.
It is not necessary to know voltage of motor to order tripper

2) Model number of timer is usually located on inside door panel

3) Paragon is no longer making timers or parts.
Open following link to identify timer for sure:

4) Following link from Paragon gives links for folks who might still sell parts:
Expect some suppliers to overcharge for parts.
I've seen paragon trippers selling for $60.

5) It might be easier to buy another time clock.
Refer to Intermatic Competitive cross reference chart.
http://www.intermatic.com/customer%20service/competitive%20cross%20reference.aspx
For example replacement for 7008-20 is Intermatic T7802B which is a 7-day, 40 amp 240V timer.

6) You are working for your church, probably as a volunteer.
I also volunteer several places in my community.
I have extensive files on timers and can help you choose and install a new timer if I know the model number.
Just add a comment to this post and I will answer if needed.

Also take advantage of fixya phone service.
For a price, expert speaks with you over phone while you work on timer or any do-it-yourself project.
Fixya is always less expensive than a service call.

If I understand correctly, you need tripper pins for a Paragon timer
http://www.paragontimecontrols.com/parts_accessories.htm
At page bottom is a chart with model number and the tripper required
http://waterheatertimer.org/Paragon-timers-and-manuals.html

The two links above help you identify your timer model and identify the tripper.
After identifying tripper number, you have to do a google search for that tripper number

So, if you need more help, please answer back and we'll find the right timer and pin

If you have Intermatic timer, then you can buy pins at Grainger

Paragon 7008-00 timer parts:
http://www.paragontimecontrols.com/parts_accessories.htm
http://www10.shopping.com/-paragon+timer+trippers

Paragon mechanical 7008-00 has 120V clock motor
-8 poles control 1-4 separate 120V loads, with 2 NO Normally Open and 2 NC Normally Closed circuits with max 690 Watts per pole.

Test 120V clock motor:
-Clock motor connects to two far right terminals. Black hot to pole M, White neutral to pole T.
-You should be able to hear clock motor running by putting ear against outside case.
-Clock motor will rotate wheel, if wheel is not rotating, then motor is not running.

To set paragon timer: Pull large round dial straight out towards you, then rotate dial until correct time is lined up with stationary 'pointer' on front of dial

There should be 2 trippers for each day, the trippers slide on the outside of the dial and would point to the time of day you want your lights on and off. The silver trippers may be gone on that aged time clock, but are easily obtainable.
