4000 series Paragon timer uses X2772 tripper
To check your model:

Midnight electric sells X2772 tripper

That being said,
According to e-mail I got from Paragon last month, Paragon is no longer making timers or timer parts. Except for defrost timers. 4000 series is not a defrost timer.
This explains why some sellers of these trippers are asking $50 or more for $3 pair of trippers.
To change your timer to Intermatic.
Refer to Intermatic cross reference:

Paragon is no longer making timers and parts, except defrost timers.
I've seen X2772 trippers selling for $50-60
Can I suggest a replacement water heater timer:

Look at label on side of tank to see if heater is 120V or 240V

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.

Paragon no longer makes timers or parts, except defrost timers.
Typically, defrost timers are not used for pools.
Open following link to possibly identify timer and tripper part number.

If you want a new timer for pools, Intermatic makes the T101 120Volt and T104 240Volt:

If you want T100 series timer with fireman's switch that turns off heater 10 minutes before turning off pump:

If you have energy-saving 2-speed pool pump, and thermostat and pool light, then buy P1353 digital timer with enclosure. Enclosure and timer sold together as P1353ME.

P1353 is not easy to wire or program for novice, so you can add a comment or repost question on fixya and I will catch it.
