Brand: Intermatic | Manufacturer Part Number: PX600 | Big Frog Supply SKU: PX600
Product Overview
The Intermatic PX600 is a 600-watt safety transformer for larger compatible pool, spa, underwater, fountain, and landscape-lighting systems. It accepts 120 VAC, 60 Hz input power and provides selectable 12, 13, or 14 VAC secondary connections. Its 600-watt capacity supports a greater combined fixture load than the PX100 and PX300 models, while the multiple output taps allow a qualified installer to account for fixture requirements and permitted voltage drop.
A grounded shield separates the primary and secondary windings, and built-in thermal circuit protection temporarily disconnects power if an overload occurs. The larger beige Type 3R steel enclosure supports properly installed indoor or outdoor applications and provides mounting brackets plus multiple combination knockouts for conduit routing. This model is the transformer only; a timer, pool-light junction box, fixtures, and optional ET-NF noise filter are not included.

Pool and spa lighting systems should be installed by a qualified professional. The total connected load must remain within 600 watts.
Frequently Asked Questions
What output voltages does PX600 provide?
It provides selectable 12, 13, and 14 VAC secondary connections.
How does it differ from PX300?
PX600 supports up to 600 watts and uses a larger enclosure; PX300 supports 300 watts.
Is a lighting timer included?
No. This listing is for the safety transformer and enclosure only.
Why Buy This Product from Big Frog Supply?
The PX600 is intended for larger lighting systems that exceed the capacity of Intermatic’s 100- and 300-watt models. Big Frog Supply clearly identifies its 600-watt limit, selectable outputs, larger enclosure, conduit provisions, and separately sold accessories before purchase.
