Upgrade An Outdated Simplex Clock System

Are you maintaining a Simplex synchronized time system? You might as well make some enhancements along the way. Take advantage of over 40 years experience in manufacturing and servicing many different types of clocks. Get straightforward advice from one of our team members with no obligation.

Replacing Your Clock

In recent years, mechanical movements used to repair or replace traditional Simplex clocks have become obsolete. We still offer some clocks with mechanical movements, such as impulse clocks, but in most cases we recommend upgrading to current clock technology. Simplex built several different types of clocks. To find out which kind you have, look for the original model number on the back of the clock. It’s typically eight digits separated by a dash. For most Simplex clocks, the first four digits just determines the case material; plastic (6310) or steel (2310).

Compatibility

For eight-digit models, the two digits after the dash are most important when finding your replacement clock because they denote the movement type:

  • 9000 Series: Impulse
  • 9100 Series: Electronic Frequency
  • 9200 Series: 3-Wire Synchronous
  • 9300 Series: Stand-Alone Electric
  • 9400 Series: Stand-Alone Battery

The third digit after the dash describes the size, shape and mounting. The remaining digit(s) will vary by system type.

Find A Replacement

In older models, your clock may only have four numbers. Once you’ve identified your clock model, try our Replacement Clock Finder or call 800.328.8996 for model number assistance.

9100 Series: Electronic Frequency clocks can no longer be replaced by a direct comparison. If you aren’t looking to change your system, WI-FI CLOCKS have become a  flexible alternative that can sit alongside your other synchronous clocks and keep accurate time.

9300 or –9400 Series: Stand-Alone Battery or Electric clocks are non-synchronous. See our STAND ALONE WALL CLOCKS page for a range of clocks that can be manually set, radio-controlled and/or set with an automatic daylight saving time feature.


AllSync Plus Wired Clocks

The 3-wire movement (9200 Series) is the most common type used with Simplex synchronous clocks and is compatible with ALLSYNC PLUS technology. AllSync Plus clocks are available in 120VAC and 24VAC, so be sure to select the correct voltage for your replacement clock.

Select the correct type.

Impulse clocks come in 2- and 3-wire models and with hourly only or hourly and 12-hour correction.

Look for the two-letter code in the model number when selecting a replacement clock for your Simplex system:

[FF] 2-wire, hourly correction

[FG] 2-wire, hourly and 12-hour correction

[JF] 3-wire, hourly correction

[JG] 3-wire, hourly and 12-hour correction



You may just need a replacement clock or some repair kits to keep your wired system running today. But, there is another way.

From maintaining to upgrading, we can help you through each consideration.
