Are you maintaining a Lathem 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.
In recent years, mechanical movements used to repair or replace traditional Lathem 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. Lathem built a few different types of clocks. To find out which kind you have, look for the original model number on the back of the clock. If the clock is synchronous wired (SS prefix), identify the voltage. If the clock is minute impulse (ISC prefix), specify whether 2- or 3-wire.
Lathem brand analog clocks are described by a prefix followed by a 6- or 7-digit model number.
The 3-wire movement (SS Series) is the most common type used with Lathem 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.
AllSync Plus clocks are available in many more styles than their counterparts. When replacing Lathem SS Series clocks, the choice of case material and style is up to you!
Even just to repair a clock, the guts aren’t cheap and sometimes it would take me an hour to fix it. Now, maintenance has gone down to about nothing.
Perfect for the DIY expert, this AllSync Plus kit has everything you need to replace the mechanical movement on your Lathem brand clock! Watch our easy-to-follow video to walk you through each step, or download the instructions to get your old Lathem clocks ticking again!
HOURLY CORRECTION | 12-HOUR CORRECTION |
7-9 seconds starting at the 57th minute and 54th second | 13-18 seconds starting at 5:57:54 (am and pm) |
24-28.5 seconds starting at the 0 minute and 0 second | 24-32 minutes starting at 6:00:00 (am and pm) |
54-56 seconds starting at the 58th minute and 5th second | 10 pulses of 94-96 seconds starting at 5:05:00 (am and pm) repeating every 2 minutes |
24-26 seconds starting at 0 minute and 0 second | 25 pulses of 24-26 seconds starting at 6:00:00 (am and pm) repeating every 60 seconds |
63-67 seconds starting at the 58th minute and 0 second | 14 pulses of 63-67 seconds starting at 5:06:00 (am and pm) repeating every 2 minutes |
54-56 seconds starting at the 58th minute and 5th second | 12 pulses of 63-67 seconds starting at 5:05:00 (am and pm) repeating every 90 seconds |
Impulse clocks are distinguishable by not operating a sweep hand. Maintain your existing clock system with direct replacements for Lathem ISC Series impulse clocks.
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
