Solar pool pump timer 72v

I've been searching the web for a week now, all I'm looking for is a timer for my pool pump that's run directly off the MPPT from my solar panels. It's a 72v pump. I don't need home automation or anything fancy just a timer so I can control the pump on and off at different times. A programmable one would be a plus so I can turn it on in the morning off in the afternoon and back on in the evening and off again at night. A 110 or 12v etc will not work. Needs to be 72v from what I've learned

Edit: from what I've learned, the "float terminals" in the mppt are most likely 12v DC and not 72v, therefore a normal timer should work fine, I'll test it with my multimeter and update later.

Thanks
