CONTROL PANEL WITH TIME SWITCH FOR INDOOR/OUTDOOR USE

Suitable for Pool Equipment Control and for Direct Connection of Underwater Lights

ELECTRICAL RATINGS: See inside Enclosure Door

DANGER

Risk of drowning!

Do not permit unsupervised children to use pool or spa.

Close supervision of children required at all times.

WARNING

Risk of electric shock!

Test ground fault protection regularly. If it fails, do not use Pool or Spa. Contact qualified service professional for help.

Do not use this control as a power disconnect, it could turn ON unexpectedly.

Disconnect electricity at the main Panel before servicing this control or the equipment(s) connected to it.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Many of today's energy efficient pools and spas utilize the advantages of a single electrical panel, containing all the necessary controls for the safe, efficient and automatic operation of the pool/spa equipment. In addition, this Panel can also be used to control any outdoor equipment, sign or pump within its rated capacity.

The Transformers supplied in these panels are specifically designed to supply 12 volts to underwater pool/spa lights. A grounded shield between the primary and secondary winding assures safe operation and the built-in circuit protection will disconnect power to the transformer in case of overload. These transformers are suitable for direct connection to underwater Pool and Spa lights.

The all-weather enclosure may contain a heavy-duty, industrial grade Time Switch, with mounting provision for a second Intermatic switching device. Also, it has provisions to install a switch inside as well as a switch or GFCI receptacle on the outside. The Time Switch can also accommodate an optional heater control (fireman) switch.

The Control is designed to operate any pump, within its rated capacity. However, if protection to prevent dry start is required by the pump manufacturer, it must be provided in addition to this Control. Contact pump manufacturer if not sure and/or for more details.

CAUTION

Risk of injury or property damage!

Do not install or operate this equipment and other associated equipment without basic safety precautions.

Read and follow the safety instructions listed below and other basic safety precautions before installation or operation of this control and other associated equipment.

1. This control must be installed by a qualified person, according to the national and local electrical codes.
2. Install this control not less than 5 feet (3 meters in Canada) from inside edge of pool and 1 foot (30cm) above ground.
3. USE COPPER CONDUCTORS ONLY rated 75°C minimum.
4. Do not exceed maximum ratings of individual components, wiring devices and current carrying capacity of conductors.
5. For control grounding, bonding, installing and the wiring of underwater lights, refer to Article 680 of the National Electrical Code or Article 68 of the Canadian Electrical Code.
6. The control should not operate any equipment which would cause bodily injury or property damage should it be activated unexpectedly.

INSTALLATION

1. Remove the four #10 hex head screws from the back of the enclosure and attach mounting brackets to enclosure.
2. Select the proper location for the Control Panel and hang enclosure on a flat vertical surface or other support, using hardware suitable for the purpose.

3. Prepare the necessary conduit runs, terminate them at both ends and pull in the conductors as specified by the installation layout.

4. Refer to Figure 1 below; note that this enclosure contains one Time Switch. To wire the panel, follow the wiring diagram located inside the enclosure door. Make sure that connections to time switch ter (25 lb.-in. minimum) and insul pressure plate - see illustration.

1. If required by the heater manufacturer, install fireman switch kit 156T4042A (not furnished) on Time Switch Plate and make the fireman switch connections. Use at least #18 AWG wiring with insulation rated 300 Volt or higher. Place heater ON/OFF switch on heater to ON (see Figure 2 on page 3). Some heaters may require a special connecting harness, contact heater manufacturer for details.

2. To install an additional wiring device inside the enclosure, first remove rectangular knock-out(s) in dead front. Next, remove hex head screws in back of enclosure and install stand-offs* in place of screws. Attach wiring device to stand-offs.

*Stand-offs are not furnished. Order 21T156A for a set of four (4) stand-offs and mounting hardware.

1. If external bonding is required, install a bonding lug at bottom of enclosure and bond installation according to code requirements.

2. Testing of the installation is optional and recommended only if pump is securely in place and will not be damaged by this test:

a. Turn the manual lever of the Time Switch to OFF. b. Turn ON power at breaker panel.

c. Move the manual lever of Time Switch to the right (ON). Pump should start and run on full speed. In case of unsatisfactory results, turn OFF power, check your wiring, refer to Troubleshooting on Page 3.

1. The enclosure must be grounded as required by NEC, Article 680 and any applicable local codes. For Canadian installations, the transformer supply circuit must be protected by a ground fault circuit interrupter.

2. If this enclosure is used for direct connection of underwater lights, refer to 1999 NEC 680-21(b), 2002 NEC 680-24(b) or CEC 68-060, 062 and 066 for further details.

3. Make sure that all unused transformer taps (leads) are separately insulated.

4. Use the tables at the top of page 3 as a guide to determine the correct wire size.

5. Check voltage at lamp terminals after installation. It should be 12 ± 0.3 volts.

6. Install front panel over wiring compartment. The control is now ready for programming, see OPERATION section on Page 3.

OPERATION

TO SET FILTER PUMP TIME SWITCH, follow instructions on the right. The length of the daily filtration/ heating cycle depends on many variables such as size, shape, geographic location of the pool, water chemistry, type of pool equipment, usage and season of year. If not sure, contact your local pool service professional for advice.

THE FIREMAN SWITCH (Heater Protection Mechanism), if required, is factory set and shuts OFF the heater 20 minutes before the Time Switch turns OFF the filter pump. The Fireman Switch requires no setting or service.

WARNING: Do not disconnect high limit or pressure switches.

TIME SWITCH OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1. TO SET “ON” AND “OFF” TIMES: Hold TRIPPERS against edge of CLOCK-DIAL, pointing to time (AM or PM) when ON and OFF operations are desired. Tighten tripper screws firmly.

2. TO SET TIME-OF-DAY:

Pull CLOCK-DIAL outward. Turn in either direction and align the exact time-of-day on the CLOCK-DIAL (the time now, when switch is being put into operation) to the pointer.

• TO OPERATE SWITCH MANUALLY: Move MANUAL LEVER below CLOCK-DIAL left or right as indicated by arrows. This will not affect the next operation.
• FOR MORE THAN ONE DAILY ON-OFF OPERATION: Place additional tripper pairs on CLOCK-DIAL (order 156T1978A).
• IN CASE OF POWER FAILURE: Reset CLOCK-DIAL to proper time of day. See step 2 above.
