REMOTE CONTROL CONNECTIONS

1. NOTE: Switch off power to heater at main circuit breaker panel.
2. Remove the front side door panel, see Figure 31 on page 39.
3. Locate the Fireman Switch jumper wire; remove the wire. See Figure 33 below.
4. Connect the Remote Control Dry Contact wires. See Figure 33 below.
Figure 33.
To connect a 2-Wire Control (such as IntelliCenter
4.
or a timer:
- Remove the factory installed jumper from the Fireman's Switch terminals.
- Connect wires between the Fireman's Switch terminals on the heater and the relay. Connect wires from the
controller or timer to the Fireman's Switch. Controller, timer or relay should be sized to handle 24 VAC at 0.5
Amp (because it will be completing the 24 VAC control board circuit on the heater as shown in Figure 32 on
page 39). DO NOT apply line voltage to the Fireman's Switch terminals. Use 18 gauge wire with a minimum
3/64-in (1.2 mm) thick insulation rated for a temperature rise of at least 105°C.
- Knock-outs are provided to route the wires through the bottom of the control box and past the junction box.
5. Close front side door panel.
To control heaters that are operated in parallel, connect wiring at same locations on heater as 2-Wire. It is imperative
that each control circuit is isolated from the other control circuits, to avoid that current will flow from one heater to
another through the control circuits.
NOTICE: The fuse for the Fireman's Switch is a 1.25 Amp 1¼ x ¼" fast blow fuse, which is commonly available.
FIREMAN'S SWITCH
TIME CLOCK/FIREMANS SWITCH (See Figure 31 above):
A time clock controlling the filter pump should be a dual switch low-voltage Fireman's Switch should be set to shut
off the call for heat to the pool heater 15 to 20 minutes before shutting down the pool pump. Always use crimp type
connectors when connecting two wires. To operate the heater with a time clock, connect the timer to the fireman's
switch wiring connection, as shown in the illustration on right. The fireman's switch connection is located at the
Yellow jumper wire below the fuse. The fireman's switch connection must be a dry contact and must not supply
power to the heater. Powering the fireman's switch connection externally may damage the heater, and is not
covered by the herater warranty.
