Hayward Aqua Solar User Manual

INSTALLATION
Mounting
The Aqua Solar is designed for outdoor use. Mount the enclosure vertically with the
knockouts facing downward. For safety, the Aqua Solar must be a minimum of 5 feet
(horizontally) from the pool or spa.
Power input
Turn off power at circuit breaker before wiring. Follow NEC and all local electrical
codes. Wire to either 120VAC or 240VAC per the diagram below. If the Aqua Solar
is being powered from the same circuit as one of the pumps, wire to the relay first and
then jumper over the Aqua Solar terminal block. Do NOT use the Aqua Solar termi-
nal block as a junction for pump power, the terminal block is not rated for high amps.
Be sure to connect the earth ground to the green terminal.
Output wiring to solar diverter valve
Most installations use a solar valve, which diverts water through the collector panels
when solar heat is available. For Hayward, Jandy, and Compool valve actuators (with
wire end connectors), two 3-pin connectors are supplied. Plug the actuator into one
of the Aqua Solar's two 3-pin connectors (see diagram above for location of connec-
tors). If the valve operates opposite to the way it is supposed to, disconnect and plug
into the other connector.

NOTES:
1) Do not use Aqua Solar terminal block as a junction for pump wiring.
2) Most codes require that each pump be on a separate circuit.
3) Aqua Solar will ensure sweep pump runs only when filter pump is running.
4) Sweep pump will turn off for approximately 5 minutes when solar turns on.
