Mounting the Equipment
OmniPL Wiring Panel
The OmniPL Wiring Panel is contained in a raintight enclosure that is suitable for outdoor mounting.
The control must be mounted a minimum of 6 ft. (2 meters) horizontal distance from the pool/spa
(more, if local codes require). The Wiring Panel is designed to mount vertically on a flat surface with
the knockouts facing downward. Because the enclosure also acts as a heat sink (disperses heat
from inside the box), it is important not to block the four sides of the control. Do not mount the Wiring
Panel inside a panel or tightly enclosed area.
When selecting a location, note that the standard cables lengths for flow switches and temperature
sensors, as well as optional accessories like Hayward TurboCells and actuators are all 15 ft. (5m)
long.
The Wiring Panel is heavy and may require two people to position and install. Select the proper
location and mounting hardware given the size and weight of the unit. The Wiring Panel mounting
brackets require a total of 6 mounting bolts to fasten to the mounting surface.
OmniPL Controller
The Controller comes with a 15 ft cord and plugs into the Wiring Panel. It should be mounted in a
location that is convenient for the user to view and change pool/spa settings. When considering the
mounting location, make sure there is enough clearance above the enclosure so that the flip door
is able to be opened fully. Also be sure to allow enough clearance below the Controller to access
the Ethernet connector if used. For best viewing results, position the Controller where it won’t be
subjected to direct sunlight.
The Controller has two keyhole cutouts on the back of its enclosure. To mount, screw the two pro-
vided fasteners into the mounting surface at the desired location as shown. A mounting template can
be found on the back cover of this manual. Tighten until the bottom of the screw heads are 1/8” off
the mounting surface. Position the Controller cutouts over the screw and slide the unit downward.
You may have to tighten or loosen the screws slightly to fully engage the screw heads to get a snug
fit.
