2.0 INSTALLATION & OPERATION
2.1 CONTROLLER MOUNTING
2.1.1 Find a suitable location to mount the control box.
2.1.2 The controller should be no closer than 3m from the pool edge and a minimum 600mm
above ground. The power cable is 1.8m long and should be plugged directly into a general
power outlet. Do not use an extension lead.
2.1.3 Fix the mounting bracket to a solid structure with the screw and wall plug kit provided.
Slide the controller on, locking it into place. Adjust the screws on the back of the unit to
ensure a snug fit.
2.2 PUMP CONNECTION
2.2.1 The filtration pump plugs into the 240V socket (labelled PUMP).
2.2.2 The maximum load is 9.98 AMPS at 2395W.
2.3 CHLORINATOR CONNECTION
2.3.1 The chlorinator connects directly into a general power outlet, do not use an extension
lead. Plug the power lead from H5RO-I into the pump output of the chlorinator. The
chlorinator will operate the required filtration requirements.
2.4 HEATER CONNECTION
2.4.1 Connect the Heater Output cable from the H5RO-I controller output (labelled HEATER) to
the Heat Demand Contact located on the heater unit.
2.4.2 Check with the heater manufacturer for correct interlocking procedure.
2.4.3 The Heater Output is for low-voltage (MAX 24V at 1 AMP) switching only.
2.4.4 Note: If the heater’s external switching circuit is greater than 24V AC, an external relay kit
(can be purchased separately) is to be installed by a licensed electrician.
2.4.5 Note: Damage caused by incorrect connections will void warranties.
2.5 HEAT DEMAND
2.5.1 As most pools are filtered for 8 hours a day, extra run times are often required to
maintain the water at the desired temperature.
2.5.2 The heater is equipped with a Heat Demand function that will assist in maintaining the
temperature of the pool by communicating to the H5RO-I.
2.5.3 The controller will override the filtration pump when heat is called for by the heater. The
heater monitors the system temperature within its defined run times. By this means, the
the desired water temperature is maintained.
2.6 LCD SCREEN
2.6.1 The LCD screen displays the current mode of operation, and the pump on status.
2.6.2 The controller will display - Heat On or Heat Off, Pump On or Pump Off, and CNTRL ON.
