Hi All,
I am looking to wire a 220v pentair pool pump to a Intermatic ET8000 timer.
In the directions there are a number of options and I am looking to wire the ET8215 DPST Option set for SImultaneous throw. But as this is a SW Pool I also have a Mineral Springs MS10 controller.
After looking at the manual for the ET8215 and various forums and recommendations I realize that I need to connect both the Pump and the MS10 Controller to the LOAD side of Timer for safety reasons. Based on that I said ok fair enough I will just convert the MS10 from 110v mode to 220V mode... The manual for the MS10 says there are a couple simple jumpers to adjust to set for correct voltage feed.. After opening up the MS10 however I discover no available jumper or spade lugs or screw lugs to allow me to make the voltage change. In essence the Manual and what you will see in the link below are 2 different things.... Looking for guidance or options..
I have one notion to consider which could be to use just one of the poles on the load of the timer to also power the MS10 in 110v mode.. I would much prefer to balance the draw across both poles.. if I cannot get the MS10 to switch to 220v mode. I am not sure what to do.. thoughts welcome..
