My 2 HP Pool motor died and thinking to replace with Variable Speed Motor. Challenge is to integrate with Aqualogic Automation and Chlorination PS-8. I read few posts and concluded that I can install replacement VS motor but have to control water flow from motor built in controller.
Questions -
1) If I use Aqualogic Timer and provide Power to VS motor through relay the way I do for current motor - will it damage VS motor ? as it has on board controller for power on/off (timer) and expects continuous power from source.
Also using Aqualogic times will make sure pool cleaner interlock so that cleaner is started only after pool motor is running.
2) Can I disable freeze protection in motor so that I utilize freeze protection from Aqualogic ? As Aqualogic toggles water to Pool and spa during freeze by using remote controlled Jandy Valves.
3) Or should I just go with 2 speed motor and control it with Aqualogic using 2 relays. (I still have to understand how but I see it is possible and Aqualogic will control 2 speeds) ?
