My Hayward cell notes 25 volts and 5 amps max. My panel is it is drawing +/-7.25 amps.

What's this?

As long as the box isn't giving a high salt light, you're good.

It says 15 volts?

Is this a new install? Sounds like your feeding 120VAC into a 220VAC system. Check the main AC input voltage against the PCB incoming AC configuration.

Nope. Voltage fine. It is showing north of 25 volts and 7 amps, both.

Panel says 2900 ppm salt.

Those numbers are normal but trying to figure out where the 15 Volts came from?

Typo. Sorry din't catch it earlier! Feexed eet.

Still, if the unit notes 5 amps max and the panel is showing 7, is that a good thing?

 

[JamesW]

It's fine. No idea why they print 5 amps on it. The box turns off at about 8 amps (depending on the software version).
