Good Morning, All:
I have a problem with my Salt Water Chlorine Generator. It is powered on all the time. My understanding is that it should only be powered on when the pool pump is on. I would prefer to not have to ask the installer back to my house to correct his incorrect installation. Is there a tutorial on how to wire Salt Water Chlorine Generator so that it runs when pump is on only?
1. My SWG is a Pentair intelliChlor IC20, powered by the IntelliChlor Power Center, which in turn gets its power from the same 230VAC circuit breaker connected to the pump, thus why it is always powered on.
2. I have the Pentair Intelliflo Variable Speed Ultra Energy Efficient Pump, powered by 230VAC from a dual 30 Amp circuit breaker.
3. I do not have the IntelliTouch, SunTouch or EasyTouch Load/Power Center. This is probably the reason pump and SWG are not synchroized.
4. I do not have the RS-485 cable that runs between the pump and the IntelliTouch, SunTouch or EasyTouch Load/Power Center. I suspect this is what provides the synchronizing signal to the SWG.
So, my question is: Is there another way of being able to synchronize the SWG to the Pump, or should I bite the bullet, an order these missing components?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
