INSTALLATION

Installing the IntelliChem
Before installing the IntelliChem controller, read the following instructions.
1. IMPORTANT! If the equipment pad is below the water level of the pool,
please install a CHECK VALVE after the heater or use a Hartford Loop.
2. Identify new and existing equipment to be connected.
3. Decide if the sensors will be in a separate bypass line, or if the Flow cell
will be used. Caution: If the Flow Cell is being installed, the input
water maximum pressure is 25 PSI.
Determine the supply voltage, and wire the transformer wires as
4.
needed (see page 31).
5. Determine if the control to the equipment uses the same voltage as the
supply voltage. All controlled equipment must be compatible.
6. Determine the water-tap points for the flow cell bypass inlet and outlet.
7. Install the Flow Cell away from direct sunlight and on a flat vertical
surface.
8. Switch the main house circuit breaker OFF. Connect the supply voltage to
the PUMP SIDE OF THE MAIN FILTER PUMP RELAY located in the load/
power center (see page 40 for the IntelliChem controller AC power wiring
diagram). This ensures that the IntelliChem controller will only dispense
chemicals when the filter pump is ON. Note: The IntelliChem controller
must be connected to a separate dedicated circuit GFCI.
9. If using a Flow Cell install the bypass now.
10. Connect the pH and ORP sensors.
11. Test the plumbing for leaks.
12. Switch on the IntelliChem controller for the first time as described below.
to do so could result in death or serious injury to serviceman, pool users or others
due to electrical shock.

Risk of Electrical Shock or Electrocution!
IntelliChem controller must be installed by a licensed or certified
electrician or a qualified pool professional in accordance with
the current National Electrical Code and all applicable local
codes and ordinances. Improper installation will create an
electrical hazard which could result in death or serious injury to
pool users, installers or others due to electrical shock, and may
also cause damage to property.
Always disconnect the power to the IntelliChem controller
enclosure at the circuit breaker before servicing the unit. Failure
