Converting The Heater For A 120V Power Source; Bonding - Jandy LXi Installation And Operation Manual

NOTE If the heater is converted to accept 120V, the
"Hot" wire of the 120V power supply has to
be connected to the black wire (ACH1) on the
power distribution board and the "Neutral" wire
of the 120V power supply has to be connected
to red wire (ACN1) of the power distribution
board.
To wire the LXi heater to a 120V or 240V /60
Hertz (Hz) electrical source:
1. Remove the door of the heater.
2. Connect the wires from the power source to the
leads on the right side of the heater in the space
behind the raceway. See Figure 21.
NOTE No external junction box is required.
6.2.1 Converting the Heater for a
120V Power Source
To convert the LXi heater to 120 Volt, 60 Hz AC
requires reversal of the voltage selector board on the
power distribution board. The following procedure
should be performed before the heater is connected to
a power source:
1. Identify the power distribution board on the
heater. It is located to the right of the ignition
control on the raceway. See Figure 22.
2. Cut the plastic wire tie that is holding the volt-
age selector board in place and discard the wire
tie. Unplug the voltage selector board from the
receptacle. See Figure 23.
3. Rotate the voltage selector board 180° and
reinsert it into the receptacle so that the hole in
the board is not visible. Be sure that the board is
securely seated in the receptacle.
NOTE The voltage selector board is keyed so that it
will fi t in only one direction for either selected
voltage (either side of the board).

Bonding

CAUTION
To prevent premature failure of the appliance result-
ing from stray voltages and voltage differentials, the
heater must be bonded to other equipment which is
part of the pool plumbing system with a solid copper
wire not smaller in diameter than 8 AWG (6 AWG in
Canada).

ATTENTION
Pour éviter le bris prématuré de l'appareil dû à
des tensions vagabondes et à des différences
de tension, le chauffe-piscine doit être scellé à
l'équipement faisant partie de la plomberie de la
piscine à l'aide d'un fi l de cuivre massif dont le di-
amètre n'est pas inférieur à un calibre 8 (un calibre
6 dans Canada).
