Page 14: Equipment Connections
Equipment Connections Voltage Conversions - All equipment circuits in this control system are convertible from 120v to 240v. Pump 1 is a two-speed pump utilizing the black wire for low speed and the red wire for high speed. Pump 1 is factory configured for 120V. To convert pump 1 to 240V, move the red coded white wire (Common) from N to L2. -
