Section 4. Laminar Jet with LED
Light Installation (Use with
Model JLLED)
WARNING
Risk of Electrical Shock or Electrocution.
This laminar jet with LED light must be installed
by a licensed or certifi ed electrician or a qualifi ed
pool serviceman in accordance with the 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 or spa users,
installers or others due to electrical shock,
and may also cause damage to proper ty.
Always disconnect the power to the laminar jet with
LED light at the circuit breaker before installing or
servicing the light. Failure to do so could result in
death or serious injury to serviceman, pool or spa
users or others due to electrical shock.
4.1
Preparing the Laminar Jet with LED
Light for Installation
NOTE The electrician must complete preparatory
steps before the laminar jet with LED light is
installed. See Figure 1.
Ensure that the pool meets the requirements of the
current National Electrical Code and all local codes
and ordinances. A licensed or certifi ed electrician must
install the electrical system to meet or exceed those
requirements before the laminar jet with LED light is
installed. Some of the requirements of the National
Electrical Code, which the pool electrical systems must
meet, are as follows:
1.
The low voltage transformer must be located at
least 8 inches above water level, at least 4 inches
above ground level, and at least 4 feet from the
edge of the pool.
2.
All metal items within 5 feet of the pool must be
properly electrically bonded to a reliable point of
grounding.
4.2
Installing the Laminar Jet with LED
Light
NOTE Perform these steps only after the electrical
system requirements are met.
1.
Feed cord through conduit to low voltage
transformer, leaving at least 4 feet of cord at the
light fixture to coil into the deck canister. See
Figure 1. The 4 feet of cord allows the light to be
easily serviced.
2.
Cut the cord at the low voltage transformer,
leaving at least 6 inches of cord to make
connections.
3.
Strip 6 inches of the outer cord jacket to expose
the three (3) insulated wires. Be careful not to
damage the insulation on the three (3) inner wires.
4.
Install strain relief over cord jacket and connect all
three (3) wires to the corresponding circuit wires
in the low voltage transformer. Install the low
voltage transformer cover.
5.
Turn on main switch or circuit breaker, and the
switch, which operates the laminar jet with LED
light, to check for proper operation. Refer to
Section 7, Operating Instructions.
4.3
Wiring Options for Controlling
Laminar Jet with LED Lights
NOTE The laminar jet with LED lights will not
operate properly with light dimmers. Do not wire
the laminar jet with LED lights to any dimming
circuitry.

4.3.1 Wiring to an AquaLink
System
The laminar jet with LED light can be wired into
the Jandy AquaLink RS control system to provide
simplifi ed operation of the lights, as well as a means
to synchronize the color change function. Connect
the laminar jet with LED lights to one of the auxiliary
relays in the Power Center.
NOTE It is recommended to connect one (1) laminar
jet with LED light per relay so each light can be
controlled separately. However, up to four (4)
laminar jets with LED lights can be connected
on a single relay. If there are more than four (4)
lights installed on one (1) AquaLink RS system,
ensure there is more than one (1) auxiliary relay
available in the Power Center.
Refer to Figure 7 to connect the laminar jet with LED
lights to the power center.
