• • WARNING: Risk of Electric Shock. Connect controller only to a grounding type recepta- cle protected by a ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFI). Hayward recommends installation to a dedicated GFI circuit breaker performed by a licensed electrician. • WARNING: Disconnect power before servicing. Other than the fuses, there are no user serviceable parts inside the controller.

Foreword Congratulations on your wise investment. The product you have selected from the Hayward line ® of automated controllers should provide you with substantially reduced chemical maintenance, im- proved compliance with Health Department operating standards, chemical cost savings, and many years of reliable operation.
The pH Sensor samples water from the filtration system and sends signals to the controller indi- cating the acidity of the water. The ideal pH range for pools and spas is 7.4 - 7.6. The HCC 2000 controller is preset from the factory to maintain pH 7.5. If pH is maintained below 7.4 (too acidic), eye irritation, corrosion of equipment, and damage to the pool or spa surface can occur.

(redox) of the water. ORP is an actual measure of sanitizer activity (chlorine, bromine, ozone, etc.) and bacteriological water quality rather than an expression of chemical residual levels. The HCC 2000 controller is preset from the factory to maintain ORP at 650 millivolts.
11. Connect chemical feeders to the controller as labeled (See diagram on following page). 12. Check all electrical and mechanical connections. Resume filtration system operation and check for any leaks. USE ONLY HAYWARD GENUINE REPLACEMENT PARTS...

Confirm that your pool or spa water conforms to the following ranges before powering on and setting up the HCC 2000. The table below indicates generally accepted guidelines. Always maintain water chemistry accord- ing to standards set by your local or State Health Department.
Selecting Acid or Base Feed The HCC 2000 is preset from the factory to operate in the acid feed mode (when pH exceeds the setpoint, the pH chemical feeder is activated). If the sanitizer used at your facility causes the pH to decrease you must select base feed mode.

Changing the pH Setpoint The HCC 2000 is preset from the factory to maintain pH at 7.5. To set pH control at a different level, perform the following: Press the pH Setpoint Adjustment Button (#4) until the green “SET” LED is illuminated.

About Proportional Feed The HCC 2000 features an advanced proportional feed algorithm which constantly analyzes demand for chemicals and initiates feeding in intervals based on the relationship between setpoint and actual water sample values.

OFF: The pH feed and ORP feed decisions are independent of each other. This is the default selection. On: The pH Priority feature is enabled. Inhibits the ORP feed output when the pH High Alarm is triggered. ORP feed will resume when pH High Alarm stops. USE ONLY HAYWARD GENUINE REPLACEMENT PARTS...

System Maintenance HCC 2000 Controller The HCC 2000 controller unit is virtually maintenance free. Cleaning of the enclosure, front panel and flow cell can be performed using a clean, soft cloth moistened with mild soap and water solution or glass cleaner. Use of abrasives or harsh chemicals may damage the enclosure and membrane switch panel.

Winterization The sensors should be prepared for storage as outlined above and protected from freezing tem- peratures. Although the HCC 2000 controller is designed to withstand a broad temperature range, winter storage in a secure location is desirable. The flow cell and poly tubing must be drained prior to exposure to freezing temperatures. Either purge all water using compressed air or thoroughly drain through the valve ports and tubing con- nections.
Troubleshooting Each HCC 2000 controller is manufactured to the highest quality standards and then thoroughly tested before leaving the factory. State of the art design and fabrication technology ensure years of trouble free operation. Most apparent malfunctions can be solved through the following corrective actions: No lights are illuminated when controller is powered on.
WARRANTY Hayward warrants the HCC 2000 automated controller to be free of defects ® in material and workmanship for a period of one year from date of ship- ment from our factory or authorized distributor. Liability under this warranty is limited to the repair or replacement of any device or component which is returned to the factory within one year of delivery to original purchaser, ship- ping prepaid, and which is found to be defective upon examination.
