PAND for easy wiring to the additional equipment. For remote access through the internet, the HLEXPAND connects to the OmniLogic as well as the home’s router using a standard Cat5/6 Ethernet cable which can be run up to 200 ft. away. If a hard wired connection to the router is difficult, a Hayward HLWLAN wireless transceiver may be used instead.
• Ethernet ports for connection to OmniLogic and to the home’s router/access point • 100A electrical subpanel that can accommodate up to 12 circuit breakers • connection for Hayward TurboCell used to generate chlorine for an additional body of water • connection for flow switch used to detect water flow •...
HLEXPAND inside a panel or tightly enclosed area. When selecting a location, note that the standard cables supplied with the included temperature sensors, as well as optional accessories like a Hayward Turbo- Cell and actuators are all 15 ft. (5m) long. Also, a 15 ft. Ethernet cable is included for connection to the OmniLogic so if mounting further away, you will need to supply your own cable.
The HLBASE offers optional chlorination for the primary body/bodies of water. The HLEXPAND can provide chlorination for an additional body of water if needed. This function requires a chlorinator cell and P-KIT (flow switch and cell unions) purchased separately at your Hayward dealer. Choose a chlorinator cell model based on the size of your additional pool/spa.
Flow Switch (supplied with P-KIT) A Hayward flow switch is required if using the optional TurboCell for chlorination, a liquid chlorine dispenser, chlorine tablet feeder or an AQL-CHEM2 for pH dis- pensing. The flow switch is a safety device that ensures that water is flowing before the OmniLogic/HLEXPAND starts to generate/dispense chlorine or dispenses acid.

Low Voltage Wiring Hayward Variable Speed Pump (VSP) Wiring Hayward VSPs connect to the HLEXPAND in the same manner as the OmniLogic. Refer to your pump manual for proper low voltage communication wiring between the HLEXPAND and the Hayward VSP.

The manuals supplied with most heaters also include specific wiring instructions for connecting the heater to an external control (usually identified as “2-wire” remote control). For millivolt or line voltage heaters, contact Hayward Tech support, 908-355-7995. Refer to the information on the fol- lowing pages for more details on the connection to several popular heaters.

If dual equipment will be used, the dual equipment spa sensor is required. If both solar and dual equipment are desired, another temperature sensor must be purchased separately. The sensors are provided with a 15 ft. cable. If a longer cable is required, contact the Hayward service dept. (908-355- 7995) for information on suitable cable types and splices.
