17 CONNECTING TO AN AUTOMATION SYSTEM External Control with IntelliComm® Communication Center Use the RS-485 communications cable to remotely control the IntelliFlo® Variable Speed Pump from an IntelliComm communication center. The IntelliComm system provides four (4) pairs of input terminal connections. These inputs are actuated by either 15 - 240 VAC or 15 - 100 VDC. Use the device inputs, to control the programmed pump speeds.
18 To connect the IntelliFlo® Variable Speed Pump communication cable to EasyTouch® or IntelliTouch® Control System load center: 1. Switch the main power off to the load center. 3. Remove the two retaining screws securing the high voltage cover panel, and remove it from the enclosure. IntelliTouch COM port (J7/8): Connect the GREEN (#2) and YELLOW (#3) wires to the COM port (J20) screw terminals (#2 and #3). Be sure to match the color coding of the wires; YELLOW to YELLOW and GREEN to GREEN.
19 Connecting the Pump to a SunTouch® Control System The IntelliFlo® Variable Speed Pump can be controlled by a SunTouch system via the RS-485 communication cable. Switch OFF main system power to the SunTouch system power center before making any connections. 1. Unlatch the front door of the SunTouch system power center and open the door. 4. Strip back the cable conductors 6 mm (1/4”). Insert the wires into the screw terminals (provided). Secure the wires with the screws.
20 MAINTENANCE DO NOT open the strainer pot if IntelliFlo® Variable Speed Pump fails to prime or if pump has been operating without water in the strainer pot. Pumps operated in these circumstances may experience a build up of vapor pressure and may contain scalding hot water. Opening the pump may cause serious personal injury.
21 SERVICING Always disconnect power to the IntelliFlo® Variable Speed Pump at the circuit breaker and disconnect the communication cable before servicing the pump. Failure to do so could result in death or serious injury to service people, users or others due to electric shock. Read all servicing instructions before working on the pump. DO NOT open the strainer pot if pump fails to prime or if pump has been operating without water in the strainer pot.
22 Pump Reassembly 1. When installing the replacement shaft seal, use silicone sealant on the metal portion before pressing into the seal plate as shown. Note: Use extreme care when applying sealant. Be sure no sealant contacts the seal plate surface or the ceramic seal. Allow sealant to cure overnight before reassembling. 2. Before installing the rotating portion of the seal into the impeller, be sure the impeller is clean. Use a light density soap and water to lubricate the inside of the seal.
23 Drive Assembly Removal and Installation Before installing this product, read and follow all warning notices and instructions on page ii - iii. To install the drive assembly onto the motor assembly: 1. Be sure all electrical breakers and switches are turned off before installing the drive. 2. Be sure that the gasket between the drive and motor is in place. It is critical in keeping moisture out of the drive and motor. Replace the gasket if damaged. Do not reassemble with a damaged or missing gasket.
24 TROUBLESHOOTING Problem Possible Cause Pump failure. Pump will not prime - Air leak in suction. (For alert display messages, PRIME ERROR may be displayed. refer to Alerts and Warnings on page 23). Pump will not prime - Not enough water. Reduced capacity and/or head. Corrective Action Check suction piping and valve glands on any suction gate valves. Secure lid on pump strainer pot and be sure lid gasket is in place. Check water level to be sure skimmer is not drawing air.
25 Troubleshooting, Continued Problem Possible Cause Corrective Action Inadequate circulation. Filter or pump basket dirty. Check trap basket; if plugged, turn pump off and clean basket. (For alert display messages, refer to Alerts and Warnings on page 23). Suction/discharge piping is too small. Speed is set too slow for proper filtration cycle. Electrical problem. Could appear as a “Low Voltage” alarm. (For alert display messages, PRIME ERROR may be displayed.
