Introduction
Welcome! Your Pentair IntelliTouch Pool and Spa and Control System will change the way you view pool
and spa controls. This innovation in pool and spa automation offers complete freedom for you while
having full automation control over your pool, spa, lights, heater, pump, cleaners and much more.You
can now schedule multiple start and stop times to control your lights, heater, spa jets, and filter pumps.
Using the IntelliTouch Indoor Control Panel or MobileTouch®wireless control panel you can control your
pool, spa, and lights from anywhere inside or outside your home. Optional controllers are also available
such as the wireless Digital Tablet or Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), and in-wall Touch Screen that
can interface with your PC. IntelliTouch is a scalable system that can be upgraded to a completely
integrated home automation solution including audio, security, climate, irrigation and more. For more
information about using these interfaces, refer to the IntelliTouch ScreenLogic®Interface Accessory Kits
on page 7.
IntelliTouch System Overview
An IntelliTouch system can include five (5) to 40 high voltage relays circuits that can be used to control
any combination of pumps, lights, water features. A maximum of ten (10) relays can be housed in an
IntelliTouch Load Center or Power Center. Up to three (3) Load Centers or Power Centers can be
connected to a main Load Center for a maximum of 40 relays. User-configurable circuits can be used to
control equipment. The “Feature Macro” circuits feature allows any number of circuits to be combined
and controlled by a single button.
An optional IntelliTouch Dimmer Module (P/N 520406) can be installed for use to dim any high voltage
incandescent light such as Pentair Amerlite®and Pentair SpaBrite®lights. The dimmer module supports
multiple lights from 100 watts up to 1,000 watts and installs in a standard relay location. Any number of
dimmers (up to 10 maximum) may be used with a maximum combined load of 4,000 watt in a single
Load Center.
In the home
The IntelliTouch system can utilize multiple wired and wireless controllers including the Digital Tablet,
Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), the wired in-wall Touch Screen, Indoor Control Panel, and the wireless
MobileTouch remote control panel. Your existing home PC can also be used to control the IntelliTouch
system via the ScreenLogic interfaces. A maximum of four (4) ScreenLogic interfaces can be used, for
example, four Tablets, or four PDA’s, or four in-wall Touch Screen’s, or four PC’s in any combination.
Around the pool
Located near your spa, the IntelliTouch, iS10 or iS4 spa-side remote provide control buttons for various
pool and spa functions. The iS10 spa-side remote also provides a temperature display.
At the equipment pad
The pool pump, filter, and various IntelliTouch remote controllers and interfaces are connected to the
IntelliTouch Load Center and/or Power Center enclosure which are located at the equipment pad. The
Load Center enclosure is where the high voltage lines from the circuit breaker panel junction box at the
home are connected to. The pool service person can periodically check pool operations from the Load
Center.
Also at the equipment pad there are system pool and spa pipes connected to the pump, heater and
filtration system. Mounted on top the valves are motorized valve actuators used to automatically change
the direction flow of water through the plumbing system. There are also temperature sensors and a
cable that connects to the heater.

IntelliTouch Personality Kit Installation Guide
Plumbing Requirements
It is important that the pool and spa plumbing system be in accordance with local codes and the
Recommended Hydraulic Schematics (page 11, 12 and 13). Before starting, please review the
diagrams and the following recommended guidelines:
The spa should be at or above the level of the pool.
If the spa is attached to the pool, provide a dam between the two bodies of water to allow the spa
to overflow into the pool. If the spa is not attached to the pool, an overflow, sufficient in size to
carry a full pump-flow, must be installed at the water level in the spa.
Plumb a three-port Intake Valve on the suction-side of the filter pump, so that the center port of
the valve is connected to the pump inlet. Connect the spa suction to one side of the Intake Valve,
and the pool suction to the other side.
Plumb a three-port Return Valve on the return-side of the heater, so that the return water will
enter the valve through the center port.
Connect the spa return to one side of Return Valve, and the pool return to the other side.
If required, install a spa make-up line (consisting of a manual gate or ball valve, for elevated
spas install a check valve) to bypass the pool return line. This will enable some of the
chemically-balanced water from the pool to cycle through the spa. The manual valve will allow
the amount of bypass to be adjusted.
If the spa is to be constructed in concrete, special provision should be made at this time for the
installation of the Spa-Side remote Control.
Select a convenient location in the deck or above water level in the spa wall (where the
Spa-Side remote will not be submerged by the spa water), and install a 6 in. to 12 in. length of
one inch PVC pipe to provide a receptacle for the Spa-Side remote. The pipe should be level
and protrude beyond the finished surface of the spa. It will be cut back later at installation time.
Reduce the pipe size down to ½ in. or ¾ in. conduit, and run it to the proposed Load/Power
Center location at the equipment pad. Use sweep elbows for turns.
The Spa-Side remote will not be installed until the spa construction is completed.
For systems which incorporate a skimmer, it is possible to balance the amount of suction
between the skimmer and main drain for maintenance purposes. This is easily accomplished by
installing a manual three-port mixing valve at the suction line. Plumb one port to the skimmer and
the other to the main drain.
If a “non-booster pump” pressure-side pool cleaner is being used, plumb a manual three-port
valve between the filter pump and filter, with the third port plumbed to the pool cleaner line, and
install a motorized two-port Pool Cleaner Valve at this line. The motorized valve will
automatically open whenever the Control System activates the pool cleaner.
If a booster pump pool cleaner is being used, plumb the booster pump so that its suction-side is
connected to the pool return, after the heater, and as close to the ground as practical.

Plumb the solar feed and return lines between the filter and the heater. Install a three-port valve
at the feed line. Use a solar valve (model SOL-2T), to allow automatic draining of the panels.
A solar booster pump should be used when the distance to the panels exceed 200 ft., or the
panels are elevated higher than 25 ft.
Glazed solar panels require a drain valve (model HW-5B) to allow draining of the panels. This
prevents damage from overheating water. Install a drain valve at the solar feed line and connect
to the pool fill line.
Salt Chlorine Generator (SCG): IntelliChlor IC40 or IC20 salt chlorine generator cell with check
valve at the heater output. Refer to IntelliChlor User’s Guide (P/N 520589) for plumbing
requirements.
Equipment Location
All equipment, with the exception of the Spa-Side remote, must be located at least 10 ft. from the
water’s edge.

High Voltage Connections
WARNING - It is required that the main power into the home be switched OFF at the main circuit
breaker box whenever the high voltage cover-panel is removed. The main power must also be
switched OFF to access the Power/Load Center enclosure low voltage raceway.
Power Center and Load Center Description
Power Center and Load Center enclosures are identical with the exception of the circuit breaker
base (Sub-panel). For details, refer to the Load Center illustration, see page 15. Not shown is the
high voltage cover-panel and the front door. See the WARNING information above before opening
the cover-panel.
Power Center (without Sub-panel)
The Power Center is connected to an electrical circuit breaker panel (Sub-panel) installed
at the equipment pad. The AC power is provided from the Main-panel (located at the house) to the
Sub-panel. The Power Center is installed next to the Sub-panel. For complete Power/Load Center
installation instructions, refer to the Load/Power Center User’s Guide (P/N 520100).
