EMULATOR MODULE
MODEL # MOD-EMU
The Emulator module comes with a male
IEPconnecon(InniteExpandability
Port).Priortostart-up,rstensureallthe
toggleswitchesforthe“ModuleAlarms”
and“LampAlarm”areintheOFF(toggle
up)posion.PlugtheEmulatorconnector
intotheIEPontheBLACKCOMB/HO
controller,thenpluginthecontroller
powercord.
ToEmulateaparcularmodulefailure,
togglethecorrespondingswitchtothe
ON(toggledown)posion.Thealarm
can be cleared by returning the switch to
itsOFF(toggleup)posion.Thedevice
alsocanemulatetheUVintensityreportedbyaUVsensormodule.Turningtheright“UV”
knobintheclockwisedireconwillincreasetheintensity,whileturningitcounterclockwisewill
decreasetheintensity.Pleasenotethattoseeallthecapabiliesofthesensor,youwillneed
tocycletheintensitythroughtherangeof49through66%.The“DaysRemaining”cyclecan
alsobeadjustedbyturningthele“Days”knob.Theemulatormodulemustonlybesupplied
atSELV.

SOLENOID MODULE
MODEL # MOD-SOL1 (in 110V, NEMA 5-15 plug)
MOD-SOL2 (in 230V, CEE 7/7 plug)
MOD-SOL3 (in 230V, BS 1363 plug)
MOD-SOL4 (in 230V, AS/NZS 3112 plug)
TheSolenoidModuleisdesignedtoconnectaNORMALLY
CLOSEDlinevoltagesolenoidvalvetothecontroller.Itis
possibletousea12Vor24Vnormallyclosedsolenoidby
replacingtheACpowercord.Notethatthemaximumcontact
rangis240VAC(50-60Hz)/30VDC/2A.
LOCATION
Step 1) Findasuitablelocaononthewallforthesolenoid
module. The module must be installed close enough to the
controller,ortheUVsensortobeabletopluginthemale
IEP connector. The module must also be installed close
enough to the actual solenoid valve and this distance will
bedependentonthecordlengthoftheparcularsolenoid
valve that is used.
Step 2)Pickalocaonforthesolenoidvalveandinstallas
perthemanufacturer’sdirecons.Thesolenoidmodule
requiresbareleadsforconnecontoterminalblocks,so
ifthesolenoidcablehasaplugaached,removetheplug
andstripthewirestoasuitablelength.
INSTALLATION
Step 1) MakesurethesolenoidvalvecableisNOTpluggedintotheelectricaloutlet.Insert
thesolenoidvalvecablethroughthecenterholeofthemiddlestrainrelief.Connectthethree
electricalwirestotheterminalblockthatismarked“SOLENOID”(seeFig.2).Connectthe
groundwireintheposionmarked“GND”,thelinevoltagewireintheposionmarked“L1”
andtheneutralwireintheposionmarked“N”.Typicalwirecolourconguraonsaremarked
directlyonthecircuitboardtotheleoftheSOLENOIDterminalblocktoaidinthisprocess
(seeFig.3)Ifyouareunsureofthecorrectwiringconguraonforyouparcularsolenoid
valve,pleasecontactanapprovedelectricalcontractor.Onceallthelinevoltageconnecons
havebeenmade,ghtenthestrainreliefnuttosecurethecabletothesolenoidmodule.

Step 2) Plugthesolenoidvalveintotheapplicableelectrical
outlet.Atthisstage,thefunconalityofthesolenoidvalve
canbetestedbypressingthesolenoidtestbuonlocatedon
theupperleofthecircuitboard.Manuallydepressing(and
holding)thisbuonwillcompletetheelectricalcircuitandwill
openthenormallyclosedsolenoidvalve.Youshouldbeableto
heartheacvaonofthesolenoidvalveatthisstagetoensure
thevalveisfunconingproperly(seeFig.4).
Step 3) MakesureyourUVcontrollerisunpluggedfromthe
powersource.Oncealltheseconneconshavebeenmade,
axthemaleIEPplugofthesolenoidmodulecableintothe
IEPportonthecontroller(seeFig.5),oranyotheravailable
IEPportsuchastheUVsensor,4-20mAmoduleorremote
alarmmodule.ItdoesnotmaerwhichIEPportanymodule
isaachedto,aslongastheyareaached.
OPERATION
Step 1) PlugtheBLACKCOMBcontrollerintothepower
sourceandmakesurethesolenoidmoduleisacvatedon
thecontroller.Duringthestart-upsequence,theSOLENOID
MODULEscreenwillindicatea“inialized”whenthemodule
isacvatedproperly(seeFig.6).

Step 2) Thecontrollerwillonlynofyyouwhenthereisafailure
modewherebythesolenoidmodule(andconnectedsolenoidvalve)
willbeacvated.OntheBLACKCOMB5.1system,thesolenoid
modulewillbeacvated(shungotheowofwater)uponLAMP
FAILURE(seeFig.7).Toremedythis,replacetheUVlampandrestart
thesystemasperthedireconsoutlinedintheOwner’sManual.
Step 3) OntheBLACKCOMB6.1systemwhereaUVsensorisinstalled,
thesolenoidmodulewillbeacvated(shungotheowofwater)
uponaLOWUVcondion(lessthan50%)(seeFig.8).Toremedythis,
youwillneedtoaddressthereasonforthislowUVcondionwhich
may be due to a dirty UV sensor and quartz sleeve, a lamp that is
not eming enough UV energy, or a change in the water quality.
PleaserefertotheUVsystemsOwner’sManualforcorrecveacon
procedures.

LAMPFAILUREScreen
Step 4) To determine what posion the solenoid valve is currently in, the solenoid module
incorporates three lights on the circuit board (see Fig. 9). When the solenoid is in the OPEN
posionagreenlightwillappearonthecircuitboardbesidetheword“OPEN”.Whenthevalve
isCLOSED,aredlightwillappearonthecircuitboardbesidetheword“CLOSED”.Andwhenthe
solenoidisinanOVERRIDEposion,anamberlightwillappearonthecircuitboardbesidethe
word“OVERRIDEON”.

EMERGENCY BYPASS
Inacasewherethesolenoidvalvehasbeenacvated(valveisclosedandnowaterisallowed
toow),thesolenoidmodulehastheabilitytobypassthesolenoidvalveincaseofan
