RECOMMENDED HYDRAULIC SCHEMATIC
Refer for "PLUMBING REQUIREMENTS" on page 3

PLUlVIBING REQUIREMENTS
Plumbsystem inaccordance with "RECOMMENDED HYDRAULIC SCHEMATIC" on page 2, lmal
cdesund the followingguidelines.
Bring all lines back to the equip~nentpad.
1.
Spa should be at or above the level of the pool.
If
spa isattached to pool, provide adam bctwcenthe bwo bodiesofwilter to allow spa overflow
intopool,
If spa is not attachedto pwl, an overflow. sufficient insizetocarry full pump-flow,
must
bt: installedat water level in tlie spa.
2.
Plurnha three-portIntake Valve onthe suction-sideolthe filter pump, sothat cearer portofvnlvr
isconnectedto the pu111pinlet.
Connect spa suction to one
side ofIntakeValve, andpool suction to the othcr side.
3. Plurnh a three-port Return Valve on thereturn-side of the heater, so tllot rcturt~walcr will cnlcr
valve through the center pon,
Conncct spa returntoone sideofReturnValve, andpoolreturn to the other side.
4.
A W spa make-up line (incot-prating a H" manualgateorball valve and, forelevatedspis, a '/I".
check'valvc) may bc providedtobypassthe pool return line. l'his willenable somealthe chemi-
cally-balanced water from
the poolto cycle through die spa. The manualvalve will allow lhe
amount ofbypasto be adjusted,
5. If the spa is to be constructedinconcrete, specialprovision should be madeut this time for the.
installationof the Spa-side Remote Control.
Select n convenient location in the deck orabovewater levelinthe spa wall (wheretheSpa-side
Ru~norewillnot be submergedby the spa water). and install n 6" to 12" length of I-'/)'" pvc pipe to
pmvide r receptaclefor the Spa-side Reniorc. The pipeshould belevelandprotrudebeyond the
finished surfilcc ofthe spa. It will be cut back n later date.
Reducepipsize downto $5'' or %iV conduit, andrun to proposed LX-IOU locationat equipment
pad. Use swcep elbows for turns.
The Spa-ride Remotewlllnot be installed until spa construction is iwmplclc.
6.
Forsystems which incorporate a skimmer. it ispossibletobalance the amount ofsuctionbetween
the skimmer andmaindrainfor maintenance purposes.
This
is uasily accomplished by installing a manual three-port mixingvalve at the suction linc.
Plumbonc port to the skimmer and the other to the maindnin.
7. If a "non-booster pun~p"pressure-sidepoolcleaner is beingused, plumb a manualthree-port valve
betweenthefilter pumpandfilter, with the third portplumbed to thepoolcleanerlinc. and install a
motorizedtwo-porz PoolCleaner Vaive at this line. The motorized valve will autr~~naticallyopen
wl~encvcrtlie ControlSystem activates Ihe pool clmna.
8.
Ifa boosterpump poolcleaner is beingused. plumbthe booster pump so that its suction-side is
connectedto the pool return, after the heater and as close to the ground as praaicnl.

Select a col~venientlocation tomount the LX-100 PowerCenter. Ensure ht the location is greikr than 5
frrt from the water's edge and no hurther than 15 feet from any motorized valves (otherwiseValve Actua-
tor cableswill need lobe extended).
Mount the
1.X-100 on a flat surfaceusing appropriatescrews lhrough the three cxtenlal mounting paints
located on the side
of the enclosure, Do not drill and mount from inside the enclosure.
Looscn LOCK SCREW of hinged faceplate in left-side of LX-100, and swingopen to expose the low-volt-
age compirtment. All low-voltageconnections are made tothe circuit board, in accordancewith wiring
diagram lucated insidedoor.
The high-vottage wiring compnrtment is located behind service panel in right-side of LX-100.
HIGH VOLTAGE WIRING
GENERAI,
At khe equip~nentsite, install an electricalsub-panel wbh separatebreakers for each load,
Circuit breakers should
be readily accessibleto the spa user, but installed at least 5 feet froin the water's
cdgu.
Make sure that the rnolor(s)on the equipment have built-in thermal protection.
At the LX-100, remove the
service panel (at left)to expose the high-voltagecompariment, and knock-out
the appropriate l~oles at bottom of enclosureto facilitate condui~mounting. Screw terminals are pmvidcd
for high-voltagecorrncctions.
SYSTEM POWER
Provide a repiirate circuitb~akerto power the system. Either 1 15 or 23OVAC cnn be used [ I 15V is pref-
erable). System dnwsless than I-Amp. The breaker will open all ungrounded supply conductors to com-
ply with section
422-20 of theNational Electrical Code,ANSVNFPA 70-1987.
Run approprialo wires from circuit breaker to high-voltagecompartmentof LX-100, and connectto top
renninal black in iiccordince wilh wiring label, which is marked SYSTEM IDOWER,
Install twojumper wires for 11 SV, or onejumper for 230V, accordingto wiring label.
EQUIPMENT POWER
Provide independent circuit breakers for R1 (FLTR), It2 (AUXI), TW (AUX2)and R4 (AUX3).
Run opproprii~tewires from breiersto high-voltagecompartlnentof LX-100. and connect to LINE1 and
LINE2 sscrcw terminalsat each terminal block.
Connect pumps and other high-voltageequipment 10 LOAD1 and LOAD2terminals.
Each individual terminal block can
be wircd foreithcr 115V or 230VAC.
Note: For 11 5V cquiprnent. only half of the terminal block will bt. used (ic: LINE1 rmd LOADI).

LOW VOLTAGE CABLES
Install cnble betwccn the low vokage colliparrment of the LX-100 PowerCe~lterilnd Ihc various pieces uT
