17 CONNECTING TO AN AUTOMATION SYSTEM External Control with IntelliComm® Communication Center Use the RS-485 communications cable to remotely control the IntelliFloXF® Variable Speed Pump from an IntelliComm communication center. The IntelliComm communication center 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 IntelliFloXF® Variable Speed Pump communication cable to EasyTouch® or IntelliTouch® Control System load center: 1. Switch the main power off to the load center. 2. Unlatch the two enclosure door spring latch, and open the door. 3. Remove the two retaining screws securing the high voltage cover panel, and remove it from the enclosure. 4. Loosen the two access screws securing the control panel. 5.
19 Connecting the Pump to a SunTouch® Control System The IntelliFloXF® and IntelliProXF® Variable Speed Pumps can be controlled by a SunTouch control system via the RS-485 communication cable. To connect the pump RS-485 communication cable to the SunTouch control system circuit board: 1. Unlatch the front door of the SunTouch system power center and open the door. 2. Loosen the retaining screw on front panel. Open the hinged front panel to access the electronics compartment. 3.
20 MAINTENANCE DO NOT open the strainer pot if 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. In order to avoid the possibility of personal injury, make sure the suction and discharge valves are open and strainer pot temperature is cool to touch, then open with extreme caution.
21 SERVICING Always disconnect power to the IntelliFloXF® 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 Drive Assembly Removal and Installation Pump Reassembly/Seal Replacement 1. Install the spring end of the mechanical seal onto the impeller shaft. Be sure black/carbon face is facing outward. 2. Remount the seal plate to the motor using the four (4) lock washers and four (4) nuts. 3. With the white ceramic face facing outward, press the seal into the seal plate with your thumbs and wipe off the ceramic with a clean cloth. Do not lubricate seal faces. 4. Hand tighten impeller onto the motor shaft. 5.
23 Drive Assembly Removal and Installation Before installing this product, read and follow all warning notices and instructions on pages 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. 3.
24 TROUBLESHOOTING Always disconnect power to the IntelliFloXF® 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 serviceman, pool users or others due to electric shock. DO NOT attempt to adjust or service without consulting your dealer or a qualified pool technician.
25 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 Warning on page 23). Electrical problem. (For alert display messages, refer to Alerts and Warning on page 23). Check and clean pool filter. Suction/discharge piping is too small. Increase piping size. Speed is set too slow for proper filtration cycle. Increase filtration run time.
