The ELC-800r unit will actuate up to a 2” solenoid valve with a 24 VAC, 10 watt
(max) supply, without the use of an auxiliary relay. AquatiControl Technology
recommends an anti-water hammer or slow close solenoid valve. The power and ground
cables should be directly connected to the ELC-800r terminal strip.

The ELC-800r has a low water feature that incorporates a NC/NO relay located
inside the control unit. The relay is used to interrupt the power to a pump in case of a low
water situation or it can be wired to an alarm, light or sounder.

The ELC-800r has incorporated a 24VAC output and relay to allow for a
low water setting to shut off a circulation pump in a low water situation. A
24VAC contactor in line with the pump is needed and not supplied. Also
required is another sensing unit that will suit the needs of the body of
water.
The second sensing unit should be placed at chosen low water level and
adjusted. Once the sensor and contactor are in place and wired they can be
connected to the ELC-800r using the provided wiring diagram.

The ELC-800r has incorporated a 24VAC output and relay to allow for a
low water setting to turn on an alarm, light, or sounder in a low water
situation. A separate 24VAC alarm, light or sounder is needed for this
feature. Also required is another sensing unit that will suit the needs of the
body of water.
The second sensing unit should be placed at chosen low water level and
adjusted. Once the sensor and alarm, light, or sounder are in place and
wired they can be connected to the ELC-800r using the provided wiring
diagram.
