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.
