INSTALLATION AND EQUIPMENT RELATED
Installation of all MINERAL SPRINGS
Pool Pilot Digital models:
When installing and using your Pool Pilot
Digital
Control Box, basic safety precautions must always be
followed, including the following:
1. Follow all aspects of the local and National Electrical Code(s) when installing your Control Box.
2. During installation, mount your Control Box to ensure the least amount of direct exposure to rain, garden sprinkler water,
direct sunlight or any corrosive environment.
3. DANGER – Risk of electrical shock. Install Control Box at least 3 m (10 ft.) for 115VAC Units, from the inside wall
of the pool or spa using non-metallic plumbing. 1.5 m (5 ft.) minimum distance for 230VAC Units.
4. All field-installed metal components such as rails, ladders, drains or similar hardware within 3 m (10 ft.) of the spa or hot
tub shall be bonded to the equipment grounding bus with copper conductors not smaller than 8.4 mm² (No. 8 AWG) in the
U.S.A. and 6.3mm² (No. 6 AWG) in Canada.
5. WARNING – Maintain water chemistry in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions.
6. DANGER – To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit children to use this product unless they are closely supervised
at all times. Children should not use spas, hot tubs or pools without permanent adult supervision.

1 A wire connector is provided on your Pool Pilot
Digital
to connect a minimum 8.4 mm² (No. 8 AWG) in the U.S.A. and
6.3mm² (No.6 AWG) in Canada solid copper bonding conductor between this unit and any metal equipment, metal
enclosures of electrical equipment, metal water pipe or conduit within 1.5 m (5 ft.) of the unit.
2 A bonding terminal is located inside your Pool Pilot
Digital
. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this terminal must be
connected to the grounding means provided in the electrical supply panel with a continuous copper wire equivalent size to
the circuit conductors supplying your Pool Pilot
Digital
.
3 A disconnection device from the power source, with a contact separation of at least 3mm (0.12 in.) in all poles, must be
incorporated in the fixed wiring for permanently wired units.
4 The input voltage to the Pool Pilot
Digital
must match the 115/230VAC jumper terminals on the Circuit board, marked
“TRANSFORMER PRIMARY”, shown on Page 4.
