Installing the Temperature Sensors
1.
Select a section of pool pipe-work which
is in the shade and before
the pool pump
to attach brass the pool temperature sensor.
The sensor should be placed underground to
minimise heating by
the sun and air
.
Drill a hole in the pool pipework using an 11mm drill bit. A clean round
hole is essential - clean burrs from hole.
Using some silicon grease push the rubber grommet into the pool
pipework, then push in the brass sensor fitting carefully to lock it into
place. Push Black connector into correct socket marked BLACK on
underside of Solar Controller.
2.
Fit Roof Sensor Fitting securely underneath and in direct contact
with collector mat on roof. Run cable to solar controller and push red
connector into socket marked RED on underside of Solar controller.
NOTE:
If the roof sensor cable is too short, a 50 meter RCA roof cable is
available from your Davey dealer. (P/N M6522)
3.
Fit blank flow connector to the socket marked FLOW.
Congratulations! You are now the proud owner of the advanced SolarMatic Solar Pool Heating
Controller.
SolarMatic extends your swimming season and allows you get the most from your pool. SolarMatic
takes control of your solar heating system and captures the free heat generated by the sun on your
solar roof collector, and transfers it into your pool water, at practically no cost.

OPTIONAL PRESSURE SWITCH CABLE SYSTEM & CONNECTION:
Some solar heating installations use a “booster” pump to circulate pool water through the roof collector
system and do not have a separate solar circuit to and from the pool.
These installations require the optional pressure switch (P/N M6601), which will only allow the booster
pump to turn on if the main filtration pump is running and water is available to the booster pump.
Without this safety system, damage to the booster pump may result.
