Once a suitable location for the power supply has been selected, use 2 - #8 screws to attach
power supply to a wall, fence or post etc (using wall plugs if necessary).
See actual size template on back page for mounting screw position.
Connecting “Power Supply” to Power Supply (Line Voltage)
IMPORTANT: It is essential that your ECO-matic gets power ONLY WHEN THE FILTER PUMP
IS ‘ON’ and water is flowing through the ‘Cell’. The power supply to the ECO-matic power
supply must therefore be controlled by the same switch or timing device which controls
power to the filter pump.
Voltage - Your ECO-matic power supply has been designed to operate on 220/240v AC.
Cord Connected Power Supplies - UL and C-UL Listed power supp lies will not be fitted with a
power cord. Refer to “Hard Wiring Power Supply” below.
Power supplies with cords should be connected as follows - Cord wires will generally be
BLACK, WHITE and GREEN, or BROWN, BLUE and GREEN.
For 220/240V units, connect Black and White or Brown and Blue to load, Green to Ground.
Simply put, the power supply cord wires should be connected to the same terminals as the filter pump
– to insure that the power supply receives the same voltage as the filter pump, and is switched ON
and OFF coincidentally with the filter pump.
For Hard Wiring Power Supply. (refer Sketch 4 on page 11)
Refer to IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS at front of these instructions.
De-energize power supply circuit before connection to power supply.
Remove the ‘knock-out’ in the base of the power supply (if not al ready removed). The knock-out hole
size will suit a standard conduit fitting.
Open the power supply (see instructions below),
remove attached cord if necessary and connect
replacement power supply wire s to terminal bl ock and GROUND terminal (marked with stan dard
GROUND symbol).
Bonding Lug Connection
The power supply comes with Bonding Lugs (in Cana da two Bonding Lugs located externally on the
side of the power supply) they m ust be connected to the local common bonding grid ( which includes
all metal parts of the swimming pool structure and to all electrical equipment, metal conduit and metal
piping) in the area of the equipment, using either insulated or bare #8 AWG copper conductor.
