Low Voltage Wiring
NOTE: There is a low voltage channel on the right side of the AquaRite S3 enclosure shown on page
9. All low voltage wiring that enters/exits the enclosure must run through this channel. There is a
foam gasket included with the AquaRite S3 that should be used to seal the channels’s exit after wir-
ing is complete. Do not run low v
oltage wiring through a knockout or with any high voltage wiring.
Smart Relay Wiring
Smart Relays rely on communication from the AquaRite S3. A Smart Relay comes with a 15ft 4
conductor cable and is wired to the RS-485 connector. Wire the cable as shown in the diagram. After
connecting the wires to the connector, run the communication cable through the low voltage Wiring
Channel as shown.
To ease wiring, the connector can be lifted off the onboard pins. Connect the Smart Relay commu-
nication wires to their proper screw terminals, then push the connector back onto the pins. For best
results, strip back leads 1/8” before inserting into the screw terminals.
Hayward Variable Speed Pump (VSP) Wiring
The Hayward TriStar 950, TriStar 900, Super Pump 700 and MaxFlo 500 pumps wire directly to the
RS-485 connector and will be fully controlled by the AquaRite S3 (schedules and speeds). Refer to
the VSP Communication Wiring table and diagrams on the following page for VSP communication
wiring instructions.
For Pentair VSP models, use a Hayward HLPMPCONV converter (sold separately).
Refer to the HLPMPCONV instructions for wiring information. After wiring, run the communication
cable through the low voltage Wiring Channel (same as Smart Relay above).
To ease wiring, the connector can be lifted off the onboard pins. Connect the VSP communication
wires to their proper screw terminals, then push the connector back onto the pins. For best results,
strip back leads 1/8” before inserting into the screw terminals.
