IntelliChlor Electronic Chlorine Generator Installation and User’s Guide

System Specifications - 110 VAC and 230 VAC Wiring

Circuit Protection: 

Two-pole 20 AMP device at the electrical panel.

IntelliChlor Model CIC60P and CIC60S

Input: 95-130 VAC, 50/60 Hz, 220 Watts (2 AMP) or 220-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz, 220 Watts (1 AMP).

Output: 22-39 VDC @ 7.5 AMPS maximum from the Power Center.

Water flow: 25 gallons per minute minimum. 105 gallons per minute maximum. Maximum pressure: 75 psi

115 VAC Basic System Wiring with Pool Pump Timer and ORP

IMPORTANT: When using IntelliChlor with an IntelliTouch system, it is recommended to wire
the Power Center to the pump side of the relay located in the IntelliTouch Load Center. This
method does not require a ground fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI) to protect the circuit.

IntelliChlor (SCG) AC Wiring Instructions: 

 When using the IntelliChlor salt

chlorine generator and an IntelliFlo pump (or 2-speed pump) with  a Pentair

Water Pool and Spa

®

 IntelliTouch®, EasyTouch® or SunTouch® automation

control system , the IntelliChlor AC power center wires must be connected to

the PUMP SIDE OF THE MAIN FILTER PUMP RELAY located in the load/power

center  (see page 29 for diagram).  This ensures that the IntelliChlor cell

produces chlorine only when the main filter pump is on. This method does not

require a ground fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI) to protect the circuit.  Note: For

non-automation systems using a time clock, see diagram below.
