Temperature Sensors
Three sensors are included with the Aqua Plus 16v. A water sensor and an air sensor must be installed at all times
for proper operation. An additional supplied sensor can be used for either solar or dual equipment function. If both
solar
and
dual equipment functions are desired, an additional sensor will need to be purchased.
Water Sensor
This sensor is used to measure the pool/spa temperature and is installed in the filtration plumbing after the filter but
before either the solar or conventionally fueled heaters—refer to the plumbing overview diagram.
1. Drill a 3/8” (10mm) diameter hole in the PVC piping and remove all chips and burrs.
2. Insert sensor until O-ring collar sits flush on the hole.
3. Position hose clamp over the sensor and gently tighten until O-ring makes an adequate seal. Do not over-
tighten.
4. For maximum temperature accuracy, cover the sensor and 3” (6cm) of pipe on either side with insulation and
white paint.
Air Sensor
Mount the air sensor outdoors.
!
IMPORTANT: Mount the air sensor out of direct sunlight.
Solar Sensor
For solar applications, mount the sensor near the solar collector array so that it is exposed to the same sunlight as
the collectors (see page 9). Use additional cable (20 AWG) if necessary.
Dual Equipment Spa Sensor
For dual equipment applications (separate filter pumps and heaters for both the pool and the spa), mount the dual
equipment spa sensor after the spa filter but before the heater (see page 9). Use additional cable (20 AWG) if
necessary.
Chlorination Function
The Aqua Plus 16v includes a Turbo Cell, cell unions and flow switch for use with the chlorinator function. Refer
to pages 11 and 21 for plumbing and wiring instructions.
Optional AQL-CHEM ORP and pH Sensing Kit
The AQL-CHEM is an ORP and pH sensing kit for the Aqua Plus 16v. When used with the chlorination function,
the Aqua Plus 16v senses the pool's ORP and pH levels and generates the correct amount of chlorine to keep your
pool properly sanitized. Wiring and plumbing requirements for the AQL-CHEM should be considered before
installing the Aqua Plus 16v. Refer to the AQL-CHEM manual for specific installation information.
Optional AQL-COLOR-MODHV ColorLogic Network Module
Using the optional AQL-COLOR-MODHV network module, the Aqua Plus 16v can fully control the color,
speed, motion and brightness of Hayward ColorLogic Generation 4 pool and spa lights as well as provide pro-
grammable light shows. Refer to the AQL-COLOR-MODHV for detailed installation, wiring and operation infor-
mation.

NOTE: The configuration for Valve3 and Valve4 are identical. However, if Heater2 was enabled, then the Valve4 configuration
will not appear (a single relay is used to implement either the Heater2 function or the Valve4 function--it can not do both). For
PS-16, see aux logic on page 27 for control of Valves7, 8, 9 and 10.

Valve3 Name
The Pro Logic allows you to assign any one of a number of names (e.g. “Cleaner Valve, Waterfall
valve, Solar Valve, etc.) to each of the valve output control function. This will make the Pro Logic
much more user friendly to the homeowner when they want to turn various valves on or off or program
the timeclocks. A sheet of small name labels is included with the Pro Logic main unit and each remote
display/keypad so that the “Valve3” (and “Valve4”) pushbutton can be labeled the same as the name
that you have assigned.
Valve3 Function
Manual On/Off (default)
– the valve3 relay will alternate between turning on and off when the
VALVE3 button is pressed. There is no automatic control logic. The VALVE3 button can also be used
to turn the valve output on or off.
Countdown Timer
– the valve3 relay will turn on when the VALVE3 button is pressed and then will
turn off automatically after a programmed time (see Timers Menu in the Operations Manual). The
VALVE3 button can also be used to turn the output off.
Timeclock
– the valve turns on/off at the times set for the valve3 timeclock in the Timers Menu (see
Operations Manual). The valve3 button can also be used to turn the valve output on or off.
Solar
– the valve operates when the filter pump is running and solar heat is available and the water is
less than the desired temperature setting. Solar heating must be enabled in the “Solar Config. menu
for proper operation to occur.
In-Floor Cleaner
– the valve switches the water returning to the pool between the in-floor cleaner and
the normal return jets which facilitate efficient surface skimming. The valve will operate the in-floor
cleaner for the first half of each clock hour and then switch to the jets/skimming for the last half of the
hour.
Group
– the valve operates when the Group function is initiated and shuts off when the Group
function is terminated. See valve3 Group section for operation information for the Group function.
