SERVICE MANUAL
MODEL: PF1202T
TWO CIRCUIT POOL EQUIPMENT CONTROL
WITH FREEZE PROTECTION IN RAINPROOF ENCLOSURE
ELECTRICAL RATING: 3 HP MAX. - 240 VOLT, 60 HZ.
SUITABLE FOR POOL/SPA EQUIPMENT CONTROL
DANGER! To Reduce the Risk of Injury:
...do not permit children to operate the Control Unit or use the Pool/Spa unless they are closely supervised at all times.
...test GROUND FAULT protection regularly. If it fails to reset, DO NOT USE THE POOL or SPA! Contact a qualified
service technician.
...always disconnect electricity before servicing this control or the equipment(s) connected to it. THIS CONTROL IS NOT
TO BE USED AS A POWER DISCONNECT.
READ, FOLLOW & SAVE THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL
GENERAL INFORMATION
This Pool Equipment Control is designed to automatically operate the Filter Pump, Cleaner Pump
and also to provide freeze protection for the pool equipment. Nevertheless this product is not
intended to be a substitute for insulation, coverings, or maintenance.
THE FILTER PUMP TIME SWITCH is located in the upper left side of the enclosure and operates
the Filter Pump, as set by the trippers on the yellow dial, on a 24 hour schedule. For setting the
schedule, refer to page 3 of this Manual.
THE CLEANER PUMP TIME SWITCH is located in the upper right side of the enclosure and
operates the Cleaner Pump (Booster Pump). The trippers of this
Time Switch should be set so that the operation of the
Cleaner Pump falls within the operation of the
Filter Pump. To avoid equipment damage, the two
Time Switches are interlocked and the Cleaner
Pump would not operate unless the Filter Pump
is already operating.
THE FREEZE PROTECTION THERMOSTAT is
located in the lower left side of the enclosure
and turns ON the Filter Pump when the air
temperature (where the Control Panel is located)
drops below the temperature set by the dial
(between 32˚F and 45˚F).
