Aqua Solar Digital Solar Control System The Aqua Solar Digital Solar Control System is a differential temperature control for solar heating of pools, spas, and hot tubs. The Aqua Solar is available in 3 models; AQ-SOL-LV, AQ-SOL-LV-TC and AQ-SOL-LV-SP. These models provide differential temperature control with an adjustable calibrated water temperature high limit. Both offer a built-in digital display for solar, water, and ambient temperature information as well as programmable set point temperature. Automatic nocturnal cooling (for pools that overheat in hot climates) and recirculate freeze protection functions can be enabled/disabled via internal jumpers. The AQ-SOL-LV-TC additionally provides a filter pump time clock, programmable in 15-minute intervals with multiple ON/OFF times. The AQ-SOL-LV-SP model provides a solar priority function-one of the optional high voltage relays can be used to remove power from the conventional heater whenever solar heating is available. This maximizes the heat contribution from solar. Front panel indicator LED's also provide immediate feedback of system state such as heating, cooling, and sensor fault.

Aqua Solar Digital Solar Control System
The Aqua Solar Digital Solar Control System is a differential temperature control for
solar heating of pools, spas, and hot tubs.
The Aqua Solar is available in 3 models;
AQ-SOL-LV, AQ-SOL-LV-TC and AQ-SOL-LV-SP.
These models provide differential
temperature control with an adjustable calibrated water temperature high limit.
Both
offer a built-in digital display for solar, water, and ambient temperature information as
well as programmable set point temperature.
Automatic nocturnal cooling (for pools
that overheat in hot climates) and recirculate freeze protection functions can be en-
abled/disabled via internal jumpers.
The AQ-SOL-LV-TC additionally provides a filter
pump time clock, programmable in 15-minute intervals with multiple ON/OFF times.
The AQ-SOL-LV-SP model provides a solar priority function—one of the optional
high voltage relays can be used to remove power from the conventional heater when-
ever solar heating is available.
This maximizes the heat contribution from solar.
Front
panel indicator LED’s also provide immediate feedback of system state such as heat-
ing, cooling, and sensor fault.
