Hayward Aqua Plus Controls plus Chlorination Model: PL-PLUS Operation - Page 4

System Overview The Hayward Aqua Plus is a multifunction pool controller used to fully manage your pool/spa system. The Aqua Plus can control pumps, valves, lighting, heaters, and chlorination. Although the Aqua Plus is easy to use, it is important to completely read through this operating manual before attempting to operate the control.

Aspects of the Aqua Plus that pertain to system setup are not covered in this manual. Automation The Aqua Plus can control up to 4 high voltage (120/240V) pieces of equipment, up to 3 automatic valve actuators, and a conventional and solar heater. Both manual and automatic (programmed) operation are available. All of the control functions can be programmed at a display/keypad which is part of the main unit (typically located near the pool equipment) or at one or more remote display/keypads. Chlorination With the use of the included Turbo Cell and flow switch, the Aqua Plus is also an automatic chlorine generation system for pool and/or spa sanitization. When enabled (see Configuration Menu), this operation requires a low concentration of salt (sodium chloride) in the pool/spa water. The Aqua Plus automatically converts the salt into free chlorine which kills bacteria and algae in the pool/spa. Chlorine will revert back to sodium chloride after killing bacteria. These reactions will continuously recycle, virtually eliminating the need to add sanitizing chemicals to your pool/spa. The only time you may need to add more salt to the pool/spa is when water is replenished due to backwashing, draining, or splashing (not evaporation). 1 Flow Switch Flow AQL-CHEM Sensing Kit). The Aqua Plus will refer to these levels to determine how much chlorine to generate (ORP) and, if using an AQL-CHEM2 dispense Refer to the AQL-CHEM manual for specific information akbito,uhtothwesmeulecvheClsOas2 or acid well as to dispense (pH). the recommended ranges. No function Move to previous/next menu item This display will be shown only if the chlorinator is enabled. The current status of the flow switch is displayed. There is a short delay when transitioning from flow to no-flow and a longer delay on the transition from no-flow to flow. The delay time is displayed.

If this temperature is not correct then check the placement of the sensor. If the problem is not placement related, then the sensor will, most likely, require replacement. If the display is "Open Circuit" or "Short Circuit" then check the wiring to the sensor and also make sure that the wires are secure in the terminal block in the Aqua Plus main unit. if EcoStar VSPs are detected VSP Speed/Power ± to view Filter Push to view the actual speed and power reported by the VSP Move to previous/next menu item No function Move to previous/next menu item 34
