Product Overview

The Pentair IntelliChlor Salt Chlorine Generator Power Center | 520556 is the power supply and communication hub required for Pentair IntelliChlor salt chlorine generator systems. Designed for residential in-ground pool applications, this power center converts incoming AC power into the low-voltage DC power needed by the IntelliChlor salt cell to generate chlorine automatically.

This unit is ideal for replacing a failed or damaged IntelliChlor power center or for building a complete IntelliChlor salt system when paired with a compatible Pentair salt cell. The power center contains the transformer, fuse, and cell connection required to operate the IntelliChlor system. It can be wired for 110V or 220/230V AC applications and is designed to work with Pentair automation systems when properly installed.

Specifications

What’s Included

• Pentair IntelliChlor Power Center enclosure
• Internal transformer
• Fuse
• IntelliChlor cell connector plug
• Installation guide/manual

Salt cell is not included.

Warranty & Compatibility

Compatible Salt Cells

This power center is made for use with the following Pentair IntelliChlor salt cell models:

• IntelliChlor IC20
• IntelliChlor IC40
• IntelliChlor IC60
• IntelliChlor LT25
• IntelliChlor Plus40

The power center by itself is not a complete salt chlorination system. A compatible IntelliChlor salt cell is required for chlorine generation.

Installation Notes

Professional installation is strongly recommended. The power center must be wired to the pool pump power source so the IntelliChlor cell only operates when the pump is running. Proper bonding, grounding, and mounting requirements should always be followed.

Customer-Facing Q&A

Q: Is this a complete salt system?
A: No. This is the power center only. You will also need a compatible Pentair IntelliChlor salt cell to complete the system.

Q: Which salt cells work with this power center?
A: It is compatible with Pentair IntelliChlor IC20, IC40, IC60, LT25, and Plus40 salt cells.

Q: Can this replace my old IntelliChlor power center?
A: Yes, this is commonly used as a replacement power center for compatible Pentair IntelliChlor salt chlorine generator systems.

Q: Does this include the salt cell?
A: No. The salt cell is sold separately.

Q: Can this be wired for 110V or 220V?
A: Yes. The Pentair IntelliChlor Power Center can be wired for 110V or 220/230V AC applications.

Q: Should this be professionally installed?
A: Yes. Because this unit requires electrical wiring, grounding, bonding, and proper connection to the pool pump power source, professional installation is recommended.
