Specifications

Installation Information

Disconnect all electrical power to the IntelliCenter Load Center or Power Center before opening the enclosure or installing the expansion card.

The 522039Z slides onto an available expansion-card connector on the IntelliCenter motherboard and is secured using the appropriate retaining screws.

If a personality card is installed, Pentair requires the personality card to occupy Slot 1. The Pool Cover Expansion Card can then be installed in an available expansion slot such as Slot 2, 3, or 4. If no personality card is installed, Slot 1 may also be used for the pool cover card.

The compatible pool cover controller connects to the Pool Cover 1 or Pool Cover 2 digital input terminals.
