CONTROL PANEL WITH DIGITAL TIME CLOCK FOR INDOOR/OUTDOOR USE
Suitable for Pool Equipment Control and for Direct Connection of Underwater Lights
ELECTRICAL RATINGS:
90 AMP. PER LEG, 180 AMP MAX., 120/240V OR 120/208V SINGLE PHASE
(THREE WIRE) A.C.
Digital Time Clock: See Rating Inside Enclosure Door
The short circuit current rating of this panel board is 10,000 symmetrical amperes.
Many of todays energy efficient pools and spas
utilize the advantages of a single electrical panel,
containing all the necessary controls for the safe,
efficient and automatic operation of the pool/spa
equipment. In addition, this panel can also be
used to control any outdoor equipment, sign or
pump within its rated capacity.
The all-weather enclosure contains a heavy-duty,
industrial grade Digital Time Clock and has
provisions to install switches or a GFCI
receptacle on the side as well as the inside.
The Digital Time Clock is designed to operate
any pump, within its rated capacity. However, if
protection to prevent dry start is required by the
pump manufacturer, it must be provided in
addition to this Control. Contact pump
manufacturer if not sure and/or for more details.

DANGER! TO AVOID 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 connected to it.

GENERAL INFORMATION INSTALLATION
1. Remove the two #10 hex head screws from the
back of the enclosure and attach mounting bracket
to enclosure.
2. Select the proper location for the Control Panel and
hang enclosure on a flat vertical surface or other
support, using hardware suitable for the purpose.
NOTE: The Panel will accept the main feed, either
through the 3/4-1 inch knockout at the bottom, back
or at the top, through a listed outdoor conduit hub,
mounted at the time of installation, utilizing the
dimple provided for drilling the pilot hole.
3. Prepare the necessary conduit runs, terminate them
at both ends and pull in the conductors as specified
by the installation layout.
4. Refer to Figure 1 below;
note that this enclosure
contains one Digital Time
Clock. To wire the panel,
follow the wiring diagram located inside the
enclosure door. Make sure that connections to
Digital Time Clock terminals are tight (25 lb.-in.
minimum) and insulation clears the pressure
plate-see illustration.
5. If required by the heater manufacturer, your new
Digital Time Clock includes a connection for a fire-
man switch. This switch only works in conjunction
with circuit #1(Load #1) on your Digital Time
Clock. Refer to pages 6 & 7 of your instruction
manual for connection information, and refer to page
28 for fireman switch programming information. Use
at least #18 AWG wiring with insulation rated 300
volt or higher. Some heaters may require a special
connecting harness, contact heater manufacturer for
details. Place heater ON/OFF switch on heater to ON
position.
6. If enclosure is used for direct connection of
underwater lights, refer to 1999 NEC 680-21(b),
2002 NEC 680-24(b) or CEC 68-060, 062 and 066
for further details.
7. To install additional wiring devices inside the
enclosure, first remove rectangular knock-
out(s) in dead front. Next, remove hex head
screws in back of enclosure and install stand-
offs* in place of screws. Attach wiring device to
stand-offs.
*Stand-offs are not furnished. Order 21T156A for a set of
four (4) stand-offs and mounting hardware.
8. If external bonding is required, install a bonding
lug at bottom of enclosure and bond installation
according to code requirements (Order 156T11047A
for Bonding Lug Kit).
9. Testing of the installation is optional and recom-
mended only if the desired loads are securely in
place and will not be damaged by this test:
a. Turn ON power at breaker panel.
b. Digital Time Clock display should fully illuminate
and then start to blink 12:00 a.m. Time clock will not
blink only if time has been maintained by internal
battery.
c. Push each of the ON/OFF buttons to verify
devices cycle on and off.
In case of unsatisfactory results, turn OFF power,
check your wiring, refer to Troubleshooting on Page 3.
10. Install front panel over wiring compartment.
The control is now ready for programming,
see OPERATION section on Page 4.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When installing and operating this Product and other associated equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed,
including the following:
1. Read and follow all instructions.
2. This Control must be installed by a qualified electrician, according to National and Local Electrical Codes.
3. Install this control not less than 5 feet (3 meters in Canada) from inside edge of pool. USE COPPER CONDUCTORS ONLY.
4. Do not exceed the maximum ratings of individual components, wiring devices, and current carrying capacity of conductors.
5. For Control grounding, bonding, installing and the wiring of underwater lights, refer to Article 680 of the National Electrical
Code or Article 68 of the Canadian Electrical Code.
6. The Control should not operate any equipment which would cause bodily injury or property damage should it be activated unexpectedly.

External Wired Remote Accessory
Part Number 133PE1484A
The New Intermatic Wired Remote
Control allows you to control your
Digital Time Clock from a
remote location. Included with
your Wired Remote Control is a
label arrangement allowing you to
identify each button specific to your Pool or spa
equipment pad. Your new wired remote control comes
standard with 100 foot of cable and is designed to slip
fit into any standard 1 1/2 conduit adapter. This re-
mote works in conjunction with the Digital Time Clock
and displays feedback information on the present state
of the pool or spa equipment pad. For more informa-
tion refer to instructions provided with the accessory.
Freeze Probe Accessory
Part Number 178PA28A
The New Intermatic Freeze Probe allows
you to protect your pool or
spa equipment during an
unexpected freeze condition.
The freeze probe comes with
a 10 foot cable and plugs into
the back of the new Digital
Time Clock. The Time Clock
can be programmed to turn on
each or all-individual loads at
any desired outside temperature.
Heater Protection (Fireman) Switch is
standard with each Digital Time Clock.
It comes standard with a Fireman Switch
connection for your pool or spa heater.
Simply connect the two wires from your
heater thermostat to the back of the digital
clock. The fireman switch is only
associated with circuit one on the digital
clock, therefore the filter pump should be
connected to circuit one. Program the time
desired for the cool down period and your
new digital clock will take over.
