All electrical work must be performed by a licensed electrician and conform to all national, state,
and local codes. When installing and using this electrical equipment, basic safety precautions
should always be followed, including the following:
DANGER: To reduce the risk of injury, do not remove the suction fittings of your spa or hot tub.
Never operate a spa or hot tub if the suction fittings are broken or missing. Never replace a
suction fitting with one rated less than the flow rate marked on the equipment assembly.
WARNING: Prolonged immersion in hot water may induce hyperthermia. Hyperthermia occurs
when the internal temperature of the body reaches a level several degrees above the normal
body temperature of 98.6°F. The symptoms of hyperthermia include dizziness, fainting,
drowsiness, lethargy, and an increase in the internal temperature of the body. The effects of
hyperthermia include: 1) unawareness of impending danger; 2) failure to perceive heat; 3)
failure to recognize the need to exit spa; 4) physical inability to exit spa; 5) fetal damage in
pregnant women; 6) unconsciousness resulting in a danger of drowning.
WARNING: To Reduce the Risk of Injury —
The water in a spa should never exceed 104°F (40°C). Water temperatures between 100°F •
(38°C) and 104°F (40°C) are considered safe for a healthy adult. Lower water temperatures are
recommended for young children and when spa use exceeds 10 minutes.
Since excessive water temperatures have a high potential for causing fetal damage during •
the early months of pregnancy, pregnant or possibly pregnant women should limit spa water
temperatures to 100°F (38°C).
Before entering a spa or hot tub, the user should measure the water temperature with an •
accurate thermometer since the tolerance of water temperature-regulating devices varies.
The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication before or during spa or hot tub use may lead to •
unconsciousness with the possibility of drowning.
Obese people and people with history of heart disease, low or high blood pressure, •
circulatory system problems, or diabetes should consult a physician before using a spa.
People using medication should consult a physician before using a spa or hot tub since some •
medication may induce drowsiness while other medication may affect heart rate, blood
pressure, and circulation.
WARNING: Risk of electric shock – Install the control center at least five (5) feet (152.4cm)
from the inside wall of the pool and/or hot tub using non-metallic plumbing. Canadian
installations must be at least three (3) meters from the water.
• Children should not use spas or hot tubs without adult supervision.
Do not use spas or hot tubs unless all suction guards are installed to prevent body and hair •
entrapment.
People using medications and/or having an adverse medical history should consult a •
physician before using a spa or hot tub.
People with infectious diseases should not use a spa or hot tub.•
To avoid injury, exercise care when entering or exiting the spa or hot tub.•
Do not use drugs or alcohol before or during the use of a spa or hot tub to avoid •
unconsciousness and possible drowning
Pregnant or possibly pregnant women should consult a physician before using a spa or hot •
tub.
Water temperature in excess of 100°F (38°C) may be injurious to your health.•
Before entering a spa or hot tub measure the water temperature with an accurate •
thermometer.
Do nut use a spa or hot tub immediately following strenuous exercise.•
Prolonged immersion in a spa or hot tub may be injurious to your health.•
Safety 3
Do not permit any electric appliance (such as a light, telephone, radio, or television) within 5 •
feet (1.5m) of a spa or hot tub.
The use of alcohol, drugs or medication can greatly increase the risk of fatal hyperthermia in •
hot tubs and spas.
Water temperature in excess of 100°F (38°C) may be hazardous to your health.•
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electrical shock, connect the grounding terminal in the
metal enclosure to the grounding terminal of your electric service or supply panel with a
continuous copper conductor having green insulation and one that is equivalent in size to the
circuit conductors supplying this equipment. In addition, a second wire connector should be
bonded with a no. 8 AWG (4.115mm) copper wire to any metal ladders, water pipes, or other
metal within five (5) feet (1.52m) of the tub.
WARNING: A ground-fault circuit-interrupter must be provided if this device is used to control
underwater lighting fixtures. The conductors on the load side of the ground-fault circuitinterrupter shall not occupy conduit, boxes or enclosures containing other conductors unless
the additional conductors are also protected by a ground-fault circuit-interrupter. Refer to
local codes for complete details.

The Intermatic Multi-Wave Pool/Spa PE653RC Wireless Control System brings wireless control to
a new level of simplicity and affordability. The following features make the system distinctive:
Easy to Use — with simple, push button controls and a clear, easy-to-read display panel•
Everything You Need — includes the functionality and control called for in nearly every •
installation.
Dependable — with Z-Wave•
inexpensive repeaters that plug into available electrical outlets to help extend the RF signal
range of the entire system. Z-Wave technology eliminates intermittent signal problems
experienced with many other systems.
Cost Efficiency — a superior system, easier to install and maintain, with better •
dependability, and at a cost that’s competitive with any other system available.
The standard configuration for the Multi-Wave PE653RC Pool/Spa Wireless Control System
configuration is shown in Figure 1-1. You can order individual components for a custom
configuration or system as indicated.
Receiving Device (PE653)
®
technology that lets you expand your system with
Two-wire connection (RS485) for
control of variable-speed motors
Antenna can be remotely located
using a Standard Cat 5 Ethernet
cable with RJ45 plugs.
Internal selector switch for
120 / 240 VAC operation
Spare 0.10 Amp Fuse
Offers timer capability and can
control up to five preprogrammed
configurable circuits.
Metal Indoor/outdoor enclosure
provides for easy and secure
mounting and a large space for
conduit wire connections.
Terminals for two-wire
connections to remote
temperature sensors
Weatherproof outdoor enclosure
can be mounted directly to an
existing enclosure.
Approved snap-in wiring
separator for use with low
voltage heater control circuit
Hand-Held Controller (PE953).
Additional units can be
ordered separately.
The main function of the Hand-Held Controller is to transmit user
commands to the PE653 Receiving Device, PE650 Receiving Device, and/
or Z-Wave home control devices, and to display the status of the installed
equipment.
The unit floats if thrown in the pool or spa, is water-submersible, shock
resistant, and requires three (3) AA batteries. Expected battery life is about
one year in typical use.
When the components of a specific system are linked together into
a network, unique network ID codes supplied by the PE953 prevent
unauthorized use of the system by neighboring systems.
24-Volt Valve Actuator (PE24VA)
Designed with quality in mind, Intermatic’s 24-volt valve actuators
provide reliable control of 2-way and 3-way diverter valves for pool/
spa combinations and water features. The water flow can be altered
for specific applications through the adjustable cam, which rotates
diverter valves to multiple degree settings. The cam settings can be
easily adjusted by simply removing the lid. These valve actuators are
compatible with all pool/spa valves currently offered in the industry and
will retrofit into all pool/spa control systems.

24VAC Input Voltage•
Automates compatible diverter valves for •
pool/spa combos
Adjustable cam rotates diverter valves to •
multiple degree settings
Designed to operate most 2-way and 3-way diverter valves •
Shipping Weight - 3 lbs. (1.4 kg) •
Agency Approval - CSA/C-US•
Water Temperature Sensor (PA122)
The Intermatic Water Sensor (PA122) monitors both pool and spa water
temperature, depending on the position of the diverter valves. Installation is
necessary for the thermostatic control to work. The sensor can be ordered
separately.
