GENERAL INFORMATION
Many of today’s pools and spas utilize the advantages of a single
electrical control panel, containing all the necessary components
for the safe, cost effective and automatic operation of a pool or spa.
Model RC2263E is designed to operate the shared equipment, like
the pump, filter and the heater of a Pool-Spa combination safely
from the spa side with only one air button. In addition, the Air
Blower of the SPA can be controlled by the same air button as
shown in the chart below.
The 24 hour timer turns ON the filter pump and automatically filters
and, if so set, heats the pool water on a daily schedule. In addition,
by the push of the #3 air button at the spa side, the Control turns
ON the pump, the heater and rotates the valves thus allowing the
water to circulate in the spa. The Control also features a selector
switch for the heater. The switch has three positions and it can be
set to hea
the pool to tw
tion disables the heater. the Control also has terminals for connecting a fr
trol logic board.
Model RC2263BE is the same as the one described above,
except it is built into an 8 circuit 100 Amp. sub-panel.

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.
The Control should not operate any equipment which would cause bodily injury or property damage should it be activated
6.
unexpectedly
IMPORTANT: High and low voltage conductors should not occupy the same conduits or compartments.
This Air Control can operate either a 120 volt or 240 volt, single or two speed pump, air blower, together with a gas
heater and up to three 24 volt valve actuators. It also has a connection for a freeze or heater protection device to turn
ON the pump if needed.

READ, FOLLOW AND SAVE THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL
INSTALLATION
1. Follow wiring diagram on Page 4 and prepare your installation
layout. Make sure only copper (solid or stranded) conductors are
used, properly sized and suitable for the installation. Each piece
of equipment must be grounded properly.
Neutral must always be connected to the white lead of
the control.
2. Hang Air Control on a flat vertical surface or other support,
using hardware suitable for the purpose. Make sure the air button
is within the range of the Air Control. NOTE: The optimum
range of this Air Control is 100 feet. However, factors beyond
control of the manufacturer (like the size of the air pump,
the I.D. of the air hose, etc.) will determine the actual distance
between the mechanism and the air pump.
3. Prepare the necessary conduit runs, including one for the
air hose, terminate them at both ends and pull in the conductors
as specified by the installation layout.
