INTELLICHEM® CHEMICAL CONTROLLER

INSTALLATION KIT INSTRUCTIONS

Installing the IntelliChem Tank with Pump (P/N 522472 & 522473)

1. Find a suitable location to secure the tank to the equipment pad. The
tank needs to be within 10’ of the IntelliChem Controller, 10’ of the return
plumbing, and away from equipment that may be damaged by the chemical
or vapor.

2. Secure the tank to the equipment pad with four bolts.

3. Cut off 1-2’ of tubing and connect the black suction fitting of the tank to the
inlet (right) of the pump. See Figure 1. Do not overtighten the nuts.

4. Install the injection fitting in the return plumbing, after all equipment.

5. Use the remaining tubing to connect the outlet (left) of the pump to the
injection fitting. Note: Do not overtighten the nuts.

Upgrading a Chemical Container with Pump Kit,
Using P/N 522474

1. Be sure the Chemical Container is secured to the equipment pad, and in a
suitable location within 10’ of the IntelliChem Controller.

2. Remove the four screws and block-off plate.

3. Install the motor shroud with four screws. See Figure 1.

4. Mount the pump on the motor shroud with four screws. See Figure 1.

5. Cut off 1-2’ of tubing and connect the black suction fitting of the tank to the
inlet (right) of the pump. See Figure 1. Note: Do not overtighten the nuts.

6. Install the injection fitting in the return plumbing, after all equipment.

7. Use the remaining tubing to connect the outlet (left) of the pump to the
injection fitting. Note: Do not overtighten the nuts.

Connecting the Pump to the IntelliChem Controller,
Using P/N 522478Z

1. Route the power cord(s) from the Pump(s) into the IntelliChem Controller
through the strain relief fitting(s) closest to the right hinge. Note: Do not

overtighten the nuts.

2. Plug the power cord for the Acid pump into the left connector labeled “PH”
on the 522478 daughter board. See Figure 2.

3. (Optionally) plug the power cord for the Chlorine pump into the right
connector labeled “ORP” on the 522478 daughter board. See Figure 2.

4. Loosen the 4 screws in the J8/J11 terminal blocks on the IntelliChem
Controller board.

5. Install the 522478 daughter board so that all four pins are in the correct
holes in the J8/J11 terminal blocks. Tighten the four screws. See Figure 3.

6. Unplug the red wire harness going to J10 of the IntelliChem Controller
board, and connect it to J10 on the 522478 daughter board. See Figure 4.

7. Plug the wire harness from J10* of the 522478 daughter board to J10 of the
IntelliChem Controller board. See Figure 4.
