Pentair SolarTouch Automatic Control Kit

Description

The SolarTouch Solar Control System offers full digital control for the most precise, efficient, swimming pool heating possible. The digital thermostat is set with the touch of a button and will monitor the temperature of your pool water and solar collectors.

• Digital calibration of water and solar temperature in 1° increments
• Integrates with IntelliFlo® and IntelliPro® variable speed pumps for unparalleled efficiency
• Set pool temperatures and solar temperature differentials with the touch of a button
• Solar valve automatically drains the solar collectors when pump shuts off
• Durable PTFE seal is maintenance free for years of dependable service
• LCD display provides sharp, clear readings
• LED indicator lights confirm SolarTouch is working; service indicator LED shows when attention is required
• Motorized valve actuator is built to last with sturdy steel gears; highly efficient low-voltage motor; service switch for flow direction
• Weatherproof composite enclosure
• Nocturnal cooling and recirculation freeze protection with filter-pump timer override

Automated Features

• Standard Functions: Digital monitoring and calibration of water and solar temperature in 1° increments with the push of a button providing clear readings on the LCD display screen.
• Freeze Protection: When the water temperature and the solar sensor temperature falls to 40° F (4° C) or below, the pool/spa water is automatically circulated through the system to prevent freezing. When the solar temperature sensor and or the water sensor reaches 42° F (6° C), or above, freeze protection will stop. In mild climates, freeze protection can help prevent solar collector damage.
• Nocturnal Cooling: The SolarTouch controller provides automatic nocturnal (nighttime) cooling during night time hours for pools that overheat in hot climates. When enabled, SolarTouch controller circulates relatively warmer pool water to the collector panels when the collector temperature and the pool temperature is hotter than the high limit setting. This process cools the pool water over time.
