Glossary

Control Panel: The EasyTouch control panel with flexible hinge. Installed in upper portion of EasyTouch load center to control the EasyTouch pool and spa system.

EMI (Electromagnetic interference) filter: Protective circuit element that must be used between the IntelliChlor transformer and supply lines.

High Voltage Panel/Compartment: Removable panel for the high voltage compartment of EasyTouch load center. The high voltage wiring including circuit breakers, relays, GFCI and optional IntelliChlor transformer/filter.

Indoor Control Panel: This 9 or 13 button remote controller with LCD (liquid crystal display) is wired to the motherboard in the EasyTouch load center. The control panel can be wall mounted inside a house to control the EasyTouch system.

IntelliChlor: Electronic salt chlorinator. Uses a process known as electrolysis to produce sodium hypochlorite (liquid chlorine) from a low concentration of salt added to the pool water. Model IC 20 Cell (P/N 520554) for pools up to 20,000 U.S. gallons (75 liters) and model IC 40 Cell (P/N 520555) for pools up to 40,000 U.S. gallons (151 liters).

iS4: Four function spa-side remote. Spa wall or deck mounted.

Load Center: Metal enclosure with power relays, transformer, and circuit breakers. Used for distributing power for controlling EasyTouch Systems. Also known as the “sub-panel.”

Low Voltage Compartment: Top compartment of EasyTouch load center for all low voltage wiring.

Low Voltage Raceway: Vertical space in the left side of EasyTouch load center for low voltage cabling.

Motherboard: The circuit board mounted behind the EasyTouch control panel.

Relay Circuits: The circuits that control the relays on the motherboard. Connectors on top edge of the circuit board.

Screw Terminal Connector: Removable connector that may attach to circuit board with multiple sockets (anywhere from 2 to 6) to receive wires from controllers and sensors; wires held by screw terminals; multiple wires of a small enough gauge (usually 22 AWG) may be coupled to a single socket of a terminal connector.

Salt Chlorine Generator (SCG): Automated pool chlorinator that sanitizes using salt water (see IntelliChlor).

Transceiver: Used by the EasyTouch wireless control panel. Circuit board with attached antenna that can send and receive radio frequency (wireless) transmissions.
