CONNECTING A PUMP START RELAY.................................................................................
NOTE: Complete this section only if you have a
pump start relay installed. A pump start relay
is an electronic device that uses a current from the
controller to actuate a separate electrical circuit to
energize a pump to provide water to your system.
The controller should be mounted at least 15 feet (4.5m) away from both
the pump start relay and the pump. When a pump start relay comes on it
sends out surges that may potentially cause damage to a controller that
is mounted to close. When a pump is to be operated by the controller, a
pump start relay must be used. Hunter offers a full range of pump start
relays for most applications.
1. Route a wire pair from the pump relay into the controller housing.
2. Connect common wire to the screw slot C (Common) and the
remaining wire from the pump relay to the MV screw slot.
Relay current draw must not exceed .35 Amps. Do not connect
controller directly to pump – damage to controller can result.
