Personality Kit IntelliTouch Pool Spa Shared i9+3 made by Pentair 521221
The?Pentair 521221 IntelliTouch i9+3 Personality Kit?is designed for a swimming pool and spa application where the two bodies of water have a shared equipment set (Pump, Filter and Heater shared by Pool and Spa). The Personality Kit is the hardware that controls the IntelliTouch System’s functions and operational options. The i9+3 Kit controls the swimming pool filter/pump plus 8 auxiliary items (lights, blowers and additional pumps) and allows for the convenience of motorized valves for water flow separation between your swimming pool and spa.
Purchasing a Personality Kit is the second of the three step order process for an IntelliTouch automation system. Step 1 is selecting an IntelliTouch Load Center or Power Center which is available with or without an IntelliChlor Salt Chlorinator Transformer. The 3rd step is selecting an Interface Device or Remote. These are available as wireless remotes, indoor hard-wired controls and even computer or phone operated Screen Logic devices.
There are several IntelliTouch Personality Kit options and each provides you with complete swimming pool and spa controls that are fully programmable. Each circuit has a countdown timer plus the ability to run on-time-use programs. They also include a salt generation interface for the most popular salt chlorinators, swimming pool and spa colored lighting effect and solar control capabilities. Several add-on options are also available including light dimming, spa-side remotes, valve actuators, smart home interface software and additional indoor hard-wired or wireless control panels.
Load or Power Center
- Load Center: Provides a larger footprint (26" H x 17" W x 5-1/4D) Includes built-in sub panel
(150 AMPS) capable of holding up to eight 1breakers. Also includes five 25 AMP three HP
relays, 110/240 V transformer with secondary side circuit protection. Multiple knockouts for
different sizes of conduit are supplied as well as a GFCI side knockout. The Load Center provides
ample space for all high and low voltage wiring needs. - Power Center: Offers a smaller footprint (20" H x 17" W x 5-1/4D) than the Load Center. The
Power Center does not include a circuit breaker base. Users should choose this enclosure if they
already have existing circuit breakers/sub-panel for their equipment.
IntelliTouch Personality Kits
There are several types of IntelliTouch control systems available for different swimming pool/spa
configurations:
- Shared Equipment: Pool and spa combinations with shared filtration system Pool owners
can enjoy the convenience of motorized valves for water flow separation between swimming pool and spa.
The Personality Kit models are:- i5+3 (P/N 521219) Four auxiliary circuits plus filter pump operation (create a Feature
circuit for valve actuators without using an existing output auxiliary circuit, and special
light functions for color lighting). Five relays are included in the Load Center. - i7+3 (P/N 521220) Six auxiliary circuits plus filter pump operation and the +3 option
(create a Feature circuit for valve actuators without using an existing output auxiliary
circuit, and special light functions for color lighting). Two relays are included in the kit
and five in the Load Center. - i9+3 (P/N 521221) Eight auxiliary circuits plus filter pump operation and the +3 option
(create a Feature circuit for valve actuators without using an existing output auxiliary
circuit, and special light functions for color lighting). Four relays are included in the kit
and five in the Load Center.
- i5+3 (P/N 521219) Four auxiliary circuits plus filter pump operation (create a Feature
- Dual Equipment: Pool and Spa with Dual Sets of Equipment The IntelliTouch i10+3D
(P/N 521222) is designed to operate two sets of swimming pool equipment. Each set of a equipment (Pool or
Spa) can control one temperature setting.
This IntelliTouch Personality Kit can control up to 10
pumps and/or lighting circuits, plus two heater circuits. The Personality Kit includes, eight auxiliary
circuits plus a filter pump.
The +3 option (create a Feature Macro circuit for valve actuators without using an existing output
auxiliary circuit). Five relays are included in the kit and five in the Load Center. You can create a
Feature circuit for valve actuators without using an existing output auxiliary circuit, and special
light functions for color lighting. - Single Equipment: Pool Only or Spa Only Applications The IntelliTouch i5S+3 (P/N 521219)
and i9+3S provide advanced automation for a single body of water. The i5+3S (P/N 521223) and
i9+3S (P/N 521224) Personality Kits includes four auxiliary circuits plus filter pump operation. Five
relays are included in the Load Center. The i9+3S Personality Kits includes eight auxiliary circuits
plus filter pump operation and the +3 option (create a Feature Macro circuit for valve actuators
without using an existing output aux circuit). Four relays are included in the kit and five in the Load
Center. You can create a Feature circuit for valve actuators without using an existing output
auxiliary circuit, and special light functions for color lighting. This model also allows HI-TEMP and
LO-TEMP settings.
IntelliTouch Accessory Power Center Expansion Kits
- Expansion Kits: Models i5X (P/N 521225) and i10X (P/N 521226), offer five or ten additional
Auxiliary Circuits for systems i9+3, i9+3S and i10+3D. Each IntelliTouch Expansion Kit requires a
Load Center (P/N 521213) or Power Center (P/N 521214). Up to three Expansion Kits and Load or
Power Centers may be added to a system, for control of up to 38 Auxiliary Circuits (40 auxiliary
circuits for i10+3D).
