IMPORTANT INFORMATION
- This PCR-1 Z-SM/PCR-1 Z/PCR-2Z Class 2 power supply is specifically designed to supply 24V DC to power the PAL 4 Wire UL Listed LED Pool lights.
- The PCR-1 Z-SM/PCR-1 Z/PCR-2Z must be installed in accordance with the National Electrical Code by a Certified Electrician or Qualified Pool Technician.
NOTE: No bonding is required from this Class 2 power supply to the UL Listed PAL Pool Light fixtures as they are made of an all-plastic construction and comply with NEC Article 680 requirements.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
FOR PCR-1Z RGB OUTDOOR DRIVER
- Step 1. The PCR-1 Z-SM/PCR-1 Z/PCR-2Z Class 2 Power Supply is a Weatherproof construction (IP65) and should be mounted on a flat surface using the mounting legs on the enclosure with appropriate fixtures for the mounting substrate and in a suitable position to suit the intended location of the PAL 4 Wire LED Pool Lights and installed to comply with all the requirements of the National Electrical Code (NEC) and all relevant local codes and ordinances.
NOTE: The Driver Enclosure must be located a minimum distance of 5 feet measured horizontally from the inside wall of the pool and not less than 1 foot above the maximum pool water level measured to the top of the Driver Enclosure.
NOTE: The enclosure must be mounted using the mounting legs on the enclosure with the screw set supplied. If the enclosure is to be mounted on a concrete or block wall, mark out the mounting hole locations and drill 3/16″ holes using a masonry drill then fit the Star Plugs supplied into the holes and fix using the stainless steel screws supplied?? - Step 2. Using the conduit entry on the bottom (bottom-front on PCR-2Z) right-hand side of the PCR-1 Z-SM/PCR-1 Z/PCR-2Z (as shown) connect the 100-120V power supply to NEC code requirements.
- Step 3. Using the remaining conduit entries at the bottom of the PCR-1 Z-SM/PCR-1 Z/PCR-2Z (as shown}, connect the 4 core wire from the PAL 4 WIRE LED LIGHTS. Please ensure the 4 cores are connected to the correct terminals. 2 x output conduit entries are provided in the enclosure to connect up to 2 x PAL-LED 4 Wire Pool Lights.
- Step 4. The PCR-1 Z/PCR-2Z Driver / Receiver is factory-set to operate with the PCZ-2 Transmitter supplied. Just fit the 2 x batteries supplied with the PCZ-2.
The PCR-1 Z-SM does not operate with the PCZ-2 Transmitter.
Please refer to the information supplied with the PCZ-2 transmitter for full operating instructions and features of the system.
