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.
