Figure 8. Field Wiring Connections (LD).

Figure 9. Time Clock Wiring.

To install a time clock auxiliary switch into the

heater wires (see Figure 9):
1.

Remove heater door.

2.

Remove the factory installed wire between

terminals 1 and 2 on the terminal strip (see Figure

9).

3.

Connect the wires from the time clock auxiliary

switch to the two terminals. Use American Wire

Gage (AWG) No. 14 gauge stranded copper wire

with a temperature rating of 221°F (105°C) or

greater.
The length of the wire between the heater and the

time clock should not exceed 10-15 feet (4.57 m). The

contact points of the time clock switch should be silver,

or a low resistance alloy.

2F-3. Remote Operation

(Model LD Only)

The Laars Lite 2 pool/spa heater controls can

be wired for remote operation. The CS-02 remote

control permits switching from one temperature

controller to the other and turning the heater on and

off from a remote location. The CS-04 includes the

same features as the CS-02 plus a remote tempera-

ture controller. Contact Waterpik Laars for further

information. Reference part numbers CS-02 and

CS-04.

An interrupt (on/off) type remote can be

connected by removing the jumper wire on the terminal

block located in the control compartment (see Figure 6)

and connecting the two wires from the remote to the

two terminals on the terminal block. This type of

remote control will turn the heater on or off, but will

not switch between the two temperature controllers on

the temperature control panel or allow for temperature

adjustments.

To connect a 3-wire remote (not supplied by

Waterpik Laars) to a Laars Lite 2 LD heater, order a

wire harness assembly (part No. E0120000) which

connects to the temperature control panel. Installation

instructions are included with the wire harness assem-

bly.

Consult with Waterpik Laars Service Department

with questions about installing remotes other than

Waterpik Laars.

2G. Water Flow System

2G-1. Flange Installation

The heater has 2" NPT universal header cou-

plings. You can connect threaded 2" NPT iron pipe,

unthreaded 1-1/2" iron pipe, 1-1/2" or 2" copper pipe

without an adapter (see Figure 10).

Plastic piping (PVC Schedule 40) can be con-

nected to the heater if local codes allow it, by using the

CPVC nipples included with your heater.

To install plastic piping (see Figure 11):

1.

Remove CPVC nipples from plastic bag.

2.

Screw CPVC nipples into metal flange until tight,

using teflon tape on plastic threads.

3.

Attach PVC plumbing to CPVC pipes using PVC

to CPVC cement only.
