The Aqua Logic is a large, multifunction, high voltage control
system. For safety reasons, it is very important that the Aqua Logic be
installed per NEC and local electrical codes. In addition, the Aqua
Logic must be configured (programmed) to control the particular
equipment on your pool. A Gold</> line Authorized Pool Builder or Dealer will be able to
help you determine which model is best suited to control the equipment
on your pool. The AQL-P-4 is the lowest cost entry level system has 4
high voltage relays (to control high voltage equipment such as pumps or
lights), 3 valve actuators, and 1 heater. Wired in-house remotes and a
wireless spa-side remote are available for use with the "P-4" unit.
Wireless wall-mount remotes and wireless table-top remotes are only
available for the "PS-x" series. The "P-4" system can be used on a pool
only system or on a pool/spa combination that share a single filter pump
and filter.
The AQL-PS-4, AQL-PS -8, and AQL-PS-16 systems are usually used on
pool/spa combination systems. They can be programmed to operate systems
that share a single pump and filter or they can operate complete dual
equipment. The last number in the model is the number of high voltage
relays. All "PS-x" systems can control up to 2 conventional heaters
(gas or heat-pump) plus solar. The "PS-4" and "PS-8" systems also
control up to 4 valve actuators (2 for pool/spa suction and return plus
2 additional for general purpose use). The "PS-16" controls up to 8
valve actuators. Goldline's complete line of wired and wireless remote
display/keypads and the wireless spa-side remote are available for all
"PS-x" systems.
All Aqua Logic models are designed for easy upgrade to electronic (salt)
chlorination.
All Aqua Logic models can be configured to control 2-speed filter
pumps. Unlike other pool automation controls, no special relays are
required. However, the 2-speed filter pump will require the use of 2 of
the Aqua Logic's high voltage relays. The installation manual contain
complete instructions for configuring 2-speed pump operation and it is
very important the instructions be followed in order to prevent damage
to either the pump or control. Separate high speed and low speed time
periods can be programmed and also the you can manually control the pump
with a single button: Push once to turn the pump on in high speed mode,
push again to switch to low speed (the pump must run a minimum of 3
minutes at high speed in order to properly prime), and finally push the
button again to turn the filter pump off.
The Aqua Logic can turn various outputs on when freezing
temperatures are detected. This function is fully programmable
including which outputs will turn on and also the temperature
threshold. This freeze protection is normally adequate for area that
experience infrequent freezing conditions with temperatures that don't
dip to far below 32ºF (0ºC). For all other systems, the pools should be
shut down per normal procedures for the winter.
This can easily be accomplished by enabling the "interlock"
feature while configuring the control logic for the cleaner pump relay.
"Interlock" will automatically turn the relay off when the filter pump
is off; during the first 3 minutes of filter pump operation (while the
filter pump is priming); during spa-only or spa spillover operation; and
also for 3 minutes when the solar heating turns on (to prevent the air
that is being purged from the solar panels to cause the cleaner pump to
lose its prime). Once this function in programmed as part of the system
configuration, you'll never have to worry again!
Yes, all models are compatible with optional wired remote
display/keypads designed to be mounted on a wall inside the house. Up
to 3 of these remotes can be wired up to 500" away from the pool
equipment pad. In addition, the "PS-x" models also have optional
wireless wall-mount and wireless table-top display/keypads. The
table-top unit has rechargeable batteries that make it fully
portable--it can be temporarily taken outside near the pool but it is
not waterproof and must be protected from splashing and rain. All Aqua
Logic display/keypads allow you to see the complete status of your
pool/spa, program automatic features, or manually override any program
with the simple press of a button.
Yes, all models are compatible with optional wireless spa-side
remotes (AQL-SS-RF). These are remotes are designed to be left in the
spa--they're waterproof and they float! You can manually control the
filter pump, valves, lights and 2 auxiliary function from this remote.
In addition, the "PS-x" models also have optional wireless table top
display/keypad with rechargeable batteries that make it fully
portable--it can be temporarily taken outside near the pool but it is
not waterproof and must be protected from splashing and rain. The Aqua
Logic table-top display/keypad allows you to see the complete status of
your pool/spa, program automatic features, or manually override any
program with the simple press of a button.
Yes, all Aqua Logic models have the built-in electronics
necessary --simply purchase the optional AQL-CL kit consisting of the
Turbo Cell and flow switch and your Aqua Logic system will supply all of
the chlorine needs for your pool (up to 40,000 gallons).
Yes, if your pool is larger than the rated 40,000 gallon
capacity, additional Aqua Rite
Electronic Chlorine Generators can be wired to the filter pump relay.
Each Aqua Rite chlorinator will sanitize an additional 40,000 gallons.
If you need help determining the gallons of your pool
| Use the formulas below to calculate your pool's
Gallons/Liters. |
|
Area = (L x W) (R x R x 3.14)
Gallons = area x average depth x 7.48
Liters = Gallons x 3.785 |
|
Area = R x R x 3.14
Gallons = area x average depth x 7.48
Liters = Gallons x 3.785 |
|
Area = (A + B) x L x 0.45 (approx.)
Gallons = area x average depth x 7.48
Liters = Gallons x 3.785 |
|

Area = A x B x 3.14
Gallons = area x average depth x 7.48
Liters = Gallons x 3.785 |

No and no. The high voltage outputs for controlling pool
automation are in addition to the heater and chlorinator functions.
The AQL-P-4 model can control a single conventional heater (gas
or heat-pump). The AQL-PS-x models can all control up to 2 conventional
heaters. All Aqua Logic systems can also programmed to control a solar
pool heating system in addition to the conventional heaters.
The Aqua Logic can be programmed for separate pool and spa temperatures
for each heater. Also each heater can be programmed "OFF". A typical
use for these feature might be a pool/spa combination system where the
gas heater is used to rapidly heat the spa (the gas heater is programmed
"OFF" for pool operation) while the heat-pump is used to economically
heat the pool (the heat-pump is programmed "OFF" for spa operation).
The Aqua Logic is designed with flexibility to allow you to control your
pool/spa almost any way you can imagine.
</>
The programmable "heater cool-down" function will keep the filter pump
running for a short period after the heaters) turn on to allow the
heater core to cool down to air temperature.
For pools that are being heated by heat-pumps, the Aqua Logic can be
programmed with the "heater extend" feature that will keep the filter
pump running past its normal turn-off time if the pool is not up the
desired temperature. This will keep the heat-pump working as long as is
required in order to heat the pool.Yes, the Aqua Logic can c
Control solar heating systems that utilize either a valve (you will
need to purchase a valve actuator) or a booster pump. Individual
temperature settings can be programmed for the pool and spa. In
addition, the Aqua Logic can be configured with advanced solar control
features such as "solar extend" that will keep the filter pump running
at the end of the normal filtration time if solar heat is still
available; and "solar priority" that will automatically disable the
conventional heater's) when solar is available in order to ensure that
solar handles the majority of the heating load.
