Logix Series Controllers

Injector* Performance

*New injectors for high-efficiency regeneration sequence are standard with Logix Controllers. Actual injector performance is dependent on the resin used, tank geometry, elevated drain, etc. This injector data was taken using an empty tank (no resin). See the official PDF for detailed injector performance charts (Injector «F», «H», «L», «K», «G», «J»).

Transformer – All Controllers

  • Controller Operating Voltage: 12 VAC (Requires use of Pentair Water supplied transformer)
  • Input Supply Frequency: 50 or 60 Hz (Controller configuration dependent)
  • Motor Input Voltage: 12 VAC
  • Controller System Power Consumption: 3 W average
  • Transformer Output Voltage: 12 VAC 150 mA
  • Transformer Input Options: 230 VAC 50/60 Hz
  • Transformer Plug Options: United Kingdom Plug, Mainland Europe Plug
  • All Controllers require the use of a Pentair supplied transformer.
  • Additional transformers may be available – call for more information.
