6. Betjeningsvejledning

Once properly installed and wired, the Intermatic PX600 transformer operates automatically. Apply power to the 120V input circuit. The transformer will then provide the selected low-voltage output to your connected pool/spa or landscape lights.

6.1 bindtage Valg

The PX600 offers multiple output voltage taps (12V, 13V, 14V). The appropriate tap should be selected during installation to compensate for voltage drop over long cable runs and to ensure optimal brightness for your specific lighting fixtures. Consult your lighting fixture's specifications for recommended voltage.

7. Vedligeholdelse

The Intermatic PX600 transformer is designed for minimal maintenance. Periodically inspect the unit for any signs of physical damage, corrosion, or loose connections. Ensure the enclosure remains sealed to prevent moisture ingress. Keep the area around the transformer clear of debris to allow for proper ventilation.

No user-serviceable parts are located inside the transformer. Do not attempt to open or repair the unit yourself.

8. Fejlfinding

8.1 Lights Not Functioning

• Tjek strømforsyningen: Verify that the 120V AC input power is active at the circuit breaker.
• Internal Protector Trip: The transformer has a built-in circuit protector that will open if an overload or short circuit occurs. If this happens, the power will be temporarily disconnected.
• Identify and Correct Overload/Short: Disconnect all loads from the transformer. Inspect your low-voltage wiring and fixtures for any shorts or overloads. Correct any issues found.
• Automatisk nulstilling: After correcting the fault, the internal protector will automatically reset after approximately 15 minutes, restoring power.
• Undersøg forbindelser: Sørg for, at alle ledningsforbindelser er sikre og fri for korrosion.

If the issue persists after following these steps, contact a qualified electrician or Intermatic customer support.
