4. Opsætning og installation
This section outlines the general procedure for replacing the Jandy 7790 Temperature Sensor. Specific steps may vary based on your existing pool/spa control system configuration. Refer to your system's main manual for detailed wiring diagrams.
4.1. Forberedelse
- Sluk for strømmen: Locate the main circuit breaker for your pool/spa equipment and turn off all power. Verify that the system is completely de-energized.
- Identify Sensor Location: The temperature sensor is typically installed in a dedicated port on the plumbing near the heater, or in an air/solar collector.
4.2. Udskiftning af sensor
- Fjern den gamle sensor: Carefully loosen any retaining nuts or clamps securing the old sensor. Gently pull the sensor out of its housing. Be prepared for a small amount of water to escape if replacing a water sensor.
- Afbryd ledninger: Open the control panel of your pool/spa system. Locate the terminals where the old sensor's wires are connected (typically labeled 'WATER', 'AIR', or 'SOLAR' SENSOR). Note the wire connections (e.g., red to one terminal, white to another) and disconnect them.
- Forbered ny sensor: Apply a small amount of O-ring lubricant (silicone-based) to the O-ring of the new Jandy 7790 sensor. This aids in installation and ensures a proper seal.
- Installer ny sensor: Insert the new sensor into the designated port. Secure it with the retaining nut or clamp, ensuring a snug fit without overtightening.
- Rute ledninger: Carefully route the new sensor's cable into the control panel, following existing wiring paths to maintain a neat and secure installation.
- Tilslut ledninger: Connect the new sensor's wires to the appropriate terminals in the control panel, matching the connections of the old sensor. Ensure wires are securely fastened.
- Close Control Panel: Securely close the control panel cover.
4.3. Efterinstallation
- Gendan strøm: Turn on the main circuit breaker to restore power to the pool/spa system.
- Bekræft drift: Check the control panel display for accurate temperature readings. Monitor the system for any error codes or unusual behavior.

5. Betjeningsvejledning
The Jandy 7790 Temperature Sensor operates in conjunction with your existing pool/spa automation system. It provides temperature data to the control unit, which then manages heating, cooling, or solar functions based on programmed settings.
- The sensor itself does not have user-adjustable settings.
- All temperature set points, modes (e.g., pool heat, spa heat, solar priority), and scheduling are managed through your pool/spa control panel.
- Refer to your specific pool/spa automation system's user manual for detailed operating instructions and programming guides.
6. Vedligeholdelse
Regular maintenance helps ensure the accuracy and longevity of your temperature sensor.
- Visuel inspektion: Periodically inspect the sensor and its cable for any signs of physical damage, corrosion, or wear.
- Renhed: Ensure the sensor probe is free from debris, scale buildup, or algae, especially if installed in water. Gently clean with a soft brush if necessary.
- O-Ring Condition: If the sensor is removed for any reason, inspect the O-ring for cracks or deterioration. Replace if damaged and apply fresh O-ring lubricant upon reinstallation.
- Kabelintegritet: Check the cable for cuts, abrasions, or exposed wiring. Repair or replace if damage is found.
7. Fejlfinding
If you experience issues with temperature readings or system operation, consider the following troubleshooting steps:
- Forkert temperaturaflæsning:
- Verify the sensor is properly seated and sealed.
- Check for debris or scale buildup on the sensor probe.
- Ensure wiring connections at the control panel are secure.
- Consult your pool/spa control system manual for sensor calibration procedures, if available.
- No Temperature Reading / Error Code:
- Confirm power is supplied to the control system.
- Inspect the sensor cable for any breaks or disconnections.
- Check the wiring connections at the control panel for proper seating and tightness.
- If the issue persists, the sensor may be faulty and require replacement.
- System Not Responding to Temperature:
- Ensure the pool/spa control system is set to the correct operating mode (e.g., heating enabled).
- Verify that the temperature set point is above the current temperature for heating to activate.
- Consult your pool/spa control system manual for programming and operational details.
If troubleshooting steps do not resolve the issue, contact a qualified pool/spa technician for further assistance.
