SERVICE-PART, MAIN PCB, HPC-4(EC | GLX-PCB-HPC-4

Hayward HPC-4 Main PCB (GLX-PCB-HPC-4) is the central control board for managing and automating various functions of your pool system. Here’s a breakdown of how it works and its role in your pool setup:

• Control and Automation
• The Main PCB is the “brain” processing user inputs and operating your pool equipment automatically or manually.
• It connects to other components such as pumps, heaters, valves, and lights, to control their operation based on settings or schedules.
•  Features It Manages
• Pump Control: Regulates the pool pump’s on/off cycles and speed if you’re using a variable-speed pump.
• Heater Activation: Turns the pool or spa heater on or off based on the desired water temperature.
• Lighting: Controls pool and spa lighting, often with color options and schedules.
• Valves: Operates automated valves for features like waterfalls, spa jets, or switching between pool and spa modes.
• Sanitization Systems: May manage chlorinators or saltwater generators to maintain pool chemistry.
• User Interface
• The PCB connects to a control panel where users can set schedules, monitor temperatures, and activate or deactivate features.
• Many systems also support remote controls or smartphone integration via apps for convenient management.
• Sensors and Inputs
• The board uses sensors to gather information, such as water temperature or flow rate, to make decisions.
• Inputs from the user (manual control) or pre-set schedules dictate its operation.
• Power Distribution
• It’s a hub for distributing power to various components, ensuring they operate efficiently and safely.
• Communication
• Modern systems often allow communication with remote devices, enabling control via Wi-Fi or proprietary remote systems.
