Description

The Pentair 8023304 is a four position plug-in screw terminal for ComPool and IntelliTouch pool and spa automatic control systems. The product photograph carries the part number 8023304Z, and both numbers are in the source data for this item.

What it is

A small terminal block that plugs onto a header inside the control panel. Field wiring lands under four screws on the block. Because the block unplugs, wiring can be made up off the board and pushed back into place, which is a good deal easier than working screws down inside an enclosure.

Why it fails

Automation panels sit outdoors for years. Moisture gets into the enclosure, terminals corrode, and a connection that is not tight will arc and burn the plastic around it. The usual symptom is an output or an accessory that has quietly stopped working while everything else in the panel is fine.

Before you order

Count the positions on the block you are removing. This is the four position version, and the panels use blocks in more than one size.
