Pentair EasyTouch 520547 Wireless Controller Kit 8-Circuit Remote with Transceiver, Water-Resistant LCD

The Pentair 520547 EasyTouch Wireless Controller Kit is a battery-powered remote and transceiver bundle that wirelessly controls up to eight auxiliary circuits for pool and landscape automation.

This kit pairs a compact wireless remote with a matching transceiver to extend Pentair EasyTouch automation to any location within communication range. Designed for retrofit or new installations, the package adds eight assigned auxiliary circuits to your EasyTouch system and uses an easy-to-read LCD for mode selection and status. The controller is water resistant and intended to simplify switching lights, pumps, fountains, and other pool-related equipment without running extra wiring.

How does the wireless remote connect to my EasyTouch system?

The remote communicates with the included transceiver, which mounts near the EasyTouch control panel and bridges commands from the handheld transmitter. Typical setups use the transceiver to translate wireless signals into the system’s auxiliary circuit commands, so the main automation panel responds as if a local switch was used.

• Includes a dedicated transceiver for secure pairing with the remote
• Up to eight auxiliary circuits available for assignment
• Wireless range rated to approximately 300 feet line-of-sight
• LCD screen shows active selections and battery status

What equipment and scenarios can I control with the eight circuits?

The eight auxiliary circuits provide flexible control for lights, decorative features, circulation pumps, water features, and landscape zones. You can assign circuits to single devices or combine them for multi-zone scenes, giving the EasyTouch system additional remote-accessible functions without hardwiring new control points.

• Pool and spa lighting schedules and scenes
• Fountains, spillways, and decorative water features
• Circulation or booster pumps and auxiliary valves
• Low-voltage landscape zones and accessory loads

What are the practical performance details and installation notes?

The remote and transceiver are intended for easy installation and everyday use. The remote’s LCD and water-resistant housing help it stand up to poolside environments. For reliable performance, mount the transceiver within rated range and minimize obstructions between transmitter and transceiver; concrete, metal structures, and dense landscaping can reduce effective distance.

• Rated wireless range up to 300 feet in open conditions
• Water-resistant transmitter housing for poolside use
• LCD display for clear status and menu navigation
• Simple pairing process with EasyTouch automation panels

How do I maintain and troubleshoot the wireless kit?

Routine maintenance is minimal: replace the remote battery when low and keep the transceiver free of moisture and debris. If signals drop or commands aren’t received, verify battery level, check transceiver mounting and wiring to the EasyTouch panel, and confirm no new large obstructions are blocking the path.

• Replace transmitter batteries as indicated by the LCD
• Inspect transceiver wiring and mounting periodically
• Re-pair the remote if the system loses recognition
• Test range and relocate transceiver if signal is weak

Who is this for: The Pentair 520547 EasyTouch Wireless Controller Kit is aimed at pool owners, landscapers, and installers who want to add remote control capability to an existing or new Pentair EasyTouch automation system without running additional control wiring. It suits residential and light-commercial settings where flexible control of multiple accessories is needed and a water-resistant, easy-to-use handheld remote is preferred.
