Gecko Y Series Control System
Gecko YE-5 or YT-7 control system box & Heater only (Topside Control & Cords not included).
Gecko YE-5 or YT-7 control system box & heater only (Topside Control & Cords not included).
The Y Series is available in 2 models and the difference is the amount of equipment that each pack can operate (see below for details on the IN.YE-5 and IN.YT-7 models).
- Each pack can be hooked up to 220V or 110V. If the main power is 220V, then all components can be configured for 110V or 220V.
- The system features a solid-state water flow detection, which eliminates the pressure switch found in traditional spa packs.
- Preloaded configuration settings allows for fast and easy programming.
- Both Y-Series packs are compatible with the Gecko WiFi module.
- Each pack supports a 12 V AC light.
IN.YE-5 - Available in 4kW (0610-221046-355) or 5.5kW (0610-221066-363), dimensions: 19.6" x 10.75" x 2.87", heater is 15" wide with standard 2" connections.
The YE-5 has 5 configurable relays & this will determine the amount of equipment you can run. Each 2-speed pump will use 2 relays, while other 1-speed pumps, blowers and ozonators will use 1 relay each. If you are running a fibre-optic lighting system, this will use 2 relays. A stereo or television can also be powered and will not use one of the relays.
You have the option of running up to (2) 2-speed pumps. Most hot tubs will have at least (1) 2-speed pump, and low speed is used to heat and filter your hot tub. If your tub has a **circulation pump (see disclaimer at bottom of page) for heating & filtering, you have the option to configure all pumps as 1-speed.
IN.YT-7 - Available in 4kW, P/N: 0611-221031-361 (dimensions: 19.6" x 14.5" x 5.1", heater is 15" wide with standard 2" connections)
The YT-7 has 7 configurable relays & this will determine the amount of equipment you can run. Each 2-speed pump will use 2 relays, while other 1-speed pumps, blowers and ozonators will use 1 relay each. If you are running a fibre-optic lighting system, this will use 2 relays. A stereo or television can also be powered and will not use one of the relays.
You have the option of running up to (3) 2-speed pumps. Most hot tubs will have at least (1) 2-speed pump, and low speed is used to heat and filter your hot tub. If your tub has a **circulation pump (see disclaimer at bottom of page) for heating & filtering, you have the option to configure all pumps as 1-speed.
The packs use Amp style cords.
4 wire cords: 2-speed pumps & fiber optic lighting systems require a 4-wire cord
3 wire cords: 1-speed pumps, blowers, ozonators, audio, video use 3 wire cords.
The cords plug in directly to the circuit board.

**Use of circulation pump on the Y-Series: Most spas don't have a small circulation pump, instead, the main pump runs on low speed to heat and filter the water during set filtration cycles. If you are using a small circulation pump, the flow rate must be at least 20 gallons per minute. In other words, the circulation pump must be similar to a Waterway Iron Might or Aquaflo Circmaster Pump and require a minimum 1.5" size plumbing. Pumps like the Waterway Tiny Might or Laing E10 Circulation Pump are too small and will not work with this control system.
