If you have a heater manufactured before January 1, 1996 and you receive a newer circuit board with the smaller terminals and the older thermistor has larger connectors, the larger connectors can be crimped so they will fit tight on the newer circuit board terminals, contact a Pool Service Professional for details.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-start=\"1100\" data-end=\"1116\"\u003eHighlights\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-start=\"1117\" data-end=\"1825\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1117\" data-end=\"1250\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1119\" data-end=\"1250\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1119\" data-end=\"1140\"\u003eOEM Heater Board:\u003c\/strong\u003e Designed specifically for MiniMax and PowerMax heaters, including MiniMax Plus and PowerMax 150–400 models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1251\" data-end=\"1387\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1253\" data-end=\"1387\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1253\" data-end=\"1280\"\u003eTemperature Regulation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Provides accurate control over heater operation, maintaining the pool or spa at the desired temperature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1388\" data-end=\"1527\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1390\" data-end=\"1527\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1390\" data-end=\"1414\"\u003eBroad Compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Works with multiple models, covering a wide range of Pentair heating systems for flexible replacement options.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1528\" data-end=\"1674\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1530\" data-end=\"1674\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1530\" data-end=\"1555\"\u003eRestores Performance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Replacing the old or faulty board restores reliable operation, ensuring the heater functions efficiently and safely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1675\" data-end=\"1825\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1677\" data-end=\"1825\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1677\" data-end=\"1701\"\u003eSimple Installation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Built as a direct replacement, making it easy for technicians or pool owners to install and return the heater to service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIncludes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e(1) \u003c\/strong\u003ePentair 470179 Thermostat Circuit Board\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePentair MiniMax Heater\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePentair MiniMax Plus Heater\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePentair PowerMax Heaters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote:\u003c\/strong\u003e This board may be compatible with your system, please refer to your owners manual to ensure compatibility.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-start=\"276\" data-end=\"297\"\u003eAdditional Info\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"298\" data-end=\"470\"\u003eNeed help with the Pentair Thermostat Circuit Board 470179?
