Add Relay Outputs and External Speed Control to IntelliFlo3 / IntelliPro3 VSF Pumps
- Genuine Pentair optional relay control board kit for IntelliFlo3 VSF and IntelliPro3 VSF variable speed and flow pumps.
- Compatible with both 1.5 HP and 3.0 HP IntelliFlo3 / IntelliPro3 VSF pump platforms.
- Adds four low-voltage digital inputs for external control of customizable pump speed or flow programs.
- Adds two high-voltage relay outputs: one 5A maximum relay and one 16A maximum relay.
- Designed to control compatible accessories such as pool lights, salt chlorine generators, booster pumps, and other filtration-system components within the relay ratings.
Quick Product Summary
The Pentair 356365Z Relay Control Board Kit is the optional universal I/O and relay board designed specifically for Pentair IntelliFlo3 VSF and Sta-Rite IntelliPro3 VSF variable speed and flow pool pumps. Pentair lists this board as an available accessory and replacement part for both 1.5 HP and 3.0 HP versions of these pump families.
Installing the board adds two different types of control capability to a compatible pump. First, four low-voltage digital inputs can accept external control signals and trigger four customizable speed or flow programs. This makes the board useful when an external automation system or switching device needs to command specific pump programs without relying only on app-based scheduling.
Second, the board adds two high-voltage relay outputs that can be tied to pump programs. The lower-current relay is rated to a maximum of 5A and the higher-current relay is rated to a maximum of 16A. Pentair identifies typical applications including pool lights, salt chlorine generators, booster pumps, spa blowers, and other compatible filtration-system components, depending on the relay selected and the connected equipment load.
This is not a generic pool automation relay board. It mounts inside the IntelliFlo3 / IntelliPro3 VSF pump drive wiring compartment and connects directly to the pump drive. Match the exact pump family and part number before ordering.
Best For
Upgrading a compatible IntelliFlo3 VSF or IntelliPro3 VSF pump that does not already have the relay control board, or replacing a failed 356365Z board when relay outputs or external digital-input control are required.
Why This Matters
- Four digital inputs allow external control of four customizable speed or flow programs.
- Two onboard relays let selected accessories operate in coordination with programmed pump operation.
- The 5A and 16A relay outputs support both lower-current and higher-current accessory applications within Pentair’s published ratings.
- Direct pump integration keeps relay settings and connected-device status available through supported pump controls.

Compatibility / Fitment Notes
Pentair lists 356365Z for IntelliFlo3 VSF and IntelliPro3 VSF 1.5 HP and 3.0 HP variable speed and flow pumps. This board is pump-mounted and should not be treated as a universal replacement for unrelated Pentair automation panels, EasyTouch, IntelliTouch, IntelliCenter load-center boards, or other pool-control circuit boards.
If the pump already includes an I/O or relay board from the factory, verify whether replacement is actually required before ordering. Confirm the pump model and existing drive configuration against current Pentair documentation.
Installation / Use Notes
Installation requires access to the pump drive wiring compartment and involves both low-voltage and potentially high-voltage wiring. Pentair instructs installers to stop the pump, disconnect power at the circuit breaker, and wait at least 60 seconds for stored charge before opening the wiring compartment.
The board slides onto the pump drive connector and is secured with the included retaining screw. Connected equipment must be wired to the correct relay based on its electrical load. Follow current Pentair installation instructions, applicable electrical codes, and equipment ratings. Installation and electrical service should be performed by a qualified pool or electrical professional.
Buy with Confidence
Benchmark Pool Supply helps customers match Pentair pump electronics by exact pump family, horsepower, and manufacturer part number. Relay boards and automation circuit boards can look similar while serving very different equipment, so confirming 356365Z specifically for an IntelliFlo3 VSF or IntelliPro3 VSF pump helps prevent an expensive wrong-part order.
Frequently Asked Questions
