Compatibility Notes
Use this replacement sensor only if your system calls for a GLX-PC-12-KIT or compatible 10K thermistor temperature sensor. If you are comparing similar replacement options, review the Hayward GLX-PC-12-KIT temperature sensor before ordering.
If your installation requires clamps or extra mounting support, compare the GLX-PC-12-KIT sensor with pipe clamps to make sure you choose the right kit style.
This part should not be confused with a flow switch, salt cell, or circuit board. If the controller is also showing a flow warning, inspect the Hayward flow switch separately before replacing the temperature sensor.
What the Temperature Sensor Does
The temperature sensor helps the pool control system read water, air, or solar temperature. Accurate temperature readings can help the system operate correctly, especially where temperature affects control decisions, solar heating logic, or salt system operation.
A damaged, disconnected, or failing sensor may cause incorrect temperature readings, error messages, or system behavior that does not match actual pool conditions. Always check wiring, plug connection, controller settings, and sensor placement before replacing parts.
Installation Notes
Turn off power to the pool control system before removing or installing the sensor. Follow the manufacturer’s manual for the correct sensor location, routing, connection, and mounting method.
Do not pull sharply on the cable or pinch it under equipment covers. Route the cable where it is protected from sharp edges, heat, moving parts, and standing water.
If your issue appears near the flow switch or bridge assembly, review the Hayward bridge temperature sensor before replacing the wrong part.
Troubleshooting Before Replacement
Before ordering, compare the controller reading with a reliable manual thermometer. If the reading is far off, inspect the sensor cable, connection point, and installation location.
If the sensor and wiring appear correct but the system still reads temperature incorrectly, the AquaRite main circuit board may need to be checked as part of the troubleshooting process.
Maintenance Tips
Inspect the cable and sensor body during routine equipment checks. Look for cracks, loose connections, corrosion, cuts, or damage caused by weather, pests, or equipment movement.
Keep the sensor mounted securely and avoid placing it where it can be bent, crushed, or exposed to unnecessary stress. Replace the sensor if it is visibly damaged or no longer provides stable readings after connection and placement checks.
Before You Order
Confirm that your system uses a 10K thermistor temperature sensor and that GLX-PC-12-KIT is the correct replacement part. Also verify the cable length, connector style, mounting location, system compatibility, and whether any clamps or hardware are included. Do not order this part if you need a complete salt chlorine generator, control board, flow switch, salt cell, or full automation system.
