Hayward 997017 Low Voltage Transformer 300W Photocell Timer

Product Description

The HAYWARD 997017 is a 300-watt low voltage transformer designed for outdoor landscape and pool lighting systems. It delivers 12 to 15 volts of output and integrates a built-in photocell and timer, eliminating the need for separate control devices. The stainless steel housing provides corrosion resistance in outdoor environments. It connects via a plug-in 6-foot power cord, making installation straightforward. Licensed electricians and pool lighting technicians are the primary installers of this unit.

This transformer is suited for residential and light commercial low voltage landscape and pool lighting installations. The onboard photocell automatically activates connected fixtures at dusk and shuts them off at dawn. The integrated timer adds scheduling flexibility, allowing fixtures to run only during specified hours. It is appropriate for applications where a single 300W transformer can serve an entire lighting zone without a secondary control module.

Key Features

• 300-watt power rating supports substantial low voltage lighting loads
• Built-in photocell for automatic dusk-to-dawn operation
• Integrated timer for programmable on/off scheduling
• Output voltage range of 12 to 15 volts accommodates standard low voltage fixtures
• Stainless steel housing resists corrosion in outdoor and poolside environments
• Plug-in connection with 6-foot power cord for quick hookup to a standard outlet

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install transformer for residential and light commercial low voltage outdoor lighting systems requiring a 300W, 12 to 15 volt supply with photocell and timer control.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or qualified pool and landscape lighting technician in accordance with local electrical codes and NEC guidelines. Power down the circuit at the breaker before making any wiring connections to the low voltage output terminals. Mount the transformer to a stable vertical surface at a height that keeps the unit and cord connection clear of standing water. Do not exceed the 300W rated load across all connected fixtures.
