About This Item
The Pentair 461105Z is the OEM Control Board Kit for the MasterTemp and Max-E-Therm pool and spa heaters (125, 250, and 400) — Natural Gas (NA) and Liquid Propane (LP) versions. This kit replaces the PCBA and membrane keypad as a matched assembly, restoring full heater control and automation connectivity.
This product replaces the 461105 prior product and per Pentair Pool service department, they are cross-compatible.
⚠️ IMPORTANT: KIT LISTING — MULTIPLE COMPONENTS INCLUDED
This listing is a kit, not an individual board or keypad. It includes the PCBA, 6-button membrane pad, RS485 assembly, and installation instructions — all required for a complete control board replacement.
⚠️ IMPORTANT: LICENSED PROFESSIONAL INSTALLATION REQUIRED
Gas and high-voltage electrical heater components must be serviced by a licensed pool professional or qualified HVAC technician. Do not attempt to service gas or high-voltage components without proper certification.
The PCBA is the primary control module for the heater — managing ignition sequencing, temperature regulation, and RS485 communication with automation systems such as IntelliTouch and EasyTouch. When the control board fails, common symptoms include no-start conditions, persistent fault codes on the display, and loss of automation connectivity. Replacing the PCBA and membrane keypad together as a matched kit ensures consistent electrical contacts between the board and the keypad buttons, avoiding intermittent input failures that can result from mixing components across service intervals.

Pro Tip
Before ordering, confirm the part number currently installed in your heater — the control board is typically labeled on the board itself or referenced in your heater's service manual. When installing the new board, note the orientation of all wire harness connections before disconnecting them, as the RS485 and ignition harnesses can be easy to reverse on reassembly. This kit is also a component of the master service kit (461100) — if your heater requires multiple component replacements in the same service call, the master kit may be more cost-effective.

Here is the installation guide for the Control Board. Note, installation must be performed by a licensed pool professional or HVAC service expert.
