Using a UBEC1S to control an E3F E5F actuated valve
Refer to Unibody valve installation and instruction manual p/n 99329000.
The manual can be found online at www.elkhartbrass.com
The UBEC1S controller is designed to control an E3F or E5F actuated valve. The
UBEC1S must be wired for power and ground. In addition the five control wires must be
connected to wires leads with female contacts located in the appropriate positions in the
12 pin connector for the E3F or E5F actuated valve. Part number 08899151 includes a
UBEC1S controller with a 12 inch wire lead with heat shrinkable crimp connections for
power and valve control.
Installation; see section lV, page 6 of the manual.
Wiring; Connect the red (+) & black (-) wires on the UBEC1S controller to 1 amp fused
12v (or 0.5 amp fused 24v) truck power & ground using the heat shrinkable crimp
connectors. The harness in figure 1 is included with the E3F or E5F actuator. The 12
pin connector on this harness plugs into the top of the actuator. Connect the red (+) &
black (-) wires of this harness to 30 amp fused 12v (or 15 amp fused 24v) truck power &
ground using the heat shrinkable crimp connectors. The 2 pin Packard connector is to
be plugged into its mating connector on the lead from the actuators electric motor.
Crimp Deutsch p/n 0462-201-16141 female contacts onto five 20 awg cross link wires,
one each of the following colors, white, green, blue, brown, & orange. These wires must
be long enough to reach from the valve to the UBEC1S controller. Place the contact
ends of the wires into the 12 pin connector for the valve as follows; white in position 3,
green in position 4, blue in position 8, brown in position 9, & orange in position 10.
Maintaining wire color code will greatly reduce risk of errors. Strip the other ends of the
five wires and place them in the crimp connectors on the matching colored leads from
the UBEC1S controller. Crimp the connectors securely onto the stripped wires and use
a heat gun to shrink and seal the connections.
