NCC-002 Warnings

DO NOT submerge the NCC-002 controller in liquid or directly wash the controller with a liquid of any
type.

It is the responsibility of the purchaser to follow all guidelines and safety procedures provided within
this manual, as well as any other manufacturer's product that will be used in the installation or
operation of the NCC-002 Nitrous Control Center.

It is the responsibility of the purchaser to follow all guidelines and safety procedures supplied with
this product and any other manufacturer’s product used with this product. It is also the responsibility
of the purchaser to determine compatibility of this device with the vehicle and other components.

Lingenfelter Performance Engineering assumes no responsibility for damages resulting from
accident, improper installation, misuse, abuse, improper operation, lack of reasonable care, or all
previously stated reasons due to incompatibility with other manufacturer’s products.

Lingenfelter Performance Engineering assumes no responsibility or liability for damages incurred
from the use of products manufactured or sold by Lingenfelter Performance Engineering on vehicles
used for competition racing. Lingenfelter Performance Engineering neither recommends nor
approves the use of products manufactured or sold by Lingenfelter Performance Engineering on
vehicles which may be driven on public highways or roads, and assumes no responsibility for
damages incurred from such use.

The NCC-002 Nitrous Control Center are intended for use in the controlled environment of a racing
facility. NEVER use a nitrous oxide injection system on public roadways as it may be illegal, but also
extremely dangerous.

It is the purchaser's responsibility to check the state and local laws pertaining to the use of nitrous
oxide for racing applications. Lingenfelter Performance Engineering denounces the use of its
products in illegal street racing activities.

LPE recommends that nitrous safety solenoids be used anytime the primary nitrous solenoids are
pulse-width modulated. The use of nitrous safety solenoids allow the flow of nitrous to be terminated
in the event that either of the primary nitrous solenoids get stuck open.

Before switching the NCC-002 Nitrous Control Center ON for the first time, check the wiring to verify
that all wires are correctly routed and securely attached to the controller. Incorrect wiring of the NCC-
002 could potentially lead to damage of the controller, as well as the vehicle itself.

LPE strongly recommends that you position your nitrous bottle pressure sensor on the tank side of
the nitrous bottle valve. If the nitrous pressure sensor is located on the tank side of your nitrous
bottle valve, the valve can be closed between runs as the sensor can still sense the bottle pressure
while it is being heated. If your nitrous pressure sensor is located on the outgoing side of your valve,
the valve must stay open anytime the bottle is being heated so that the nitrous pressure sensor can
regulate the pressure. Heating the bottle with the pressure sensor on the outgoing side of the valve
and the valve shut could potentially cause an extremely dangerous over-pressure condition. If you
choose to position your nitrous bottle pressure sensor on the outgoing side of the nitrous bottle
valve, you will be doing so at your own risk. Per NHRA rules, the bottle's over-pressure safety disk
should be connected to a blow down tube that allows nitrous to be vented out of the vehicle in the
event that the safety disk ruptures. Before using the nitrous bottle(s), make sure that they are
properly secured to the vehicle. If using a bottle heater, make sure that the bottle heater is properly
secured to the bottle and that it lays completely flat around the bottle.

All electrical joints, as well as any other places where exposed wires are present, should be
sufficiently insulated using heat shrink tubing and possibly electrical tape. Failure to do so could
lead to damage to the wires, as well as the electrical components that they are connected to.

The NCC-002 Nitrous Control Center is designed to be mounted somewhere in the passenger
compartment of the vehicle. Do not mount the NCC-002 where it could be exposed to extreme heat,
such as the engine compartment.
