Chapter 3: Installation
3-1 Uncrating
1-Pump, 1-Station Controllers are shipped mounted on a skid, enclosed in a plastic
wrapper, and contained in a cardboard box.
1. Pry the crating away from the skid.
Note: Remove the nails holding the box to the skid and lift the box off carefully;
avoiding staples in the 1’ x 4’ wood supports. Cut the steel banding.
2. Use a pry bar to remove the blocks securing the unit to the skid.
3. Lift unit from sides. Use a pry bar if necessary to carefully remove the
skid from the unit.
4. Lower slowly.
3-2 Mounting the Control Panel
Note: Before you mount the panel, consider how you run wiring to the vacuum
hoppers, the filter chamber atmospheric valve (if so equipped) and the pump
motor starter(s), vacuum switch(es), and vent valve(s).
Mount the panel on a flat, vertical area. It should be a visible area that gives your
operator access to the control. The panel requires a low voltage power drop as listed on
the serial tag.
3-3 Electrical Connections
Refer to local electrical codes, the schematic and connection diagrams supplied with this
unit and the serial tag for wiring considerations. Run all wiring in conduit if codes require
it.
Making Control Panel Power Drop Wiring Connections
Connect the control panel to a grounded 115 VAC duplex outlet, as indicated on the
serial tag. The control enclosure draws less than two (2) amps during operation at 115
VAC.
