PERSONAL INJURY

• Allow only trained personnel to operate disposer.
• Use baffles and guarding to avoid splashing and

ejection of materials.

• Do not put fingers or hands into the disposer.
• When attempting to remove objects from a

disposer, use long-handled tongs or pliers.

• Turn power off before clearing a jam, removing an

object from the disposer or pressing the red reset

button. (See Troubleshooting).

• Disconnect electricity before adjusting set points.

ELECTRIC SHOCK

• Turn off the electrical supply to the disposer before
attempting any work on it. Use a voltmeter or
circuit tester to ensure that power is off.
• All installation work must conform to local

plumbing and electrical codes.

• All control centers and disposers must be carefully

and permanently grounded.

• A properly fused disconnect must be installed at

the electrical supply source for the control center.

• The control center’s door disconnect must be in the

off position before the panel door can be opened.

Power is still present at the disconnect until power

is turned off at the electrical supply source.

LINE VOLTAGE

Connect the incoming line power to the electrical
disconnect switch and connect the disposer motor to
labeled terminal blocks in the control center. Use the
appropriate voltage and phase electrical connection
diagram, Figure 3, 4, 5, or 6.

LOW VOLTAGE

The AS-101K control center uses low voltage (24 V)
to operate contactor coils, solid state control circuit,
push buttons, and solenoid valves. Red wires denote
a 24 V circuit.

REMOTE CONTROL STATION

Any number of remote control stations can be used.
Mount remote controls within sight of the disposer
per local codes. Refer to Figure 7.

Remove jumper

wire between #2 and #3 when using remote
control station.

WATER SOLENOID VALVE

Two 24 V solenoid valves are supplied with all control
centers. Connect one 24 V solenoid valve (in line with
the 1 GPM flow control) to terminal 4 and 13, connect
the other 24 V solenoid valve (in line with the 7 GPM
flow control) to terminal 4 and 14. See Figure 7.

Wire per local electrical code using 7/8" diameter holes
in bottom of control center cabinet and install NEMA 4
water-tight electrical connectors.

After completing the connections, replace all terminal
block shields, close door, and fasten all locking clamps.
Replace disposer motor cover. Turn on power.

Please read the disposer operating instructions and
train your personnel before operating the disposer.
The operating instructions include:
• Disposer operation
• How to restart the disposer after a jam condition

PROPERTY DAMAGE

• Ensure that control center voltage and phase

match the disposer motor and electrical supply.

Check name plates on disposer and control

centers for voltage and phase specifications.

• Refer to the control center wiring diagrams in this

manual for correct connection.

• Use NEMA 4 watertight electrical connectors

(not supplied) when making electrical connections

to the control center.
