5. Connections in Conduit Box

Now that the wires have been routed through the port in the AQUAVAR controller.

• Conduit and wires should be trial routed and cut to length at this time. After wire is routed

through, insert connector through hole in conduit box and fasten with locknut.

6. Mount the thermistor into the conduit box so the metal side of the sensor will contact the

motor shell when mounted.

7. The 4 remaining wires routed

from the terminal block U, V, W,

and ground screw, should now

be connected to the motor leads

using the motor nameplate. See

Diagram 7 for reference.

• Always check with motor

manufacturer for actual motor

wiring!

8. Pressure Transducer Installation and Wiring

It is recommended that the transducer be mounted in the discharge piping. The location

should be in a non-turbulent, straight piece of pipe. See layout on page 5.

9. Transducer should be placed downstream of system check valve in a non-turbulent section of

piping. Ensure cable plug is secure to transducer connector.

• The transducer is supplied with NPT threads for direct mounting in the discharge piping.
