Piping

Section 4

(continued)

The pressure sensor cable is prewired to the controller. The cable can be shortened for a cleaner installation.

Longer cable lengths are available, consult factory. Maximum recommended pressure sensor cable length is

300ft. Avoid leaving a coil of pressure sensor cable as this can induce unwanted transient voltages and noise

into the system. Do not run the pressure sensor cable alongside the input or output wiring. Maintain a distance

of at least 8” between the pressure sensor cable and input or output wiring.
Ensure the pressure sensor cable is connected as follows: Brown to terminal 7 (24VDC SUPPLY), White to

terminal 6 (TRANSDUCER INPUT), Drain to chassis. Connecting the Drain wire to the chassis electrically

connects the sensor case to the chassis of the controller. In some cases this drain wire must be disconnected

from the controller chassis. In cases where the there is grounded metal piping which is continuous between

the transducer and the motor or the transducer is installed in grounded metal piping, a ground loop can result

so the drain wire must be disconnected from the chassis. In cases where there are sections of nonmetallic

piping between the transducer and motor or the transducer is installed in ungrounded piping this drain wire

should be connected to the controller chassis.

Mounting the Controller

Section 5

General

Mount the controller in a well ventilated, shaded area using 4 screws. The controller must be mounted

vertically. Be sure to leave 8 inches of free air space on every side of the unit. The controller must be in an

area with an ambient between -22º F and 122º F. If installation is above 3300 feet above sea level, ambient

temperatures are derated 1% per 330 feet above 3300 feet.

The altitude limit for this controller is 6500 ft.

Do not install above 6500 ft.
