MARATHON’s solenoid shifted,

air distribution valve option utilizes

electrical signals to precisely control

your MARATHON’s speed. The

solenoid coil is connected to a customer

- supplied control. Compressed air

provides the pumping power, while

electrical signals control pump speed

(pumping rate).

oPeraTIon

The Solenoid Shifted MARATHON has a

solenoid operated, air distribution valve

in place of the standard MARATHON’s

pilot operated, air distribution valve.

Where a pilot valve is normally utilized

to cycle the pump’s air distribution

valve, an electric solenoid is utilized.

As the solenoid is powered, one of the

pump’s air chambers is pressurized

while the other chamber is exhausted.

When electric power is turned off, the

solenoid shifts and the pressurized

chamber is exhausted while the other

chamber is pressurized. By alternately

applying and removing power to the

solenoid, the pump cycles much like a

standard MARATHON pump, with one

exception. This option provides a way

to precisely control and monitor pump

speed.

BEFORE WIRING THE SOLENOID,

make certain it is compatible with your
