Connection to an ARB Air Compressor
(Fig.23.)
c Remove one of the 1/8” BSP plugs from its port in the compressor
tank.
c Apply Teflon paste to the nipple (1/8” X 1/8” BSP) and insert it into
the port and tighten.
c Apply Teflon paste to the free end of the nipple.
c Assemble the inlet port side of the solenoid (stamped with a ‘1’) onto
the nipple and hand tighten it. The solenoid should be rotated into a
position which does not obstruct any other ports on the compressor
tank.
NOTE : The solenoid exhausts compressed air through the
center of the black retaining cap when the Air Locker is
disengaged. Make sure this orifice cannot be
obstructed.
c Apply Teflon paste to the threads of the 5mm push-in fitting and
assemble it into the solenoid outlet port (stamped “2”) and hand
tighten.
