Guide for using multiple UBEC controllers to control one valve
UBEC1, UBEC2, & UBEC3 with E1F & E2F actuated valves
Two UBEC1, UBEC2, or UBEC3 controllers can be used to operate one E1F or E2F actuated valve. One
controller will be the primary and the other controller will need to be programmed as a secondary. We have
part numbers set up for primary controllers that include harness length options for connection to the E1F & E2F
actuators. We have part numbers set up for UBEC1, UBEC2, or UBEC3 controllers that include secondary
harness length options for CAN connection to the primary controller. The primary controller will override the
secondary controller.
UBEC1 with E3F & E5F actuated valves
Two UBEC1 controllers can be used to operate one E3F or E5F actuated valve. The E3F or E5F actuator
controller will be the primary and the UBEC1’s will need to be programmed as a secondary. We have part
numbers set up for a UBEC1 that includes optional lengths for a secondary CAN harness that will reach the
E3F or E5F actuator. The same part number can be used to order a second UBEC1 controller with the CAN
harness length option needed to reach from it to the E3F or E5F actuator. A CAN connector kit (our p/n
37221000) will be needed to connect the CAN wires from the UBEC1 controllers and the E3F or E5F actuator.
This kit should be positioned within 3 feet of the E3F or E5F actuator. Programming code 340 will need to be
used to turn off the terminating resistor in the E3F or E5F actuator. In this system the UBEC1 controllers will be
secondary controllers and neither will be able to override the other.
UBEC2 & UBEC3 with E4F & E6F actuated valves
Two UBEC2 or UBEC3 controllers can be used to control one E4F or E6F actuated valve. The E4F or E6F
actuator controller will be the primary and the UBEC2’s or UBEC3’s will need to be programmed as a
secondary. The pressure sensor and flow sensor wire harnesses will be connected to the E4F or E6F actuator.
We have part numbers set up for UBEC2 or UBEC3 controllers that includes optional lengths for a secondary
CAN harness that will reach the E4F or E6F actuator. The same part number can be used to order a second
UBEC2 or UBEC3 controller with the CAN harness length option needed to reach from it to the E4F or E6F
actuator. A CAN connector kit (our p/n 37221000) will be needed to connect the CAN wires from the UBEC1
controllers and the E4F or E6F actuator. This kit should be positioned within 3 feet of the E4F or E6F actuator.
Programming code 3400 will need to be used to turn off the terminating resistor in the E4F or E6F actuator
controller. In this system the UBEC1 controllers will be secondary controllers and neither will be able to
override the other.
