3-29 Making VacTrac Control Panel Power Drop

Wiring Connections

Plug the power cord supplied into a properly grounded, 3-slot,
115/1/60 VAC or 230/1/60 VAC receptacle as specified on the
VacTrac control panel serial tag. The control enclosure draws less
than 5 amps during normal operation at 115/1/60 VAC.

!

CAUTION

AEC recommends that you protect PLC memory

by providing the control panel with a dedicated circuit,

a true earth ground, and a spike/surge protector.

3-30 Connecting the Control Panel to Vacuum

Receivers

Figures 29 and 30

Refer to wiring connection drawings following this section for
your specific application.

• Wire the Atmospheric/Sequence-T solenoid (

SOL

) valve to

the terminal provided in the VacTrac control panel enclosure.

• Wire the Bin Full/Hopper Full switch (

LS/PRS

) to the

terminal provided in the VacTrac control panel enclosure.

On 115 VAC control voltage systems, run a common hot

(115 VAC) wire and a common neutral wire from the
controller to each vacuum receiver in the VacTrac system.

On 24 VDC control voltage systems, run a common +24

VDC wire and a common 0 (zero) VDC wire from the
controller to each vacuum receiver in the VacTrac system.

• On all systems, run two wires to each vacuum hopper: one

each from the controller to the Bin-Full switch (

LS

) and to

the Atmospheric/Sequence-T solenoid (

SOL

) valve.

Notes:

• The VacTrac control panel is supplied with a

terminal strip at the upper right corner for + positive
and negative wire connections.
