APM-001e 

AUG 2015

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

The standard electrical requirement for the APM is 115V 

50/60 Hz. Also available is 230V 50/60 Hz. Main supply 
voltage fluctuations should not to exceed  ± 10% on nominal 
voltage. Connect APM to a dual pole external switch or 
circuit breaker suitable for full disconnection. Locate this 
switch or circuit breaker nearby. The control cabinet has 
a bottom ½” knockout for power connection and bottom 
3/4” knockout for individual purge point solenoid valves 
(See Figure 4). Any additional knockouts, if necessary, 
should be made on the bottom of the control cabinet. A 
grounding block inside the control cabinet is provided for 3 

wire purge point solenoid coils. Carefully study the wiring 
diagram below (Figure 5) to avoid electrical short circuits.

Connect electrical wiring from each purge point solenoid to 

the remote purge point solenoid plug-in connector screw 
terminals (1 through 8) plus the grounding block.  Normally, 
the voltage of the remote purge point solenoid valves is the 
same as the purger.  However, if the purge point solenoid 
valve coil voltage is different, simply remove and discard 
the factory installed jumpers between terminals 13 & 14 and 

15 & 16.  Bring the purge point solenoid line (L1) connection 

to terminal 14 and neutral (L2) to terminal 16.
