Valve Installation
If you install the valve yourself, refer to the valve installation and operation manual for mechanical
installation. Instructions for wiring Liquid Controls valves to the LCR 600 can be found below.
Materials needed for wiring valves
These materials are necessary, but are not supplied with the valve:
· 18 AWG stranded wire–3 per solenoid. Unnecessary for 3-way solenoid valves. Only 2 are
necessary for E-7 solenoids.
·
Weatherproof flexible conduit, ½" diameter.
· ½" NPT conduit connectors or cable glands.
· PTFE tape or pipe sealant.
Disconnect Power
Disconnect the power before working on the CPU board.
To wire valves to the LCR 600:
1. Attach cable glands and/or conduit connectors to the solenoid valve(s) and the LCR 600 port(s).
2. Thread the wires through piece of weatherproof conduit that is cut-to-length from the solenoid to a
LCR 600 port.
3. Run the weatherproof conduit between the solenoid operated valve(s) and the LCR 600 housing,
pull the wires through the ports, and tighten the connectors.
4. Connect the S1 solenoid-operated valve wires to terminals 14 and 15 on the J13 terminal block of
the LCR 600 CPU board.
5. Connect the S2 solenoid-operated valve wires to terminals 17 and 18 on the J13 terminal block of
the LCR 600 CPU board.
