Manning YB8, Operating And Instruction Manual

Prior to operating the sampler, connect the battery to the wiring harness by attaching the
insulated faston connectors to the terminals on the battery. The connectors are marked red for positive
and black for negative. Connect the charger to AC power with its supplied power cord. The two-pin
cable connector on the wiring harness is connected to the BATTERY BACKUP panel connector on the
sampler. The battery should be allowed to fully charge before the sampler is put into operation. (For
more information on the battery charger, refer to its operating manual.)
When the sampler switches between normal power and battery backup, you may see POWER
GLITCH and/or POWER FAIL messages. This is normal due to the lag time of the relay contacts. The
sampler must be programmed to auto-restart after a power failure (*99 sampler configuration mode,
AUTO RESTART set to 1) for the battery backup to operate correctly.
New Hose Couplings for YB8.
Manning has replaced the MS552104 female and MS552105 male quick-disconnect hose couplings used on
YB8 samplers in April 2013. See the table below:
Old Part Number New Part Number
MS552104 female quick-disconnect coupling MS552111 3/8” female coupling
MS552105 male quick-disconnect coupling MS552110 3/8” male coupling
The 3/8” couplings are black in color. The new couplings are more robust, and feature a quarter-turn locking
design. The female couplings rotate 360 degrees to help prevent hose kinks. See Figures 6 and 7.
