II NH3 Vapor Tube Installation
Electrical Connections
The main wiring harness is made specifically for use on
anhydrous ammonia applicators. The harness combines
the wires for the servo valve, flowmeter, shut-off valve
and remote access speed connector into a single 10-pin
connector.
INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
Plug the 10-pin tower of the main harness onto the main
plumbing panel harness. Use 15’ M/P extension cable
(provided) if necessary. Optional extension cables are
available.
Locate the ½” EVA vapor hose supplied with the kit. Starting
on one half of the tool bar, connect the ½” hose to the
outside steel vapor tube. Route the hose up the shank
and along the tool bar frame to the inside steel vapor
tube. Allow enough extra hose to avoid kinking at hinge
points. Cut the hose to length and attach to the inside steel
vapor tube. Install a ½” x ¾” x ½” tee fitting approximately
halfway along this hose between the outside and inside
steel vapor tubes.
See Illustration below.
Repeat the same
procedure for the steel vapor tubes on the other half of the
tool bar. Secure all hoses with properly sized hose clamps.
Secure the hoses to the tool bar frame with cable ties.
Locate the ¾” EVA hose supplied with the kit. Connect to
one of the ½” x ¾” x ½” tee fittings and route along the tool
bar frame to the vapor outlet connections on the Liquifier™.
Repeat for other half of tool bar. Allow enough extra hose
to avoid kinking at hinge points. Secure all hoses with
properly sized hose clamps. Secure the hoses to the tool
bar frame with cable ties.
NH3500™ ONLY:
The NH3500™ has a single vapor outlet.
Install an additional ¾” x ¾” x ¾” tee fitting near the center
of the tool bar. Then, use this fitting to join the ½” x ¾” x ½”
tee fittings on either side of the tool bar to the vapor tube
connection on the NH3500™ plumbing panel.
FOR ALL NH3 KITS
Weld the steel vapor
tubes to the back of
your liquid tubes. All
electronic equipment,
including the console
and radar speed
sensor,
MUST BE
D I S C O N N E C T E D
BEFORE WELDING
ON EQUIPMENT.
The
four steel vapor tubes
should be evenly
spaced across the
applicator (two per
side) and installed so
that only their wear
resistant surface contacts the soil. Mount the tubes just
high enough to avoid plugging.

IMPORTANT!
Vapor tube plumbing
MUST
be connected to the
Liquifier™ vapor outlets for the system to work
correctly. Operating the Liquifier™ without the vapor
tubes will present serious health and safety hazards.
