Air Valve Driver
Connect the Air Valve (Solenoid) to the AIR VALVE DRIVER Receptacle located on the rear panel of
the PM6. 24 and 115 VAC Air Valves can be plugged directly into the PM6. Weld Heads with standard
115 volt plugs (NEMA 5-15P) require an adapter, Unitek Peco Model VDAC24P (P/N 10-304-01),
Valve Driver Adapter Cable. When the connection has been made, the PM6 will automatically
recognize that an Air Head has been connected.
Users of Air Actuated Weld Heads which are not manufactured by Unitek Peco should connect
the air solenoid valve on the head, or regulator valve assembly, to the appropriate 24 volt or 115
volt pins of the valve driver receptacle on the rear of the PM6. See Appendix A, Specifications,
for detailed information.
