7. 

The existing temperature sensors must be replaced. The 

temperature sensor kit that comes with the 

QUANTUM

HD 

retrofit includes the following.

4  -  ICTD,  1/4"  MPT,  temperature  sensors  (suction, 

discharge, oil and separator temperature)

4  -  24',  2  wire,  shielded  cables  with  integrated  DIN 

connector

1  - 4-hole, 3/4" strain relief

Once  each  of  the  new  temperature  sensors  are  prop-
erly  installed,  plug  in  the  cables  and  route  back  to  the 

QUANTUM

HD

 where they will be gathered and ran through 

the 4-hole 3/4" strain relief provided in the kit. Use one of 
the 4 holes provided at the bottom left side of the enclosure 
for the entry of these cables. 

8.  

Before making the final wiring connection for the tem-

perature  sensors,  refer  to  the  multipage  drawing  that  is 
provided in the new controller or the panel wiring diagrams 
in  the  090.040-M  publication.  Temperature  probe  cabling 
is grounded at the ground block in the panel. Cut off the 
shield and drain wire at the probe end and use heat shrink 
or electrical tape to cover the bare wire, preventing contact 
with ground. 

9.

 Connect the red (or white) and black wires to the analog 

I/O board as shown on the on the panel wiring diagrams in 
the 090.040-M publication.

10.

 If the existing pressure transducers are not the newer 

4-20mA type, they must be replaced. The signal from the 
older standard Vilter

®

 pressure transducer is not a standard 

sensor signal range. 
The pressure transducer kit that comes with the 

QUANTUM

HD

 

retrofit includes the following.

1   - 0-200psia 1/4" MPT Transducer (suction pressure)
3   - 0-500psia 1/4" MPT Transducer (discharge, oil & 

pre-filter pressure)

4   -  24',  3  wire,  shielded  cables  with  integrated  DIN 

connector

1   - 4-hole, 3/4" strain relief

Once each of the pressure transducers are properly installed, 
plug  in  the  cables  and  route  back  to  the 

QUANTUM

HD

Gather the cables and run through the 4-hole 3/4" strain relief 
provided in the kit. Use one of the 4 holes provided at the 
bottom left side of the enclosure for the entry of these cables. 

NOTICE

If the existing sensors are 4-20mA they can be used 

and need to be configured properly for signal type and 

range in Analog I/O Configuration.

11. 

Refer to the panel wiring diagrams in the Maintenance 

manual  (090.040-M  or  090.020-M)  and  connect  the  red, 
black, and white wires of the pressure transducers to the 

QUANTUM

HD

 analog board. The shield of the transducer 

cable is grounded inside the transducer and should not be 
grounded inside the cabinet.

12. 

The motors/actuators for the capacity and volume slides 

need to be the current optical actuators. If the existing motors 
are the old gear driven type, these will need to be replaced 
with the optical actuators before proceeding.

The position feedback cable from the capacity and volume 
slide  actuators  will  be  routed  back  to  the 

QUANTUM

HD

 

and through 2 of the 4 holes in the 3/4" strain relief that 
is provided. The capacity slide actuator is the one that is 
physically higher on the compressor. To avoid any incidental 
damage, disconnect the cables for control and signal at the 
optical actuators before wiring these devices to the digital 
and analog boards. They will be reconnected later..

13. 

Refer  to  the  Vilter

®

  specific  drawings  that  come  with 

the 

QUANTUM

HD

 for instruction on properly landing the 

power, signal and common wires of the signal cable for the 
capacity and volume slide position on the analog I/O board. 
These drawings also include connection information for the 
load, unload and common wire for the control cable to the 
digital board.

14. 

Before starting the AC control wiring, the following items 

should be checked in the compressor starter. Refer to the 
compressor motor starter diagrams.

A.

 The compressor requires a minimum of 2 KVA trans-

former for 120 VAC control and heater power.

B.

  The  compressor  starter  must  have  a  ground  wire 

pulled  from  the  three-phase  source.  The  ground 

must be connected to the starter backplate and the 

neutral  terminal  (2)  on  the  secondary  side  of  the 

control transformer.

C.

 Verify that the current transformer (CT) is placed as 

shown on the motor starter diagram in the motor 

starter IOM and is sized according to the CT selection 

calculation.

D.

 Verify  that  auxiliary  contacts  are  provided  on  the 

compressor and oil pump contactor.

E.

  Verify that the compressor motor overloads are sized 

properly.

F.

  If the compressor and oil pump starters do not have 

interposing relays already provided, the relays must 
be mounted and wired as shown on the drawings.

NOTICE

The most common electronic control panel problems 

are due to undersized AC power wiring, poor grounds, 

and control power supplied from lighting panels that 

have  other  devices  tied  to  them  that  generate  large 

amounts of AC line noise. please follow these directions 

carefully.

 (See p.8 for additional information on Installing 

Electronic Equipment in an Industrial Environment.)

Metal oxide varistors (MOV or surge suppressor) are recom-
mended for the compressor starter coil, oil pump starter coil 
(if applicable) and liquid injection solenoid coil (if applicable). 
The MOVs should be placed directly at the coils of these de-
vices. Placement of the MOVs at the control panel terminal 
strip negates the surge suppression effect.

15. 

Using 10 AWG wire, connect the control transformer in 

the compressor starter panel to the proper terminals in the 

QUANTUM

HD 

control panel, as shown in the IOM on the 

compressor  motor  starter  diagrams  and  the  panel  wiring 
diagrams. These wires are: black or red (1), white (2), and 
green  (GND).  (Copper  ground  only.  Conduit  ground  is  not 
acceptable.)
