Installation

Wiring 

The optical air eliminator requires a LectroCount LCR/

LCR-II Electronic Register with CPU board part number 

81920  (LC³  with  81924).  If  the  LectroCount  does  not 

contain an 81920 CPU board (LC³ with 81924), this board 

must be ordered as a replacement to the existing CPU 

board.

The 81920 CPU board has an additional connector, con-

nector J15, not present on other board models. On the 

LC³ 81924 CPU board it is connector J11.

To make the connection to a LectroCount Register, the 

optical sensor comes supplied with a 24” cable. The cable 

is potted in the optical sensor assembly at one end. A 

threaded cord grip is included to fasten the other end of 

the cable into the back of the LectroCount Register. The 

solenoid  requires  a  12 AWG,  two-wire,  braided  cable, 

approximately 24 to 36” in length.

!

 WARNING

For North American Installations, the installation must be fully in accordance with the National Elec-

trical Code (US) or the Canadian Electrical Code respectively to maintain the hazardous location 

ratings on the product. This may involve using rigid conduit for all connections.

!

 Caution

Incorrect wiring can damage the optical sensor.

Step 1 - Remove Cable Plug

Loosen and remove the screw from the cover of the S3 

solenoid valve cable plug. Remove the cable plug from the 

solenoid valve coil. Remove the cover from the cable plug 

housing and then remove the terminal block. Be sure to note 

its orientation in the housing. Leave the flat gasket in place 

on the coil.

Step 2 - Connect Cable to Cable Plug

Route one end of the cable through the conduit fitting and 

into the cable plug housing. Connect the cable wires to the 

terminal block. Connect the BLACK wire to Terminal 2 and 

the RED wire to Terminal 1. These indicators are marked on 

the terminal block.
