WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
The AirFlo 3 must be connected to a grounded, metallic, permanent wiring system
Ground the compressor cabinet to the ground wire lead provided back to the service
using a copper conductor at least the size of the circuit conductors supplying the cabinet.
A. Branch Circuit Sizing (All valves must be in the open position before initial operation)
1. The branch circuit feeding the Otterbine AirFlo 3 must be sized in accordance with all applicable codes and
must
provide GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interruption)/RCD (Residual Current Device)
and short circuit protection. Refer to
the nameplate label on the compressor cabinet above the electrical connection box for voltage and current requirements.
The on/off switch provided with the AirFlo 3
does not provide personal (GFCI / RCD) electrical shock protection.
B. Electrical Connection
1. The AirFlo 3 is not considered to be portable
equipment and therefore
flexible cord shall
not be used
to connect the cabinet to the
power source. The electrical connection must
be considered permanent and suitable for a
NEMA 3R / IP34 environment.
2. A 1/2" (22mm) trade size conduit entry is
located at the bottom rear of the cabinet. If
using PVC conduit it is important to provide an
expansion coupling at the entry to the
compressor cabinet.
3. To make the conduit and wiring connections
remove the electrical compartment cover
shown on right. Pull the exposed field wiring
connection leads inside the electrical
compartment before making the conduit
connection.
4. When the field conduit and wiring is installed
connect the field wiring to the wiring leads
provided in the electrical compartment. Refer
to electrical schematic provided with the
Otterbine AirFlo 3 System. Replace the
electrical compartment cover when complete.
