Low Pressure Cutout Switch or Suction Transducer Configuration

These units could have either a Low Pressure Cutout switch or a Suction Transducer installed.

Low Pressure Cutout Switch Installed Suction Transducer Installed

The Low Pressure Cutout Switch or Suction Transducer will have the same function, since the unit only has one fitting on the suction tube, the unit can have either a Low Pressure Cutout Switch or Suction Transducer but not both.

The following procedure is to replace a Low Pressure Cutout Switch (LPCO) with a Suction Transducer. To replace a Suction Transducer with a Low Pressure Cutout Switch follow instructions in reverse.

  1. Remove LPCO switch from suction tube. Fitting on the suction tube has a Schrader valve in it, unscrew the LPCO.

  2. Disconnect the LPCO wires from J9 pins 5 and 6, remove switch and harness from unit.

  3. Install a jumper wire on J9 pins 5 to 6.

  4. Screw the Suction Transducer on the fitting on the suction tube.

  5. Route wire harness into control box.

  6. Connect wires to J1 pins 7, 8, 9.

    1. White wire to pin 7.

    2. Red wire to pin 8.

    3. Black wire to pin 9.

  7. Secure harness.

    Notice
  • Equipment Damage
  • Repair when parts are available. Do not run without low pressure protection.

If no LPCO or transducer is available for repair, add jumper wire for LPCO or configure transducer NONE.
