4.2. Installing the dump valve sensor
The controller uses a dump valve sensor (A) with a
magnet (B) to determine demand. When the dump
valve is closed, indicating demand, the magnet is
pushed towards the sensor. The presence of the
magnet near the sensor indicates demand and
triggers a new conveying cycle.
When the dump valve is open, indicating that no
material is needed, the magnet is pushed up and
away from the sensor. If the sensor does not
detect the magnet, it does not trigger a new
conveying cycle.
To install the dump valve sensor, insert the appliance plug of the dump valve sensor into
the connector (Figure 3) on the lower side of the controller.
