SubDrive Duplex Alternator

Controller Location Selection

The following recommendations will help in the selection of the proper location
of the alternator unit.
1. A tee is recommended for mounting the two pressure sensors at
one junction. If a tee is not used, the pressure sensors should
be located within 6 feet (1.8 meters) of the pressure tank to
minimize pressure fluctuations. The distance between the
pressure sensors should be kept to a minimum. There should be
no elbows between the tank and the pressure sensors.
2. The unit should be mounted on a sturdy supporting structure
such as a wall or supporting post.
3. When installed properly, the alternator enclosure is suitable for
indoor or outdoor installations (see Installation Procedure section on page 9).
4. The alternator should only be mounted with the wiring end
oriented downward. The controller should not be placed in
direct sunlight.
5. The mounting location should have access to 115 VAC electrical
supply. For outdoor installations the indoor/outdoor transformer
must be connected to a GFCI outlet and follow all national,
state, and local electrical codes. Ensure that requirements of
NEC 406.8 are met.
6. To assure maximum weather protection, the unit must be
mounted vertically with the cover snaps engaged.
