Work Safe, READ THIS!
ATTENTION: FAILURE TO READ AND COMPLY WITH ALL WARNINGS, CAUTIONS AND INSTRUCTIONS PRIOR TO STARTING INSTALLATION MAY
CAUSE PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE AND VOID WARRANTY.
STOP/READ: This device must be installed in accordance with manufacturer's instructions. This unit must be in accordance with all applicable local plumbing, drainage and
electrical codes.
WARNING: Remove electrical shock hazard – DISCONNECT THE POWER BEFORE INSTALLING THE AQUAGUARD AG- 3150E to avoid electrical shock and/or
equipment damage. Do not use on circuits exceeding 24 volts to avoid damage to switch, shock or fire hazard.
CAUTION: In some situations the switch may cause the unit to rapidly cycle on and off as water level rises slowly in pan. After a brief period the unit will turn off completely.
Condensation drain must be serviced if this occurs.
CAUTION: In any installation where property damage and/or personal injury might result from an inoperative switch due to power outages, a back-up system(s) and /or alarm
should be installed.
NOTICE: The AquaGuard AG-3150E must only be installed by a licensed contractor or under the direct supervision of same. Condensation pan must be properly maintained
after installation and be kept free of foreign matter, rust or other obstructions that might interfere with the proper operation of the AquaGuard AG-3150 E switch.
WIRING THE AG-3150E:
(To ensure proper performance of product, instructions must be followed.)
1.
Ensure the power is disconnected to the unit at the main panel prior to moving to step 2.
Refer to the appliance manufacturer's installation and operating instructions and also review the wiring diagram in their instructions.
2.
Locate the red wire coming from the 24 volt thermostat "R" terminal.
3.
Disconnect red wire from the "R" terminal. Connect to one red switch lead using wire nut. Connect the second red switch lead to "R" terminal of unit. Incorporating
both switch wires in the red circuit will shut the unit completely off when water is present.
4.
Connect the black switch lead to the "C" terminal.
5.
Test the switch. (At start-up check initial amperage load.)
A. Using two fingers simultaneously touch the two metal contacts at the end of the switch. (fig. 2) Unit should stop running if switch is correctly wired.

INSTALLATION OF SENSOR AND SWITCH:
(To ensure proper performance of product, instructions must be followed.)
1.
Using the double-sided tape provided with the switch, affix the control box to the side of the unit near the primary drain port.
Note: Wrap excess wire around the wire management cleat. (fig.1)
2.
Couple the sensor to the switch using the one-way connector. (fig. 2)
3.
Test the sensor using one of the following methods:
A.
Using two fingers simultaneously touch the ring shaped contact and the end of the sensor (fig. 3) Unit should stop running if switch is correctly wired.
B.
Place the probe in water. Note: Do not submerge past the threads on the sensor. Unit should stop running if switch is correctly wired.
4.
After testing the sensor, uncouple the one way connector to facilitate installation of the sensor.
5.
Thread the sensor into an available primary drain outlet. Ensure the sensor is above the dam.
6.
Re-couple the one way connector. System should now be operational.
7.
Place the ATTENTION sticker on unit in a clearly visible location. (fig. 4)
