• Turn off the electrical supply to the disposer before

attempting any work on it. Use a voltmeter or

circuit tester to ensure that power is off.

• All installation work must conform to local

plumbing and electrical codes.

• All control centers and disposers must be carefully

and permanently grounded.

• A properly fused disconnect must be installed at

the electrical supply source for the control center.

• The control center’s door disconnect must be in the

off position before the panel door can be opened.

Power is still present at the disconnect until power

is turned off at the electrical supply source.

LINE VOLTAGE

Connect the incoming line power to the electrical disconnect switch and connect the disposer motor to labeled terminal blocks in the control center. Use the appropriate voltage and phase electrical connection diagram, Figure 3, 4, 5, or 6.

LOW VOLTAGE

The AS-101K control center uses low voltage (24 V) to operate contactor coils, solid state control circuit, push buttons, and solenoid valves. Red wires denote a 24 V circuit.

REMOTE CONTROL STATION

Any number of remote control stations can be used. Mount remote controls within sight of the disposer

per local codes. Refer to Figure 7. Remove jumper wire between #2 and #3 when using remote control station.

PROPERTY DAMAGE

•Ensure that control center voltage and phase match the disposer motor and electrical supply. Check name plates on disposer and control centers for voltage and phase specifications.

•Refer to the control center wiring diagrams in this manual for correct connection.

•Use NEMA 4 watertight electrical connectors

(not supplied) when making electrical connections to the control center.

WATER SOLENOID VALVE

Two 24 V solenoid valves are supplied with all control centers. Connect one 24 V solenoid valve (in line with the 1 GPM flow control) to terminal 4 and 13, connect the other 24 V solenoid valve (in line with the 7 GPM flow control) to terminal 4 and 14. See Figure 7.

Wire per local electrical code using 7/8" diameter holes in bottom of control center cabinet and install NEMA 4 water-tight electrical connectors.

After completing the connections, replace all terminal block shields, close door, and fasten all locking clamps. Replace disposer motor cover. Turn on power.

Please read the disposer operating instructions and train your personnel before operating the disposer. The operating instructions include:

•Disposer operation

•How to restart the disposer after a jam condition

PERSONAL INJURY

•Allow only trained personnel to operate disposer.

•Use baffles and guarding to avoid splashing and ejection of materials.

•Do not put fingers or hands into the disposer.

•When attempting to remove objects from a disposer, use long-handled tongs or pliers.

•Turn power off before clearing a jam, removing an object from the disposer or pressing the red reset button. (See Troubleshooting).

•Disconnect electricity before adjusting set points.
