4.1 Mounting the Solenoid
4.1.1 Connection to an ARB Air Compressor (Fig.17.)
 Remove one of the 1/8” BSP plugs from its port in the compressor
tank.
 Apply Teflon paste to the 1/8” BSP nipple on the solenoid and
insert it into the port and tighten. The solenoid should be rotated
into a position which does not obstruct any other ports on the
compressor tank.
NOTE : The coil and stem of the solenoid can be removed to
make installation easier.
NOTE : The solenoid is marked with two #1 ports. If space is
tight, a second solenoid can be “daisy-chained” off
the first one by removing the plug from the redundant
#1 port and screwing the nipple from the second
solenoid into it (Fig. 17.).
NOTE : The solenoid exhausts compressed air through the
center of the black retaining cap when the Air Locker
s disengaged. Make sure this orifice cannot be
obstructed.
 Assemble the 6mm push-in fitting into the solenoid outlet port
(stamped “2”) and hand tighten.
