1.2 Wiring for Operaon
This secon covers general wiring for most common
applicaons. Important! All wiring should be done
in accordance with local regulaons and within the
specicaons of the site or equipment owner. If there
are quesons not answered by this manual or the wiring
diagrams, please call Cimarron Energy at 1-844-746-1676
for assistance.
1.2.1 Connecng the Power
The ARControl is designed to operate from either 12 or 24
volt power supplies or baeries. Power supplies should
be rated Class II and capable of sourcing a minimum of 2
amps. Baeries should be either 12 or 24 volt and have a
minimum 12 Ah (amp-hour) capacity.
1.2.2 Connecng a Solar Panel and Baery
(if required)
Solar Charing
The ARControl contains an integrated solar charger. The
solar charger is capable of charging a 12 volt 12 Ah SLA
(sealed lead acid) baery. A solar panel rated for 12 volt
systems with a maximum current output of 2 amps is
recommended. Installaons that require more charging
current than provided by the internal solar charger should
ulize a properly sized external solar charger and baery
(Image 1.2.1).
Power Pack
The standard ARControl Power Pack (PN: 1960-160)
contains a 12 volt 12 Ah SLA baery in a sturdy DIN-
mountable bracket and a 5 wa 12 volt solar panel with
9 feet of cable and a mounng bracket. The baery and
bracket clips onto the boom DIN rail in the ARControl
enclosure. The solar panel can be mounted with a U-bolt
to a pole or to any other structure that
can accommodate the mounng holes. Be sure to
locate the solar panel south facing in an area free from
obstrucon of the sun throughout the enrety of the day
(Image 1.2.2).
Fusing
The ARControl has three user-replaceable fuses. The fuse
on the DIN rail mounted terminal block that connects to
BATTERY IN on the ARControl ulizes a 5 amp ATC or ATO
fuse. The ARControl board is fused at both the POWER
PORT and MODULE PORT with 2 amp ceramic fuses (PN:
3181-002). The POWER PORT fuse protects all of the valve
outputs and the digital outputs. The MODULE PORT fuse
protects the power output to the Ignion Module. There
are two spare 2 amp ceramic fuses located in the SPARE
FUSES locaon on the ARControl board.
