Test 15 — Checking System Voltage at the Air Solenoid Panel
To determine if an air solenoid is enabled, place a
screwdriver on the solenoid coil. The solenoid is enabled if
the screwdriver is magnetically pulled toward the solenoid
coil.
Testing air solenoid valves for correct voltage and amperage
requires a standard test plug adapter (which can be ordered
from Manitowoc Cranes, Inc.) and a digital multi-meter.
Connect the test plug adapter between the solenoid valve
and electrical connector. Make the connections form the
adapter cable white (positive) and black (negative) wires to
the digital multi-meter and check for 12 volts DC while
enabling the air solenoid being tested. Load current (amps)
can be measured by making current connections (red and
white) to digital multi-meter.
