API INSTALLATIONS
Note 1: The yellow arrow dial, located toward the
center of the API circuit board, needs to be facing F.
Note 2: To test the POL sensor, take a moist paper
towel and touch the 2 metal sensor pins. The Leak
Defense System will go into alarm and the solid-state
relays should turn off the well pump. Push the reset
button on the API before pressing Clear Alarm on the
Leak Defense control panel.
Note 3: When alarm is active, a 6-volt signal is being
applied across each of the solid-state relay’s terminal 3
and 4, from the API. This causes the normally-closed
solid-state relay to open and shut off the pump.
Connecting POL and SS relays
to API
This application is typical for when a 240VAC (up to
50amp) well pump or pressure pump is wanting to be
disconnected when a leak is detected with a POL or when
the LDS valve closes upon suspected water leak.
For terminals 1 and 2 of solid-state relay #1, split a hot leg
of the well pump wire and connect one side of the split
wire to terminal 1 and the other to terminal 2. For terminals
1 and 2 of solid-state relay #2, split the other hot leg of the
well pump wire and connect one side of the split wire to
terminal 1 and the other to terminal 2.
On the API place a jumper between +REF and NO on
either of the API relays.
Wire the solid-state relay input terminals in series as
follows.
Take COM of the same API relay and run a wire to terminal
3 of solid-state relay #1. Then take terminal 4 of solid-state
relay #1 and connect it to 3 of solid-state relay #2, with a
jumper wire. Then take terminal 4 of solid-state relay #2
and run a wire back to –REF on the API.
If you purchased a wired POL, the POLD and GND
terminals of the API get connected to the two wires of
the POL sensor. No connection necessary for wireless
POLD sensor.
