A/HM-ARC PANEL PIPING DIAGRAM
Mount the panel on a rigid vertical support, low enough for the 1/2" air line from the compressor to slope down to the air reservoir. This permits moisture to drain to the reservoir where it can be automatically ejected by the moisture valve.
 
Pipe and wire the panel into the system per applicable connection diagrams.
 
After the brake system is completely piped and wired, turn power ON. Check preset air pressures:
 
  1. Compressor supply pressure at gauge A must range from 75-90 psi. This pressure is controlled by 1PS N.C. pressure switch.

  2.  
  3. Emergency pressure step (ON when ESV solenoid valve is deenergized) is factory set at 40 psi by regulator in front of gauge B.
  1. Abnormally low compressor supply pressure is signalled by 2PS N.O. pressure switch, which must close on 60 psi increasing pressure and open on 50 psi decreasing pressure.
SPECIAL BLEEDING AND PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT INSTRUCTIONS
FOR A/HM-ARC SYSTEM
  1. Fill fluid reservoir/bleeder(s) and pressure cluster(s). Bleed the service brake circuit by holding BPB service brake bleeder pushbutton in and stroking the service brake pressure cluster(s) by repeatedly pushing BFP brake filling pushbutton. Bleed the parking brake circuit by holding BPB parking brake bleeder pushbutton in and stroking the parking brake pressure cluster(s) by repeatediy pushing the BCV bleed control valve.

  2.  
  3. After the brake system is bled and brakes are adjusted, operate brake system. Operation should
be precise, without noticeable time delay. Check operation of emergency brake stop by disconnecting power. The crane should come to a quick stop without abnormal hook swing. Adjust emergency brake pressure at gauge B if necessary. Note: twenty seconds after high pressure step application, the protection valve control pressure is reduced, causing the valve to exhaust parking brake release pressure. Parking brakes are spring applied. High pressure step is then exhausted from the service brake pressure cluster(s).
