Procedure

  1. Locate the filter near the Instapac so the 3 interconnecting wires may be conveniently run. Be sure the ambient temperature is below 140°F.
  2. Remove the black wire in the Instapac control box and install #16 or larger wire from terminal 2, 3, or 4 of TB2 to the filter IN terminal.
  3. Install wire from the transfer relay or automatic by-pass relay (terminal from which black wire was removed) to filter OUT terminal.
  4. Install wire from Neutral on TB1 to the filter C terminal.
