CHAPTER 1: Site Layout Careful planning for the layout of the site will help eliminate possible problems with the startup of your system. This document is intended to provide instructions to properly install the Auto Sentry® Petro to ensure continued, reliable system operation. ...
Conduit Wiring Guidelines All conduit must be rigid PVC or metal. High-voltage (AC) and low-voltage (DC) must not be combined in a common conduit, junction box, or wire trough. Equipment Dimensions, Measurements, and Ratings When mounting the unit, minimum clearances must meet local recommended standards. Table 1: Dimensions, Measurements and Ratings Dimension Amount...
Grounding The Auto Sentry® Petro and peripheral equipment must be properly grounded. Recommended and Accepted Grounding Methods Proper system grounding is an extremely important part of the system installation. Grounds for all system devices should be wired to the breaker panel ground bus bar which, in turn, should be grounded to a ground rod.
Wire Gauge and Conduit Size When planning the orientation of the wiring runs, follow the applicable ICS wiring diagrams and consider the layout of the components at the site. To determine conduit size needed, see the Table 2, “Max. Number of Wires (THHN) in a Given Conduit Size”.

1 Set J bolts in concrete according to your site’s layout. NOTE: If installing the Auto Sentry Petro in the concrete curbing, the first four J bolts are standard, see Figure 6. If available, the extra four J bolts simply provide added security but are not necessary.
Hardware for Roto Molded Plastic Installation Hardware if installing the Plastic Door Panels only: Depending on the shipment method, the Auto Sentry Petro may arrive without the plastics installed on the doors. The following hardware bags are ONLY necessary if installing the front and back door plastic roto molded panels on the metal doors of the Petro.

ICS Part Number Base Front Base Back Gray Cover Front Blue Cover Back Blue Cover Figure 7. Roto Molded Plastic Pieces There are two small Roto Molded gray plastic pieces #1 and #2 that fit together to cover the base of the metal pedestal.
After the Auto Sentry Petro is placed on the riser or J-bolts, and attached securely, you can follow the installation of the plastic pieces if your unit does not have the plastics on the front and back doors. If it does have plastic covering the metal doors, then skip to the next section.
