SIZE FACE P - PIPE The use of dielectric grease is not recommended on any NORAC electrical connections. To ensure all stainless steel hardware does not gall or seize apply a light coating of the supplied Permatex Anti-seize grease (M06) to all threaded parts upon installation.
4 Ultrasonic Sensor Installation Bracket Assembly Assemble the breakaway sensor bracket as illustrated in Figure 4, following the instructions below. Figure 4: Breakaway Bracket Assembly 1. Compress the spring and insert it together with the collar into the base. 2. Slide the tube through the assembled part. 3.

Ultrasonic Sensor Serial Number Arrangement When installing the sensors, start with the smallest serial number on the left-hand side, and proceed to the largest serial number on the right hand side. Each sensor has a serial number stamped on the sensor housing. Apply a light coating of the supplied Permatex Anti-seize grease (M06) to all threaded parts upon installation.

Ultrasonic Sensor Mounting Guidelines The following guidelines will ensure optimal sensor performance and prevent sensor measurement error. These rules should be followed for both the wing sensors and the main lift (middle) sensor. 1. In its lowest position, the sensor must be 9 inches (23 cm) or more from the ground (A). 2.

If the sensor is mounted to this portion of the boom, the system will force the boom downwards towards the ground as the boom folds backwards. 4. Mount the NORAC ultrasonic sensor into the sensor bracket and run the sensor cable through the sensor tube.
5 Roll Sensor Installation Bracket Assembly 1. To mount the roll sensors, the roll sensor brackets will have to be bent. The brackets are supplied with a 90° bend and must be bent back to a 45° bend. 2. Securely mount the roll sensors to the included roll sensor brackets using the #6 machine screws.

Roll Sensor Mounting Guidelines: Front Mounted Rigid Booms 1. When mounting the roll sensors, mount the roll sensor with the temperature probe on the boom and the roll sensor without the temperature probe on the chassis near the sprayer cab. Figure 10: Roll Sensor Mounting on a Trapeze Suspended Boom 2.

Temperature Probe Once the block is mounted, fasten the temperature probe from E03 to the NORAC valve block using the included 3/8x1/2” bolt as illustrated in Figure 12. Figure 12: NORAC Valve Block with Temperature Probe Installed...
6 Electrical Installation 1. Install the UC4.5 Control Panel (E01) in the cab of the sprayer. Mount the panel where it will be clearly visible and within easy reach of the operator. Figure 13: Cable Configurations: C01, C06 and C10 2.

8. Connect the valve cable (C03) to C04. Connect the 2-pin connectors on C03 to the NORAC valve block, as shown in Figure 14. 9. The connectors on the valve cable (C03) are marked RIGHT UP, LEFT UP, RIGHT DOWN and LEFT DOWN.
Valve Assembly 1. On a clean surface remove the plastic plugs from the block. 2. Install two 6MB-6MJ (F05) fittings on the “P” and “T” ports on the NORAC block. Tighten to 18 ft-lbs (24 Nm). 3. Insert the two orifices (F08) into the “B” ports with the notch facing out.

1. After the NORAC valves are mounted, the hydraulic hoses and fittings can be plumbed. The plumbing for the hydraulic circuit is shown schematically in Figure 3. 2. Connect hoses from the NORAC “P” and “T” ports to the “P” and “T” ports on the sprayer valve block using fittings F03.
8 Software Setup 1. Start up the sprayer and test the sprayer’s functionality. The NORAC control panel does not need to be powered on for the original boom function switches to operate. Unfold the booms and raise/lower each boom and the main section.
