SECTION 2.0 UPGRADE KIT PROCEDURE

2.4.8.2 Installing the In-Line Type Exhaust Valve/Large Diameter Hose

On the Model 6699-CC, the In-Line Exhaust Valve is fastened to the air manifold using 3 screws. An

O-Ring is used between the valve and the air manifold to provide an airtight seal. This method of securing the valve to the SBU results in maximum mechanical strength.

Note that the Air Manifold Assembly on all Model 6699-CC SBUs incorporate the 3 mounting holes required for the in-line valve. The holes are unused on units equipped with the “Small Diameter Air

Hose/Exhaust Valve”. Also note that US&S now supplies the In-Line Exhaust Valve (P/N: J792426-

0017) with the 3 holes pre-drilled and tapped. The following procedure provides all the information required to drill and tap existing In-Line Exhaust Valves being installed into the Upgrade Kit.

The installation is detailed in the following steps.

1. Remove the 4 Allen head screws securing the Air Manifold Assembly to the SBU. These are located as shown in Figure 2.11.

2. Partially slide out the Air Manifold Assembly and disconnect the electrical connections associated with:

A. The Solenoid Valve

Assembly on top of the In-Line Exhaust Valve as shown in Figure 2.12. To ensure correct alignment, place the O-Ring (Item D) on the valve as shown in Figure 2.13. Apply a coating of light grease (such as LubriPlate) to the O-Ring to lubricate it and to help keep it in place.

4. Rotate the exhaust valve so that the three holes are located on top of the “US&S” and part number markings “J792426-0017” as shown in Figure 2.13.

It is important to ensure the holes be

drilled as far away from the exhaust valve bolts as possible to avoid damage to the bolts.

Use a hole punch centered in the middle of the hole to mark the three spots to drill.

SECTION 2.0 UPGRADE KIT PROCEDURE

2.4.9 Installing the SBU Rear Cover Assembly

Prior to installing the Rear Cover Assembly (as shown in Figure 2.2), it is required that the SBU be fully tested per the next section, Section 2.5 – Testing the Upgraded SBU Model 6699-CC.

Once the testing is complete, install the Rear Cover as follows:

1. Carefully reinstall the Rear Cover, ensuring that the card guide bosses line up with the board edges of the Processor Board and LED Display Board. Do not force it into place.

If the SBU is a Dual Pressure type unit, first plug the auxiliary pressure transducer connector onto

J9 on the Processor Board.

2. Install the 10 Allen head screws in the rear cover. Using a 1/8" Allen wrench, tighten them uniformly, alternating back and forth from top to bottom and side to side till all are tight.

2.5 TESTING THE UPGRADED SBU MODEL 6699-CC
