Auto Sentry® Petro - Installation Guide 5 Site Layout
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.
All site wiring must be performed by a licensed electrician that must comply with all local and
national codes.
Permanent connections to be installed and used in accordance with building/fire codes.
Location
The Auto Sentry® Petro has been designed to operate in an outdoor environment.
The unit itself contains two hinged-panel doors, one on the front and one on the back of the
unit. The Auto Sentry® Petro must be located with enough clearance for the doors to open
easily without obstructions.
The unit must be located so that conduit connections can be easily made and the internal
components can be accessed.
Auto Sentry® Petro Power Requirements
Electrician must provide one 15 Amps @ 120 VAC dedicated circuit to power the unit.
The unit must be properly grounded. See “Grounding” on page 7 for more information.
Auto Sentry® Petro Wiring Guidelines
Run conduit and wires up through the center of the stainless-steel base into the unit.
For an existing site, use a hole saw to drill new conduit holes through stainless steel base if
necessary. File and tape edges of new holes before affixing conduit.
Use wiring ties and wire clamps inside unit to contain wires.
All conduit runs should meet local and national codes. Conduits shall be properly connected
and securely fastened to the boxes with listed conduit hubs, and should be tightened to the
torque specs of the manufacturer.
Auto Sentry® Petro - Installation Guide 6 Site Layout
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.

Auto Sentry® Petro - Installation Guide 7 Site Layout
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. A conduit ground does not provide a sufficient ground. It is
recommended that the neutral and ground bus bars be bonded together when it is not
prohibited by local codes.
The universal ground symbol identifies the grounding terminal located in the upper-left chamber,
bottom left side near terminal blocks. A second ground is marked and located in the base,
bottom-left side.
This is the dedicated 120 V/240 V line for the heat exchanger.
IMPORTANT: Improper grounding will void equipment warranty.
!
WARNING: Ground wire must be connected to the
ground lug. Failure to properly ground
the unit could result in unit failure and/or
bodily injury.
Auto Sentry® Petro - Installation Guide 8 Site Layout
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 Table2, “Max. Number of Wires (THHN) in a Given
Conduit Size”.

IN-BAY LAYOUT
*** THIS DRAWING IS ONLY INTENDED TO SHOW THE GENERAL LAYOUT AND DIMENSIONS
NECESSARY FOR THE PROPER PLACEMENT OF THE AUTO SENTRY PETRO. ANY DEVIATION
MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE AUTO SENTRY PETRO. ***
THE HEIGHT FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE AUTO
SENTRY TO THE BOTTOM OF ANY CANOPY WILL
BE DETERMINED BY THE CAR WASH, BUT
SHOULD BE ONLY SLIGHTLY GREATER THAN THE
MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE HEIGHT FOR ANY
VEHICLE TO ENTER THE IN-BAY .
CANOPY ABOVE AUTO SENTRY PETRO
NOTE: ICS DOES NOT RECOMMEND AN IDEAL DISTANCE BETWEEN THE
AUTO SENTRY PETRO AND THE ENTRANCE TO THE IN-BAY TUNNEL, BUT
DOES OFFER THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION TO THE IN-BAY OWNER FOR
THEM TO DECIDE WHAT THE APPROPRIATE DISTANCE SHOULD BE FOR
THEIR SITE:
1. THE TYPE OF IN-BAY AUTOMATIC: EACH IN-BAY AUTOMATIC IS
DIFFERENT AND THEY ALL EXPEL DIFFERENT AMOUNTS OF BOTH WATER
AND CHEMICALS, WHICH IF BLOWN ONTO THE AUTO SENTRY PETRO IN
ANY GREAT AMOUNT COULD IMPEDE THE USERS ABILITY TO SEE AND/OR
PROPERLY UTILIZE THE TOUCH SCREEN.
2. THE RELATIVE WIND DIRECTION: IF THE PREVAILING WIND BLOWS
FROM THE AUTO SENTRY PETRO TO THE BAY ENTRANCE, THEN THERE
SHOULD BE ONLY MINOR PROBLEMS FROM BLOW-BACK. IF THE
PREVAILING WIND BLOWS THROUGH THE BAY TOWARDS THE AUTO
SENTRY PETRO THEN THE AUTO SENTRY PETRO WILL BE GREATLY
AFFECTED. IF THE PREVAILING WIND IS PERPENDICULAR TO THE TUNNEL
THERE WILL AGAIN BE MINOR PROBLEMS.
3. DRYER TYPE: THE TYPE OF DRYER USED IN THE WASH WILL ALSO BE A
FACTOR. DRYERS THAT SIMPLY BLOW DOWN THE TUNNEL TOWARDS
THE AUTO SENTRY PETRO WILL FACILITATE THE BUILDUP OF WATER AND
CHEMICALS ON THE AUTO SENTRY PETRO EVEN ON WINDLESS DAYS.
4. BAY DOORS: IF BAY DOORS ARE INSTALLED AND CLOSE BETWEEN
VEHICLES, THEN THERE SHOULD NOT BE ANY PROBLEMS AT ALL AND THE
AUTO SENTRY PETRO CAN BE PLACED AS CLOSE TO THE ENTRANCE AS
POSSIBLE WHILE ALLOWING A SECOND VEHICLE TO PULL UP TO THE
AUTO SENTRY PETRO WITH ENOUGH ROOM FOR THE CUSTOMER TO
OPERATE IT WHILE THE FIRST CAR IS IN THE TUNNEL (MINIMALLY THIS
DISTANCE IS TWELVE FEET FROM THE CENTER OF THE AUTO SENTRY
PETRO TO THE NEAREST OBSTRUCTION).
ALL OF THE ABOVE FACTORS MUST BE TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION
WHEN DETERMINING THE BEST LOCATION FOR THE AUTO SENTRY PETRO
IN RELATION TO THE ENTRANCE OF THE WASH BAY. AS A GENERAL RULE,
THE FURTHER AWAY THE AUTO SENTRY PETRO IS FROM THE BAY
ENTRANCE, THE BETTER OFF IT WILL BE.

• Curb Height should be 6".
• The curbing should have bollards at both

• If a curb is not poured, a 6" riser can be
purchased and installed on the grade. The

CHAPTER 2: Molded Plastic Installation
The Auto Sentry® Petro is designed to be rugged from the inside out. The heart of this design is a
solid stainless steel metal cabinet with full air conditioning. The durable roto molded plastic
surrounds and protects the metal cabinet core and gives the Auto Sentry® Petro a fresh new style.
Brand vinyl with your logo and graphics to make the Auto Sentry® Petro your own.
After the J bolts have been set in the concrete according to your site plan, the installation of your
Auto Sentry® Petro can begin.
Attaching the Auto Sentry® Petro to the J Bolts
If your site does not have a raised curb, contact ICS to order a riser to place your Auto Sentry®
Petro upon. The riser gives the Auto Sentry® Petro the proper height that is necessary to deliver to
your customers, who are inside their vehicles, the most ergonomic, easy to reach experience at
the Auto Sentry® Petro payment terminal.
1Set 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 Figure6. If available, the extra four J bolts simply provide added security
but are not necessary. If installing a riser, see Figure5.
Items Needed: nuts and washers (site provided) for the 3/8” J bolts to attach the base.
Figure 6. J bolts in base of Auto Sentry® Petro without a riser
2Run the power cable and two Cat 6 cables (the 2nd Cat 6 is for EMV only) to the Auto Sentry®
Petro and pull up them up through the center of the Auto Sentry® Petro’s pedestal.
3As you line up the J bolts to the holes in the base of the Auto Sentry® Petro, place the Auto
Sentry® Petro on top of the concrete.
4Tighten (4) or (8) nuts and (4) or (8) washers to the J bolts.
NOTE: If you are attaching 4 J bolts in your concrete, attach #1-4 in Figure6. If you have 8 J bolts
in your concrete, then attach #1-8 in Figure6. Using 8 bolts is optional.
