Never use air nozzle for anything other than for its intended use.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Installation Instructions:
Determine location to mount unit (“DANGER” “THIS EQUIPMENT INCORPORATES PARTS SUCH AS
SWITCHES, MOTORS, OR THE LIKE THAT TEND TO PRODUCE ARCS OR SPARKS THAT CAN CAUSE AN
EXPLOSION. WHEN LOCATED IN GASOLINE-DISPENSING AND SERVICE STATIONS INSTALL AND USE
AT LEAST 20 FEET (6 M) HORIZONTALLY FROM THE EXTERIOR ENCLOSURE OF ANY DISPENSING PUMP
AND AT LEAST 18 INCHES (450 MM) ABOVE A DRIVEWAY OR GROUND LEVEL.”
Run service to that location

Figure 3: SSAC timer setup
Figure 3 shows an SSAC timer set for 1 coin to start and 3.8
minutes per coin for a total run time of 3.8 minutes (3 minutes
and 48 seconds).
TIMER SETUP – SSAC TIMERS
Note: “AE” and “AN” model SSAC timers are accumulating
timers. During use, timing can be extended proportionately
by adding more coins.
The SSAC timer has two adjustable settings: Time per coin (in
minutes) and number of coins to start.
Time per coin:
Time per coin is the amount of time the unit will run per coin
inserted and can be set from 0.1 minutes (6 seconds) to 12.7
minutes (12 minutes and 42 seconds) in increments of 6 seconds
by turning on the correct switches until their values equal the
desired time.Refer to Tables 2 and 3 (pages 11-12) for standard
timer and coin settings. For custom settings, follow the steps
below:
1. Figure the total time your vac will run (in minutes) and divide
that number by the number of coins to start. This is your
time per coin. Round up or down to the nearest tenth of a
minute.
2. Subtract the largest value switch (initially 6.4) from your time
per coin.
a. If the resulting number is zero, move the switch to
the “on” position and set all remaining un-set switches
in the “off” position. Your timer is now set.
b. If the resulting number is positive, move the switch
into the “on” position. Using the resulting number as
your new time per coin, repeat step 2 with the next
largest switch value.
c. If the resulting number is negative, set the switch in
the “off” position and repeat step 2 using the next
largest switch value.
Coins to start:
Coins to start is the amount of coins needed to activate the
timer and can be set from one to seven coins in increments of
one coin. Refer to Table
2 (page 10) for switch settings

8
TIMER SETUP – INFITEC TIMERS
The Infitec timer has two adjustable settings: Total run time
(in seconds) and number of coins to start.
Total run time:
Total run time is the amount of time the unit will run
once activated and can be set from 1 second to 1023 seconds
(17 minutes and 3 seconds) in increments of 1 second by
turning on the correct switches until their values equal the
desired time.Refer to Tables 2 and 3 (pages 11-12) for
standard timer and coin settings. For custom settings, follow
the steps below:
1. Figure the total time your vac will run (in seconds).
This is your total run time. Round up or down as
desired.
2. Subtract the largest value switch (initially 512) from
your total run time.
a) If the resulting number is zero, move the
switch to the “on” position and set all remaining
un-set switches in the “off” position. Your timer
is now set.
b) If the resulting number is positive, move the
switch into the “on” position. Using the
resulting number as your new time per coin,
repeat step 2 with the next largest switch value.
c) If the resulting number is negative, set the
switch in the “off” position and repeat step 2
using the next largest switch value.
Coins to start:
Coins to start is the amount of coins needed to activate
the timer and can be set from one to 15 coins in
increments of one coin. Refer to Table 2 (page 10) for
switch settings.
