Example:
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. Permatex Anti-seize lubricant is preferred, but other similar anti-seize
products may be used.

5Ultrasonic Sensor Installation
5.1 Ultrasonic Sensor Serial Number Arrangement
When installing the UC5 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 UC5 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.

5.2 Main Lift Sensor Installation
The general mounting rule for UC5 ultrasonic sensors must be followed for the
main lift sensor.
Figure 7: Main Lift Bracket Assembly
1. The Main Lift bracket may need to be cut down for this installation. See Figure 8.
2. Mount the ML bracket (Item B11). Ensure sensor cable is routed properly and securely
fastened.
3. Mount the Ultrasonic sensor to the bracket. Ensure the sensor has a clear view of the
ground. Ensure sensor cable is securely fastened with cable-ties.

6Module Installation
An optional module mounting bracket kit is available for purchase from NORAC. The
mounting brackets are compatible with control modules and input modules. One kit is needed
per module.

6.1 Control Module
1. Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 9.
2. Securely mount the control module (E01) on the sprayer, within reach of the display
terminal connections, using screws, cable ties or optional brackets.
3. Connect the display terminal to the control module using the display CANbus cable. This
cable must be connected to the end of the control module with only one Deutsch
connector.
4. Route cable C02 from one of the control module CAN connectors towards the valve
block. This will connect to the valve module.
5. Route cable C01 from the other CANbus connector towards the DAH09 enclosure. This
will connect to the input module.
Figure 9: Control Module Mounting

6.2 Valve Module
1. Install the valve module (E02) to the top of the NORAC valve block. Orient the 6-pin
Deutsch (CANbus) connectors towards the “P” and “T” ports with the label facing up.
Figure 10: Valve Module
2. Verify the valve coil connectors are oriented vertically (Figure 11).
Figure 11: Align Coils
3. Place the valve module between the valve coils. Slide a valve mounting bracket over the
connectors of the valve module and the valve coil connectors. This may require flexing the
plastic bracket slightly (Figure 12).
4. Ensure the bracket is pushed over the connectors far enough to allow the clips to engage
behind the valve connectors.

5. Connect the valve module CANbus to cable C02 from the control module. Route cable
C01 from the other CANbus connector to the 8-way coupler.
6. With the valve module securely mounted to the valve block, connect the valve cables (C10),
to the valve coils. Insert the 2-pin plugs (P01) into the unused 2-pin connectors on the
valve module.
7. Connect the temperature probe to the valve block using the supplied 3/8” x 1/2” hex bolt.

6.3 Input Module
1. Install the input module (E03) on the boom near the enclosure that houses the HARDI
DAH09 PCB. Secure it to the boom using cable ties or optional brackets.
2. Connect the free end of the CANbus cable (C01) from the control module to the input
module.
3. Connect cable C35 to the 12 pin Deutsch connector of C20. Connect the other end of
C35 to the Thru 2 connector on the side of the input module.
4. Connect the remaining connector on C20 to the Thru 1 connector on the input module.
5. Insert the 12 pin plug (P02) into the OEM 3 connector on the input module.
Figure 14: Input Module Connections
6. Run the DB15 connector and the wires with the spade connectors of C12 to the DAH 09
PCB by passing it through a hole in the enclosure. Seal the hole using the weather-proof
strain relief fitting.
7. Connect the DB15 connector of cable C12 to the DAH09 DB15 connector.
8. Connect the red wire with spade connector on C12 to the Switched 12VCC on the
DAH09 board (Figure 15).
9. Connect the black wire with spade connector on C12 to the GND on the DAH09 board
(Figure 15).

6.4 Optional Switch Box
An optional remote switch box is available if you would like to manually control the roll
function and auto/manual function from a switch in the cab. The switch box and cable can be
ordered using the following part numbers:
Item Part Number Name Quantity
C25 44602-01 BOX SWITCH UC4 REMOTE HAND CONTROL VER.1 RMR 1
C26 43240-26 CABLE UC5 SWITCH BOX 1
C27 44658-98 CABLE UC4 3M EXTENSION 16-PIN AMP 1
1. Disconnect the connector from cable C20 that is installed in the Thru 1 connector on the
input module. Remove the wedge from the face of the 12 pin Deutsch connector on C20.
The wedge is removed by inserting a small flat implement underneath the wedge and lifting
it up.
2. Remove the pin in position 2 and replace it with the Roll CW pin from C26. Remove the
pin in position 5 and replace it with the Roll CCW pin from C26. Insert the wedge back
into the plug. Connect the connector to the Thru 1 connector on the input module.
3. Remove P02 from the OEM 3 connector. Connect the 12 pin Deutsch plug on C26 to the
OEM 3 connector on the input module. Route the other end of the cable to the hitch of
the sprayer.
4. Attach the switch box (C25) inside the cab and connect it to cable C26. An extra label is
provided with the switch box if you prefer to remove the switches from the housing and
mount them in the existing sprayer switch panel.
* Some sprayer types may not use all the switch functions.

7Hydraulic Installation
Ensure all pressure has been bled from the system before disconnecting any lines
or fittings. Hydraulic pressure will exist on the wing tilt circuits unless the wings
are being supported by other means. The hydraulic installation may be performed
with the wings in transport position, resting on the ground or with the tilt cylinders
fully extended.
Component failure due to oil contamination is not covered under the NORAC UC5
system warranty. It is recommended that a qualified technician perform the
hydraulic installation.

block. Tighten to 18 ft-lbs (24 Nm).
4. Install the 6MBP (F03) plugs into the “A” ports on the NORAC block and tighten to 18 ft-
lbs (24 Nm).
5. Install the orifice (F04) into the “B” port of third station of the NORAC block with the
notch facing in. Install the orifice (F06) into the “A” port of third station of the NORAC
block with the notch facing in. Install two 3/8” x 1/4” BSPP (F02) or 6MB 6MOR (F05)
fittings into the “A” and “B” ports of the 3rd station on the NORAC block. Tighten to 18 ft-
lbs (24 Nm).
