Route the Tubing & Signal Cable to Waste-to-Drain Pump

Note—

It is easier to route both the WTD tubing and Signal cable at the same time.
This procedure shows a Panther with the access hole, however it will work with systems that require the access hole to be punched as well.

Parts and Materials Required

  • Tube Cutter
  • Waste to Drain Signal Cable

Procedure

  1. ClosedRoute the tubing UP through the area between the Waste Drawer Bin, Removable Waste Bottle, and Permanent Bottle.

  2.  ClosedConnect the tubing to the Removable Waste Bottle. Ensure that the tubing is below the level of the top of the Drawer.

  3. ClosedRoute the tubing alongside the vacuum tubing through the Waste Drawer.

  4. ClosedMake an opening in the grommet on the back plate.

  5. ClosedInsert the Pump Signal Cable and Pump to Waste Drawer Tubing through the grommet in the back plate as shown.

  6. ClosedRoute the cable/ tubing into the Panther System through the hole in the back panel.

  7. ClosedInstall the Back Plate on to the System

  8. ClosedRoute the cable up through the notch in the cable chase, through the chase, behind the cooling tubing and up the left side of the frame.
    Note— Ensure the Signal Cable will NOT be pinched when the mid bay drawer is closed.
  9. ClosedRoute and connect the wiring as shown below. Connectors are White, Maroon and Black.

  10. ClosedRoute and zip tie the tubing along the lower vacuum tubing as shown.

    Note—

    Remove any zip ties as needed and route the tubing within the spiral wrap.
    It is extremely important that the areas within the black tie wraps shown below are as flat as possible to ensure that the waste drawer closes easily.

  11. ClosedConnect the elbow of the pump to waste drawer tubing to the waste bottle tubing.

  12. Verify that the waste drawer closes with minimal force, adjust tubing routing as needed.
  13. ClosedInstall the tubing with grommet from the waste drawer through the bottom cut out of the mounting bracket and connect the tubing to the bottom barbed fitting (inlet) of the pump.

  14. Install the cable with grommet in the top cut out of the mounting bracket and connect the CAN cable to the WTD pump PC board.
  15. Connect the pump to drain tubing to the top barbed fitting (outlet) of the pump. Install the tubing with grommet through the middle cut out of the mounting bracket and to the drain.
    Note—
    Be sure to secure the tubing to the drain.
    If using a floor drain, tubing can be secured to the grate using a zip tie.
  16. ClosedPlace the Waste to Drain cover over the module.
    Secure the cover with the three screws from the bottom side of the module.
    Note—
    Be sure that the wiring and tubing are not pinched by the cover as it is placed on top of the components..

  17. Proceed to Waste to Drain Verification.
