   B. Connect “Purple”, “Normally Closed” wire of AG-1250E to Compressor’s typically “YELLOW” wire going to compressor.
   NOTE: “Purple” wire must be connected to Compressor “YELLOW” wire. Maximum capacity 24VAC/5Amp.
   C. Connect “RED”, “Input: 24VAC (HOT)” wire of AG-1250E to 24VAC (HOT) of 2 VAC Transformer or Thermostat’s “R”Terminal.
   D. Connect “BLACK”, “Input: 24VAC (Common) wire of AG-1250E to 24VAC (Common) secondary side of 24VAC Transformer or Thermostat’s “C” terminal.
   E. Optional: Connect “WHITE”, “Normally Open” wire of AG-1250E to the “WHITE” wire of
   Aqua Guard, AG-9100 External Alarm (see Figure 1.) or Home Alarm System, or Communicating System, etc… If not used, wire nut and tape.
   NOTE: “WHITE”, “Normally Open” wire maximum capacity, 24VAC/1Amp.

2. Test the AG-1250E Secondary Pan Sensor (At start-up check initial amperage load) while the HVAC unit is on and functioning correctly. See installation sensor.
   NOTE: When the AG-1250E is wired correctly, (ONLY) the Compressor unit will shut-off upon condensate detection. Air Handler will continue to run.

Drain fitting and sensor installation

1. Remove the threaded nut from the drain housing/ sensor carrier. **(fig. 1)

**

2. Install the drain housing from inside the pan MAKING SURE THE RUBBER GASKET IS ON THE INSIDE OF THE PAN. (fig. 2)

3. Screw the nut onto the drain housing from outside the pan and securely hand tighten. (fig. 3)
   

4. Place the WARNING sticker on HVAC unit in a clearly visible location.

5. Test sensor: Place sensor in secondary pan and add enough water to the pan to cover contacts (approximately ¼”). LED will illuminate and HVAC unit will stop running if wired correctly.

TITAN drain pan installation:

(To ensure proper performance of product, instructions must be followed).

1. Inspect the drain pan for any shipping damage that may have occurred. If cracked or broken, DO NOT USE.

2. Make sure drain pan exceeds equipment dimensions by a minimum of 1.5″ per side.

3. Make sure the pan-mounting surface is level and free of any debris.

4. For solid surface applications, place HVAC unit on blocks or 2-4×4 boards running the full length of the Titan pan between the HVAC unit and the Titan pan on either of the water displacement ridge. (fig. 4)
   
   5. For hanging application, place 2-4×4 boards running the full length of the Titan pan between the HVAC unit and the pan on either side of the water displacement ridge. (fig. 5)
   
   Note: Pressure treated wood will not damage the pan.

5. Local code approved steel supports are to be placed 6″ to 8″ from the end of the 4×4 as shown. (fig. 5, 6)
   
   IMPORTANT! When brazing, take precautions to prevent pan from coming in contact with torch heat or brazing materials. It’s recommended that a damp cloth be placed under the lines being brazed.

GOLIATH FURNACE horizontal drain pan installation:
(To ensure proper performance of product, instructions must be followed).

1. Refer to Furnace/Air handler instructions prior to installation.

2. Inspect the drain pan for any shipping damage that may have occurred. If cracked or broken,DO NOT USE.

3. Make sure drain pan exceeds equipment dimensions by a minimum of 1.5″ per side.

4. Make sure the pan-mounting surface is level and free of any debris.

5. Insert rubber Vibration Isolator (Goliath and Goliath Furnace series only) in the most appropriate support receptacles **(fig. 7).

   ---

   **It is not necessary to fill every receptacle.

6. Position air handler in the center of the pan. (fig. 8)
   

7. For Goliath Furnace drain pan installations, refer to manufacturer’s instructions regarding clearance specifications.

8. For furnace installations, position the furnace with the heavy side of the unit resting on “back side” of the pan, i.e. the side directly opposite of the sensor. (fig. 7)

IMPORTANT! When brazing, take precautions to prevent pan from coming in contact with torch heat or brazing materials. It’s recommended that a damp cloth be placed under the lines being brazed.

Aqua Guard Goliath Furnace series drain pans are not designed for hanging applications.
