The controller is wall mounted by using four (4) wall anchors, 2 anchors for the top ears and
2 anchors for the bottom mounting brackets. The ears and brackets are dimensionally on the
same center-line for ease in mounting.
1
5. Using either the dimension print or by measuring the distance between the center lines of
the 2 lower bracket slots, transcribe this dimension onto the wall. Note: The bottom edge of
the enclosure should be a minimum of 12” (305 mm.) from the floor in case flooding of the
pump room occurs.
6. Drill and put 2 anchors into the wall for the 2 lower bracket slot mounts.
7. Mark on the wall, the location of the holes in the upper mounting ears.
8. Drill and put 2 anchors into wall for the upper mounts.
9. Install bolts and washers in 2 lower anchors, leaving a gap between the washer and wall.
10. Lift the controller and place the bottom mounting slots down onto the 2 lower anchor bolts.
Do not tighten bolts.
11. Align holes in upper mounting ears and install 2 bolts and washers in anchors.
12. Shim anchors as necessary to ensure rear of enclosure is vertically level and enclosure is
not stressed. Tighten all 4 anchor bolts.
13. Check to be sure enclosure door opens and closes freely and that enclosure is level.

Floor/Base Plate Mount—


Procedure–
MOUNTING LEGS (OPTIONAL - IF ORDERED)
Procedure—
1. Unpack legs and mounting hardware.
2. Inspect legs for damage.
3. Gently lay the controller on its back, using protection so the paint is not damaged. It is best
to lay the controller in a location that is out of the way from actual mounting location.
4. Attach each leg to the bottom of the enclosure using the provided hardware . Tighten nuts
securely.
5. After legs are securely attached, stand the controller up on its legs for mounting. Each leg
has 3 holes on the bottom for anchoring to the floor or base plate.

WARNING
RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY
Controller is not free standing! Controller must be
secured to floor or wall surface before opening
door or operating.

Note—Consult the appropriate job plans to determine controller mounting location.


Refer to the controller dimension print for necessary mounting dimensions.
The controller is floor/base plate mounted by using the 3 pre-drilled holes in each leg. The
holes are dimensionally on the same center line for ease in mounting.
6. Using either the dimension print or by measuring distance between the center lines of the
holes on one leg, transcribe these dimensions onto the floor/base plate.
7. Drill 3 holes in floor/base plate for anchoring the leg.
8. Mark location of holes for opposite leg and drill 3 more holes.
9. Secure controller to floor/base plate with bolts and washers and tighten.
10. Check to be sure enclosure door opens freely and that enclosure is level.

MAKING ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS


Important Precautions—
Prior to making any field connections:
1. Open door of enclosure and inspect internal components and wiring for any signs of frayed
or loose wires or other visible damage.
2
2. Verify that the controller information is what is required on the project:
• Firetrol catalog number
• Engine voltage and polarity of grounding
• Incoming line voltage and frequency
• Maximum system pressure
3. Project electrical contractor must supply all necessary wiring for field connections in accor-
dance with the National Electrical Code, local electrical code and any other authority having
jurisdiction.
4. Refer to the appropriate field connection drawing for wiring information.

Procedure—
All engine connections, remote alarm functions and AC wiring must be brought into the en-
closure at the bottom. (See dimension drawing for exact location). A gland plate is supplied for
ease of installation.
Proceed as follows:
1. Use a hole (conduit) punch, not a torch nor a drill, and punch a hole in the gland plate for
the size conduit being used.
2. Install necessary conduit.
Warning—Use only gland plate for conduit entrance. Controller warranty is VOID if any other
location is used.
Note—All field wiring connections are connected to terminal blocks located in the controller.
Terminals for interconnection to the corresponding numbered terminals on the engine termi-
nal block are located between the circuit breakers (CB1, AC power and CB2-CB3, battery
connections). Not all engines require all terminals to be connected. Reference engine wiring
diagram and Field Connection Diagram for appropriate information. Other terminals are for
connecting remote alarm functions and optional features are located on the controller relay
board(s).
AC line connections are made to terminals L1 and L2 (1CB). A ground lug, marked “G” is
provided for grounding. This AC circuit should come from a source having a circuit breaker
sized in accordance with the National Electrical Code and other local codes.
3. Pull all wires necessary for engine connections, remote alarm functions, AC power and all
other optional features. Allow enough excess wire inside enclosure to make up connections
to the terminal block. Be sure to consult the appropriate field connection diagram. Make
sure AC Circuit Breaker (CB1) and Battery Circuit Breakers (CB2, CB3) are turned “Off”.
Warning—Do not use controller wire way for routing external wiring.
Wire Sizes—
• Use #14 AWG wire minimum for all electrical connections except for battery charger con-
nections. (Battery chargers connected to terminals 6, 8, and 11.)
• On terminals 6, 8, and 11, use the following information to determine wire sizes:
Linear feet (in conduit run) Maximum
from controller to terminal Wire Size
block on engine
0’ to 25’ (0 to 7.62 m.) #10 AWG (6 mm2)
25’ to 50’ (7.62 m. to 15.24 m.) #8 AWG (10 mm2)

4. Make all field connections to remote alarm functions and any other optional features.
5. Verify AC line voltage and frequency with the controller data plate on the enclosure door prior
to energizing AC power.

3
6. Connect AC power to “L1” and “L2” (CB1) —120 Volt, 60 Hz or as called for on controller
data plate.
7. Connect remote normally open START push-button wires to terminals “13” and “14” (if used).
8. If deluge valve is used, remove jumper from terminals “16” and “17”. Connect wires from
normally closed contact on deluge valve to terminals “16” and “17”.
9. Connect remote normally open shutdown interlock wires to terminals “15” and “16” (if used).
A factory installed jumper will be installed on these terminals. If installing a interlock, this
jumper may be removed, otherwise leave jumper in place until the set up of the Mark IIXG is
complete.
10. Check to see that all connections are both correctly wired (in accordance with field con-
nection diagram) and tight.
11. Close enclosure door.

MAKING SYSTEM PRESSURE CONNECTIONS


The FTA1100 controller requires one (1) “System Pressure” connection from the system pip-
ing to the enclosure. The connection fitting, 1/2” FNPT, is provided on the bottom, external side
of the enclosure for this purpose.
The “Test Drain” connection, located to the left of the “System Pressure” connection, should
be piped to a vented drain or to waste. The “Test Drain” is used only briefly during the weekly
test cycle.
Note—Test drain line must be free flowing. Do not use any valves or plugs on this line.
Refer to NFPA 20 for correct field piping procedure of sensing line between the pumping
system and the controller.

PROGRAMMING THE MARK IIXG


1. Energize (Turn “ON”) circuit breakers 1CB (AC Power), 2CB & 3CB (Battery Connections).
Follow the programming instructions included in this manual to set pressure, timers, etc...
2. When all programming is complete and the unit is ready to put into service, remove interlock
jumper wire from terminals 15 & 16. This jumper is factory installed to prevent starting of the
engine during installation and setup.

Mark IIxg. The last 3000 events are kept in this memory. The events are stored in the order that they occur, with
the most recent being “first” (the last event that occurred will be event #1). The following keys are used to browse
through the event log:
Move forward through the events one at a time (1 - 2 - 3....etc)
Move backward through the events one at a time (55 - 54 - 53....etc)
Move forward through the events ten at a time (60 - 70 - 80....etc)
