SECTION 3: INSTALLATION
Installation of the ROBERTS GORDON
®
 
ULTRAVAC™ Controller and the associated external 
electrical wiring must be done by an electrician 
qualified in the installation of control systems for 
heating equipment.
3.1 Preparation
Before installing the controller, observe the following:
3.1.1 Ensure that you have a copy of the site layout 
for the project that clearly identifies the separate 
zones.
3.1.2 Familiarize yourself with the Controller and Vari-
able Frequency Drive component names and loca-
tions. 
3.2 Positioning the ROBERTS GORDON
®
 
ULTRAVAC™ Controller and Variable Frequency 
Drive
3.2.1 Choose a mounting location for the controller.  
For serviceability, it is convenient to mount the con-
troller and variable frequency drive at occupant level 
in the vicinity of the pump. The variable frequency 
drive should not be more than 50' (15 m) from the 
pump.
Do not mount controller or VFD outdoors. VFD 
must not be installed where subjected to adverse 
conditions such as: combustible, oily, or hazard-
ous vapors or dust; excessive moisture or dirt; 
vibration. To avoid damage from possible drips, 
do not mount controller or VFD directly beneath 
pump. Models with NEMA 4 rated enclosures will 
withstand exposure to dust, dirt and water.
VFD should be mounted in locations where the 
maximum ambient temperature does not exceed 
104°F (40°C). Avoid installing the VFD in mezza-
nines, direct sunlight, or near external heat 
sources because these locations usually have 
unpredictable temperature rises.
Note that the maximum distance from the controller 
to any sensor is 300' (120 m). For longer distances, 
larger gauge wire may be needed (Consult your local 
distributor). For multiple controllers, maximum length 
of communication wire from the first controller to the 
last is 4000' (1219 m) without the use of a repeater. A 
repeater is available for wire length greater than 
4000' (1219 m). 
between the RS-485 converter to the controller 
should not be more than 400' (122 m) in length. 
3.2.2 Position the controller and VFD at occupant 
level for ease of service. To avoid electrical 
interferences with communications bus, do not 
mount VFD directly next to controller. Allow 2'   
(.6 m) minimum between controller and VFD. If 
the VFD is more than 100' (150 m) from the pump 
a load reactor (P/N 90602460) must be used.

DANGER
Electrical Shock Hazard
Disconnect electric before service.
Controller must be properly grounded to an 
electrical source.
Failure to follow these instructions can 
result in death or electrical shock.
