Introduction
Overview
The electric valve and controller display are designed with precision and ease of
use in mind. Rugged design withstands the demands of outdoor apparatus use.
Modern electronics, display technology and tactile buttons provide enhanced
user experience with intuitive and familiar operation. Monitor the valve position
and sensor readouts on a full-color, high brightness, high contrast Liquid Crystal
Display (LCD). Use keypad buttons to open, close and adjust valve position. Utilize
the built-in graphic menu system to setup, calibrate, customize your settings,
change available options, access usage logs and diagnostic information.
APEX 100 - Valve control with valve position indicator.
APEX 200 - Valve control with valve position indicator and pressure display.
APEX 300 - Valve control with valve position indicator, pressure display and digital
flow display.

General Description
Components
The Electric Valve System consists of the following components:
APEX Valve Controller
Pressure Sensor
Paddlewheel Flow Sensor and Mounting Assembly
Valve with E14X (or E16X for EB6D) Actuator
Cables
APEX Valve Controller
The valve control and display module is sealed to an IP67 rating, and has dimensions of
5 3/4 inches high by 3 3/4 inches wide by 2 11/16 inches deep. All controls and indicators are
located on the front of the display module. (Refer to Controls and Indicators.)
Pressure Sensor
The pressure sensor provides a pressure reading to the valve controller. It is mounted on the
downstream side of the discharge valve. The electrical connector is waterproof and molded
into the pressure sensor housing.
Paddlewheel Flow Sensor
The flow sensor provides a discharge flow reading to the valve controller. It is mounted in the
discharge piping. Placement of the sensor in the piping is critical to obtaining accurate flow
rate information; refer to the installation procedures for detailed information on mounting
locations. The electrical connector is waterproof and molded into the flow sensor housing.
Valve with E14X (E16X for EB6D)Actuator
It is installed in the apparatus plumbing and connects to the valve controller. In some
configurations, it will connect with flow and pressure sensors.
Cables
Interconnecting cables are provided. Refer to Electrical Connections (Wiring) section.

Figure 1. Controls and Indicators
Controls and Indicators
The display and pushbuttons controls are accessible on the front of the unit.
(Refer to Figure 1.)
Valve Position Indicator
When the valve is fully closed the red closed indicator will be on. The bar graph indicates the
valve position as it moves from closed to fully open.
Valve Control Buttons
Three buttons control the valve motor to open and close the valve. The preset button will set the
valve to a programmed position. Menu button is used for menu functions.
Pressure Display (APEX200/300)
This onscreen pressure gauge will indicate pressure in PSI, kPa, or Bar.
Flow Display (APEX300)
This display will indicate the flow rate in GPM or LPM.
Color-Coded Visor
The Visor helps prevent water and dirt from running down the display. Also can be used to
color code the valve controller to match the corresponding discharge.

Installation
The APEX valve controller is compatible with valves used with 1.5 to 8 inch piping.
!
NOTE: Plumbing systems are always unique and may cause small deviations in
the factory calibration. If necessary a calibration procedure can be performed
after installation.
Install Valve Controller
The valve controllers are interchangeable. It is recommended that the calibration be checked
if modules are swapped.
1. Measure and mark mounting location for control module panel cutout and mounting
screw holes. Make sure there is clearance behind the panel for the display and cables
before cutting holes. Refer to Figure 2 for layout and dimensions.
2. Cut out a mounting hole according to the cutout diagram in Figure 2, and drill three
holes (clearance or tapped) for #10 mounting screws.
3. Connect the cables and wires. (Refer to Wiring section.)
4. *Place control module into position and secure with three screws.
Use #10 size, Phillips pan head type screws with a minimum length of 1.25 inch.
!
*NOTE: The Visor must be placed onto the valve controller module housing
prior to inserting mounting screws and attaching to your apparatus.

Install Pressure Sensor (APEX 200 and 300)
The pressure sensor is mounted on the downstream side of the discharge valve.
Pressure sensors are interchangeable. It is recommended that the calibration be checked if
pressure sensors are swapped.
Note: Install the pressure sensor upright so water in the end of the sensor is able to drain
back into the pipe.
1. Screw the sensor into a 1/4-18 NPT hole.
Caution: Do not use the main body that houses the electronics to tighten the pressure sensor.
Damage to the sensor may occur.
2. Tighten the sensor with a 3/4-inch wrench on the lower hex fitting.
3. Connect the pressure sensor cable from the valve actuator to the sensor. (Refer to
Wiring section.)
