REMOVAL
1. Remove the four screws (figure 1, item 1) that secure the junction box cover (figure 1, item 2). Remove the
cover.
WARNING
Repair the drains only after the affected circuit has been secured, locked out, and
tagged out. Performing repairs with the circuit energized may result in injury.
2. Use a multimeter to check for available voltage at the wiring terminals inside the junction box. If voltage is
present, ensure that the proper circuit breaker is OFF, locked out, and tagged out (FM 55-502). If no voltage
is present, continue with the procedure.
3. Label and disconnect the wiring (figure 1, item 3) for the affected automatic drain. Loosen the packing gland
(figure 1, item 4), and remove the wiring from the junction box.
4. Unscrew the automatic drain valve (figure 2, item 1) from its piping (figure 2, item 2). The valve's wiring
(figure 2, item 3) is integral to the valve and is removed with the valve.
