Series V Control Panel
Description
The Apollo Dental Products Control Panel is designed to provide a convenient means of controlling dental equipment from inside the
office area. Features include lighted switches and an attractive brushed stainless steel mounting plate.
Master Control Panels include 50 feet of 18-3 bell wire with each switch, connecting fittings, and mounting fasteners.
Although the panel can be installed directly in drywall, many local codes require the use of a juction box. The juction box (not
provided) must be a standard three gang box measuring 2 1/2” deep by 4” high by 5 3/4” wide. With either mounting method, the
panel requires a standard three wire 24 VAC control circuit from each piece of equipment being controlled. ADP also manufactures a
complete line of remote contactor boxes for 24 VAC control.
Junction Box

the installed junction box.
