General Information
Receiving -

It is your responsibility to

thoroughly inspect the equipment before
accepting the shipment from the freight company.
Check the item(s) received against the purchase
order. If any items are obviously damaged, do
not accept delivery until the freight agent notes
the damage on the freight bill.

If you find any concealed damage during
unpacking notify the freight agent. Also, leave
the shipping container intact and have the freight
agent make a visual inspection of the equipment
in order to verify damage.

Unpacking -

Remove all packing material,

wedges, or braces from within and around the
controller. Remove all packing material from the
heat sink.

Inspection -

After unpacking, check the item(s)

nameplate catalog number against the purchase
order. An explanation of the catalog numbering
system for the Bulletin 160 controller is included
as an aid for nameplate interpretation. Refer to
the following page for complete nomenclature.

IMPORTANT:Before you install and start up the
controller, inspect the mechanical integrity of the
system (e.g., look for loose parts, wires,
connections, etc.).

General Precautions

In addition to the precautions listed throughout
this manual, you must read and understand the
following statements which are general to the
system.

ATTENTION: This controller
contains ESD (Electrostatic
Discharge) sensitive parts and
assemblies. Static control precautions
are required when installing, testing,
servicing or repairing this assembly.
Component damage may result if
ESD control procedures are not
followed. If you are not familiar
with static control procedures,
reference A–B Publication
8000–4.5.2, “Guarding Against
Electrostatic Damage” or any other
applicable ESD protection handbook.

ATTENTION: An incorrectly
applied or installed controller can
result in component damage or
reduction in product life. Wiring or
application errors such as undersizing
the motor, supplying an incorrect or
an inadequate AC supply, or
excessive ambient temperatures may
result in system malfunction.

ATTENTION: Only personnel
familiar with the controller and
associated machinery should plan or
implement the installation, start–up,
and subsequent maintenance of the
system. Failure to comply may result
in personal injury and/or equipment
damage.
