LOCATIONS USING 60 HZ POWER (NORTH AMERICA AND JAPAN)
The following power requirements and instructions are for North America, much of
Japan, and other locations using 60 Hz power. All other locations should refer to the
instructions found in “Locations Using 50 Hz Power (Locations other than North
America and Japan)” on page B-7.
The model 200i/250i dynamometer requires a dedicated 240VAC single phase power
outlet rated for 30A for proper operation. Failure to follow these instructions
could result in personal injury or damage to the dyno. Connecting the dyno to
the incorrect voltage will void the dyno warranty. Contact Dynojet with any questions.
The model 200i/250i dynamometer requires a dedicated wall receptacle which must
be wired for operation and is included with the dyno or may be shipped in advance in
a separate package. The dyno is equipped with a ten foot power cord with a twist lock
plug pre-wired on the end. The power cord is located at the front of the dyno, but is
shipped inside of the dyno. For more information on the location and routing
instructions for the power cord refer to your dyno installation guide.
The dedicated wall receptacle is a twist lock four wire grounded 30A NEMA L14-30
type and must be wired in accordance with local building codes and requirements. If
the facility does not have 120/240 volt single phase power, and it does have 120/208
volt three phase Y power, then it is acceptable to connect the four-wire receptacle
with two of the three phase lines, the neutral and the ground. With this arrangement,
there will only be 208 volts between line 1 and line 2 instead of 240 volts. This is
acceptable, but performance of the retarder will be reduced. In no case shall all
three phase lines be connected to the receptacle! Installation may require a
licensed electrician and must conform to UL and NEC safety standards.
Note: If you are installing your dyno in North America or Japan and the dyno is
not equipped with twist lock four wire grounded plug, contact Dynojet before
attempting to connect the dyno.
Local and national electrical codes require a grounded receptacle box.
• This circuit should have a dedicated 30A double pole circuit breaker.
• The dyno should be the only device connected to this circuit.
• It may be necessary to install a delayed trip breaker due to the inrush current
drawn by the high pressure blowers.
