IMPORTANT INFORMATION
1-5
Ensure that a ground wire from a proven earth ground is connected to the
ground lug in the electrical junction box on this machine. Without proper
grounding personal injury form electrical shock could occur and machine
malfunctions may be evident. Computer – controlled machines must have a
proper ground to prevent computer malfunctions.

AC Inverter Drive
Machines equipped with AC drives require special attention with regard to the operating
environment.
1.
An especially dusty or linty environment will require more frequent cleaning of the AC drive
cooling fan filter and of the AC drive itself.
2.
Power line fluctuations from sources such as an interruptible power supplies (UPS) can
adversely affect machines equipped with the AC drive. Proper suppression devices should be
utilized on the incoming power to the machine to avoid problems.
3.
A clean power supply free from voltage spikes and surges is absolutely essential for machines
equipped with the AC drive. Nonlinear inconsistencies (peaks and valleys) in the power can
cause the AC drive to generate nuisance errors. If voltage is above 230V for 200V installations
or above 440V for 400V installations, a buck/boost transformer is recommended. If voltage is
above 240V or 480V, a buck / boost transformer is required unless the factory advises
differently.
4.
Sufficient space to perform service procedures and routine preventive maintenance is
especially important for machines equipped with AC drives.
