Operation

Line starting and line stopping

Warning

LEESON strongly recommends the installation of a
master power switch in the voltage input line (see
Power and Fuse connections, page 22). The switch
contacts should be rated at a minimum of 200% of
motor nameplate current and 250 volts.

ƽ

Line starting and line stopping (applying and removing

AC voltage input) is not recommended and should be

used for emergency stopping only. When AC voltage

input is applied to the drive, the motor accelerates to the

speed set by the speed adjust potentiometer. When AC

voltage input is removed, the motor coasts to a stop. To

“jog” a motor, install a normally-open pushbutton switch on

the ENABLE input.
