Connecting the main power
1 kN through 50 kN
MTS Insight frames rated 50 kN or less are supplied with a transformer that
reduces the voltage for frame operation; see the following illustration.
Do not connect the frame directly to the main AC line voltage.
Connecting the frame directly to the main AC line voltage will cause
equipment damage.
In North America for 220 V operation, the transformer will be equipped with
a 3-prong twist-lock plug (NEMA L6-20P). This plug must be used with a
matching locking receptacle (NEMA L6-20R) to ensure proper grounding. If
you do not have a receptacle of this type available, contact a qualified
electrician to make the connection.
In Europe for 220-240 V operation, the unit will be equipped with a plug of
type CEE 7/7 (Schuko). If you do not have a mating receptacle available,
contact a qualified electrician to make the connection.
