Installation/Wiring

3. Connect a suitable grounding conductor to the motor frame and the

remote control station (if used). Run each conductor unbroken to earth
ground. When adding more than one grounding conductor wire to a
single chassis ground, twist the conductors together. Tighten these
grounding connections to the proper torque as shown in

Table 1.E

.

4. Close the door of the enclosure.

Coolant Considerations

LPM15 drives use o-ring face seal fittings for connection to the coolant
supply. The coolant is typically clean water with a corrosion inhibitor as
described in this section.

Considerations Affecting all Frame Sizes

LPM15 drive coolant connections are made with o-ring face seal fittings.
The copper tube running from the heatsink to the o-ring fittings is covered
with closed cell foam insulation.

The mating connection is shown in

Figure 1.8

. The mating process includes

the following steps:

1. Coat the o-ring with the o-ring lubricant. The goal is a thin film covering

the entire o-ring surface. Avoid excess globs of lubricant.

2. Insert the o-ring into the o-ring groove in the external thread-side fitting

on the user side. Avoid any twisting of the o-ring.

3. Assemble the fittings and tighten to a torque of 37 to 45 N-m (or 27 to 33

lb.-ft.). Use a backup wrench on the user side fitting to avoid twisting the
drive side tubing.
