Rockwell Automation Flex/WebPak 3000 Digital DC Drive Blower Motor Starter Kit - Manual (Page 3)

Blower Motor Starter Kits for FlexPak 3000 and WebPak 3000 Digital DC Drives 3
Step 1. Turn off, lockout, and tag power to the drive.
Step 2. Remove the cover from the drive or drive’s line fuse panel, if necessary.
Step 3. Remove the jumper plug from drive connector P8. Connector P8 is accessed through the opening in
the fuse/terminal panel. For 460 VAC drives rated 400 HP to 600 HP: If you are using two blower
motor starter kits, remove the jumper plugs from connectors P8A and P8B. If you are using only one
blower motor starter kit, remove the jumper plug from connector P8A only.
Step 4. Loosen the two screws securing the left side of the line fuse/terminal panel to the drive. See figure 2,
3, 4, or 6.
Step 5. Slide the keyhole slots on the left side of the blower motor starter’s mounting bracket over the
loosened screws.
Step 6. Slide the mounting bracket down until the narrow ends of the keyhole slots are under the screw
heads.
Step 7. Tighten the screws (torque to 55 in-lb/6.21 Nm) to secure the starter to the drive. See figure 2, 3, 4, or
6.
Wiring the Blower Motor Starter
Step 1. Plug connector P8 into the drive’s mating plug (P8). See figure 2, 3, 4, or 6. For drives with two
starters, plug connectors P8A and P8B into their respective mating plugs.
Step 2. For 230 VAC drives rated through 30 HP and 460 VAC drives rated through 60 HP:
Connect the spade receptacles attached to the blower motor starter’s 181, 182, and 183 fuses to the
spade tabs on A-C input fuses 181, 182, and 183, respectively. See figure 2.
Step 3. For 230 VAC drives rated 40 HP through 150 HP and 460 VAC drives rated 75 HP through 300
HP:
a. Disconnect wires 181, 182, and 183 from the blower motor starter’s fuse block and discard them.
These wires are connected to the back of the fuse block (the end closest to the drive chassis).
b. Attach the 181, 182, and 183 connectors on the long wire harness to the 13FU, 14FU, and 15FU
spade terminals at the rear of the blower motor starter’s fuse block.
c. Route the wire harness to the 181, 182, and 183 spade connectors on the drive’s line fuse panel.
These connectors are on the underside of the top end of the line fuse connectors.
d. Secure the wire harness to the drive chassis with the wire ties as illustrated in figure 3 or 4.
Step 4. For 460 VAC drives rated 400 HP through 600 HP, perform steps 4a - 4d for both starter kits:
a. Disconnect wires 181, 182, and 183 from the blower motor starter’s fuse block and discard them.
These wires are connected to the back of the fuse block (the end closest to the drive chassis).
b. Attach the 181, 182, and 183 connectors on the long wire harness to the 13FU, 14FU, and 15FU
spade terminals at the rear of the blower motor starter’s fuse block.
c. Route the wire harness to the 181, 182, and 183 spade connectors on the drive’s line fuse panel.
These connectors are directly above the rear set of line fuses.
d. Secure the wire harness to the drive chassis with the wire ties as illustrated in figure 6.
