Wiring Errors

Wiring errors, loose or grounded

wiring are common problems

encountered inhibiting operation of

a drive. Verify installation wiring has

been correctly executed and that

the controller is free of loose

terminations and grounded

conductors.

AĆC Line and Power

Input

Verify that the applied AĆC power is

correct for the specific drive, i.e.

either 115 or 230 volts. If the drive is

being applied on 50HZ power,

ensure that the Wire AĆC Power to

the Controller" setĆup procedure of

section 4 in this instruction manual

has been properly followed. If an

isolation transformer has been

installed on the incoming AĆC

power, verify it's output voltage and

that it has been properly connected.
Verify that the AĆC line fuses have

been correctly sized per Table 2Ć3.

The AĆC and DĆC power conductors

should have been sized per the

National Electric Code.

DĆC Motor

CAUTION: a meggar may be

used for this motor ground

check, but all conductors beĆ

tween the motor and the drive

must be disconnected. The

meggar's high voltage can

cause serious damage to the

drives electronic circuits. FailĆ

ure to observe this precaution

could result in damage to, or deĆ

struction of, the equipment.

Recheck all motor connections for

firmness and correct identification.

Verify that there is no path to

ground in either the DĆC motor

armature circuit, the shunt field

circuit or the thermostat circuit.

Connect one lead of a standard

ohm meter to the motor frame and

the other lead to the two armature

leads, the two thermostat leads and

to the two field leads. If a reading of

less than 100,000 ohms is

observed, a ground condition exists

and MUST be corrected before

power is applied. Check that the

field winding is not open or shorted.
Verify the continuity of the motor

thermostat and its proper

connection to controller terminals

32 and 132. If a motor overload has

been installed, verify that it's circuit

maintains continuity in the 32 to 132

circuit.

Remote M Contactor

When the M Contactor has been

supplied by others, verify that the

connection of those circuits is

according Figure 3Ć5 or Figure 3Ć6.

The harnesses must be correctly

wired to the regulator pin

connectors.

Optional Kits

Verify that each of the added

optional kits have been installed

correctly according to the

appropriate instructions. Reference

Figure 5Ć3 for schematics of

modification kits.

Troubleshooting

Flowcharts

These troubleshooting flowcharts

are provided to assist in the analysis

of drive operational problems.

Flowcharts are not all inclusive, this

information is intended to focus

attention on common causes of

drive problems and to bring

attention to possible causes and

checking techniques. See Figures

5Ć4 through 5Ć9 for available

troubleshooting flowcharts.
