Auxiliary M-Contactor Kit for FlexPak Plus and MinPak Plus DC Drives

Installing the Auxiliary M-Contactor

Refer to figure 1 and to your drive instruction manual for help locating and identifying drive components. To
install the Auxiliary M-contactor in your FlexPak Plus or MinPak Plus DC drive:

Step 1. Disconnect, lock out, and tag input power to the drive.

Step 2. Remove the drive cover and verify that no voltage is present at the drive’s AC input terminals,

L1 and L2.

Step 3. For 1/4 to 1-1/2 HP MinPak Plus drives: Install the Auxiliary Mounting Bracket, as described in

instruction manual D2-3379.

Step 4. Position the Auxiliary M-contactor in the center of the Auxiliary Mounting Bracket with the wire

harness on the left. When the Auxiliary M-contactor is properly positioned, snap it into place in the
bracket.

Step 5. Connect the Auxiliary M-contactor’s three-wire harness connector to the three bayonet pins labeled

“AUX. M.” near the upper left corner of the drive’s Regulator board. The yellow wire (39) is connected
to the pin marked “YEL.”

Step 6. Route the wires from the external devices into the drive chassis and connect them to the Auxiliary

M-contactor’s terminal strip. Refer to figure 1 for terminal identification. To prevent shorts at exposed
points, do not strip more than 6 mm (1/4 inch) of insulation from the wires.

Step 7. Verify the wiring of the Auxiliary M-contactor and ensure that all connections are securely fastened.

Step 8. Reattach the cover to the drive.

Step 9. Apply power and test the operation of the drive.

This completes the installation of the Auxiliary M-contactor.
