INSTALLATION
We would recommend that the installation of this equipment is carried out by
a qualified electrician, who has a full understanding of industrial switching
applications.
It is the users responsibility to provide adequate protection for the intended
motor and to ensure that the supply and cabling is of sufficient capacity to
enable the motor to start without causing undue supply disturbances due to a
voltage drop.
Before installing this equipment, careful consideration must be given to the
location in which it is to be used, also what machinery it is intended to run,
such as drills, lathes, milling machines, circular saws etc.
Once the location has been established, the installation may be carried out as
follows.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Check details on converter rating plate are compatible with the electric
supply and the machine to be driven. (machine details should be found on
the motor data plate).
NOTE: The converter will only supply a 3 phase, 3 line load as standard, if a
neutral is required. Contact your nearest dealer or Clarke Service for
advice.
IMPORTANT: Under no circumstances must the PC40 & PC60 convertors be
connected to the mains using a standard 13amp plug. All models must be
connected via a separate isolator, and must be protected by a fuse or
circuit breaker, (see fuse rating details below).
NOTES:
• Cable sizes above are the minimum sizes for up to 20 metres. For cables
over this length refer to the current IEE regulations.
• Model PC40 is provided with 2M (minimum) of 3-core cable for
connection to the power supply supply.
WARNING: THESE CONVERTERS ARE NOT SUITABLE FOR USE WITH CAR
HOISTS, COMPRESSORS & VACUUM PUMPS DUE TO THEIR HIGH START UP
