These fields should be populated with the motor nameplate
information. This is for reference only.
Recycle Delay
Use the Quantum
™
LX control panel to enter a value between
0 and 80 minutes. This represents the amount of time the
Vyper
™
will remain in standby mode before initiating a shut-
down command.

There are several safety scenarios regarding the Vyper
™
and
the motor combination. To determine which strategy is appli-
cable, please follow the calculations in the following table.
Line Parameter Value
1 Applied Motor FLA
2 Applied Service Factor 1.15
3 Multiply (Line 1 x Line 2)
4 HP rating of Vyper Drive
5 Vyper Amp Limit
If Line 4 is 305/254 HP, value is 380 A
If Line 4 is 437/362 HP, value is 565 A
6 Multiply Line 5 x 1.05
• IfvalueofLine3islessthanvalueofLine6,useTableA.
• IfvalueofLine3isgreaterthanvalueofLine6,useTableB.
