The DC controllers are equipped with adjustable amperage limiting that
is set by the rotational potentiometer adjacent to the J7 connector. The
amperage draw on the motor is limited by the aperage setting as shown
in the inset. TThe setting should be adjusted to a reasonalb elevel above
the running current expected for the actuator and its load. When the motor
currentexceedsthetripsetting,themotoristurnedoandaCurrentTrip
fault condition is indicated.
The amperage limiter setting essentially performs the same function as
torque switches. The limiter is for the actuator motor, so other components
in the system (gears, couplings, packing, seats, etc.) also place a load on
themotor.Theeectofthesecomponentswillvarywithtemperatureand
age. Therefore the amperage draw on the motor may vary accordingly.
The J7 Connector is used in conjuction with local control stations (LCS) or
motor control stations (MCC) for local control of the actuator. Both AC and
DC controllers contain the J7 connector
