Connections
Do not connect this equipment with power applied.
Failure to
heed this warning may result in fire, explosion, or serious injury.
Minarik Drives strongly recommends the installation of a master
power switch in the voltage input line, as shown in Figures 11
and 12 on pages 24 and 25.
The switch contacts should be rated
at a minimum of 200% of motor nameplate current and 250 volts.
!
WARNING!
Power Input
For chassis models, connect the AC line power leads to terminals L1
and L2 (115) if using a 115 VAC line or to terminals L1 and L2 (230) if
using a 230 VAC line. Minarik Drives recommends the use of a single-
throw, double-pole master power switch. The switch should be rated at
a minimum of 250 volts and 200% of motor current. Refer to Figures 11
and 12 on page 24 and 25.
For NEMA 4X models, the connect the AC line power leads to terminals
1 and 2 if using a 115 VAC line or to terminals 1 and 3 if using a 230 VAC
line. Refer to Figure 13 on page 26.
Motor
Drives supply motor armature voltage from A1 and A2 terminals. It is
assumed throughout this manual that, when A1 is positive with respect
to A2, the motor will rotate clockwise (CW) while looking at the output
shaft protruding from the front of the motor. If the motor does not
spin in the desired direction, remove power and reverse the A1 and A2
connections.
Connect a DC motor to terminals A1 and A2 as shown in Figures 11, 12
and 13 on pages 24, 25 and 26. Ensure that the motor voltage rating is
consistent with the drive’s output voltage.
