Receiving & Inspection
Baldor Controls are thoroughly tested at the factory and carefully packaged for shipment.
When you receive your control, there are several things you should do immediately.
1.
Observe the condition of the shipping container and report any damage
immediately to the commercial carrier that delivered your control.
2.
Remove the control from the shipping container and remove all packing
materials. The container and packing materials may be retained for future
shipment.
3.
Verify that the part number of the control you received is the same as the part
number listed on your purchase order.
4.
Inspect the control for external physical damage that may have been sustained
during shipment and report any damage immediately to the commercial carrier
that delivered your control.
5.
If the control is to be stored for several weeks before use, be sure that it is
stored in a location that conforms to published storage humidity and
temperature specifications.
Location Considerations
The location of the control is important. It should be installed in an area that is protected
from direct sunlight, corrosives, harmful gases or liquids, dust, metallic particles, and
vibration. Exposure to these can reduce the operating life and degrade performance of
the control.
CAUTION: Avoid locating control immediately above or beside heat generating
equipment, or directly below water or steam pipes.
CAUTION: Avoid locating control in the vicinity of corrosive substances or
vapors, metal particles and dust.
Several other factors should be carefully evaluated when selecting a location for
installation:
1.
For effective cooling and maintenance, the control should be mounted on a
smooth, non-flammable vertical surface.
2.
At least two inches top and bottom clearance must be provided for air flow.
Installing the Servo Control Card
This procedure is to be followed only if the Servo Control Cards have not been mounted
to your chassis. If the cards are already installed, skip this procedure and continue with
Mount the Chassis.
1.
Prepare to mount the card by loosening the two phillips head machine screws
located on base of chassis (see Figure 2-1).
2.
Open the shipping carton, remove the card enclosed in plastic, anti–static
protective bag.
3.
Remove the card from the bag and slip the module’s slotted tabs under the
screw heads.
4.
Tighten the screws moderately with a long phillips head screwdriver.
5.
Repeat the mounting procedure for each card.
6.
On the prewired chassis cable harness, grasp the large connector (female “Bus
Connector”) and plug it into the row of pins (J6) at the upper right corner of the
card near the fan (see Figure 2-1). Take care to ensure proper alignment as
there is only one correct position .
7.
Grasp the small connector (4 socket female “Logic Connector”) from the same
harness and plug it into J5 (see Figure 2-1). Again make sure it is properly
aligned on the 4 pins.
