Electrical – Single-Phase Motors
Clear Vue Cyclones highly recommends the use of a professional,
licensed electrician to complete the wiring and any electrical work
associated with this installation. Significant damage to your system and/or
bodily harm can result.
The Leeson 5HP motor is designed to rotate either clockwise or counter-clockwise.
Motors are prewired direct from Leeson and may be wired for either rotation. You will
need to check the wiring to ensure it is correct.
If you purchased our prewired Electrical Box, which gives you a remote start for your
system, please refer to the assembly sheet included with this item.
1. Follow the directions on the Leeson motor for wiring the motor for a clockwise rotation:
a. Connect
L1
to
P1
.
b. Connect
L2
to both
T4
&
T8
.
c. Connect
P3
&
T1
&
T5
– wire together and cap off with a wire lug.
d. Connect the ground wire (bare wire) to the green screw inside the motor
connection box.
Leeson recommends the use of wire lugs in lieu of wire nuts to secure all connections.
Leeson defines motor rotation with the motor shaft facing away. For our installation
puposes, rotation is defined from the opposite end of the motor. In order to obtain a
counter-clockwise rotation when veiwed from below, please follow the clockwise
instructions on Leeson’s motor plate, which match step 1 above.
Once the motor is wired, the motor shaft and impeller blade should be turning counter-
clockwise when viewed from below (i.e.: looking up at the impeller from the floor).
Note that our impellers are backward inclined, allowing our system to move high volumes of
air at a variety of static pressures. Each blade on the impeller has a slight “C” shape. When
rotating correctly, the convex side of the blade will be hitting the air first. This rotation will
match the yellow rotation sticker on your blower housing.
