SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
SELECT SUITABLE LOCATION
NOTE: The Invertec V300-I is capable of operating in
harsh environments. However, it is important to use
the machine in appropriate locations to assure reliable
operation and long life. Failure to follow these precau-
tions can result in excessive operating temperatures
causing nuisance shutdown of the machine.
1. Verify the machine will be located in an area where
• free circulation of air into the sides and out the
front and bottom of the machine will not be
restricted.
• dust and dirt is kept to a minimum.
• it will remain dry, sheltered from rain and snow.
• it will not be placed on wet ground or in puddles.
STACKING
V300-I’s cannot be stacked.
ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.
• Only qualified personnel should
perform this installation.
• Turn the input power OFF at the
disconnect switch or fuse box
before working on this
equipment.
• Do not touch electrically hot
parts.
• Always connect the V300-I
grounding terminal (located on the
bottom of the input connection box)
to a good electrical earth ground.
TILTING
Place machine directly on a secure, level surface or
on a recommended undercarriage. The machine may
topple over if this procedure is not followed.
HIGH FREQUENCY PRECAUTIONS
If possible, locate the V300-I away from radio con-
trolled machinery. The normal operation of the V300-I
may adversely affect the operation of RF controlled
equipment, which may result in bodily injury or dam-
age to the equipment.
INPUT CONNECTIONS
Be sure the voltage, phase, and frequency of the input
power is as specified on the rating plate. See Figure
A.1 for the location of the rating plate.
FIGURE A.1 — RATING PLATE LOCATION
Only a qualified electrician should connect the input
leads to the V300-I. Connections should be made in
accordance with all local and national electrical codes
and the connection diagram located on the inside of
the reconnect/input access door of the machine.
Failure to do so may result in bodily injury or death.
