Electrical Connection
•
Before connecting the mixer to an electrical supply, please read the specifications on the rating
plate to ensure that they comply with those of the electrical supply. The mixer should be fitted to
an isolated electrical supply, capable of supporting an electrical load of 20amps.
•
Electrical connection should be made by a qualified service technician who will observe all
applicable safety codes. The machine works off 220/240V 50Hz 1 phase supply and comes fitted
with a colour-coded three-core cable as follows:
1)
Brown: Live
2)
Blue: Neutral
3)
Green/Yellow: Earth
As the colour of the wires may not correspond to the coloured markings identifying the terminals in
your plug, you should proceed as follows:
1)
The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the
letter L or coloured red.
2)
The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the
letter N or coloured black.
3)
The wire which is coloured green/yellow must be connected to the terminal which is marked
with the letter E or coloured green.
•
An electrical supply should be available within the reach of the included power cord.
DO NOT
use
extension cords to connect the machine’s power cord to the electrical supply. The low AMP supply
could damage the mixer or cause a fire.
•
The technician should install an over-current protection device (e.g. fuse or NFB) or Residual
Current Device (GFCI) to prevent a current fault risk.
•
Ensure that an isolating switch is fitted within 2m of the machine.
•
All wiring connections must be checked and tight.
Hard Wiring
•
The mixer can be hardwired into a switched socket which isolates all poles and has a minimum
contact clearance of 3mm. It should be located close to the mixer for use in an emergency and to
facilitate servicing.
•
The machine must be incorporated into a potential equalization system.
•
The leakage current for this appliance is no greater than 1 mA/KW.
•
If the electrical supply cable to the machine becomes damaged, it must be replaced by the same
specification or higher and suitable for the mixer’s motor load.
•
The ground wire is fixed to the machine and this connection must be kept intact.
•
CAUTION: The mixer MUST be grounded.
3 Phase Connection
If you have a 3-phase mixer, when it is in position and connected,
please make sure that the shaft goes
clockwise
. (Same direction as the arrow sticker that located on the front of the mixer). If the shaft goes
counter-clockwise, please exchange the position of 2 phase wires: replace L3 with L2.
The mixer should be hardwired into a switched socket (see above).
