PC1500BF Connection Diagram
WARNING: The PC1500BF Phase Control is NOT
Suitable for use on Electrical Generators!!!
The PC1500BF is a Full-Wave rectified phase control, which allows a maximum of
210VDC at 100 ADC continuous with an input voltage of 240VAC.
This product is typically used on slip-ring synchronous motors or on inductive loads with
full load control field voltages of 125VDC or less and full load exciter field amperages
between 30 and 90ADC.
Note that the maximum input voltage to the PC1500BF Phase control is 240VAC!
DO NOT input 277VAC into the PC1500BF!
Severe damage to the unit will result!
For use on 480V or higher systems, connect the PC1500BF to an appropriate step-
down transformer to supply 240VAC to the PC1500BF.
Diagram Assumes a 208-240V Input Voltage
For 480V or higher systems, use a 31KVA
(or
larger)
Transformer
with a
240V Secondary
!
NOTE:
It is not necessary
to jumper terminals
E and F if not using
the Remote Voltage
Adjustment!
NEVER install a switch or
breaker on the DC or Exciter
side of the phase control!
Only install a switch or
disconnect on the AC Side of
the phase control!
