FP-25-LV-VSR
Breaker-To-Motor Starter Conversion
1. The starter must be in the open position and the racking
crank turned fully counter-clockwise to reach a complete
stop.
2. Open the cell door and pull out the rails to the fully
extended and latched position.
3. Use a lifting device, set the VSR on the rails such that the
positioning pins reside in the slots of each track.
4. Remove the lifting device and push the LV-VSR into the
cell until the positioning pins reach the end of the slots. An
additional positive push will automatically release the two
latches (Figure 5.15). This gives the LV-VSR some clearance,
when the racking cams stopped against their guides on
the cradle. Close the cell door, the LV-VSR is now in the
DISCONNECT position.
8. To rack the LV-VSR to the CONNECT position; press the trip
push button, lift up the crank shutter, and insert the crank,
turn the crank clockwise until the position indicator on the
starter shows “CONNECT” position. (Figure 5.18)
9. Remove the racking crank; the shutter will automatically
be returned. The LV-VSR is now ready to be electrically
operated if control power is available.

5. When the starter is in the Disconnect position, an inspection
device should be used to ensure that the starter secondary
contacts are not in contact with the cell secondaries. If
contact is made, the starter will need to be retracted on the
rails and the bracket holding the secondary disconnects will
need to be adjusted up or down. (Figure 5.16
6. To enter the TEST position; press the trip push button, lift
up the crank shutter, and insert the crank. Turn the crank
clockwise until the position indicator on the starter shows
“TEST” position. (Figure 5.17).
7. Remove the racking crank; the shutter will automatically be
returned. In test position LV-VSR may be electrically closed
and opened if there is control power available.
