3.1 Mounting the Controller
The controller can be oriented in any position which should be as clean and dry as possible,
and if necessary, shielded with a cover to protect it from water and contaminants.
To ensure full rated output power, the controller should be fastened to a clean, flat metal
surface with four screws. A thermal joint compound can be used to improve heat conduction from
the case to the mounting surface. The case outline and mounting holes’ dimensions are shown in
Figure 1.
Caution:
•
RUNAWAYS
—
Some conditions could cause the vehicle to run out of control. Disconnect
the motor, or jack up the vehicle, and get the drive wheels off the ground before
attempting any work on the motor control circuitry.
•
HIGH CURRENT ARCS
—
Electric vehicle batteries can supply very high power, and arcs
can occur if they are short circuit. Always turn off the battery circuit before working on the
motor control circuit. Wear safety glasses, and use properly insulated tools to prevent
short circuit.
