Electrical Connections
The electrical power connector on the Shield 1500 is a standard 3-pin
(IEC320-C14) male connector. A 3-conductor power cable with a mating female
connector (IEC320-C13) is supplied with the system. The Shield 1500 is compatible
with supplied electrical AC power at voltages within the range of 100-240VAC RMS
and frequencies within the range of 50-60 Hz.
The fuse shipped in the fuse holder of the Shield 1500 is suitable for operation with
supplied electrical AC power at voltages in the customer’s anticipated range.
Protective grounding of the Shield 1500 is required for safe operation. Ensure
that the wall outlet receptacle is properly wired and earth grounded. DO NOT use a
three-to-two wire plug adapter. DO NOT use a two-wire extension cord or a two-wire
multiple-outlet power strip. Do not modify the supplied power cable in any manner that
defeats this requirement for protective grounding of the Shield 1500.
Pre-Startup Testing
Disconnect power from Shield 1500 and supply water to the input of the
system at a pressure not to exceed 65 psi (4.48 bar, 448 kPa). Flush a minimum of
20 L of clean water through the system. Verify that no water leaks are observed at
the input or output connectors, and that no water leaks from the body of the system.
Chapter 3: System Start-Up
Before connecting power to the system, ensure that the power switch is in
the OFF state (“O” side of rocker switch depressed). Connect a properly grounded
3-conductor cable from a properly grounded power outlet to the system power input.
Switch the system to the ON state by depressing the green indicator side of the
power rocker switch.
