Warner Electric Recommended Electrical Installation Procedure for Warner Electric Clutches and Brakes - Manual

Recommended Electrical Installation Procedure
for Warner Electric Clutches and Brakes
Installation Instructions
P-1390
819-0188
Warner Electric clutches and brakes conform to UL
(Underwriters Laboratories) and CSA (Canadian Standards
Association) requirements. All packaged products come with
conduit boxes or are enclosed in housings with
provision for electrical conduit connection. UL Listed/CSA
Certified fittings must be used in making connections. All SF
clutch fields and brake magnets, in size 400 and larger,
accept UL and CSA conforming conduit boxes available from
Warner Electric. UL Listed/CSA Certified fittings must be
used in making connections.
The National Electrical Code (NEC) requires conductors sub-
ject to physical damage be adequately protected. When
electrical conduit is used, a minimum of 12" of 1/2" flexible
conduit is to be used between each brake and/or clutch and
its box. This construction will prevent improper bearing load-
ing in bearing mounted units and ease field and magnet
assembly and disassembly. Refer to the information below for
proper installation practices and
wire sizes.
Notwithstanding the above recommendations, all
electrical installations should conform to NEC and/or
other governing electrical codes.

Cycle Rates
The performance curves on this page and the following
page meet current UL Listing and Recognition coil
temperature limitations, which are class A or 105° C.
Consult Warner Electric's Catalog, P-1234 or P-1264,
for performance characteristics for applications not
subject to UL listings.
AT Models
Select the chart for the appropriate size AT clutch or brake. The
intersection of the reflected inertia (lb. ft.) and speed difference
(RPM) lines will indicate the maximum cycle rate for that size
unit.
