ELECTRICAL CABLES AND AIR LINE
230 VAC INPUT
The required input voltage to the control is 230 Vac, 3 Ph, 60 Hz. The amperage
needed is 10 amps for 953 control. If unsure of the amperage needed, the name plate
on the side of the Pacific Scientific drive will give the number of the control or check the
disconnect fuses for the correct fuse size.
460 VAC INPUT
If your plant has only 460 Vac power then a step down transformer is needed in order
to run the servo feed. If you purchased the transformer from Rapid-Air then all that is
needed is to connect and wire the 460 volt line to the transformer. If you did not
purchase a transformer from Rapid-Air then a transformer, 3 KVA for the control is
needed. 460/230 VAC 3PH, 60HZ step down transformer is needed before proceeding
with the electrical portion of the installation.
The electrical control enclosure is shipped completely ready to be connected to the
mechanical feed. Connected to the bottom of the enclosure are (2) cables with keyed
screw type connectors for connection to the motor.
Position the electrical enclosure at a convenient location near the mechanical feed and
attach the cables. The motor cables are easily identifiable by the amount of pins in the
plugs. The solenoid cables if any can now be attached and checked for proper
location when the feed is up and running.
