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 it is required to connect and wire the 460 volt line to the enclosure. If
you did not purchase a transformer from Rapid-Air then a 3 KVA, 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. The
third connector is used to interface the cutter to the controls.
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.
An air line must be connected from the shop air to the air inlet of the servo
feed. The air should be at least 80 PSI continuous and should be dry filtered
and lightly lubricated for the best operation of the servo feed. The air inlet on
the servo feed is a 3/8-18 NPT pipe tap. The minimum air line size
requirement is 1/2” ID hose. - (2 CFM)
