CONTRACTOR REMOTE POWER UNIT
DANGER!
HIGH VOLTAGE!! Disconnect and/or lock out the electrical supply to the
power unit prior to any maintenance being performed.
1. The Contractor Power Unit utilizes a “Super-Torque” intermittent duty (one full lift
cycle per four minute period) 5 HP/208, 230, 460 Volts/60 hertz/3 phase motor
driving a high pressure positive displacement pump assembly with internal relief
check and dump valves.
2. Because Autoquip "Super-Torque" motors actually deliver substantially more
horsepower than their nameplate rating, they must always be wired for heavier
current-draw than standard motors of the same nameplate rating. However,
because of the "Super-Torque" motor’s starting efficiency and superior running
characteristics, circuit components do not have to be as large as for standard motors
of equal delivered horsepower.
The following chart should be referenced in connecting these motors to power sources,
remembering that heavy wire must be used all the way to the power-source.
