Meltric CS1000 Series User Manual
Cs1000, Operating instructions, Warning
GENERAL
CS1000 single pole plugs and connectors are
designed with safety and durability in mind. A finger
guard on the receptacle provides IP2X protection
from live parts. A locking pin prevents unwanted
disconnection. Each of the phases as well as the
neutral and ground are color coded and keyed to
prevent improper connection. Please follow the
instructions below to ensure the proper installation
and use of the product.
There are inherent dangers
associated with electrical
products. Failure to follow safety precautions can
result in serious injury or death. These instructions
must be followed to ensure the safe and proper
installation, operation and maintenance of the Meltric
devices. Before installation, disconnect all sources
of power to the circuit to eliminate the risk of
electrical shock.
RATINGS
The CS1000 series is for use in Non-Load Break
applications up to 400A at 600VAC (in North
America) or 1000VAC (in Europe – CE rated).
The CS1000 devices are NOT designed or
listed for current interruption.
INSTALLATION
These products should be installed by qualified
personnel in accordance with all applicable
local and national electrical codes.
Before starting, verify that the power is off, that the
product ratings are appropriate for the application,
and that the conductors meet code requirements.
NOTICE: For correct operation, the power cable
must not exert significant force on the product.
Wiring of the main conductor
Strip the conductor by approximately 1-1/8” depending on
the lug used. Crimp the threaded lug or the ferrule with
the appropriate die. Hexagonal crimping is recommended.
Tighten the threaded lug with a 21 mm wrench or
tighten the ferrule with a screw and washer with a
19 mm socket.
The tightening torque must not be transmitted
to the insulated casing. To avoid transmitting
torque to the device when securing the lugs, hold the
terminal in place with a 24 mm wrench.
While tightening the ferrule of the screw, maintain the
rear of the CS contact with a 21 mm wrench. Apply a
torque of 30 ft-lb (40 N-m).
Assembly of the handle
Screw handle onto the product and tighten the cable
gland with an appropriate tool. Block the rotation of
the handle with the supplied screw. Assemble as
shown below.
Assembly with adapter plate
Assemble the adaptor plate on the product and
tighten the M40 nut with an appropriate tool.
Align tabs and assemble as shown below.
Hole pattern for adapter plate
NOTICE: In order to maintain IP66/67 protection in
custom installations, watertight seals must be used
under the heads of the four mounting fasteners and
they must be retained by a lock washer and nut on
the inside of the box or panel. Alternatively, four
blind holes can be drilled and threaded to
accommodate #8-32 x 5/8” mounting screws. The
hole depth must be sufficient to achieve adequate
gasket compression.
Assembly on an inclined sleeve
(with adapter plate)
Assemble the adapter plate on the inclined sleeve.
Do not forget the gasket between the adaptor plate
and the inclined sleeve, and between the inclined
sleeve and the panel. Assemble as shown below.
When mounting on a wall or panel, position the inlet or
receptacle so that the locking pin or latch is at the top.
Assembly on a panel board
Direct assembly
Assemble the product on the panel board and tighten
the M40 nut supplied, with an appropriate tool. The
watertightness is achieved by the color-coded ring.
Color coded ring and color-coded ring for the lid
In order to achieve watertightness, do not forget the
color-coded ring at the rear of the inlet or receptacle
and the panel.
The
color-coded rings of receptacles and connectors
include a cap. The color-coded rings of plugs and
inlets do not include a cap.
Rated current and voltage markings
It is essential to indicate the current and voltage of
the main circuit on the supplied stickers. Apply the
stickers on or adjacent to the product so they can
easily be seen.
