isolation transformer, thus

reducing or eliminating possible

damage to solid state

components.

D With an isolation transformer, the

Drive is free of plant power

system grounds, providing

electrical isolation for the Drive

from those grounds. Damaging

currents may be avoided in

instances where the DĆC output

is accidentally grounded or

where the DĆC motor circuits go

to ground.

Reliance offers a series of isolation

transformers suitable for use with

the FlexPak Plus Drive. Refer to

Table 2Ć2.

Motor OverloadProtection
Reliance utilizes a DĆC motor

thermostat for motor thermal

overload protection. The thermostat

is brought out through the motor

terminal box as leads P1 and P2.

These two leads must be wired to

the Controller terminals 32 and 132.

The thermostat leads can be run

with the motor armature and field

power wiring.
If an additional inverse time

overload is added, its normally

closed contact should be wired in

place of the motor thermostat and

connected to the controller at

terminals 32 and 132, or in series

with the motor thermostat when

both are used.
NOTE: The Drive will not start if the

circuit between 32 and 132 is not

made.

WARNING

THE FLEXPAK PLUS DĆC

DRIVE MUST EMPLOY A CONĆ

TACTOR IN THE MOTOR ARĆ

MATURE LOOP FOR POSIĆ

TIVE DISCONNECT OF THE

MOTOR FROM THE DRIVE IN

A STOP CONDITION. AN INĆ

ADVERTENT START CAUSED

BY NOISE OR DRIVE COMPOĆ

NENT FAILURE MAY CAUSE

UNEXPECTED MOTOR AND

MACHINE MOVEMENT IF A

CONTACTOR IS NOT USED.

FAILURE TO OBSERVE THIS

PRECAUTION COULD REĆ

SULT IN BODILY INJURY.

In all cases, the Drive must have an

armature loop contactor to

disconnect the motor from the

Controller on a Stop.
When the Armature Loop Contactor

is not supplied by Reliance, its

ON/OFF" sequence must be

integrated into the sequence control

of the regulator just as when the

Contactor is supplied by Reliance.

The "ON" sequence requires that

the contactor is closed and

approximately 8 milliseconds later

the Drive CR Relay is energized to

release the regulator. The OFF"

sequence requires that the Drive CR

Relay first clamps the regulator

(dropĆout of the CR Relay is about 8

milliseconds) and then the

contactor is allowed to dropĆout.

The M Contactor Adapter Kit M/N

14C276 is to be used to connect the

Contactor to the Regulator to

incorporate this sequencing

function.
Refer to Figure 3.4 for

Regulator/Contactor Start/Stop

timing.
The Contactor that is used must

have a 25VDC coil and a maximum

current draw of 150 milliĆamps. A

220 MFD capacitor must be

connected in parallel with the

contactor coil for dropĆout timing.

(See Figure 3.4)
Refer to Figure 3.5 and Figure 3.6

for M Contactor connection when

the Contactor is not supplied by

Reliance.
