4. Electrical Installation

CAUTION: Electrical connection should only be performed by a qualified
electrician and subject to local electrical codes.

The Model 2188 is designed to operate using 208-230 VAC single-phase
50 or 60Hz power.

The branch circuit supplying power to the motor base should be protected
from excess current according to local electrical codes. ETS-Lindgren has
provided integral circuit protection in the motor base assembly.

Check that the conductor size is adequate for the motor load and the
distance from the mains source. Improperly sized conductors will lead to
a high voltage drop in the power conductors and cause reduced starting
torque and premature motor failure.

The motor base assembly is provided with an IEC-320 power inlet for
connecting to the mains. Prior to servicing the turntable or the turntable
motor base, remove the power connection for safety.

Connect the fiber-optic control cable and install the power connection per
local electrical code. Please refer to the Model 2090 series positioning
controller manual for instructions on connecting the fiber optic cable. After
the fiber optic cable is installed secure it with a wire tie to one of the
leveling screws.

In order to feed the fiber optic connectors through the waveguide in a
chamber it may be necessary to remove part of the protective sheath.
The removal of a portion of the sheath will allow the connectors to fit
through the hole without bending or kinking the fiber optic cable
excessively. Find the spot in which you will need to remove the sheath
and mark. A very sharp knife is needed to make the splice. Being very
careful, cut around the outside of the sheath at each end of the area
needing to be cut, cut very lightly so as to not cut into the fiber cables.
You should then be able to bend the sheath back and forth until you can
see the fiber cables.

Next, you will need to make a cut down the length of sheath area, being
careful not to cut into fiber cable. You will see two pieces of white string
inside the sheath. Find the string and use it to split the sheath open. Now
insert the cable into the waveguide.
