Connecting the Vector Controlled
Motor
Most MagneTek Vector Controlled Motors (VCMs) may be configured for
either 380V/460V or 190V/230V operation. VMB motors may be configured for
190V or 230V, 380V or 460V. VMC motors may be configure for 230V or
460V. Your application will determine which configuration to use:
To control torque or speed when 150% peak torque is required at a base speed of
90-100%, with 100% torque at 0 RPM, use a low voltage winding – 190V or
380 V motor tap selection mon VMB motor.
Use a high voltage winding, 230V or 460V, when:
•
replacing an existing 460V/230V NEMA design B motor with encoder
feedback.
•
for speed control when torque limit adjustment is required.
•
in high starting torque situations.
Tune Your Smart Trac AC1
