DO NOT OPERATE RADIO TRANSMITTERS or CELL
PHONES IN THE VICINITY OF THE ADD-32 PLUS. The
ADD-32 PLUS is an electronic device. Although it is designed to
operate reliably in typical industrial environments, the ADD-32
PLUS can be affected by radio and/or cell phone transmitters. It is
possible to cause drive faults, inappropriate/unintended drive I/O
activity, and unpredictable operation that could result in damage to
the ADD-32 PLUS, damage to other equipment, or serious injury
to personnel.
Radio transmitter interference is a site specific phenomena.
Generally, electrical wires connected to terminals on the ADD-32
PLUS are the conduits for radio interference. Interference can be
minimized by good wiring design and installation practice. It is
recommended that signs be posted in and around the drive system,
warning of the possibility of interference if the drive is in
operation. DO NOT USE radio transmitters or cell phones in the
area.
Absence of a radio interference problem is no guarantee that a
problem will never occur as conditions and environments can
change.
******************************************************
The following information is for assistance in wiring the ADDvantage-32 PLUS in
accordance with specifications set forth by the National Electrical Code. Always review
local building and electrical codes before making electrical connections to this device.
Refer to the appropriate outline drawing and rating nameplate for power requirements,
fault current interrupt rating, control power output rating, and field output and armature
output ratings. Wire units using copper wire with a minimum of 75ºC insulation.
6.7.1 510 ADC AND BELOW
Wire termination kits which provide necessary wire termination lugs for connection of
units rated at 510 ADC and below in accordance with the National Electrical Code and
Underwriters Laboratory are available. See Tables 6-2 and 6-2a to identify the part
number of the appropriate kit. The instructions included with these kits detail the correct
wire gauge used at each connection point and proper torque requirements.
