Controller Connections
Connecting the Main Power
MTS Criterion Series 60 systems use an integrated power cord.
Check the power supply before connecting the testing system to it.
An unqualified power supply can cause injury to personnel or damage to
the testing system.
Confirm that the power supply meets MTS' power requirements.
Note Electrical connections must be made by qualified personnel and conform
to local codes and regulations. Local electrical codes supersede any
information found here.
Electrical connections must be made by qualified personnel and is their
responsibility for using the proper power disconnect along with the correct size
and type of wire and conduit that conforms to all their local electrical codes when
connecting the machine to the building′s main power.
Wire Sizes A main powercable (3W+PE) of 5 meters is provided on the Criterion Series 60
system. The wire type is 4×4 mm
2
(4×12 AWG).
Electrical disconnect The customer is responsible for providing a power disconnect that is easy to
operate and easy to reach. Usually this is integrated into a wall mounted electrical
junction box with over current protection. It must also meet IEC 60947-1 and
IEC 60947-3 standards.
Recommended circuit breakers are of the thermal magnetic type with
characteristics suitable for large inductive loads (D-type trip characteristic).
For the electrical box, the over current device must be Branch circuit rated.
