NOTE 1
Due to variations that can occur in manufactured products, claimed performance, voltages, ratings,
all capacities, measurements, dimensions and weights quoted are approximate only. Achievable
capacities and ratings in use and operation will depend upon correct installation, use, applications,
maintenance and service.
NOTE 2
The Effective Input Current should be used for the determination of cable size & supply requirements.
NOTE 3
Motor start fuses or thermal circuit breakers are recommended for this application. Check local
requirements for your situation in this regard.
