Installation - Electrical

Preparing for installation

DANGER: Improperly grounded motors are shock

hazards. Make sure all the equipment is properly grounded.

WARNING: All wiring and electrical connections must be

performed by a qualiﬁ ed electrician familiar with industrial

motor controls. Installations must be in accordance with

local and national codes.

WARNING: Disconnect, tag, and lock out the power

source, and then release all pressure from the system

before attempting to install, service, relocate, or perform

any maintenance.

WARNING: Overheating, short circuiting, and ﬁ re damage

will result from inadequate wiring.

IMPORTANT: Damage to the motor from improper

electrical voltage or connection will void the warranty.

This product must be grounded. If the unit comes with a factory

installed cord, plug the cord into a properly sized, grounded

outlet. For units that do not have a factory installed cord, install

permanent wiring from the electrical source to the pressure switch

with a ground conductor connected to the grounding screw on the

pressure switch. A properly sized cord with a ground conductor

and plug may also be installed by the user.

Local electrical wiring codes differ from area to area. Source

wiring and protector must be rated for at least the amperage and

voltage indicated on the motor nameplate, and meet all electrical

codes for this minimum. The minimum wire size should also meet

all electrical codes, and wiring used up to 75 ft. long must be

10 AWG. Use a slow blow fuses type T or a 240-Volt double-pole

circuit breaker (1).

□ Conﬁ rm the voltage of the incoming mains (2,3) using a

voltage meter (4).

□ The voltage meter should read 230 / 240 Volts. Do not

proceed with installation if the voltage meter gives a

different reading.

□ Conﬁ rm the voltage of the incoming mains (5) and ground

wire (6) using a voltage meter (7).

□ The voltage meter should read 120 Volts. Do not proceed

with installation if the voltage meter gives a different

reading.
