    SAFETY NOTICE Continued WARNING: If possible, do not adjust trim pots with the main power applied. Electrical shock can cause serious or fatal injury. If adjustments are made with the main power applied, an insulated adjustment tool must be used to prevent shock hazard and safety glasses must be worn. WARNING: Do not use this drive in an explosive environment.

    Chapter 2 Installation WARNING: Do not use this drive in an explosive environment. An explosion can cause serious or fatal injury. This drive is not explosion proof. MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS It is recommended that the control be mounted on a flat surface with adequate ventilation. Leave enough room to allow for AC line, motor connection, and other wiring that is required.
  • Page 9: Ac Line Connection

    The AC Line Fuse protects the control against catastrophic failure. If the AC Line Fuse blows, the control is miswired, the motor is shorted or grounded, or the control is defective. Fuse holders and fuses not supplied with BC142-5. Note: Fuse each AC line conductor that is not at ground potential. Figure 2-2 Control Layout &...

    Figure 2-4 Voltage Following Connection Terminal "P2" Terminal "P1" 0 - 9 Volts DC (Isolated) Notes: 1. If an isolated signal input is not available, or if using a 4 - 20 mA DC signal input, install the optional plug-on Catalog No. BC152 Signal Isolator. This will also allow direct connections to process controllers and microprocessors.

    Notes: 1. The deceleration time can only be made longer than the normal coasting time of the load. 2. If the BC152, Signal Isolator option board is installed onto the BC141, or BC142 control, the ENABLE circuit will not funciton as described. If an ENABLE feature is required for the application, connect a N.O.

    Armature Switching and Dynamic Braking If the armature is to be disconnected and reconnected with the AC power applied, connect a relay (or contactor) and a brake resistor (RB) in the armature circuit. The Inhibit Circuit must be simultaneously activated when braking. Wire a double pole double throw (DPDT) mechanically ganged switch to the Inhibit Terminals and the relay (or contactor) coil.

  • Page 17 Note: Readjusting the MIN Trimpot will affect the maximum speed setting. Therefore, it is necessary to readjust the MAX Trimpot if readjusting the MIN Trimpot. It may be necessary to repeat these adjustments until both the minimum and maximum speeds are set to the desired levels. Maximum Speed Trimpot (MAX) The MAX Trimpot sets the maximum speed of the motor when the Main Speed Potentiometer is set fully clockwise.
  • Page 18: Operation

    3. Run the motor with the maximum load and adjust the IR Trimpot so that the motor speed under load equals the unloaded speed recorded in step 2. 4. Remove the load and recheck the RPMs. 5. If the unloaded RPM has changed, repeat steps 2 - 4 for more exact regulation. The control is now compensated to provide minimal speed change due to changing loads.
