Motor won’t ramp up

The Nidec RESCUE EZ16 motor may not ramp up because:

1. It is normal for the motor to have a 10–12 second delay before beginning operation and may take up to 30 seconds to reach full speed.
2. The blower wheel may not be attached. If not attached, the motor will run continuously to a maximum speed and then stop.
3. Incorrect voltage may be applied. Only the nameplate voltage should be used.
4. Rotation sensing may need to reoccur if the motor experienced a power loss longer than 60 seconds.
5. The motor or control unit may have been replaced with incompatible parts, affecting performance.

Check these conditions to troubleshoot the issue.
