  • Page 12: Important Application Information

    IMPORTANT APPLICATION INFORMATION MOTOR WITH EXTERNAL FAN COOLING – Most totally enclosed fan-cooled (TEFC) and open ven- tilated 3-phase AC induction motors will overheat if used beyond a limited speed range at full torque. Therefore, it is necessary to reduce motor load as speed is decreased. Note: Some fan-cooled motors can be used over a wider speed range.
  • Page 13: Wiring Instructions

    To maintain the watertight integrity of the drive, be sure to use suitable watertight connectors and wiring which are appropriate for the application. Model KBAC-24D contains two mounting holes for standard 1/2” liquidtight fittings (not supplied) (one watertight plug is provided, if only one knockout is used).
