Physical Installation; Receiving; Before Installation - PowerTec 2000C Instruction Manual

3.1 RECEIVING

POWERTEC products are packed carefully for
shipment, but occasionally damage may occur between the
factory and the site at which the equipment will be in-
stalled. When the equipment is first received, a physical
inspection should be made of the shipment to determine if
there is any visible physical damage which may have
occurred in shipping. If inspection is put off until later,
damage discovered may delay installation.
If damage is found, notify the carrier of the equip-
ment immediately. Equipment is shipped F.O.B. the fac-
tory. Shipping claims must be filed by the receiver directly
to the carrier. POWERTEC will assist claims with informa-
tion necessary to assess and repair damage.
In unpacking, be sure to remove all packing materi-
als, since materials left in the control or motor may interfere
with air flow necessary to cool the equipment.
DO NOT THROW AWAY THE MANUALS, CON-
NECTION DIAGRAMS, OR OTHER INFORMATION
SENT IN THE SHIPPING CONTAINER.

ment to ensure that the installation complies with all other
national, state, and local codes which apply to this equip-
ment and to the installation. This applies to grounding of
the motor, motor control chassis and enclosures as well.
The use of external circuitry or devices and periph-
eral equipment not supplied by POWERTEC as a part of
the equipment, or equipment which is supplied separately
by POWERTEC for wiring by the customer at the user's
request, is done entirely at the user's risk.
DO NOT DISCONNECT, UNPLUG, OR REMOVE
ANY CONNECTIONS ON THE MOTOR OR ON THE
MOTOR CONTROL WHILE POWER IS APPLIED.
SEVERE DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY
MAY RESULT FROM THESE ACTIONS.
THE USE OF TEST EQUIPMENT ON THE MO-
TOR AND CONTROL IS VERY HAZARDOUS. THIS
EQUIPMENT SHOULD BE SERVICED ONLY BY PER-
SONNEL EXPERIENCED IN THE SERVICING AND
MAINTENANCE OF HIGH POWER ELECTRONIC
EQUIPMENT! USE THE PROPER TEST EQUIPMENT
AND PROCEDURES!
Do not use a megger on the electronic equipment
without consulting the factory. If a megger is used on the
motor or the wiring to the motor, disconnect the wiring
from the control. DO NOT USE A MEGGER ON THE
MOTOR ENCODER CABLE AT ANY TIME!
