3. POWER SUPPLY

3.1 ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION

Place the machine near an existing power source. Make sure all power cords are protected from
traffic, material handling, moisture, chemicals, or other hazards. Make sure there is access to a
means of disconnecting the power source. The electrical circuit must meet the requirements for
240V.
NOTE : The use of an extension cord is not recommended as it may decrease the life of electrical
components on your machine.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS BP-430A BP-480A
Nominal Voltage......................... 240V
Cycle.............................................. 50 Hz
Phase.............................................
Power Supply Circuit.................. 10 Amps
Full Load Current........................ 5 Amps
(Full load current rating is also on the specification plate on the motor.)
3.2 FULL-LOAD CURRENT RATING
The full-load current rating is the amperage a machine draws when running at 100% of the out-
put power. Where machines have more than one motor, the full load current is the
amperage drawn by the largest motor or a total of all the motors and electrical devices that
might operate at one time during normal operations.
Full-Load Current Rating for these machine at 240V is 5 Amps
It should be noted that the full-load current is not the maximum amount of amps that the
machine will draw. If the machine is overloaded, it will draw additional amps beyond the
full-load rating and if the machine is overloaded for a long period of time, damage, overheating,
or fire may be caused to the motor and circuitry.
This is especially true if connected to an undersized circuit or a long extension lead. To reduce
the risk of these hazards, avoid overloading the machine during operation and make
sure it is connected to a power supply circuit that meets the requirements.
