  • Page 16: Electrical Installation

    ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION DC-20, DC-50,DC-60 JUNIOR The DC-20 vibrator is a low amperage unit that can be wired directly through a toggle switch. One lead connects to positive, the other to negative. One of the leads can be connected to the body on body grounded applications.

  • Page 17: Electrical Installation Procedure

    ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION PROCEDURE The electrical hook-up consists of two circuits, a master circuit and a pilot circuit (except DC-20, see previous page). The master circuit supplies the motor with current and must be able to carry the vibrators rated amperage. The pilot circuit is the controlling circuit, and carries only a small current between the switch on the dashboard and the solenoid, connecting or disconnecting the master circuit.

  • Page 20 The CB12V (figure 22) thermal overload circuit breakers are designed to be used in the main circuit of VIBCO’s DC-3500 dump body vibrator to prevent operators from running the vibrator in excess of its maximum continuous running time of 30 seconds, which can cause premature failure.

    2.) Vibrator is running slow (loss of RPM). Measure motor voltage. If less than 12 volts DC, wire size should be increased. Check the brushes and change if necessary. The life of the brushes is approximately 1,000 hours.
