Installation

Mounting

NEMA 1 cased drives come with two 0.88 inch (22 mm) conduit holes at the bottom of the case. The
drives may be vertically wall mounted or horizontally bench mounted using the three keyholes on the
back of the case.
1. For access to the keyholes and the terminal strip, remove the two screws from the front of the case
1. by turning them counterclockwise. Grasp the front cover and pull it straight out.
2. Install the mounting screws in the three keyholes.
3. Set the POWER switch to the OFF position before applying the AC line voltage.
4. Install conduit hardware through the conduit holes at the bottom of the case. Connect external
3. wiring to the terminal block.
5. Reinstall the front cover. Avoid pinching any wires between the front cover and the case.
6. Reinstall the two screws on the front cover. Turn the screws clockwise to tighten.

Heat Sinking

The LGC410-10 requires an additional heat sink when the continuous armature current is above 5
amps. Use ACE heat sink kit part number HSK-0002. Use a thermally conductive heat sink compound
(such as Dow Corning 340® Heat Sink Compound) between the back of the case and the heat sink
surface for optimal heat transfer.

Wiring

Use 14 - 16 AWG wire for AC line and motor wiring.

Shielding Guidelines

As a general rule, it is recommended to shield all conductors. If it is not practical to shield power
conductors, it is recommended to shield all logic-level leads. If shielding of logic-level leads is not
practical, the user should twist all logic leads with themselves to minimize induced noise. It may be
necessary to earth ground the shielded cable. If noise is produced by devices other than the drive,
ground the shield at the drive end. If noise is generated by the drive, ground the shield at the end
away from the drive. Do not ground both ends of the shield.

Fusing

The drives provide fusing for the AC line (1, 3). Fuses are fast acting fuses. LGC410-1.5 models contain
fuses rated for 3A at 250 VAC. LGC410-10 models contain fuses rated for 15A at 250 VAC.

Motor
Connect the DC armature leads to terminals 4 and 5. If the motor does not spin in the desired direction, Connect the DC armature leads to terminals A1 and A2. If the motor spins in the reverse of desired rotation,
power down the drive and reverse these connections.
Field
At 115 VAC, connect the field leads to terminals F1 and L1 for a 50 VDC field or to F1 and F2 for a 100 VDC field. At 115 VAC, connect the field leads to terminals 7 and 1 for a 50 VDC field or to 7 and 6 for a 100 VDC field.
At 230 VAC, connect the field leads to terminals 7 and 1 for a 100 VDC field or to 7 and 6 for a 200 VDC field. At 230 VAC, connect the field leads to terminals F1 and L1 for a 100 VDC field or to F1 and F2 for a 200 VDC.
Do not make any connections to terminals 6 and 7 if using a permanent magnet motor. Do not make any connections to F1 and F2 if using a permanent magnet motor.
