Electrical Connections It is necessary to install a magnetic core (A). You will find it in the accessories box. It must be fitted to: (MT) the power cable of the frequency inverter, as close as possible to the cable gland. (TT) the cable between frequency inverter and motor, as close as possible to the frequency inverter connector, until a click (B) is heard.
(maximum 8). They are connected point to point. The “1” terminals must be connected together in the same way as the “2” terminals Screen Format flowcon VSD - J Inverter...
Main Screen Current rotation frequency Instant consumption Nominal consumption Stop frequency Current Time Current Pressure Working Pressure Access to the menu Operation Mode The operation mode of the inverter will continuously seek to minimise the electricity demand, at the same time guaranteeing minimum wear to the pumps.
Note: the nominal consumption is indicated on the specifications plate of the motor. You must choose the correct value, for example if you connect an inverter MT2200 select the value 230V and for the TT4000 select the value 400V. flowcon VSD - J Inverter...
