It may helpful to find the example closest to the requirements of your installation and use it as a guide.
  • Page 38 ® Series 3500 Example 2: In a ventilating system, the ability to reverse the fan in the case of fire is required. The control signal used is 4 to 20 mA, corresponding to 10 to 100% motor speed, typically 6 to 60 Hz. A remote indication of motor speed is required.
  • Page 39 ® Series 3500 Example 3: A fan is to be controlled manually by means of a 0 to 10 V DC potentiometer corresponding to 10 to 60 Hz. A thermistor is installed in the motor to obtain optimum motor protection. The thermistor is to be connected to the drive to shut down the drive in case of motor overtemperature.
  • Page 40 ® Series 3500 Example 4: Although three-wire “Start/Stop” is not commonly used for unattended operation, some installations may require it for operator safety. A pump is to be controlled by means of a 0 to 10 V control signal, corresponding to 18 to 60 Hz. "Start/Stop"...
