Figure 2-3 Straps - Correct Position Make sure that no VGSC cables are caught between the VGSC and the webbed straps. Refer to Figure 2-4.
Page 24 v 3.0 — March 2023 Altanium Valve Gate Sequencer Controller (VGSC) With the lift device, use only the force necessary to apply tension to the webbed straps. Do not lift the VGSC at this time. Put the ratchet strap around the top of the VGSC and over the webbed straps. Do not tighten the ratchet strap at this time.
Page 25: Assemble The Vgsc
v 3.0 — March 2023 Altanium Valve Gate Sequencer Controller (VGSC) Assemble the VGSC The display module comes in a different protective box. You must attach the display module to the VGSC stack. With the front of the VGSC in front of you, remove the four M6 x 1mm button head cap screws from the top of the VGSC stack.
Page 26: Connect The Input Power
240 VAC ±20%, 3-phase + ground (DELTA), 50/60 Hz. Because the standalone and integrated VGSC models are different, see the controller nameplate or electrical schematics for the maximum current ratings. Contact Husky customer support if it is necessary to change the power supply configuration. Overcurrent Protective Device The VGSC has a main power switch.
Page 27: Bonding
v 3.0 — March 2023 Altanium Valve Gate Sequencer Controller (VGSC) Bonding The system integrator must make sure that the VGSC is correctly bonded (electrically). The system integrator must know the distribution system type (TN/TT/IT). As an example, the correct length and cross-sectional area of the conductor that will supply the electrical bonding will change for a TN, TT, or IT system.
Page 28 Optional customer-specified cable connectors are also possible. Husky can supply cables with installed connectors and specified pin locations that the customer wants for the IMM side or even the controller side.
Page 29 v 3.0 — March 2023 Altanium Valve Gate Sequencer Controller (VGSC) Analog input cables (W-X302, W-X303) must be routed away from all electrical noise generating cables or devices.
