AC Power

  Motors with flying lead construction must be properly terminated and insulated.

Connect the motor leads as shown on the connection diagram located on the name plate or inside the
cover on the conduit box.  Be sure AC power is within 

±

5% of rated voltage and 

±

2% rated frequency.

Connection of L1, L2 and L3 to motor terminals U1, V1 and W1 determine rotation direction.

Three Phase Pole Changing Motors

For pole changing motors, please observe the wiring diagram in the motor's terminal box.

Dahlander connection

The highest number of poles = high speed is shown first (AM 160 ... 4/8)

With 2 Separate Windings

The low number of poles = high speed is shown first (AM 160 ... 4/8)

Guarding

Guards must be installed for rotating parts such as couplings, pulleys, external fans, and unused shaft
extensions. This is particularly important where the parts have surface irregularities such as keys, key
ways or set screws.
