GENERAL
The CARDUCTION is inspected and checked before leaving the factory to guarantee consistent quality and the
highest possible reliability. Instructions for installation, with general tips and directions, are provided as follows:
WARNING! Do not place the induction heater on an unstable or uneven ground. The heater
might fall, causing personal injuries or serious damage to the heater.
IMPORTANT! It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure that the equipment has been installed
as specified in the instructions provided. It is also the owner’s responsibility to ensure that the
equipment is inspected in accordance with applicable regulations before it is used.
PACKAGING AND DELIVERY INSPECTION
Check the delivery against the packing list, consignment note, or other delivery documentation to verify that
everything is included and in the correct quantity. Check the CARDUCTION carefully to make sure that no
damage has occurred during transport. If any part is damaged or missing, the heater may not be used until, the
part is repaired or replaced. If anything is missing, please contact your supplier. Remove all packaging material
from the heater. All shipping claims must be made within 15 days of receipt of the equipment. Do not throw
away the original packaging. Retain the original packaging just in case the system has to be shipped back to
our factory for future service. Ajax Tocco Magnethermic will not guarantee safety of the system if shipped in
non Ajax Tocco Magnethermic approved packaging.
CONNECTION OF ELECTRIC SUPPLY
The heater is designed for 120 or 240 Vac Single Phase, 50/60 Hz input. It is fitted with an IEC C-20 input
receptacle on the rear that allows different cord configurations to be connected. The appropriate power cord
must be connected depending on which line voltage setting will be used. See illustrations below for clarification
of input power cable configurations. Additionally, the copper HF jumper inside the inverter power source must
be properly configured for the appropriate line voltage. Failure to configure the HF jumper can result in un-
warranted damage to the system. See illustration below for configuration details on how to properly configure
the input line voltage of the system. A 120 Vac (NEMA 5-15 cord) is supplied with the system. A NEMA 6-15
240 Vac power cord can be purchased from Ajax Tocco Magnethermic for 240 Vac operation. The socket must
have a good earth ground connection, and it must also be protected with a fuse or circuit breaker as follows:
•
The induction power source is shipped with a 15-amp circuit breaker (CB1) installed.
•
The induction power source should be connected to a 15-amp, 120/240 VAC, grounded service outlet.
•
All CarDuction 33 systems are configured for 230V operation at the factory. Be sure to verify proper
configuration before connecting the system to an electrical supply.
