Electrical
All electrical work associated with the F60
must be carried out by qualified electrical
personnel and all electrical work must
conform to AS/NZ standards and to local
wiring rules. For mains voltage applications
we recommend the supply to the F60 be
isolated by an RCD that has a maximum trip
current of 30mA.
WARNING
Introduction
The F60 is designed to directly control single-phase pump motors to 2.4kW. No
interposing contactor is required for such applications. If a supply neutral is
available the controller can also be used to control 3 phase pump motors via an
appropriate interposing contactor.
The F60 requires a 220V to 240V AC 50Hz supply when operated from the mains.
It can also be operated from an 18 to 24V AC or DC supply by utilising the low
voltage active terminal LV and common neutral terminal N (see the included wiring
diagrams). When operated from a low voltage DC supply the terminals LV and
neutral N are not polarity sensitive. The controller requires a stable supply voltage
in order to operate correctly. Pay particular attention to cable sizes, and ensure
cables are adequate for the specific pump motor load.
This is particularly important where long cable runs are to be used in the installation.
If the voltage drop associated with the starting of the pump motor is excessive the
F60 will automatically reset and this may cause the pump to jog. Jogging can
snap the main spindle of a pump very easily, so please take all precautions to
ensure the voltage supply to the F60 is stable and that the current carrying
capacity of the cable is adequate for the job.
