Any application requiring frequent or severe braking, or 
operation more often than two stops per minute may 
require a different model SHORT-STOP. 

 

Applications involving exceptionally high inertia, such as 
press flywheels, extractors, etc may require models with 
longer than the standard 15-second maximum braking 
time. 

 

For information on applications such as these, please 
consult the factory or your local sales representative. 

 

All SHORT-STOP units may be used in normal ambient 
temperatures. The maximum temperature at the hottest 
part of the heat sink should not exceed 50 degrees C. 

 

SHORT-STOP units have internal fuses. These are fast- 
acting, semiconductor fuses. They must be replaced with 
the same type as originally supplied. 

THE USE OF 

IMPROPER FUSES IN THE SHORT-STOP WILL 
VOID THE WARRANTY!!!

INSTALLATION 

6.1

 

Mounting 

 

The SHORT-STOP may be mounted in any convenient 
location, and in any orientation, although vertical is 
preferable. Keep it away from sources of vibration, dust, 
dirt and extremes of temperature. Once mounted, it 
normally needs no maintenance. 

6.2

 

Wiring 

 

ALL WIRING SHOULD CONFORM WITH NATIONAL 
AND LOCAL ELECTRICAL CODES. 

 

Terminals 3 and 4 must be connected IN SERIES with the 
motor starting contactor coil(s). This can be done by 
putting Terminals 3 and 4 IN SERIES with the motor 
overload protection contacts, or IN SERIES with the 
control system STOP button. 

 

Figures 6.1 - 6.3 show some typical control systems, with 
interlock Terminals 3 and 4 wired appropriately.

All wiring to the SHORT-STOP is connected to the termi- 
nals provided. In general, the wires connected to Termi- 
nals 1, 2, 5 and 6 must be able to carry the full motor 
starting and running current. 

 

Wires connected to Terminals 3, 4, S, W, B and Y will 
carry control currents only and may be of the same gauge 
as the control wires for the motor starting contactor.

During normal running operation the interlock is closed 
and conduction takes place between Terminals 3 and 4. 

X1 

DISCONNECT AND LOCK OUT 
POWER TO SHORT-STOP TERMI- 
NALS 1 AND 2 BEFORE SERVICING 
THE SHORT-STOP 

THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT 
PART OF THE INSTALLATION. IF 
THIS WIRING IS NOT DONE 
CORRECTLY, THE WARRANTY IS 
VOID.
