The Model 460-VBM MotorSaver

®

 is an auto-ranging voltage monitor designed to protect 3-phase

motors—regardless of size. It can be used on 190–480VAC, 50/60Hz motors to protect from

damage caused by single-phasing, low voltage, high voltage, phase reversal, and voltage
unbalance.

The Model 460-VBM (Voltage Band Monitor) has low and high voltage adjustment knobs and will

only permit motor operation if the voltage is within these limits.

CONNECTIONS

1.

Mount the MotorSaver

®

 in a convenient location in or near the motor control panel. If the

location is wet or dusty, the MotorSaver

®

 should be mounted in a NEMA 4 or 12 enclosure. The

MotorSaver

®

 can be mounted to a back panel using two #6 or #8 x 5/8 screws or can be

snapped onto DIN rail.

2.

Connect L1, L2 and L3 on the MotorSaver’s terminal strip to the LINE SIDE of the motor starter

(see Figure 1).

3.

Connect the output relay to the circuitry to be controlled. For motor control, connect the

normally open contact in series  with the magnetic coil of the motor starter as shown in Figure 1.

For alarm operation, connect the normally closed contact in series with the control circuit as in

Figure 2.
