Meeting the AC Input Power Requirements
CAUTION! Failure to provide the proper power source can cause the
following problems in your CS4000 Mini Controller with
Ethernet:
!
The nutrunner might shut down before it reaches the
target torque during a rundown cycle.
!
The nutrunner might not turn when a cycle-on signal is
applied to the system.
! The maximum free speed of the nutrunner might be
lower than specified.
For proper operation, especially during peak power draw periods, be sure to connect the CS4000 Mini
Controller with Ethernet to a clean source of AC power that is capable of maintaining the specified
line voltage under the required load conditions. If the AC line is subject to frequent over-voltage and
under-voltage conditions, some type of power line conditioning will be required.
NOTE: The maximum no-load speed of all tech-motive tool nutrunners
is based on an AC input voltage of 230V; if the actual input
voltage is lower, the maximum no load speed of the nutrunner
will be lower than specified.
It is recommended that the input voltage be between 208 and 250 VAC (single phase). A power source
capable of delivering 1 to 1.5 kVA should be sufficient in most applications.
Grounding
WARNING! The Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter cannot protect you
against any potential difference that exists between the
nutrunner body and any other metal fixturing or machinery.
You must observe the grounding requirements below as a
safety protection.
It is extremely important that you connect the CS4000 Mini Controller with Ethernet enclosure
properly to an earth ground. The CS4000 Mini Controller with Ethernet has a ground prong on the
power cord, (if supplied) but the AC outlet that will be used must be grounded properly, as well.
Also make sure that all other machinery, such as conveyors, which will transport or hold parts that will
come in physical contact with the nutrunner, are properly grounded.
