KBWM-120, 240 SIMPLIFIED OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT You must read these simplified operating instructions before proceeding. These instructions are to be used as a reference only and are not intended to replace the detailed instructions provided herein. [. . . ] The maximum allowable ambient temperature at full rating is 50 ºC (122 ºF). Note: The KBWMTM can be oriented so that the AC power and motor wiring can be brought in from the top of the control. Mount the rear cover so that the Bx knockouts are located on the top by rotating the rear cover 180º. The front cover is then installed right side up using the four (4) 6x32 screws previously removed from the top and bottom of the enclosure. After wiring the front cover, install the mating rear cover with the four (4) 6x32 screws previously removed from the top and bottom of enclosures.

WARNING!To avoid erratic operation, do not bundle AC line and motor wires with potentiometer, voltage following, enable, inhibit or other signal wiring. Use shielded cables on all signal wiring over 12" (30 cm) The shield should be earth grounded on the control side only. Wire the control in accordance with the National Electrical Code requirements and other codes that may apply to your area.

Caution: If control is wired to a transformer, it is advisable to switch the secondary to disconnect power. If the primary is switched, additional snubber capacitors may have to be added across terminals L1 and L2 to prevent power bridge damage. Separate branch fusing or circuit breaker may be required on 208/230 VAC applications. Motor Armature Wire the motor armature wires to terminals A+ and A-. Note: If motor runs in opposite direction to what is required, turn power off and reverse armature leads. Armature switching can cause catastrophic failure of motor and/or control. If reversing or dynamic braking is required, consult the Sales Department.

C. Ground (earth) Be sure to ground motor and control to green ground stud located between the Bx knockouts. Field (Shunt motors only) Do not use F+ and F- terminals for any other motor type. The KBWMTM control is primarily designed for permanent magnet (PM) motors. However, a shunt motor can also be controlled by wiring the shunt field directly to the 1/4" quick-disconnect terminals located on the main speed control module. [. . . ] For moderate changes in the maximum speed, there will only be a slight effect on the minimum speed setting.
