SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Warnings
“Warnings” caution readers about conditions, which can, if proper steps are
not taken, lead to a serious fault condition, physical injury, or death.
Readers are informed of situations that can result in serious physical injury
and/or serious damage to equipment with warning statements marked with
the following symbols:
Warning
Dangerous Voltage Warning: warns of situations in which
a high voltage can cause physical injury and/or
equipment damage. The text next to this symbol
describes ways to avoid the danger.
Warning
General Warning: warns of situations that can cause
physical injury and/or equipment damage by means other
than electrical. The text next to this symbol describes
ways to avoid the danger.

Warning
!
Only qualified electricians should carry out all electrical installation and maintenance work
on reactors.
All wiring must be in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and/or any other
codes that apply to the installation site.
Warning
Disconnect all power before working on the equipment.
Do not attempt any work on a powered reactor.
Warning
The reactor, VFD, motor, and other connected equipment must be properly grounded.
Warning
The VFD terminals and connected cables are at a dangerously high voltage when power is
applied to the VFD regardless of motor operation.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Line reactors are to be installed on the input side of the Variable Frequency Drive
(VFD). Please use the following guidelines when wiring the device:
•
The line reactor is a 3-phase device and should be wired in series and
positioned on the input side of the VFD or compressor. The upper
terminals A1, B1, and C1 are for the incoming power. The line reactor will
have pressure terminals located on each of the bus tabs. The lower
terminals A2, B2, and C2 are for the outgoing lines. Wiring from these
terminals should connect to the input of the VFD or compressor.
•
The line reactor should be located within 10 feet of cable of the input side
of the VFD or compressor.
•
A clearance of 3 inches minimum on all sides of the line reactor enclosure
is recommended for assisting in heat dissipation.
•
The area selected for the location of the line reactor should be free of dust,
chemicals, metal filings, paint fumes and overspray.
•
The unit is designed to be floor-mounted, or wall-mounted by incorporating
a bracket that would act as a shelf to support the reactor and enclosure.
See following table for weight and dimensions considerations.
