    Note: 6" (150mm) clearance above/below and 3" (75mm) around required for ventilation.

Connect Wiring

  1. Remove screws necessary to remove cover.
  2. Connect motor leads to the terminal block labeled output.

  1. If using transducer, install into a 1/4" NPT non-metallic fitting and run the wire back to the VFD, up to the terminal area and cut to length.
    Note: Cut transducer leads to length, DO NOT coil extra wire or connect shielding ground wire. DO NOT run transducer leads next to motor leads. If necessary, only cross transducer and motor leads at a 90 degree angle.
  2. Install the Black wire into the I1- terminal and the remaining White or Red wire into the I1+ terminal on the control board.

    Note: Hold the BACK and ENTER buttons for 3 seconds to reset the VFD to default configuration

Optional: To add a run/stop from a PLC, float switch, or similar, remove the orange jumper wire and make those connections to AUX2 and COM.
Caution: No voltage may be introduced on these terminals.
