OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
6.1 GETTING STARTED
Read item 5 USAGE CONDITIONS
6.2 SHAFT CONECTION TO POWER UNIT
Power unit is designed to facilitate a quick and safe connection to flexible shaft.
CONNECTION PROCEDURE:
1. Introduce power unit hexagonal axle into the provided shaft housing
2. Screw plastic nut of shaft to aluminium thread of power unit . (Be aware of nut turns left and not
tool is required)
CONNECTION CHOICES :
FLEXIBLE SHAFT LENGTH:
VIBRATOR DIAMETER
6.3 ELECTRIC MOTOR CONECTION TO THE SYSTEM
Turn off the motor switch before connecting it.
6.4 EARTH CONNECTION
To protect the user from an electrical shock, the motor should be correctly connected to earth.
The AVMU motors are equipped with three cables and their respective plugs. The adequate earth
box should be used to connect the motors. If the boxes are not available, an earth adaptor should be
used, before connecting the plugs.
en
6.5 EXTENSION CABLES
Always use extension cables with earth wire and its respective plug with earth in the female and
male switches, those which will use the male switch on the motor.
Do not use damaged or worn out cables.
To avoid heavy loads on top of cables.
To determine the transversal section, follow the following procedure
6.6 PROCEDURE TO DETERMINE THE NECESSARY TRANSVERSAL SECTION IN
CABLE EXTENSION
To do the following verifications and take the highest section of cable:
1. The ohmic resistance and inductive cable with the permitted voltage of 5%, cosphi=0,8 trough the
frequency and voltage curve
Entering the curve with the product: Intensity x Length=10x100=1000 Am We obtain a 4 mm section
2. The permitted heating of the cable according to VDE ( minimum transversal section table
required).
I. e. For 10 A, according to table for 15 A or inferior, the section is of 1 mm.
Therefore, the section chosen = 4mm, Always chose the highest transversal section of the two
verifications
AX25, AX38, AX48, AX58
