Cable length, wire gauge and power conditioning devices play a major role
in the performance of your IMS Driver and Motor.
NOTE: The length of the DC power supply cable to the IMS Driver should
not exceed 50 feet.
Example A demonstrates the recommended cable configuration for DC
power supply cabling under 50 feet long. If cabling of 50 feet or longer is
required, the additional length may be gained by adding an AC power
supply cable (see Examples B & C).
Correct A WG wire size is determined by the current requirement plus cable
length. Please see the IMS Driver Supply Cable A WG Table in this
Appendix.

Recommended Cable Configurations:
IMS Driver to Motor
Cable length, wire gauge and power conditioning devices play a major role
in the performance of your IMS Driver and Motor.
NOTE: The length of the DC power supply cable between the IMS Driver
and the Motor should not exceed 50 feet.
Example A demonstrates the recommended cable configuration for the IMS
Driver to Motor cabling under 50 Feet long. If cabling of 50 feet or longer is
required, the additional length can be gained with the cable configuration in
Example B.
Correct A WG wire size is determined by the current requirement plus cable
length. Please see the IMS Driver to Motor Cable A WG Table in this Appendix.
