BULLETIN 150
This guide provides you with the basic information required to start up your SMC Flex controller. When reading
this document, look for this symbol “Step x” to guide you through the four basic steps required to install, start-up,
and program the SMC Flex.
The information provided in this Qu
downloaded by visiting www.ab.com. The Quick Start guide assumes the installer is a qualified person with
previous experience and basic understanding of electrical terminology, configuration procedures, required
equipment, and safety precautions.
For safety of maintenance personnel as well as other
maintenance activities, follow all local safety related work practices (for example, the NFPA 70E, Part II in the
United States). Maintenance personnel must be trained in the safety p ra ctices, procedures, and requirements that
pertain to their respective job assignments.
For detailed SMC Flex information including set-up, programming, precautions, and a

WARNING
Step 1 - Read the General Precautions
• Only personnel familiar with the controller and associated machinery should plan or implement the
installation, start-up, and subsequent maintenance of the system. Failure to do this may result in personal injury
and/or equipment damage.
• Hazardous voltage is present in the motor circuit ev
hazard, disconnect main power before working on the controller , motor, and control devices such as Start-Stop
push buttons. Procedures that require parts of the equipment to be energized during troubleshooting, testing,
etc., must be performed by properly qualified personnel, using appropriate local safety work practices and
precautionary measures.
• Failure of solid state power switching components can cause
motor. To prevent injury or equipment damage, the use of an isolation contactor or shunt trip type circuit
breaker on the line side of the SMC is recommended. This device should be capable of interrupting the motor’s
lock rotor current.
• Hazardous voltages that can cause shock, burn, or death
Power terminal covers for units rated 108…480 A can be installed to prevent inadvertent contact with
terminals. Disconnect the main power before servicing the motor controller, motor, or associated wiring.

NOTICE
• The controller contains ESD- (electrostatic discharge) sensitive parts and assemblies. Static control precautions
are required when installing, testing, servicing, or repairing the assembly. Component damage may result if
ESD control procedures are not followed. If you are not familiar with static control procedures, refer to
applicable ESD protection handbooks.
sed
• Stopping modes are not intended to be u
as an emergency stop. The user is responsible for determining
which stopping mode is best suited to the application. Refer to the applicable standards for emergency stop
requirements.
• Pump Stopping may cause motor heating depending on the me
chanical dynamics of the pumping system.
Therefore, select the lowest stopping time setting that will satisfactorily stop the pump.

• Slow Speed running is not intend
r continuous operation due to reduced motor cooling.
• The fan jumpers have been factory installed for 110/120V AC input. Refer to page 9 for 220/240V AC fan
wiring (5…480 A devices only).
• Tw o peripheral devices can be connected to the DPI port. The maximum output
current through the DPI port

e controller has been disconnected from the
power source. The protective module should be inspected periodically for damage or discoloration. Replace if
necessary.
• An incorrectly applied or installed contro
ller can damage components or reduce product life. Wiring or
application errors such as under sizing the motor, over sizing the controller , incorrect or inadequate A C supply,
excessive ambient temperatures, or power quality may result in malfunction of the system.
• The Motor Overload parameter must be
programmed by the installer to prov
ide proper protection. Overload
configuration must be properly coordinated with the motor.
• This product has been designed and tested as Class A equipment for
EMC compatibility . Use of the product in
domestic environments may cause radio interference, in which case, the installer may need to employ
additional mitigation methods.

• Disconnect the controller from the mot
or before measuring insulation resistance (IR) of the mot
or windings.
Voltages used for insulation resistance testing can cause SCR failure. Do not make any measurements on the
controller with an Insulation Resistance (IR or Megger) tester.
