3. RECEIVING AND

UNPAKING

WARNING : If any parts are damaged or missing.

Make the following checks after unpacking :

(1) Check if there is any damage , foreign matter trapped , or water seepage

into the contactor.

(2) Check the nameplate to see if the specifications on the plate are correct.

(3) Check the contact wear gauge and control cable.

(4) Check the tripping rod (Latched type).

4. STORAGE AND IHANDLING

When the contactor is to be stored over a long period , the storage area

should be dry and dust free area.
If the contactor is left outdoors or in adverse conditions , corrosion

from gas, rust or insulation deterioration may result.

CAUTION : In handling , do not throw or drop contactor.

The contactor may break.

5. INSTALLATION

When installing , protect from dust. Particularly when the contactor

is installed while the building is under construction , shield it from

cement dust and other foreign matter.

The following prec:autions should be taken.

(1) The mounting surface must be horizontal (level : less than

+l

mm).

When the mounting surface is not horizontal , adjust with spacers.

(2) There are four mounting holes.

Use Ml 0 bolts to securely mount the contactor.

(3) In wiring the main circuit terminals, ground terminals and control

circuit , wires should be given sufficient length to be flexible.
The ground wires should be more than 5.5mm in cross section.

(4) Do not mount the contactor with its front inclined downward.

This may result in malfunction.

(5) Do not touch the vacuum interrupter surface with soiled hands.

(6) When it is applied to a capacitor load , be sure to used a space heater

to keep humidity low.

CAUTION : Do not install on energize contactor that has been bad condition.

9. OPERATION

The drive unit for the electromagnet is installed in the bottom frame.

Molded and wired on the printed circuit.
The closing circuii can be operated using either in AC or DC by the drive unit.
The optional latch trip circuit uses DC as standard.
When a latched contactor is operated using AC power, it is recommended that a

Capacitor trip device be used.

The standard operating voltage is as follows:

NOTE:.

Be sure to use quickly AC auxiliary relay contact NO for self-holding.

If the self-holding circuit is formed by using the auxiliary contact No
of the vacuum contactor , welding of the main contact may result when

the start button is pushed incompletely(refer to

A stable DC power source such as battery is recommended for the

control circuit.
If DC power source is not available, employ a AC closing and a
Capacitor trip.

Be sure to use the control connector between No.3 and No.13
(auxiliary contact) for trip circuit.

Warning : Make sure main power is OFF.

After mounting and wiring of the vacuum contactor, make the following inspections.

1)

Check for any loose connections.

2) Check for any wiring errors. Perform this test with only the control circuit energized.
confirm that the operation is correct. For the latched type contactor, check that the
latch correctly engages and trips when the close/trip signals are applied. Also,
manually trip the contactor using trip lever to verify proper operation.

1 1 . INSPECTION AND MAINTFNACE

To maintain the function and performance of the vacuum contactor for a long period
of time, the following inspections and maintenance procedures are recommended.

The intervals between inspections may vary depending on the conditions of use and

the environment under which the contactor is used. The initial inspection should be
carried out within one year of the start of equipment operation, and the succeeding
check intervals should be determined according to the result of the initial inspection.
See Section 2 for use under special environment as in outdoor cubicles.

Patrol

Inspection(every

l-6 months)

With the cubicle energized, visually check from out side the cubicle according to
the check list of Table

.Q3lTERIA FOR DURABILITY

(1) Electrical service

lift?

The electrical

servic:e

life of the vacuum interrupter is defined by the electrode wear the

number of open/close operations (mechanical life).

To determine the electrode wear, measure the gap between the lever and washer

(dimension A) in a closed start , as shown in Figure8. With the vacuum interrupter

closed, if a contact ‘wear gauge or a 1 .Omm thickness gauge cannot be inserted ,
this means the end of life is reached.
For the components listed below, replacement or detailed inspection and cleaning
are recommended after the indicated number of operations.

(2) Mechanical service life

The normally energized type has the mechanical service life of 0.25 million operations ,

and the latch type 0.25 million operations. (The mechanical service life of the vacuum
interrupter is 100,000 operations.)

For the components listed below, replacement or detailed inspection and cleaning are
recommended after the indicated number of operations.
