DANGER
HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE:
Never attempt to service while running. Many parts in this converter operate at line voltage. Use only
electrically insulated tools.
SERVICING INFORMATION:
This equipment should only be serviced by qualified electricians/personnel. Additional instructions are located in the
Fincor Automation Series 5740 Manual
Wyco Tool Company (1-800-233-9926)
go to and download the manual. Before servicing or removing the cover, disconnect the power supply.
www.Fincor.net
Wait 5 minutes before removing the cover to insure that the internal components have had time to de-energize/discharge.
NOTE:
not lit. Also check that the output voltage is below 24 Volts before beginning. If the unit is subjected to an excessive shock
by being dropped or impacted, or if the enclosure is damaged, it should be disconnected and not used until it has been
inspected and repaired by qualified electricians/personnel. Check all cables, plugs, and electrical outlets to be sure that
they are not damaged before connecting equipment.
Some components may remain energized/charged even after being unplugged.

Description & Features
This converter is intended to power three phase high cycle vibrators using a standard single phase
SELECTCycle
50/60 Hz, 230 volt power source.
Internally, it uses a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) which converts this single phase power to the required three phase
133/200 Hz power required by high cycle vibrators. The drive does this by using the single phase power to charge a DC
bus. It then switches the power on an off very rapidly to simulate the sinusoidal voltage required by high cycle vibrators.
Three different models are available which plug into standard 230 Volt generators:
- Model #SC1420 has a plug suitable for a four prong, turn-locking, 20 Amp, Nema L1420R receptacle.
- Model #SC1430 has a plug suitable for a four prong, turn-locking, 20 Amp, Nema L1430R receptacle.
- Model #Sc620 has a plug suitable for a three prong, turn-locking, 20 Amp, Nema L620R receptacle.
These converters are identical except for the input power plug used. A minimum of a 15 Amp supply is required.
The wiring for the above input plugs is as follows:
Wire Color Plug Terminal Purpose
White X -115 Volts AC
Black Y +115 Volts AC
Green G Ground
Not Used W Not Used
The speed of high cycle vibrators is determined by the frequency of the voltage supplied. This converter will output three
different frequencies 133, 180 and 200 Hertz which corresponds to a vibration speed of 8,000, 10,800 and 12,000 VPM.
This speed is selected with the rotary switch which can also be switched to the “Off” position.
The vibrators plug into two Hubbell (#HBL7410BG) or Leviton (#7420CR), 20 Amp, 4 pole, receptacle outlets. Two plugs
that will fit these receptacles are Pass & Seymour Model #7411SS and Hubbell #7411GBC.

Operation Information
To start up follow the steps below in order:
1. Insure that the equipment is in good safe working order. Check all cables, plugs and electrical outlets to be sure they
are not damaged before proceeding.
2. Insure that the converter rotary switch is in the off position.
3. Insure that the vibrators are turned off.
4. Apply power to the converter.
5. Set converter to the desired speed.
6. Turn vibrators on and off as desired with switches on vibrators.
To shut down follow the steps below in order:
1. Turn off the vibrators with switches on vibrators.
2. Turn rotary switch on the converter to the off position.
3. Unplug converter or turn off the power to the converter.

Troubleshooting Information
SYMPTOM
(GFI) Ground Fault
Interrupter repeatedly trips
Vibrators stop while
power is still applied to
converter and rotary
switch is not off
Vibrators do not come up
to full speed and converter
trips after 2 minutes
POSSIBLE CAUSE
Short in wires between high
cycle head and switch
Short in internal high cycle
motor
Short in high cycle cord or plug
Internal drive has tripped
Some lower voltage power
sources cannot start two
vibrators at once
REMEDY
Remove head and check wires
for wear. Repair as required
Replace high cycle motor stator
assembly
Replace cord or plug
Unplug converter for two minutes
and plug back in to reset. If the
problem persists have error code
on drive checked by a qualified
electrician/personnel. Refer to
drive manual for resolution
Follow start up procedure in order
by powering drive and turning it to
desired speed before turning on
vibrators with the switch on the
vibrators
Fuses on converter input
have blown
Excess current applied to
power drive
The drive will internally shut down
when most problems occur. If the
fuses blow it is an indication of a
serious problem and the converter
should be returned to the factory.
The high cycle vibrators should
also be thoroughly inspected
