11.2.2 Connecting the VFD to the power supply
The VFD is connected to the pump on delivery, so you only need to connect the power supply.
As soon as the power supply is connected to the VFD and switched on, the pump can automati-
cally start operating depending on the potentiometer setting. Make sure the power supply to the
VFD is only switched on when the pump is ready for startup and operation.
There is no need to take special safety measures on the mains input side of the frequency con-
verter. We advise you to use ordinary mains fuses and a main switch or a circuit breaker.
Isolate the connector from the power supply simultaneously for all the poles (L1/L2/L2 or L1/N).
Requirements for the power cable cross section:
•
0.2 - 4/6 mm
•
To loop the mains voltage up to a cable cross section of 2 x 2.5 mm², use double-wire end
sleeves.
