Electrical installation should always be carried out in a clean environment. Always ensure oxide-free surfaces for cable connections. Clean or polish surfaces if necessary.
To connect the U-V-W phases of the motor to the respective contacts of the control inverter, when present, it is necessary to open the terminal box cover and run the connecting cable through the provisions on the box. In the case of motors with cable output without a terminal box, connect U-V-W phases directly to the inverter.

A rotation of the shaft induces a tension proportional to the speed of the motor shaft.

By connecting the phases of the U-V-W motor (terminal board or direct wires) with the corresponding U-V-W terminals of the inverter and providing a positive speed command, the motor shaft rotates in accordance with the respective Datasheet.
Once connections have been made, check the following:
Below are instructions for the electrical connection
4a. Cable grommets option- Unscrew and then feed the connecting cables through the cable glands
4b. -Cable Gland Option - Screw on the cable glands to ensure IP sealing.
Below is an overview of the standard cable glands and grommets used.
Follow these directions when verifying the size of the cable used to ensure IP sealing.
| CABLE GLANDS | EXTERNAL WIRING Ø [mm] PLASTIC CABLE GLANDS | EXTERNAL WIRING Ø [mm] NICKEL-PLATED BRASS CABLE GLANDS | | --- | --- | --- | | M12 | 3,5 - 7 | 3 - 6.5 | | M16 | 5 - 10 | 5 - 10 | | M25 | 10 – 17 | 13 - 18 |
| CABLE GROMMETS | EXTERNAL WIRING Ø [mm] |
|---|---|
| M16 | 5 - 9 |
| M25 | 11 – 17 |
The thermal sensor, when present, must be connected to a dedicated input of the inverter for proper management of the motor temperature or to a dedicated trip device that can handle any anomalies.
