2. Mechanical Installation
2.1 Mounting
The unit must be fixed to a flat, vertical surface using the mounting holes (or slots) on its base-plate.
The mechanical outline diagrams give the dimensions and mounting hole positions for each model.
Ensure that:
•The orientation of the unit has the ‘TOP’ uppermost.
•The location allows adequate front access.
•You can view the touchscreen.
•Do not install other equipment that generates significant heat close to the soft starter.
2.2 Requirements for an Enclosure
For a typical industrial environment, an enclosure would provide the following:
•A single location for the unit and its protection/isolation switchgear
•The safe termination of cabling and/or busbars
Means to effect proper air flow through the enclosure.
2.3 Enclosure Ventilation
When fitting VMX-Synergy™ Plus into a cabinet, ventilation must be provided if the heat output
of the unit is greater than the cabinet will dissipate. Use the following formula to determine the
fan requirement. An allowance has been incorporated into the formula so that the figure for Q is
the air delivery in the fan suppliers’ data.
Heat dissipated can be approximated with the formulas:
Starting
Watts (VMX-Synergy Plus ™) = start current(A) x start time(s) x number of starts per hour/1200
iERs Disabled
Watts (VMX-Synergy Plus ™) = (VMX-Synergy Plus ™ current rating) x 0.6
iERs Enabled
The maximum power dissipation occurs when energy saving and the iERS is turned on
Watts (VMX-Synergy Plus ™) = (VMX-Synergy Plus ™ current rating) x 1.5
Where:
Q = volume of air (cubic metres per hour-m3/h)
Wt = Heat produced by the unit and all other heat sources within the enclosure (Watts)
Tmax = Maximum permissible temperature within the enclosure (50°C for a fully rated
VMX-Synergy PlusTM)
Tamb = Temperature of the air entering the enclosure (°C).
If CFMis preferred, substitute °F for °C. Q is now in CFM

REFER to TABLE 1 for input control voltages.
These recommended wiring diagrams are specifically where the control supply voltage (US) is identical to
the control circuit voltage (UC) and not to be supplied separately. Other wiring configurations must also be
in accordance with existing local and national codes and regulations.
RÉFÉRER au TABLEU 1 à la page 12 pour des tensions de contrôle d’entrée.
Ces schémas de câblage sont recommandées spécifiquement lorsque la tension d’alimentation de
commande (US) est identique à la tension du circuit de commande (UC). US et UC ne doivent pas être
alimentés séparément. Toutes les configurations de câblage doivent également être en conformité avec les
codes et les règlements locaux et nationaux en vigueur.
#2
Power factor correction capacitors must NOT be positioned between the soft start and the motor or there is
a risk of damaging thyristors due to current peaks.
Condensateurs de correction de facteur de puissance NE doivent pas être placés entre le moteur at le
démarreur progressif ou il y a un risqué d’endommager les thyristors en raison des pics de courant.

User programmable inputs are full programmable
1) Optional high reset. If this reset is required ensure “User
Programmable” is selected in the control method menu found
in the Digital Inputs menu. If you would prefer the reset to work
by removing and reapplying the Start Signal on D1 - 1I then
select “Two wire control” in the control method menu.
D1 – 1I = High Start / Low Stop
D1 – 2I = None
D2 – 1I = High Reset

These are the major components of the system. Local wiring regulations should be observed.
Note
the use of timers to ensure that a reversed voltage is not applied to the starter/motor
before the motor field has
had some chance to reduce to zero.
The thermal capabilities of VMX
