Cable length, wire gauge and power conditioning devices play a major role in the performance of your IMS Driver and Motor.
NOTE: The length of the DC power supply cable between the IMS Driver and the Motor should not exceed 50 feet.
Example A demonstrates the recommended cable configuration for the IMS Driver to Motor cabling under 50 Feet long. If cabling of 50 feet or longer is required, the additional length can be gained with the cable configuration in Example B.
Correct AWG wire size is determined by the current requirement plus cable length. Please see the IMS Driver to Motor Cable AWG Table in this Appendix.
