Multiquip DCA-20SPX - GAUGE READING/TERMINAL PANEL CONNECTIONS, Reading Amperage

DCA-20SPX — GAUGE READING/TERMINAL PANEL CONNECTIONS

How to Read the Output Terminal Gauges.

The gauges on the control panel are provided to help observe how much power is being supplied at the Output terminals lugs.

Reading Amperage

To determine the amperage at a terminal lug, set the AC Ammeter Change-Over Switch to the appropriate setting (Figure 15) to activate the AC Ammeter Gauge (Figure 16) and read the available amperage at the terminal lug.

For example, to measure the amperage at the U terminal lug, set the AC Ammeter Change-Over Switch to U and read the AC Ammeter Gauge.

UOV Terminal Output Voltages

240/120V output voltages can be obtained using the Output Terminal Lugs..

The voltage regulator (VR) allows the user to increase or decrease the selected voltage.
