Hey all,
Need a bit of help on this one. I have a Monarch 61 that I am getting up and running. I have it wired with a VFD, and it works. However, I believe the motor is wired for 400 volts and I need it for 240. When I pulled the motor out to clean it up and re-wire it, I can only find 3 wires going into the case instead of 6. I even reached into the case to see if any of the wires were pushed back in, but couldn't feel anything. also did not see any other cover plates on the motor where other connections might be.
How do I get this motor properly wired for 240v use? if it stays wired for 480, will this damage the motor?
Attached are pics of the motor and info plates.
Thanks for any help.
