W-VACiMB FIXED SECONDARY TERMINAL BLOCK OEM CONVERSION TYPE #2

RING-TYPE TERMINAL BLOCK

65A7321H01

2 of 41

PLEASE READ

• These instructions are provided so that an OEM can officially convert a

W-VACiMB Mining Breaker to an approved secondary variation. This

variation is required for some OEMs for them to be incompliance with

end customer needs. The OEM is authorized to do the conversion per

this process and to still have the proper warranty protection.

• This procedure is intended to show the necessary steps to remove the

standard secondary connector and replace it with a ring-type terminal

block that contains the following connections:

o Spring Charging Circuit

� Uses secondary connector pins 25 & 35.

o (1) Shunt Open Circuit

� Uses secondary connector pins 31 & 30.

o (1) Shunt Close Circuit

� Uses secondary connector pins 4 & 14.

o Control Under Voltage Release (UVR) Circuit

� Uses secondary connector pins 2 & 44.

� This requires the UVR option to be installed.

o (2) Normally Open Relays

� Relays are open when breaker is open.

� 1st Relay uses secondary connector pins 7 & 17.

� 2nd Relay uses secondary connector pins 9 & 19.

o (1) Normally Closed Relay

� Relay is closed when breaker is open.

� Uses secondary connector pins 23 & 33.

• Due to jumping connections in this procedure, the three relays will

have the same voltage/supply as the charge motor. Similarly, the UVR,

Close Coil, Charging Motor, and Trip Coil will share a common return

(See Appendix A). You may choose to not install the jumpers for more

circuit flexibility.

• Use appendices A through F for additional information.

TOOLS REQUIRED

• Flathead Screwdriver

• Male Pin Remover

• 8 mm Wrench

• 9 mm Wrench

• 10 mm Wrench

• Wire Strippers

• Standard Wire Crimpers

o To be used on 14 Gauge Insulated Wire Terminals

Step 3: Using the male pin remover, take out each pin. This can be accomplished by pressing the male pin remover into a pin slot and pushing hard to unseat the pin. Once the pin has been unseated, push from the opposite side of the secondary connector to pull the pin out of its slot. Repeat for ALL pins (more figures on next page).

Figure 3a: Line up the male pin remover with a pin.

Step 5: Separate the (14) wires needed for the secondary terminal block from the rest of the wires and set aside. See appendix A for a listing of the necessary wires.

Figure 5: Separating the (14) needed wires.

65A7321H01

Step 6: Pull the unnecessary wires through the hole in the top of the breaker. These wires will be secured inside the breaker in the proceeding steps.

Figure 6: Pull out the unnecessary wires.

14 Needed Wires

Step 7: Wrap about (22) inches of transparent protective covering around these unnecessary wires. These wires that are not needed will be secured inside of the breaker.

Figure 7: Transparent protective wiring cover.

65A7321H01

Step 8: If too long, cut the transparent protective wiring cover two inches from the end of these unnecessary wires.

Figure 8: Removal of excessive wiring cover.

Step 9: Cut an 8 inch section of the fire retardant arc protective tape.

Figure 9: Cutting an 8 inch section of arc protective tape.

Step 10: Wrap the arc protective tape around the exposed portion of the unneeded wires. Then, secure this protective tape with the electrical tape.

Figure 10: Wrapping the unneeded wires in electrical tape.

Step 11: Wrap the unused wires completely with electrical tape.

Figure 11: Unneeded wires completely covered.

65A7321H01

Step 12: We will now secure the unused wires inside the breaker. Place (2) cable tie holders on the inside wall of the breaker (spring side). Position them about three inches from each other and a half inch from the front edge.

Figure 12: Placement of cable tie holders.

65A7321H01

Step 13: Insert cable ties through the inslots of the tie holders to secure the unused wires.

Figure 13: Securing of the unneeded wires.

65A7321H01

Step 14: Place another cable tie holder as shown closer to the back of the breaker to hold the end of the unneeded wire bundle in place. Zip tie the bundle to the cable-tie holder.

Figure 14: Securing of the wires to avoid interference with spring.

65A7321H01

21 of 41

Step 15: The wires should be secured in this manner and any excess cable ties should be clipped.

Figure 15a (left): Used three zip ties to secure the unused wires to the inner wall.

Figure 15b (right): Wires are secured from both the closing and open spring assemblies.

In Process Quality Check: Operate the breaker mechanically and make sure no moving parts interfere with the wiring.

Step 16: Wrap transparent wiring cover around the (14) wires used for the terminal blocks. The wiring cover should span roughly eight inches.

Figure 16: Wrapping of the transparent wire covering on terminal wires.

Step 17: Unfasten the bolt on the top center of the breaker that helps secure the mechanism in place using a 10 mm wrench.

Figure 17: Temporary removal of the center bolt. It will be used for mounting

the mounting bracket.

65A7321H01

24 of 41

Step 18: Unfasten this bolt on the underside of the top-right of the breaker ground terminal connection bolt using an 8 mm wrench.

Figure 18: Removal of the bolt.

65A7321H01

25 of 41

Step 19: Fasten the DIN-Rail onto the top of the breaker using the bolts removed in steps 17 and 18. For the bolt on the right, remember to reconnect the grounding wire on the inside (Figure 18). You will not be able to access the breaker’s center bolt once the terminal block is mounted on the DIN-Rail.

Figure 19: Securing of the din-rail.

65A7321H01

26 of 41

Step 20: Fasten the terminal block to the four PEM studs on the DIN-Rail using the (4) spacers and the (4) Nylon Locking Nuts.

Figure 20a: Place terminal block on PEM studs

Figure 20b: Place spacers and nylon locking nuts on all (4) PEM studs and

tighten down.

Step 21: Slide the white wire labels on the wires back until they reach the transparent wire cover.

Figure 21: Sliding the white labels back.

65A7321H01

28 of 41

Step 22: Remove excess wire on each wire by lining up the wire with the center of the terminal designated for that wire. The wires will increase in length as you go down the DIN-Rail from left to right. See appendix A for the proper location of each wire to determine the appropriate length.

Figure 22: Snipping of the wires.

65A7321H01

29 of 41

Step 23: Strip all 14 wire ends using the wire stripper. Wires are 14 Gauge and should be stripped approximately 0.25” (7mm).

Figure 23a: Stripping each wire.

Figure 23b: All needed wires have been stripped.

65A7321H01

Step 24: For each wire, place the ring to be crimped on the end of each wire, allowing a small amount of the wire to be exposed. Then crimp the ring terminal to the wire.

Figure 24a: Uncrimped ring terminal on stripped wire.

Step 25: Repeat step 24 for all wires.

Figure 25: All wires are the appropriate length and have ring terminals crimped

on.

Step 26: Attach the appropriate wire to the appropriate terminal. Repeat for all wires. See attached appendix (A) for wiring locations.

Figure 26: Attach each wire to its terminal. There will be two extra terminals that can be used for future needs.

Step 27:

Take the first 8 screws out of the non-breaker side of the terminal

block. Then, take (3) of the two-pole jumpers and arrange them on

the terminal block so terminals 1 through 4 are connected together.

Take another (3) jumpers to connect terminals 5 through 8. Screw

the jumpers into place using the terminal block screws.

Figures 27a & 27b: Terminals 1-4 will be jumped together. Terminals 5-8 will

also be jumped together. Ensure 4 & 5 are NOT jumped together.

Jump 1-4 Jump 5-8

Step 28:

Attach a cable tie holder to the top of the breaker and secure the

wires with a cable tie.

Figure 28a: Place a cable tie holder on top of the breaker.

QUALITY CHECK

• Visually inspect the breaker for defects.

• Make sure all of the electrical connections are correctly secured.

• Make sure all of the electrical connections are in accordance to the

wiring schematic.

• Make sure all of the bolted connections that were added as a part of

this procedure are properly tightened.

• Electrically test the operation of the breaker to make sure the

modifications were correctly done and that the breaker properly

operates. Electrically operate the breaker five times for a charge -

open - close type operation.

• Inspect the operation of the large black closing mechanism spring to

make sure that it does not hit the modified wiring harness on the left

side of the mechanism side sheet. The spring should have 0.5” or

more clearance during opening or closing.

• Make sure the front cover is properly mounted.
