1.3 Design Features

The standard JKSSS+ configuration is a complete NEMA Class E-2 motor
controller which includes the following features:
• Isolation Switch:
An isolation switch is provided in the incoming power section of the starter
assembly. The maximum voltage is 7200V.
Power is switched on and off to the controller by a fixed-mounted, externally-

operated, three-pole isolation switch. When the switch is in the opened
position, incoming power is isolated from the controller compartment interior by
an automatic shutter. For additional safety, the load terminals of the switch are
automatically grounded when the switch is opened. This allows any stored
energy in the controller load circuit to be discharged by closing the contactor
using test power.
A viewing window in the Main Incoming Power Compartment allows visual
inspection of the disconnect blade status with the medium voltage door closed.
The external operating handle for the isolation switch is designed to accept up
to three external padlocks in the OFF position.
For additional information on the isolation switch, see instruction manual

VF010H01, VF010H02 or VF010H03.
• Power Fuses: As a NEMA Class E2 controller, current limiting primary power

fuses are provided for each incoming phase.
Typically the fuses are ANSI class “R” for units rated up to 4800V. The fuses
are sized according to motor locked rotor current and are coordinated with the
solid state overload relay. The fuse and overload coordination is designed to
allow the controller and contactor to clear low and medium level faults. This
prevents exceeding the contactor interrupt ratings. Fuses interrupt high level
faults that exceed the contactor interrupt ratings. Fuse holders include blown
fuse indicators (wired to the isolation contactor circuit) to disconnect all three
phases if any one of the fuses clears (see section 2.7).
• SCR Power Modules: For each phase, the SCRs are

matched devices arranged in inverse parallel pairs and in
series strings as indicated in the chart to facilitate sufficient
PIV ratings for the applied voltage.
• RC Snubber Networks: Provide Transient Voltage Protec-

tion for SCR Power Modules in each phase to reduce dv/dt
damage.
• Firing Circuit: The SCRs are gated (turned on) using a

Sustained Pulse Firing Circuit. This circuitry is amplified and
isolated from the control voltage by means of fiber optics for
current and ring transformers.
Unit PIV Ratings
JKSSS+ Series - 4

• Contactors: Vacuum contactors are provided for both In-Line Isolation and SCR
Bypass. The contactor voltage ratings are: 7.2kV for 2300 - 6900V units.
A sequencing feature controls the contactors. Under normal operating conditions

this ensures that both contactors make and break under no-load conditions to
maximize contactor life. Vacuum contactors are rated for the maximum starting
requirement of the unit design. The Bypass Contactor is rated to be capable
of emergency start. For further information on the vacuum contactor, see the
instruction manual on the vacuum contactor supplied with the equipment, and
also either VF010H01 (400A Drawout Type) or VF010H03 (Fixed Type).
• Soft Start Only Option: The JKSSS+ Series is also offered in an optional “Soft
Start Only” package for use in retrofitting behind an existing customer supplied
line start controller. In this configuration, the Disconnect Switch, Fuses and
Line Isolation Vacuum Contactor are NOT included in the JKSSS+ unit, so
proper interlocking of sections containing medium voltage becomes the install-
er’s responsibility.
All retrofit “Soft Start Only” packages must be used with complete line isola-
tion using a contactor or other “air-gap” device. The Optional “Soft Start Only”
includes overload protection in normal operation mode and will sequence the
isolation contactor, so all logic control should be done at the JKSSS+ control
unit. Avoid turning the JKSSS+ on and off using the isolation device.
1.4 Structure and Power Bus

The JKSSS+ Series is a heavy duty design. Special consideration has been given
to the enclosure and unit design to ensure that it is suitable for most applications and
environments.
• Structure: 11 gauge frame with 16 gauge side, back and top sheets. Doors are
12 gauge steel. The enclosure assembly is NEMA / EEMAC type 1 as standard.
Type 12 and 3R are available as an option.
• Sections: In a typical arrangement, each enclosure is divided vertically into

three major compartments, each with a separate door. In the JK400, the upper-
most and lowermost compartments contain medium voltage controller compo-
nents (>600V) while the middle compartment contains low voltage components
(<600V). Other variations of this basic arrangement are possible.
The Main Incoming Power Compartment houses the main disconnect switch,
amain power fuses and input isolation contactor. A viewing window provides
clear indication of the switch position without opening the compartment. Main
Bus Compartment contains the horizontal bus bars (if provided). Top, bottom or
side cable entry can be made with minimum bending.
One or more Starter Power Compartments contain the bypass vacuum con-
tactors, SCR power modules, instrument transformers and all other medium
voltage devices. Adequate room is provided for motor lead connections to be
made with minimum conductor bend.
A Low Voltage Control Compartment houses the digital microprocessor

controller and LCD keypad operator interface, along with any other low voltage
devices. This allows the operator to make adjustments without exposure to the
line voltages.
JKSSS+ Series - 5

Removable conduit entry plates are provided in the bottom of the enclosure to
facilitate drilling and punching of conduit holes without exposing the equip-
ment to contamination from metal debris.
• Enclosure Finish: The enclosure is suitable for use in noncorrosive environ-

ments. The paint is ANSI 61 gray polyurethane powder over a zinc phosphate
pretreatment with a minimum thickness of 2 mil. 11 gauge steel is used in all
enclosures. All NEMA 1 & 12 units have bottom entrance plates.
• Lifting Provisions: Eyes or angles capable of supporting the maximum

weight of each shipping split are provided on the top of the enclosure.
• Power Bus: Optional main horizontal phase bus bars can be configured to
extend the entire length of the starter lineup. Bus bar material is tin-plated or
silver-plated copper. All bus ratings are per UL Standard 347.
• Bracing: Bus bars are braced with non-tracking fire resistant non-hygroscopic
insulation supports and have a minimum fault current rating of 50,000 Amps.
• Connections: All bus connections use 2 bolts minimum, with Belleville spring
washers to ensure tightness. Splice kits for each shipping split are included,
along with specific installation instructions.
• Ground Bus: A continuous ground bus bar with a minimum rating of 400
Amps extends the entire length of the starter near the bottom of each enclo-
sure. A grounding strap connects each vertically adjacent compartment and
also ties the grounding arm of the disconnect switch to the main ground bus
bar (see section 2.11).
• Seismic Qualifications: The entire starter assembly, when properly installed,

withstands vertical and horizontal accelerations typical of seismic Zones 1
through 4 as defined in the UBC. The assembly will not overturn or show
significant lateral movement, but cannot be expected to continue operating
during, or after, a seismic event.
1.5 Theory of Operation

The power of the JKSSS+ Series is in the CPU, a microprocessor based
protection and control system for the motor and starter assembly. The CPU
uses Phase Angle Firing of the SCRs to apply a reduced voltage to the motor,
and then slowly and gently increases torque through control of the voltage and
current until the motor accelerates to full speed. This starting method lowers
the starting current of the motor, reducing electrical stresses on the power
system and motor. It also reduces peak starting torque stresses on both the
motor and load mechanical components, promoting longer service life and
less downtime.
Acceleration: The JKSSS+ Series comes standard with several methods of

accelerating the motor so that it can be programmed to match almost any
industrial AC motor application.
The factory default setting applies a Voltage Ramp with Current Limit as this
has been proven the most reliable starting method for the vast majority of
applications. Using this starting method, the Initial Torque setting applies just
enough voltage to the motor to cause the motor shaft to begin to turn. This
voltage is then gradually increased over time (as per the Ramp Time setting)
JKSSS+ Series - 6

until one of three things happen: the motor accelerates to full speed, the Ramp
Time expires or a Current Limit setting is reached.
If the motor accelerates to full speed before the ramp time setting has expired,
an automatic Anti-Oscillation feature will override the remaining ramp time and
full voltage will be applied. This will prevent any surging or pulsation in the mo-
tor torque, which might otherwise occur due to the load not being fully coupled
to the motor when operating at reduced voltage and torque levels.
If the motor has not reached full speed at the end of the ramp time setting,
the current limit setting will proportionally control the maximum output torque.
Feedback sensors in the JKSSS+ Series provide protection from a stall condi-
tion, an overload condition or excessive acceleration time.
The Current Limit feature is provided to accommodate installations where there

is limited power available (for example, on-site generator power or utility lines
with limited capacity). The torque is increased until the motor current reaches
the preset Current Limit point and it is then held at that level. Current Limit
overrides the ramp time setting so if the motor has not accelerated to full speed
under the Current Limit setting, the current remains limited for as long as it
takes the motor to accelerate to full speed.
When the motor reaches full speed and the current drops to running levels, the
soft starter detects an At-Speed condition and closes the Bypass Contactor.
The Bypass Contactor serves to shunt power around the SCR stack assemblies
to prevent heat buildup in the starter enclosure due to the slight voltage drop
across the SCRs. At this point, the soft starter has the motor operating at full
voltage, just as any other starter would.
Other starting methods available in the soft starter are:
· Current Ramp: Uses a closed current feedback PID loop to provide a linear
torque increase up to a Maximum Current level.
· Constant Current: Current is immediately increased to the Current Limit

point and held there until the motor reaches full speed.
· Custom Curve: Gives the user the ability to plot torque and time points on a
graph. The soft starter will then accelerate the motor following these points.
· Tachometer Feedback Ramp: Uses a closed loop speed follower method

monitoring a tachometer input signal from the motor or load shaft.
Deceleration: The soft starter provides the user with the option of having
the load coast to a stop or controlling the deceleration by slowly reducing the
voltage to the motor upon initiating a stop command. The Decel feature is the
opposite of DC injection braking in that the motor will actually take longer
to come to a stop than if allowed to coast to a stop. The most common ap-
plication for the Decel feature is pumping applications where a controlled stop
prevents water hammer and mechanical damage to the system.
JKSSS+ Series - 7

1.6 General Protection

The soft starter is provided with a built-in motor protection relay that can be
programmed for primary protection of the motor/load system. Operation of the soft
starter can be divided into 4 modes; Ready, Start, Run and Stop.
Ready Mode: In this mode, control and line power are applied and the starter is
ready for a start command. Protection during this mode includes the monitoring
of current for leakage through multiple shorted SCRs or welded contacts on the
Bypass Contactor. Other protection features in effect are:
· Starter Temperature
· Shorted SCR
· Phase Reversal (if enabled)
· Line Frequency Trip Window
· External Input Faults
Note: The “Programming Mode” can only be entered from the Ready Mode.
During programming, all protection features and start command are disabled.
Start Mode: These additional protection functions are enabled when the soft
starter receives a valid Start command:
· Phase Reversal (if enabled)

· Start Curve
· Acceleration Timer
· Phase Imbalance
· Short Circuit / Load Pre-check (Toe-in-the-Water)
· Ground Fault (Optional)
· Accumulated Starting FLA Units (I2t Protection)
· Overload Protection
· Thermal Capacity
Note: Shorted SCR and Shunt Trip protection are no longer in effect once the
soft starter goes into the Start Mode.
Run Mode: The soft starter enters the Run Mode when it reaches full output
voltage and the motor current drops below the FLA setting (motor nameplate
FLA plus service factor) for a predetermined period of time. During the Run Mode
these additional protection features are enabled:
· Running Overload Curve

· Phase Loss
· Under Current / Load Loss
· Over Current / Electronic Shear Pin (Jam protection)
Stop Mode: Once a Stop command has been given, the protection features
change depending on which Stop Mode is selected.
· Decel Mode: Retains all protection features of the Run Mode. At the end of
Decel, the motor will be stopped and the protection features change as
indicated below.
JKSSS+ Series - 8

· Coast-To-Stop Mode: Power is immediately removed from the motor and the
soft starter returns to the Ready Mode.
Additional protection features activated when the stop command is given include:
· Coast-Down / Back Spin Timer
· Starts-per-Hour
· Time Between Starts
1.7 Thermal Overload Protection

The JKSSS+ Series plays an important role in the protection of your motor in that it
monitors the motor for excessive thermal conditions due to starting, running or even
ambient conditions. The soft starter has a Dynamic Thermal Register system in the
CPU that provides a mathematical representation of the thermal state of the motor.
This thermal state information is kept in memory and is monitored for excesses in
both value and rate of change. Input is derived from current imbalances and RTD
measurements making it dynamic to all processes involving the motor. The starter
monitors these conditions separately during Start and Run modes to provide proper
thermal overload protection at all times.
Start Mode overload protection is selectable using one of three methods:
· Basic Protection: I2t data is accumulated and plotted based on an Overload

Curve selected in programming. This is programmed per NEMA Class 5-30
standard curves and is based on the Locked Rotor Current (from the motor
nameplate) as programmed into the soft starter.
· Measured Start Capacity: The user enters a measured amount of thermal

capacity from a pre-selected successful start as a setpoint to the Thermal Reg-
ister for the soft starter to follow.
· Learned Curve Protection: The user sets the soft starter to the “LEARN”
mode and starts the motor under normal starting conditions. The CPU then
samples and records 100 data points during the start curve, analyzes them and
creates a graphical representation in memory. The soft starter is then switched
to Curve Follow protection mode and monitors motor performance against this
curve. This feature is especially useful in initial commissioning tests to record a
base line performance sample (in this case, it is not necessarily used for motor
protection).
Run Mode overload protection is initiated when the starter determines that the
motor is At-Speed. Overload Protection is initiated when the motor RMS current
rises above a “pick-up point” (as determined by the motor nameplate FLA and
service factor). Run mode protection is provided by the CPU monitoring the Dy-
namic Thermal Register. Data for the Dynamic Thermal Register is accumulated
from I2t calculations and cooling rates. A trip occurs when the register reaches
100% as determined by the selected Overload Protection Curve (NEMA Class
5-30 standard curves) and is based on the programmed Locked Rotor Current
indicated on the motor nameplate. The Dynamic Thermal Register is altered, or
“biased”, by the following conditions:
· Current Imbalance: Will bias the register higher to add protection from ad-
ditional motor heating during a current imbalance condition.
· Normal Cooling: Provided when the motor current drops below the pick-up
point or the motor is off line. The cooling rate is lower for motors that are off-line
(such as after a trip) since cooling fans are also inoperative.
JKSSS+ Series - 9

· RTD Input: Will bias the register in either direction based on real-time input of
the motor, bearing and even ambient temperature conditions.
· Dynamic Reset is another feature that adds reliability and consistency to the
performance of the soft starter. If a motor overload condition occurs and the soft
starter trips, it cannot be reset until sufficient cool down time has elapsed. This
cool down time is determined by the thermal state of the motor when it tripped
(i.e. hot motors cool more quickly due to additional convection). The cool down
time is also biased by RTD measurements when used.

· Retentive Memory provides continuous overload protection and real time
reset even if power is lost. Upon restoration of power, the soft starter will
read the Real Time Clock and restore the thermal register to what it should be
given the elapsed time.
· Learned Reset Capacity is a feature that is unique to the JKSSS+ Series. By

sampling the amount of thermal capacity used in the previous three successful
starts, the soft starter will not allow a reset until a sufficient amount of thermal
capacity has been regained in the motor. This prevents nuisance tripping and
insures that unsuccessful start attempts (which would otherwise use up the
starts-per-hour capacity of the motor) are not counted.
1.8 Firing Circuit

The SCR gate firing circuit is critical to performance and stability of the system.
The firing circuit includes several unique features which enhance the ruggedness,
noise immunity and flexibility for maximized performance. In most applications, this
performance is attained without the need for reactors or field installed devices. These
features include:
Auto Synchronizing of the gate timing pulses match each phase firing angle
to their respective phases. The starter actively tracks minor shifts in the line fre-
quency, avoiding nuisance tripping that may happen with conventional gate firing
systems. This is especially useful on portable or backup generator supplies,
allowing the starter to be used confidently in applications that have unstable
power.
Sustained Pulse firing keeps the firing signal active for 270 electrical degrees,
ensuring that the DC gate pulse causes the SCR to fire even if line noise is
present at a critical moment. This provides the soft starter with superior noise
immunity and protects against misfiring, enhancing the system reliability.
Closed Loop Firing Control is a method of balancing the SCR firing pattern
based on the desired output. The CPU uses feedback signals from both the
output current and voltage providing smooth output and preventing imbalances
during ramping which prevents unnecessary motor heating.
Transformer Isolation of the firing signals prevents interference from line noise
and EMI/RFI signals that may be present. Specially designed 120V 3 phase iso-
lation transformers provide potential measurement, firing board power and gate
power systems while being isolated from the line voltage. High isolation Ring
Transformers are used to step this down to 28Vac for the Sustained Pulse firing
circuit, providing further isolation for the SCR gates.
Fiber Optic Isolation is provided for all signal interfaces between the Medium
Voltage and Low Voltage systems. Even the current signals from CTs are con-
verted to fiber optic signals for maximum isolation and safety.
JKSSS+ Series - 10

1.9 Electronics
The JKSSS+ Series electronics systems are divided into two categories, Low Voltage
and Medium Voltage, based solely on where they are located in the starter structure.
Low Voltage electronics include the Keypad Operator Interface, CPU and Main
Power PC boards are located in an isolated Low Voltage Compartment of the
enclosure.
· Keypad Operator Interface: a 2 line x 20 character LCD display with backlight-

ing for low ambient conditions. The display reads out in truncated English and
can show multiple data points in each screen. Also included are 12 LED indica-
tors, which include Power, Run, Alarm, Trip and the status of the 8 Aux. Relays.
It communicates to the CPU via a serial link and, if necessary, can be remotely
mounted up to 1000’ from the soft starter.
· CPU Board: where the microprocessor and communications coprocessor

reside. It is attached to the main power board, and communicates to it and
the Keypad Operator Interface via serial links. The CPU determines operating
functions, stores user programming and acts upon feedback signals for faults,
metering and historical data. This board also contains the flash EPROM and
SRAM memory, as well as the Analog I/O and terminations. Keypad Operator Interface
· Main Power Board: is also referred to as the Firing Board. It contains the
Digital I/O relays and interfaces to the TCB board (see below) for user inter-
face. It also controls the sequencing of the Isolation and Bypass contactors with
the SCR firing. This board generates all firing signals for the SCR stacks and
receives feedback signals from fiber optic transmitters. It converts analog levels
to digital signals for the CPU. These firing pulses are via fiber optic signals to
isolate them from the Medium Voltage environment.
Control Electronics are located in the medium voltage and low voltage sections of
the soft starter. The main line power must be disconnected before these electronics
can be accessed. They include the TCB, Gate Drive and Temp/CT boards.
· TCB (Terminal and Control Board): is the user connection interface board. It
is located in the Low Voltage section in order to satisfy UL termination require-
ments, and does not connect directly to the medium voltage components other
than the contactor coils. This board contains the user terminal blocks, output
relays (duplicated), inputs and control power connections. It also contains ad-
ditional timed relays for interfacing with Power Factor Correction contactors (if
used) and other external devices. Please note Power Factor Capacitor warn-
ings in Section 2.8.
· Gate Drive Boards: located directly on the SCR stacks. These boards com-
municate to the Main Power board via fiber optic cables. They amplify the gate
pulse signals with power from the Ring Transformers to create the Sustained
Pulse Firing of the SCRs. There is one Gate Drive board for each pair of SCRs
in each stack.
· Temp / CT Boards: are attached to the Gate Drive boards on the SCR stacks
and provide the heat sink temperature and current signals back to the Main
Power Board via fiber optic cables.
· MOV Boards: are attached to standoffs mounted on the SCR heat sinks and
are mounted directly below the Gate Drive boards. The MOV boards are used
to protect the gate/cathode section of the SCRs.
· DV/DT Boards: are also attached to standoffs mounted on the SCR heat sinks
and are mounted below the MOV boards. The DV/DT boards are used to re-
duce voltage transients across the stack assemblies.

2.1 - Receiving, Handling/Moving and Unpacking

Upon receipt of the equipment, do the following:
• All JKSSS+ Series units are shipped in the vertical (upright) position and should be
handled accordingly when received. If the controller is not upright upon receipt, notify
the carrier of possible damage. Upright the unit as soon as possible. Immediately
notify the nearest Toshiba representative.
• Carefully unpack the unit and make an immediate inspection for any damage which
might have occurred during shipment. If damage is found, it should be noted with the
carrier prior to accepting the shipment, if possible. Report any damage immediately
and file a claim with the freight carrier within 15 days of receipt.
• Carefully unpack the equipment sufficiently to check for concealed damage and
to verify that the starter description on your unit matches your purchase order.
The starter information is located on stickers in the medium voltage, incoming
compartment.
• Keep the equipment upright. If is located on stickers in the medium voltage, incoming
compartment.
WARNING Do not install or energize equipment that has been damaged.
CAUTION Do not lay the equipment on its side or upside down.
Handling and Moving

Medium voltage motor controllers should be handled with care, to avoid damage to
components and to the frame or its finish.
The capability of the moving equipment to handle the weight of the controller shipping
section should be confirmed. The equipment should remain secured to the shipping skid
to prevent distortion of the frame during moving and to minimize tipping. Extreme care
should be exercised during any movement and placement operations to prevent dropping
or tipping.
Do not place any part of your body beneath equipment

WARNING
being lifted. Improperly secured equipment
can fall or tip over quickly and without notice.
Using a Forklift
A forklift truck may offer a more convenient method of handling the controller. A safety
strap should be used when handling with a forklift. The ends of the forks should not enter
the bottom of an open-bottom enclosure.
Overhead Lifting
When it is necessary to move the equipment between elevations, overhead hoisting may
be required. Lifting angles (for multiple controller sections) are provided on top of the
enclosure for this purpose. Spreaders (Fig. 1) should be used to provide the vertical lift
on single controllers to prevent eye-bolt failure.
JKSSS+ Series - 12

Always keep the controller upright while lifting. Some controller sections may contain
heavy or special equipment that will cause the center of gravity to be off-center. Rigging
lengths should be adjusted to maintain the controller in an upright position. The angle
between the lifting cables and vertical should not be allowed to exceed 45 degrees
(Fig. 2). Ropes or cables should not pass through the holes in lifting angles or eye-
bolts. Slings with safety hooks or shackles of adequate load rating should be used.
2.2 - Initial Inspection

• Make a complete visual check of the unit for damage which
may have occurred during shipping and handling. Do not
attempt to continue installation or start up the unit if it is
damaged.
• Check for loose mechanical assemblies or broken wires
which may have occurred during transportation or handling.
Loose electrical connections will increase resistance and
cause the unit to function improperly.
• Prior to beginning the installation, verify that the motor and
JKSSS unit are rated for the proper amperage and voltage.
2.3 - Location
Storage
If the controller is to be stored for any length of time prior to
installation, the packing should be restored for protection
during that period. Where conditions permit, the packing
should be left intact until the controller is at the final installation
position. If the packing is removed, the top and openings Fig. 1 Use of Spreader Bar - Single Section
of the controller should be covered during the construction
period to protect it against dust and debris.
Indoor Equipment
Controllers designed for indoor installation (NEMA Type 1, 12)
which are not to be installed and energized immediately, should
be stored in a clean, dry space where a uniform temperature
prevents condensation. Preferably, the controller should be
stored in a heated building, with adequate air circulation and
protected from dirt and water. Equipment should be stored
where it is not subject to mechanical damage, especially during
building construction. An indoor controller that is to be stored
outdoors should be securely covered for protection from weather
conditions and dirt. Temporary electrical heating should be
installed to prevent condensation. Approximately 150 watts per
enclosure is usually adequate.
NOTE: All loose packing or flammable materials should be

removed before energizing space heaters.
Fig. 2 Lifting Multiple Sections
Outdoor Equipment
An unenergized controller designed for outdoor installation (NEMA Type 3R, EPIC
building, etc.) should be kept dry internally by installing electrical heating or by energiz-
ing self-heaters, if provided. All openings, either used or unused should be covered or
sealed to prevent the entry of rain, vermin, insects, etc.
JKSSS+ Series - 13

Routine Inspection
Routine scheduled inspection should be established if storage for an extended period is
anticipated. This is to check for condensation, corrosion, vermin, and adequacy of space
heating. Prior to inspection, the equipment should be carefully examined for evidence of
physical damage, corrosion, or other deterioration.

WARNING Do not install equipment found to have damage or
deterioration that could affect the unit performance.
Overhead should be checked for plumbing condensation, sprinklers or similar possible

sources of trouble. A clearance of 1/2 inch should be provided between a wall and the rear
of the controller for indoor equipment, when rear access is not required. If rear access is
required in either environment, a minimum of 30 inches should be provided. A minimum
of 48 inches working space should be allowed in front of the controller. This minimum
should be increased if necessary to accommodate movement around open enclosure
doors to comply with applicable codes.
SERVICE CONDITIONS
Toshiba medium voltage controllers are intended for usual service conditions as defined
by NEMA. The equipment should not be exposed to corrosive or explosive fumes, dusts,
vapors, dripping or standing water, abnormal vibration, shock, tilting, or other abnormal
operation conditions. The temperature of the ambient air surrounding the controller should
be between the limits of 0°C(32°F) and +40°C(104°F). The altitude of the equipment
installed should not exceed 3300 ft (1000m).
NOTE: Temperature or altitude conditions outside of the usual limits may require derating
or other special equipment, such as heating, cooling or ventilation. Contact Toshiba for
further information.
If the location for installation is damp, space heaters may be required. If space heaters
are furnished inside the controller, they should be connected in accordance with the wir-
ing diagram furnished.
Do not install this equipment in areas where unusual service

WARNING
conditions exist, unless the equipment has been specially
designed for the particular environment.
Installation Site Preparation

It is recommended that site preparation be completed before the controller is unpacked,
so that possible problems such as headroom, conduit location, cable tray locations, ven-
tilation, etc. can be solved, assuring a proper installation in compliance with the building
plans and codes. The floor on which the controller will be placed must be level so that the
enclosure is not distorted when bolted in place. Ensure the equipment adequately clears
any underground raceways or cables.
JKSSS+ Series - 14

2.4 - Dimensions
Note: Dimensions are for reference only and subject to change.

Contact factory for exact dimensions.
2.5 - Mounting
Each shipping section must be leveled and firmly secured to its supporting
foundation. Steel shims may be used for final leveling (Fig. 3), if necessary.
When three or more shipping sections are to be arranged in one continuous
line-up, the center shipping section should normally be the first located.
Follow the equipment outline drawings to determine the location of the

mounting bolt holes and any conduit locations.
Sill channels may or may not be furnished, depending on order specifica-

tions. Refer to outline drawings furnished for location
of sill channels, if furnished.
Various methods may be used to anchor the enclosure to the foundation,

including expandable inserts or “J” bolts embedded
in concrete. The recommended size for anchor bolts is 1/2" (Fig. 4). Fig. 3 Leveling Using Shims
Heavy Equipment. Enclosure must be securely

anchored to prevent tipping over.
2.6 - Additional Cabinet Entries

If conduit entry locations are required in areas other than the
removable plates, cover the electrical assemblies to prevent
metal filings from becoming lodged in areas which may cause
a reduction in the high voltage clearances or a short circuit.
After the work is completed, thoroughly clean the area and
reinspect the unit for foreign material.
2.7 - Pre-energization Check

AFTER INSTALLATION, BUT BEFORE ENERGIZING THE CONTROLLER
for the first time, follow the procedure below to
verify that the equipment is properly installed and functional. Fig. 4 Securely Anchor the Controller
JKSSS+ Series - 15

There is a rating data label on the inside of each medium voltage compartment door.
Verify that the controller ratings properly match the system data by checking the follow-
ing:
1. Verify agreement of full load current, locked rotor current and acceleration time
with motor nameplate.
2. Verify that system voltage, number of phases and frequency matches controller
rating.
3. Verify that available short circuit current of power system is less than rated
short circuit capacity of controller.

Check connections - Although the equipment and devices have been completely tested
at the factory, a final field check should be made that all electrical wiring and bus bar
connections are correct and have not become loose in transportation. Refer to MAINTE-
NANCE Section for electrical joint specification.
All blocks or other temporary braces used for shipment must be removed.
Before closing the enclosure, all metal chips, scrap wire and other debris left over from
installation must be cleaned out.
If there is an appreciable accumulation of dust or dirt, the enclosure should be cleaned

by using a brush, vacuum cleaner or clean, lint free brush.
The integrity of all bus bar supports must be checked for secureness and damage.
Care should be exercised that when covers are installed and doors closed, no wires are
pinched and that all enclosure parts are properly aligned and tightened.
A supply of spare parts, fuses, etc. should be established.
Instruction manuals and diagrams should be collected and filed.
WIRING CHECK
Field wiring should be checked for clearance to live busses where necessary, physically
secured to withstand the effects of fault current.
All grounding connections should be checked.
Each motor should be connected to its intended controller, and phase rotation should be
correct prior to startup.
Changes made to circuit diagrams during installation should be recorded.
DEVICE/MECHANISM CHECKS
All devices should be checked for damage. All necessary repairs or replacements should
be made.
Do not energize damaged equipment that has not been repaired

WARNING and verified.
JKSSS+ Series - 16

Ensure that safety signs are not covered or obscured by paint.
WARNING
Do not remove, cover or destroy any safety signs.
The setting of any adjustable current and voltage trip mechanisms should be verified to
the proper values.
NOTE: Damage from faults can be reduced if devices used for short circuit and ground
fault protection are chosen and set to operate at values as close to minimum as feasible,
while allowing normal transients.
All switches, relays and other operating mechanisms should be manually exercised to
make certain that they are properly aligned and operate freely.
Operating mechanisms such as interlocks, key switches, etc. should be checked for func-
tion as intended for protection of personnel and equipment.
Overload relay settings should be checked to be sure they are selected and adjusted to
the proper settings per the load nameplate data.
Power circuit fuses were selected and installed in accordance with the application re-
quirements. Fuses must be completely inserted in their holders. Instruction on removing
and installing the fuses can be found in one of the following manuals: VF010H03 (Fixed
Type) or VF010H01 (Drawout Type).
Electrical Checks
With incoming power isolated and all loads disconnected electrically, the control cir-
cuit and other mechanisms should be exercised to determine that the devices operate
properly. An auxiliary source of control power will be necessary to provide power to the
electrical operators.
Electrical shock hazard. Do not touch energized components

WARNING
during a test using auxiliary power.
The ground fault protection system (if furnished) should be tested in accordance with the
instructions furnished with the device.
An electrical insulation test should be performed to ensure that the controller and asso-
ciated field wiring are free from short circuits and grounds. The preferred method is to
perform a dielectric test at 2.25 times the nominal system voltage plus 2000 volts. This
should be done phase-to-ground, phase-to-phase and phase-to-neutral (if applicable),
with all switches and circuit breakers opened. Disconnect any devices which may have
limited dielectric strength and that are not intended for this test.
The light or buzzer, or both, used to indicate breakdown should be calibrated to indicate
failure with an output current between 1.5 and 2.0 milliamperes per 1000 volts applied.
Hazardous voltages are present during dielectric testing

WARNING
which can result in serious injury or death. High potential
tests should be performed only by qualified personnel.
Refer to safety instructions provided with the test equipment.
All devices must be set to their normal or OFF position before energizing incoming power.

2.9.1 - Incoming Line

On the Standard JKSSS, incoming power cable connections should be made at the
points shown on the wiring diagram furnished with the equipment.
Note: Proper phase sequence must be observed when connecting the input power.
For example, phase A must lead phase B, which in turn must lead phase C by 120°
respectively. If the phase rotation is not correct, a fault light and the LCD display will
indicate the problem. The SCR output will be clamped.
2.9.2- Load Connections

The load cables should be routed through the wireways furnished within the enclosure.
Load cable termination arrangements, refer to the drawings furnished with the equip-
ment.
2.9.3- Ground Connections

The controller line-up must be grounded in accordance with the requirements of the Na-
tional Electrical Code. Proper equipment grounding must be established before making
any incoming power connection. If a main ground bus is furnished, make the ground con-
nection to this bus. If there is no ground bus, the sections which are shipped separately
should be connected in such a way as to ensure a continuous grounding path.
Each section contains a vertical ground bus extending from the main ground bus or ground
pad to each controller compartment.
Special attention should be paid to protection for operating personnel, to protection of

equipment itself, (i.e. such as ground fault relays, if used) and protection of sensitive
transducers or control devices that are electronic in nature.
The following may be used as a general guide with regard to equipment grounding.
Controller used as service equipment for a grounded system or as a main section for a
seperately derived system:
a. The grounding electrode conductor (ground wire) sized in accordance with NEC 250
should be run from the grounding electrode to the controller ground bus or ground
terminal.
b. Unless already done at the factory, a main bonding jumper should be installed from
the incoming grounded connector bus (neutral) to the ground bus or designated
grounding point. If a jumper is not furnished, one having a size in accordance with
NEC 250 should be selected.
c. Steps (a) and (b) should effectively connect together the grounding electrode, the
controller frame, all outgoing equipment grounding conductors and the grounded
neutral bus of the system.
d. No connection should be made to ground on the load side of any neutral disconnecting
line or any sensor used for ground fault protection. No connections should be made
between outgoing grounding connectors and the neutral.
e. Where the controller or system is dual-fed (double-ended) and has ground fault
protection, special precautions are necessary to accomplish proper grounding and
bonding.
JKSSS+ Series - 20

Controller used as service equipment for an ungrounded system or as a main section for a separately derived
system.
a. A grounding electrode conductor (ground wire) sized in accordance with NEC 250 should be run from the
grounding electrode to the controller ground bus or ground terminal.
b. If the system is grounded at any point ahead of the controller, the grounded conductor should be run to the
controller in accordance with NEC 250 and connected to the ground bus or ground terminal.
c. Steps (a) and (b) should effectively connect together the grounding electrode, the controller frame, all outgoing
equipment grounding connectors and any grounded conductor which runs to the controller.
Controller not used as service equipment or as a main section for a separately derived system, and used on either
a grounded or ungrounded system:
a. The controller frame and any ground bus should be grounded by means of equipment grounding conductors
having a size in accordance with NEC 250 and run with the main supply conductors or by bonding to the
raceway enclosing the main supply conductors in accordance with NEC 250.

b. Ground leads should be connected to cable potheads/shields as specified by the manufacturer of these de-
vices.

Chapter 3 - Start-up
The JKSSS+ unit deals with potentially lethal voltage
WARNING
levels. You must be certain that personnel are
thoroughly trained in the applicable safety
precautions before proceeding with this section!
3.1 Preliminary Start-Up Check List

Please make the following checks before applying power to the unit:
• Qualified personnel have hi-potted the line and load wiring before connecting to the soft
start. (Typically 1.5 x Rated Voltage)
• Verify that all wiring is completed and all connections are tightened.
• Check the motor nameplate and confirm the unit is programmed with the correct motor
FLA.
Note: It is necessary to connect the line power to L1, L2 and L3, or the “Phase
Rotation Protection” will be activated.
• Verify control logic via 120V test switcher (available on standard JKSSS+ NEMA Class
E2 Starters only). A separate 120Vac test receptacle can be supplied to the control logic
without powering up the medium voltage section for control logic testing. It also allows
isolation of the 120Vac from back-feeding the control power transformer.
• Connect control supply (Optional “Soft Start Only” Package only). The “On” and “Stop”
LEDs will light up.
• Review all parameters and readjust as required. See Chapter 5 - Programming for de-
tailed instructions. Try factory settings first.
• Verify that the interlocks for the system are installed and working properly.
• Verify that the feed transformer is correctly sized for the motor(s).
• Check for any loose mechanical parts or metal debris in the enclosure.
• Check the motor strapping and connections.
• Verify that the unit is properly grounded.
• Remove tie straps from Blown Fuse Indicator.
• Connect line voltage to line terminals.
3.2 Introduction
It is best to operate the motor at its full load starting condition to achieve the proper time,
torque and ramp settings. Initial settings are set to accommodate most motor conditions.
TRY INITIAL SETTINGS FIRST. See Setpoint 5.1.2 Starter Confiuration (Setpoint Page
2) to make any adjustments.
3.3 Acceleration Adjustments

The unit is set at the factory with typical starting characteristics that perform well in most
applications. When the system is ready to start, try the initial unit settings. If the motor
does not come up to speed, increase the current limit setting. If the motor does not start
to turn as soon as desired, raise the starting voltage adjustment. Adjustment description
and procedures are described as follows. See Setpoint 5.1.2 Starter Configuration (Set-
point Page 2) for additional Accel settings.
3.3.1 Starting Voltage

Factory Setting = 20% of line voltage
Range = 0% - 100% of line voltage
Starting voltage adjustment changes the initial starting voltage level to the motor.
3.3.2 Ramp Time

Factory Setting = 10 sec.
Range = 0 - 120 sec.
Ramp time adjustment changes the amount of time it takes to reach the current limit
point or full voltage if the current limit point was not reached.
Note: Refer to your motor manual for the maximum number of starts per hour allowed by
the manufacturer and do not exceed the recommended number.
JKSSS+ Series - 29

3.3.3 Current Limit

Factory Setting = 350% of unit FLA
Range = 200% - 500% of unit FLA
The current limit adjustment is factory set for 350% of the unit’s rating.
The range of adjustment is 200% to 500%. The main function of cur-
rent limit is to cap the peak current. It may also be used to extend the
ramping time if required. The interaction between the voltage ramp
and the current limit will allow the soft start to ramp the motor until the
maximum current is reached and the current limit will hold the current
at that level. The current limit must be set high enough to allow the
motor to reach full speed. The factory setting of 350% is a good start-
ing point. Do not set the current limit too low on variable starting
loads. This could cause the motor to stall and eventually cause
the overload protection to trip.
Note: If the motor does stall, refer to the motor manufacturer’s motor data
for the proper cooling time.
3.4 Deceleration Adjustments (Pump Control)

Decel extends the stopping time on loads that would otherwise stop too
quickly if allowed to coast to stop. Decel control provides smooth deceler-
ation until the load comes to a stop. Three adjustments optimize the deceleration
curve to meet the most demanding requirements. The unit is shipped from the
factory with the decel feature disabled.

Deceleration Applications
The unit is shipped from the factory with the decel feature disabled.
Apply power and adjust the soft start before enabling or modifying the
deceleration adjustments. Both acceleration and deceleration adjust-
ments should be made under normal load conditions.
The deceleration feature provides a slow decrease in the output voltage,

accomplishing a gentle decrease in motor torque during the stopping
mode. This is the OPPOSITE OF BRAKING in that it will take longer to
come to a stop than if the starter were just turned off. The primary use
of this function is to reduce the sudden changes in pressure that are
associated with “Water Hammer” and slamming of check valves with
centrifugal pumps. Decel control in pump applications is often referred to
as Pump Control.
In a pump system, liquid is being pushed uphill. The force exerted by

gravity on the column of liquid as it goes up hill is called the “Head
Pressure” in the system. The pump is sized to provide enough Output
Pressure to overcome the Head Pressure and move the fluid up the
pipe. When the pump is turned off, the Output Pressure rapidly drops
to zero and the Head Pressure takes over to send the fluid back down
the hill. A “Check Valve” is used somewhere in the system to prevent
this (if necessary) by only allowing the liquid to flow in one direction. The
kinetic energy in that moving fluid is suddenly trapped when the valve
slams closed. Since fluids can’t compress, that energy is transformed
into a “Shock Wave” that travels through the piping system looking for
an outlet in which it dissipates. The sound of that shock wave is referred
to as “Water Hammer”. The energy in that shock wave can be extremely
damaging to pipes, fittings, flanges, seals and mounting systems.
By using the Soft Stop/Deceleration feature of the soft starter, the pump
output torque is gradually and gently reduced, which slowly reduces the
pressure in the pipe. When the Output Pressure is just slightly lower than
the Head Pressure, the flow slowly reverses and closes the Check Valve.
By this time there is very little energy left in the moving fluid and the
JKSSS+ Series - 30

Shock Wave is avoided. When the output voltage to the motor is low enough to no longer
be needed, the soft starter will end the Decel cycle and turn itself off.
Another common application for decel control is on material handling conveyors as a
means to prevent sudden stops that may cause products to fall over or to bump into one
another. In overhead crane applications, soft stopping of the Bridge or Trolley can prevent
loads from beginning to over swing on sudden stops.
3.4.1 Start Deceleration Voltage

The step down voltage adjustment eliminates the dead band in the deceleration mode
that is experienced while the voltage drops to a level where the motor deceleration is
responsive to decreased voltage. This feature allows for an instantaneous drop in volt-
age when deceleration is initiated.
3.4.2 Stop Deceleration Voltage

The stop voltage level setpoint is where the deceleration voltage drops to zero.
3.4.3 Deceleration Time

Factory Setting = 5 sec.
Range = 0 - 60 sec.
The deceleration ramp time adjusts the time it takes to reach the stop voltage level set
point. The unit should be restarted and stopped to verify that the desired deceleration
time has been achieved.
Do not exceed the motor manufacturer’s recommended

WARNING
number of starts per hour. When calculating the
number of starts per hour, a decel curve should be
counted as a start curve. For example: recommended
number of starts per hour = 6, allowable starts with
decel cycle per hour = 3.
3.5 Sequence of Normal Operation

• Apply control power and check that the “Power” LED comes on. (Display 1)
• Apply three phase power to the unit. The motor should run only when the
start command is applied.
• Apply the start command. (Display 2). The RUN LED will be lit. (Display 3)
The AUX3 LED will be lit. If the motor does not enter run mode in the
set time (Acceleration time limit, see SP8.2), a trip will occur.

3.6 Emergency Bypass Operation

•
! DANGER
HAZARDOUS OPERATION
Do not operate the Bypass Contactor with medium
voltage power applied to the unit.
Failure to follow this instruction will cause the motor

to start unexpectedly.
Remove input power (using line start section and lock out disconnect).
• Close the emergency bypass contact.
• Re-close the disconnect on line start panel.
• If integral overload protection is not to be used (see JP-1 Motor Protection
Jumper), then bimetallic or solid state overload protection is required
(customer supplied if factory emergency overload protection option has not
been included.)
In the emergency bypass mode, there is no

overload protection unless a separate
WARNING (optional or customer supplied) thermal or solid
state overload relay is installed, or JP-1 (Motor
Protection Jumper) is removed from the TCB Board.
The line start panel is operable as a normal across-the-line starter. When

power is applied, the bypass contactor is energized, tying the input terminals
directly to its output terminals. When the “ON/OFF” contact is closed, the
main contactor is energized and the motor line starts. When the “ON/OFF”
contact is opened, the motor is disconnected from the line via the main in-line
vacuum contactor.

SP.9 RTD Configuration (Setpoint Page 9)

(Security Level: 3)
The soft starter comes with an RTD card that provides 12

programmable RTDs which are individually programmable
for type. The available types are 100 ohm platinum, 100 ohm
nickel, 120 ohm nickel and 10 ohm copper. Each RTD can
be identified with a description name of up to 15 characters
(including spacing). Also, each individual RTD has it own alarm
and trip level.
SP9.1 Use NEMA Temp for RTD Value: When this setpoint
is enabled, the soft starter will use the NEMA design
insulation class to limit the maximum allowed range
of the alarm and trip level. The maximum allowed
temperature range is 240° C or (464°F).
SP9.2 # Of RTD’S Used for Stator: Up to six RTDs can be

assigned to monitor the stator of the motor.
SP9.3 RTD Voting: When this is enabled, the soft starter will not
post a trip until 2 RTD’s have exceeded the trip level.
This prevents nuisance RTD tripping.
SP9.4 All 12 RTDs are configured in the following manner. The

first column is the RTD type, the second column is the
RTD description, the third column is the alarm level,
and the fourth column is the trip level.
The first six RTDs have been pre-programmed with
a description name for the STATOR, with two RTDs
per phase. RTDs #1 & #2 have been named STATOR
PHASE A1 and A2 respectively. RTDs #3 & 4 are
named STATOR PHASE B1 and B2, RTDs #5 & 6
are named STATOR PHASE C1 and C2. If other
description names are required, press the right arrow
button from the RTD Type screen to go the RTD
description screen. If no alarm or trip level is required
these setpoints can be turned off.

Chapter 7 - Maintenance and Troubleshooting
The soft starter is designed to be a maintenance-free product. However, as with all electronic equipment, the
unit should be checked periodically for dirt, moisture or industrial contaminants. These can cause high voltage
arc-over, carbon tracking or prevent proper cooling of the SCR heat sinks. All bolts should be checked annu-
ally for proper tightness using an accurate torque wrench. According to the manufacturer’s manual, check the
contactor for air gap spacing of the vacuum bottles.
Note: If the unit is installed in a contaminated environment and forced air cooling is used, blower
filters must be checked and cleaned regularly to insure proper air flow and cooling of the enclosure.
7.1 - Failure Analysis

When a fault occurs, the LCD will display the fault error and the listed LED and AUX Relay will be lit.
Please clear all faults before attempting to restart the unit. Note: If the problem persists after the
required programming changes have been made, and all corrective action has been taken, please
contact the factory for assistance.

7.7 - Instructions for Stack Replacement
DANGER
HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE
Disconnect all power supplying this equipment prior
to working on it.
Failure to follow this instruction will result in death

or serious injury.
Note: All power sources must be removed and a waiting period of at

least 15 minutes must be observed before initiating any repairs to
the unit(s) because DC voltage may still be present immediately after
turning off power to the unit.
Note: It is good practice to disassemble and reassemble one stack at a
time so you can have an assembled and wired stack in the unit as a
reference.
Note: Toshiba recommends that the order include the SCR with the heat-
sink assembly at a minimum. Only an experienced technician should
attempt to replace the SCRs.
Tools:
• Phillips screwdriver
• 3/8” 12 point socket set
• 2 9/16” wrenches
• ½” wrench
• AC/DC Multimeter
• JKSSS+ manual (refer to drawings in this section)
Procedure:
1. Verify that no DC or AC voltage is present on any of the power compo-
nents.
2. Disconnect all four wires connected to TB1 positions 1-3 on the tempera-
ture CT board.
3. Disconnect the 4 red transformer wires on each of the gate drive boards.
These would be TB1, positions 3 and 5 for each gate drive board. Typically,
the 2300V unit will have only 4 wires per phase to disconnect, a 4160V unit
will have 8 wires per phase, and a 6000 - 7200V unit will have 12 wires per
phase. (Note: the 7200V/600A unit will also have 24 wires.)
4. Use the 9/16 wrench and carefully unbolt all of the line and load power con-
nections attached to the heat sinks. Note: If the unit is a 6000 - 7200V, re-
move the power strap connecting one side of the stack to the stack directly
below it.
5. Before removing the fiber optic wiring, make a note of the label on the
fiber cable to ensure they are placed exactly in the same socket they were
removed from. Now remove all fiber optic connectors on the stack. Gently
push on the connector tab and pull with a gentle left-to-right motion on the
connector in the direction away from the fiber optic device. Two connectors
will be found per gate drive board and one duplex connector will be found
on the small Temp/CT board on top. Caution: Do not touch the tip of the
connectors or contaminate the connection sockets with any dust or foreign
material.
6. Remove the wires from the Temp/CT board terminal block (3 screws).
7. Use a 9/16” socket with a 6” extension to remove the lower bolt that
routes through the front face of the heat sink and into the isolation standoff
mounted to the white panel. Then carefully hold the heat sink in place with
one hand and remove the top bolt from the heat sink.
8. Ensure the fiber optic connectors and all wires are positioned out of the
way, and then the heat sink can be gently removed from the unit.
JKSSS+ Series - 91

SCR Replacement:
FAILURE TO PERFORM THIS PROCEDURE

CORRECTLY WILL DAMAGE THE SCR AND
WILL NOT BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.
1. Remove white jumper wires on the gate drive board and make a note
of their placement.
2. Remove both 7/16 bolts and the singular 10 - 32 screw at the top of
gate drive board and lift off the board.
3. To remove the MOV board, remove the SCR gate/cathode leads (thin
red and white wires) and the white jumper wires attached to them.
Make a note as to how they were connected. Unbolt the ½” fasteners
as well.
4. At this point, all boards should now be removed from the aluminum
heat sink assembly.
5. Make a note (or drawing) of how each of the SCRs are oriented within
the heat sink. If factory supplied replacement SCRs and heatsinks are
used, the following steps are not required.
6. Loosen and carefully remove the ½” feed-through bolt and two black
springs that hold the assembly together and turn it on its side.
7. Remove the two (2) SCRs in the top layer, making certain to note that
the SCRs are not facing the same direction.
8. Remove the two (2) SCRs in the bottom layer, also making certain to
note that the SCRs are not facing the same direction.
9. Clean the heat sink surface area thoroughly and reapply some thermal
heat sink grease sparingly to the SCRs mating surfaces.
10. Please note that replacement SCRs are in matched sets of four and as
such, please try to keep the matched sets within the same phase.
11. Now, take any two SCRs from a set and place them on the heat sink in
the same direction as the old SCRs were, ensuring that the dimple in
the center of the SCR is properly placed onto the center pin of the heat
sink assembly. Place the next level of heat sink bar on the mounted
SCRs. Note: There is a difference in the heat sink bars. The center bar
has more holes drilled in it for mounting the circuit boards on it.
12. Now replace the other two (2) SCRs by repeating steps 10 and 11.
13. Next, carefully sandwich the SCRs and turn the stack over so the heat
sink bars are vertical and run the center bolt through the springs and
hand tighten the nut on the center bolt assembly.
14. Then make approximately 3 and ½ full revolutions on the nut to create
the appropriate amount of compression force. You can tell if there is
enough compression force applied to the heat sink by the fact that the
force needed to turn the nut will suddenly increase.
15. Finally, reinstall all boards in the same manner in which they were
removed.
16 Refer to drawing PCB for disassembling and reassembling the stack
assembly.
JKSSS+ Series - 92

Reinstallation:
1. Hold the rebuilt or new stack assembly in the vertical position with
the Temp/CT board on top (only the top stack assembly will have this
board in a multi-stack phase) and place the stack on the positioning
studs that protrude from the isolation standoffs.
2. While pressing on the stack to hold it on the positioning studs, place
the feed-through bolt through the heat sink and finger-tighten the top
bolt. Then repeat the process with the bottom feed-through bolt to
ensure the stack is held against the isolation standoffs.
3. After verifying no wires or fibers have been pinched between the stack
assembly and isolation standoffs, tighten the top bolt completely, then
repeat the process for the bottom bolt. Now the stack assembly should
be held firmly in place.
4. Using the 9/16” wrench reinstall the line and load power cables and
tighten.
5. If needed, refer to the appropriate drawing to reconnect red transformer
wires on each gate drive board. As an example, for the 4160V stack,
reattach TB4-1 to X3, TB4-3 to X4, TB1-3 to X2 and TB1-1 to X1. Verify
all X(#) wires are reconnected to their original position on the gate drive
boards. Otherwise the SCRs will misfire.
6. Reconnect thermostat wires on TB1 positions 2 and 3 of the Temp/CT
board.
7. Reconnect the main CT black wire to TB1-1. Then feed the white wire
through the board mounted CT and connect to TB1-1 on the Temp/
CT board. Please note that one each of the thick white wires from the
encapsulated CT must be connected with the Main CTs wiring.
8. Ensure the same fiber optic routing is used as before. If the fiber optic
wiring is positioned close to a heat source, (such as the 25-watt resis-
tors on the gate drive board) melting or distortion of the plastic fiber
may occur. Minimum distance is a ½ inch with a minimum bend radius
of 2 inches. All gate drive boards require 2 single connectors per board
and the Temp/CT connector is a duplex piece with a mating tab that
faces away from the stack. If the tab is broken off, refer to an adjacent
stack’s labels to see how the labels should be positioned when install-
ing a duplex connector with a broken tab. Again, caution should be
taken not to touch the fiber connector end or force it in with the tab
facing down.

that is required. Also, connect the Primaries of the TEST PT in the
proper phase sequence of A-B-C.
5. Disconnect medium voltage motor.
6. Connect low voltage motor. (Typically 5 HP or less)
7. Connect a wire jumper between TB8 pins 1 and 2 on the TCB (con-
trol board) to bypass fuse blown and open disconnect fault. The
TCB is located in the low voltage compartment.
8. Install a switch on TB1 pins 1 and 8 on the TCB (control board) to
bypass all interlocks (TEST Switch).
JKSSS+ Series - 94

9. Verify or wire a 120Vac plug to the TEST plug supplied by the factory.
10. Remove all both power fuses on the medium voltage CPT (single
phase control power transformer), if present..
11. Remove 3 fuses from the medium voltage potential transformer (PT).
12. Verify the 120-volt test switch is in the “NORMAL” position.
13. Connect test power to test plug connector and place the 120-volt test
switch to the “TEST” position.
14. The keypad should be energized with the “Power LED,” Stop LED.
15. Close the temporary Start switch, which is connected to the control
board.
16. The Main Vacuum contactor should close and the keypad should
trip on “Under Voltage” Open temporary TEST switch and reset CPU
fault.
17. Connect the Secondary of the TEST PT to Panel TB1 positions 1 -
phase A, position 3- phase B, and position 5 - phase C on the main
firing board (JKSSS+-MB). It is physically located behind the low
voltage compartment door. (Screw terminal block)
18. Verify all connections are good and then energize the low voltage of
either 480 or 240 volt, three phases.
19. Use the multimeter on the AC scale and verify 3 phase 120Vac
(phase to phase) at TB1 pins 1, 3 and 5 of the main firing board.
20. If all 120Vac 3 phase is present then de-energize low voltage of 480
or 240Vac.
21. Re-energize the low voltage of 480 or 240Vac.
22. Now all test voltages should be present 480 or 240Vac and three
phase 120Vac (TEST PT) and 120Vac single phase for control
power.
23. Close the temporary Start switch and the test motor should spin up
smoothly.
24. Use the Multimeter on the AC scale and check (phase to phase)
voltages on T1, T2 and T3 motor leads. The voltages should be bal-
anced.
25. If the motor doesn’t spin up smoothly the soft starter is malfunction-
ing. Proceed to step 27 for troubleshooting.
26. If the motor starts and runs smoothly then repeat this procedure in
reverse to remove all test connect and reinstall all fuses.
Low Voltage Troubleshooting:

Tools: Ungrounded Oscilloscope
27. Open test switch and stop motor.
28. Change Setpoint Page 5 AUX4 is set at non-fail safe. Change it to fail
safe.
29. Observe bypass contactor closes immediately.
30. Place the Oscilloscope on the 2msec time scale and 1 Volt per
division.
31. Connect the Oscilloscope probe to the Gate and Cathode of the
SCRs.
JKSSS+ Series - 95

32. The gate and cathode leads are the white wires on the gate drive
board in the medium voltage cabinet. See drawing below.
33. If waveform is inverted, swap Oscilloscope connections for proper
polarity. Close the temporary Start switch and allow the test motor to
reach full speed.
34. Then verify all gating signals to each SCR (two gating signals on
every gate drive board). See drawing below for correct waveform.
35. Once the bad signal(s) are found; write down the location and call
the factory for further guidance.
Waveform is
the gating signal as
measured with an
ungrounded oscilloscope
at the gate to cathode
of the SCR. The
waveform should be 1.7
to 2msec off time and
approximately 1.5 to
3 Vdc. This signal is only
present at full conduction
or the motor is at speed.
Each SCR gating signal
should be checked
in accordance with the
low voltage test procedure.

7.9 - Maintenance Program/Servicing Equipment/Disposal/Storage
MAINTENANCE PROGRAM
In order to ensure continued reliable and safe operation of the equipment, a

program of periodic maintenance must be established. Operating and environmental
conditions will usually dictate the frequency of inspection required. NFPA Publication
70B “Electrical Equipment Maintenance” may be used as a guide for setting up the
maintenance program.
Contact with energized components can cause severe injury, death and
property damage. Turn off and lock-out primary and control circuit power
