Scalper Assist Motor Wiring and Speed Reference

The Scalper Assist is powered by a two horsepower motor. The motor is started and controlled by a custom parameter Variable Frequency Drive (VFD). The VFD that controls the Scalper Assist is tied into the output of the Feed Roll VFD. This prevents the Scalper Assist from starting when it shouldn’t and allows the Scalper Assist cleaning speed to proportionally increase as the Feed Roll Speed increases. This VFD also offers a feature that decreases the motor power as it sees a blockage to prevent breakage.
