EV-100™MOTOR CONTROLLER DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION HYSTE PART NO. 897069 2200 SRM 287 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR ‘When lifting parts or assemblies, make sure that all slings, chains or cables are correctly fastened and that the load being lifted is balanced. Make sure that the crane, cables and chains have the capacity to support the weight of the load. Do not lift heavy parts by hand. Use a lifting mechanism. Wear safety glasses. DISCONNECT THE BATTERY CONNECTOR before doing any ‘maintenance or repair on electric lift tucks. Disconnect the battery ground cable on internal combustion lift tricks. Always use correct blocks to prevent the unit from rolling or falling, See “How To Put The Lift Truck On Blocks” in the OPERATING MANUAL or the PERIODIC MAINTENANCE section. Keep the unit and working area clean and in order. Use the correct tools for the job. Keep the tools clean and in good condition. Always use HYSTER APPROVED parts when making repairs. Replacement parts must meet or exceed the specifications of the original ‘equipment manufacturer. Make sure that all nuts, bolts, snap rings and other fastening devices are removed before using force to remove parts. Always fasten a DO NOT OPERATE sign to the controls of the unit when ‘making repairs or if the unit needs repairs. ‘Make sure you follow the DANGER, WARNING and CAUTION notes in ‘the instructions. Gasoline, Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG), and Diesel are flammable fuels. Make sure that you follow the necessary safety precautions when handling these fuels and when working on these fuel systems. Batteries generate flammable gas when they are being charged. Keep fire and sparks away from the area. Make sure the area has ventilation, EV-100 MOTOR CONTROLLER, DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION .......

The EV-100 motor con- troller, used 10 control the operation of electric lift trucks, is made for Hyster Company by the General Electric Company. The description of the current flow in the electrical cir- CONTROL CARD CAPACITOR C1 BASE PLATE SCR1 DIODE D3 MOTOR CURRENT SENSOR DIODE D4 cuits in this section uses the “Conventional Theory of Current Flow”. This theory describes the current as flowing from positive to negative. An electric lift truck uses a two-wire electrical system, There is no common ground through the frame. Both the positive supply and the negative return current flow through wires and ca~ bles. There must be a minimum resistance of 50 000 ohms between the electrical circuits and the frame of the lift truck, 8. REACTOR (INDUCTOR L1 AND 1X) ‘9. SCR2 AND SCR 5 (NOT SHOWN) 10.

TYPICAL CONFIGURATION OF THE EV-100 MOTOR CONTROLLER (TRACTION OR HYDRAULIC PUMP CONTROLLER GROUP) ‘The EV-100 motor controller controls the speed and di- rection of the traction motor. Some lift trucks have a sec- ond EV-100 motor controller to control the speed of the pump motor for the hydraulic lift circuit. Both control- lers are found on the same control panel and use the same principles of operation. The controller for the hy-
