Electrical Connections
All electrical connections must
be done by a qualified electrician.
All adjustments or repairs must be done with the
dust collector disconnected from the power source,
unplugged. Failure to comply may result in serious
injury!
The DC-1200VX single phase dust collectors are rated
for 230V Only. The dust collector is not supplied with a
plug. Use a plug and outlet rated at least 20 amps. The
circuit for the machine should also be protected by at
least a 20 amp circuit breaker or fuse.
The DC-1200VX three phase dust collectors are rated
for 230V/460V, Prewired 230V. If you wish to run these
on 460 volt, refer to the wiring diagram found on the
inside of the switch box cover.
Keep in mind that a circuit being used by other
machines, tools, lights, heaters, etc. at the same time
will add to the electrical load. A dedicated circuit to the
dust collector will give you the best results since dust
collectors are generally used at the same time other
tools are running.
Turning the Machine On & Off
This machine is intended for
indoor use only.

powered by 230V only up to 3HP, 1 Phase. The DC-
RC230 Remote Power Control unit is rated at 230V,
Single Phase only. Use an outlet rated at least 20amps.
The circuit for the device being controlled by the DC-
RC230 should also be protected by at least a 20 amp
circuit breaker or fuse.
Before hooking up to the power source, make sure that
the switch is initially in the off position on both the dust
collector and remote control unit (Figure 13).
