E-stop contactor not energizing

[john543]

Right now I have 220 single phase going into L1 L2
T1 &T2 power the power supply. L3 goes to common T3 goes to common side of relay6
NO contact goes to my C86ACCP.
A1 goes to common A2 goes to my estop
From estop to NO side of relay6

Man I hate my phone

[ShawnM]

Whoa, wait, stop.

Again, what are you trying to do?

I understand L1, L2, T1 and T2. That'll turn on the motor power supply when the contactor latches.

What are you doing with L3 and T3?

What is MP?

A1 and A2 DO NOT go to your VFD. That's the coil to latch the contactor. You need 220 volts on A1 and A2 to latch the contactor.

Please tell me what diagram you are following and what you are trying to accomplish with the contactor?

MP is fat fingering my stupid phone

[john543]

What I'm trying to accomplish is when I hit estop it kills the spindle and the feed motors

[john543]

T3L3 is breaks connection to relay 6

[john543]

I'm saying it all wrong I'll have to pull the covers off estop is relay 1 not 6 tired not thinking straight

[ShawnM]

L3 and T3 break the COM from the VFD to stop the spin forward or spin reverse, got it.

I have no idea how to wire the C86.

A1 needs to to to one leg of your 220VAC power and A2 needs to go to the other leg of your 220VAC power but run that leg through the COM and NO contacts of relay 1. When you power up everything and then click the reset button that closes relay 1 (no fault out) and in turn supplies the second leg of the 220VAC to the contactor and it latches and the power supply will come on and it will connect the COM terminal on your VFD to the common side of your FWD and REV relays.

Please review drawing S14953, it's all there.

Hey Shawn

This is a crude dwg of what I wired as best as I could get out of Marty's video using a 24vdc contactor.
I don't show the power supply's because I can't draw well enough to make sense of it myself.

I used the Acorn drawing to wire everything except this contactor as I said before Marty's SYIL
Build he explained how to wire this contactor so the X Y Z travel and Spindle would stop if the spindle would
fault or the clearpaths would fault or a E-stop everything would stop in all cases.

When I get tired I start mixing things up and when that happen power off lights out I stop making any sense sorry for me confusing you.

[ShawnM]

Thanks for the drawing but it doesn't make a lot of sense because not much is labeled. First, I'm not sure why you opted to buy a 240 VAC contactor when you wanted a 24 VDC contactor. This only complicates thing for you. What are the contacts on your estop? The way you have it drawn you'll need a NC contact to run the 24vdc through it for the contactor coil. You should also have a NC contact for the e-stop circuit on the Acorn.

I hate to pass the buck here but if Marty created this schematic you are following maybe he'll share it with you. I see some things on your drawing that don't make sense to me or why it's wired that way. I would have done things differently.

You'll either have to buy a 24 VDC contactor or rewire the contactor wiring on your diagram to allow for the now 240VAC contacts on the contactor you have.
