WARNING: HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE

  • AC drives contain hazardous voltage when connected to the AC mains or connected on the DC terminals. Failure to perform installation, start-up, and maintenance by qualified personnel can result in death or serious injury.
  • Only qualified personnel must perform installation, start-up, and maintenance.

WARNING: DISCHARGE TIME

  • The drive contains DC-link capacitors, which can remain charged even when the drive is not powered. High voltage can be present even when the warning indicator lights are off. Failure to wait the specified time after power has been removed before performing service or repair work can result in death or serious injury.
  • Stop the motor.
  • Disconnect all power sources, including permanent magnet type motors.
  • Wait for capacitors to discharge fully. The discharge time is shown on the nameplate. See Illustration 1.
  • Verify full discharge by measuring the voltage level.

WARNING: UNINTENDED START

  • When the drive is connected to the AC mains or connected on the DC terminals, the motor may start at any time, causing risk of death, serious injury, and equipment or property damage.
  • Stop the drive and motor before configuring parameters.
  • Make sure that the drive cannot be started by external switch, a fieldbus command, an input reference signal from the control panel, or after a cleared fault condition.
  • Disconnect the drive from the mains whenever safety considerations make it necessary to avoid unintended motor start.
  • Check that the drive, motor, and any driven equipment are in operational readiness.

CAUTION: INTERNAL FAILURE HAZARD

  • An internal failure in the drive can result in serious injury when the drive is not properly closed.
  • Ensure that all safety covers are in place and securely fastened before applying power.

WARNING: ELECTRICAL SHOCK AND FIRE HAZARD

  • The drive can cause a DC current in the ground conductor. Failure to use a Type B residual current-operated protective device (RCD) can lead to the RCD not providing the intended protection which can result in death, fire, or other serious hazard.
  • Use an RCD device.
  • When an RCD is used for protection against electrical shock or fire, use only a Type B device on the supply side.

WARNING: INDUCED VOLTAGE

  • Induced voltage from output motor cables that run together can charge equipment capacitors, even with the equipment turned off and locked out/tagged out. Failure to run output motor cables separately, or to use shielded cables, could result in death or serious injury.
  • Run output motor cables separately or use shielded cables.
  • Simultaneously lock out/tag out all the drives.

WARNING: ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD

  • Due to the stray capacitance of the shielded motor cable, the leakage currents exceed 3.5 mA. Failure to properly ground the drive can result in death or serious injury.
  • Ensure that minimum size of the ground conductor complies with the local safety regulations for high touch current equipment.
  • Use a reinforced ground conductor according to IEC 60364-5-54 cl. 543.7 or local safety regulations for equipment with leakage current >3.5 mA.

For reinforced grounding

Use a ground conductor with a cross-section of at least 10 mm2 (8 AWG) Cu or 16 mm2 (6 AWG) Al, or an extra ground conductor of the same cross-sectional area as the original ground conductor as specified by IEC 60364-5-54, with a minimum cross-sectional area of 2.5 mm2 (14 AWG) mechanically protected or 4 mm2 (12 AWG) not mechanically protected. Use a ground conductor inside an enclosure or otherwise protected throughout its length against mechanical damage. Use a ground conductor that is part of a multi-conductor power cable with a minimum PE conductor cross-section of 2.5 mm2 (14 AWG) that is permanently connected or plugged in by an industrial connector. The multi- conductor power cable must be installed with an appropriate strain relief.

CAUTION: THERMISTOR INSULATION

  • Risk of personal injury or equipment damage.
  • To meet PELV insulation requirements, use only thermistors with reinforced or double insulation.

NOTICE: EXCESSIVE HEAT AND PROPERTY DAMAGE

  • Overcurrent can generate excessive heat within the drive. Failure to provide overcurrent protection can result in risk of fire and property damage.
  • Use additional protective devices such as short-circuit protection or motor thermal protection between the drive and the motor for applications with multiple motors.
  • Input fusing is required to provide short circuit and overcurrent protection. If fuses are not factory-supplied, the installer must provide them.

NOTICE: PROPERTY DAMAGE

  • Protection against motor overload is not active by default. The ETR function provides class 20 motor overload protection. Failure to set the ETR function means that motor overload protection is not provided and property damage can occur if the motor overheats.
  • Enable the ETR function. See the application guide for more information.
Required Tools
  • Lifting aid
  • Tape measure
  • Drill with assorted bits
  • Screwdrivers (Torx, Phillips, slotted)
  • Wrench with 7–17 mm sockets
  • Socket extensions
  • Sheet metal punch and/or pliers
  • Wire crimper

Verifying the Shipment and the Contents

  • Make sure that the items supplied and the information on the nameplate match the order. The nameplate is on the exterior of the drive.

EMC-compliant Installation

  • For more information, refer to the product-specific operating guide.
  • Use shielded cables for motor (unshielded cables in metal conduit are acceptable), brake, DC, and control wiring.
  • Ensure that motor, brake, and DC cables are as short as possible to reduce the interference level from the entire system. Provide a minimum space of 200 mm (7.9 in) between mains input, motor cables, and control cables.
  • Convey the currents back to the drive using a metal mounting plate. Ensure good electrical contact from the mounting plate through the mounting screws to the metal frame of the enclosure.
  • If the shield connection points have a voltage potential difference, connect a low impedance equalizing wire parallel to the shielded cable.
  • When using relays, control cables, a signal interface, fieldbus, or brake, connect the shield to the enclosure at both ends. If the ground path has high impedance, is noisy, or is carrying current, break the shield connection on 1 end to avoid ground current loops.
