• Only qualified personnel must perform installation, start-up, and maintenance.

WARNING

When the frequency converter is connected to AC mains, DC supply, or load sharing, the motor may start at any time. Unintended start during programming, service, or repair work can result in death, serious injury, or property damage. The motor can start with an external switch, a field bus command, an input reference signal from the LCP or LOP, via remote operation using MCT 10 Set-up Software, or after a clear UNINTENDED START default condition.

To prevent unintended motor start:

• Press [Off/Reset] on the LCP before programming parameters.
• Disconnect the frequency converter from the mains.
• Completely wire and assemble the frequency converter, motor, and any driven equipment before connecting
• the frequency converter to AC mains, DC supply, or load sharing.

WARNING
DISCHARGE TIME
The frequency converter contains DC-link capacitors, which can remain charged even when the frequency converter is not powered. High voltage can be present even when the warning LED 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 AC mains and remote DC-link supplies, including battery back-ups, UPS, and DC-link connections to other frequency converters.
•  Disconnect or lock PM motor.
• Wait for the capacitors to discharge fully. The minimum waiting time is specied in the chapter Safety in the operating instructions supplied with the frequency converter.
• Before performing any service or repair work, use an appropriate voltage measuring device to make sure that the capacitors are fully discharged.

WARNING
LEAKAGE CURRENT HAZARD
Leakage currents exceed 3.5 mA. Failure to ground the frequency converter properly can result in death or serious injury.

• Ensure the correct grounding of the equipment by a certified electrical installer.

WARNING

Contact with rotating shafts and electrical equipment can result in death or serious injury.

• Ensure that only trained and qualified personnel perform installation, start-up, and maintenance.
• Ensure that electrical work conforms to national and local electrical codes.
• Follow the procedures in this guide.

CAUTION
INTERNAL FAILURE HAZARD
An internal failure in the frequency converter can result in serious injury when the frequency converter is not properly closed.

• Ensure that all safety covers are in place and securely fastened before applying power.

Installation

Safety Instructions
See chapter 2 Safety for general safety instructions.

EMC-compliant Installation
To obtain an EMC-compliant installation, follow the instructions provided in the relevant frequency converter operating instructions and design guide. Refer to the BACnet/IP master manual from the BMS supplier for further installation guidelines.

Grounding

• Ensure that all stations connected to the €Elbrus network are connected to the same ground potential. When there are long distances between the stations in a €Elbrus network, connect the individual station to the same ground potential. Install equalising cables between the system components.
• Establish a grounding connection with low HF impedance, for example by mounting the frequency converter on a conductive backplate.
• Keep the ground wire connections as short as possible.
• Electrical contact between the cable screen and the frequency converter enclosure or ground is not allowed in Ethernet installations. The RJ45 connector of the Ethernet interface provides an electrical path for the burst transient to ground.
• To reduce burst transient, use high-strand wire.

Cable Routing

NOTICE
EMC INTERFERENCE
Use shielded cables for motor and control wiring, and separate cables for field bus communication, motor wiring, and brake resistor. Failure to isolate field bus communication, motor, and brake resistor cables can result in unintended behaviour or reduced performance. Minimum 200 mm (7.9 in) clearance between power, motor, and control cables is required. For power sizes above 315 kW (450 hp), increase the minimum distance to 500 mm (20 in).

NOTICE
When the eldbus cable crosses a motor cable or a brake resistor cable, ensure that the cables cross at an angle of 90°.

Illustration 3.1 Cable Routing

Topology

Topology Types
The BACnet/IP MCA 125 option features a built-in Ethernet switch with 2 Ethernet RJ45 connectors. Where the enclosure protection rating if higher than IP2x, the frequency converter may be equipped with two M12 connectors instead.
The module enables the connection of several BACnet/IP options in a line topology as an alternative to a traditional star topology.

The 2 ports are equal. If only 1 connector is used, either port can be used.

**Star Topology

Illustration 3.2 Star Topology
**

Line Topology
In many installations, line topology enables simpler cabling and the use of smaller or fewer Ethernet switches. The BACnet/IP interface supports line topology with its 2 ports and built-in Ethernet switch.

When line topology is used, take precautions to avoid timeout in the BMS when more than 8 frequency converters are installed in series. Each frequency converter in the network adds a small delay to the communication due to the built-in Ethernet switch. When the update time is too short, the delay can lead to a timeout in the BMS.

Set the update time as shown in Table 3.1. The numbers given are typical values and can vary from installation to installation.

Numbers of frequency converters connected in series| Minimum update time [ms]
---|---
<8| 2
8–16| 4
16–32| 8

32| Large jitter can occur.

Table 3.1 Minimum Update Time

Illustration 3.3 Line Topology

NOTICE
In line topology, activate the built-in switch by powering all frequency converters, either by mains or a 24 V DC option card.

NOTICE
Installing frequency converters of di‚erent power sizes in line topology may result in unwanted power-o‚ behavior when using control word timeout (parameter 8-02 Control Word Source to parameter 8-06 Reset Control Word Timeout). Mount the frequency converters with the longest discharge time rst in the line topology. In normal operation, the frequency converters with bigger power sizes have a longer discharge time.

Ring/Redundant Topology

Illustration 3.4 Ring/Redundant Topology

Ring topology can increase the availability of an Ethernet network.

For ring topology:

• Install a special switch (redundancy manager) between the BMS controller and the frequency converters.
• Configure the redundancy manager switch to clearly de€ne the ports that connect to the ring.

When the ring is closed, the main redundancy manager tests the ring for detects. If the redundancy manager  detects a fault in the ring, it recon€gures the ring into 2lines instead. The transition time from ring topology into 2  lines can vary from 200 ms up to several secondsdepending on the components installed in the ring. Set the timing of the BMS controller to ensure that the transition time does not lead to a timeout fault.

NOTICE
For ring/redundant topology, ensure that the redundancy manager switch supports the detection of loss of line topology. The switch inside the BACnet/IP interface does not support this detection, as the redundancy manager has to perform this task.

Recommended Design Rules

• Pay special attention to active network components when designing an Ethernet network.
• For line topology, a small delay is added with each additional switch in the line. For more information, see Table 3.1.
• Do not connect more than 32 frequency converters in series. To prevent unstable or faulty communication, set the timing, if this limit is exceeded.

No Communication with the Frequency Converter

Check: Link status
The status of the Ethernet link can be directly identi€ed using the LEDs, when no BACnet connection is established.
Use parameter 12-10 Link Status to verify presence of the link.
Use parameter 12-11 Link Duration to verify that the link is steadily present.
The parameter shows the duration of the present link, and is preset to 00:00:00:00 when the link is broken.

Check: Cabling
In rare cases of cabling reconfiguration, the option may show the presence of a link but no communication is running. Exchange the cable if in doubt.

Check: IP address
Verify that the option has a valid IP address (refer to parameter 12-01 IP Address). When the option has identified  a duplicate IP Address, NS LEDs are steady red. When the option is set up for BOOTP or DHCP, verify that a BOOTP or DHCP Server is connected in parameter 12-04 DHCP Server. If no server is connected, the parameter shows: 000.000.000.000.
