Safety instructions

WARNING! Obey these instructions. If you ignore them, injury or death, or damage to the equipment can occur. If you are not a qualified electrical professional, do not do electrical installation or maintenance work.

  • Do not do work on the drive, motor cable, motor, or control cables when the drive is connected to the input power. Before you start the work, isolate the drive from all dangerous voltage sources and make sure that it is safe to start the work. Always wait for 5 minutes after disconnecting the input power to let the intermediate circuit capacitors discharge.
  • Do not do work on the drive when a rotating permanent magnet motor is connected to it. A rotating permanent magnet motor energizes the drive, including its input and output terminals.

Unpack the delivery

Keep the drive in its package until you are ready to install it. After unpacking, protect the drive from dust, debris, and moisture. Make sure that these items are included:

  • drive
  • assistant control panel
  • options, if ordered
  • RIIO-01 I/O & EIA-485 module. Note: If a Fieldbus adapter is ordered, it replaces the RIIO-01 module of the standard delivery.
  • mounting template (frames R3 and R4 only)
  • installation accessories (cable clamps, etc.)
  • multilingual warning sticker sheet (residual voltage warning)
  • safety instructions
  • quick installation and start-up guide

Make sure that there are no signs of damage to the items.

Reform the capacitors

If the drive has not been powered up for a year or more, you must reform the DC link capacitors. The manufacturing date is on the type designation label. Refer to Capacitor  reforming instructions (3BFE64059629 [English]).

Select the cables and fuses

  • Select the power cables. Obey the local regulations.
    • Input power cable: ABB recommends using asymmetrical shielded cable (VFD cable) for the best EMC performance.
    • Motor cable: Use symmetrical shielded cable (VFD cable) for the best EMC performance. The symmetrical shielded cable also reduces bearing currents, wear, and stress on motor insulation.
    • Power cable types: In IEC installations, use copper or aluminum cables (if permitted). In UL installations, use only copper cables.
    • Current rating: max. load current.
    • Voltage rating: min. 600 V AC.
    • Temperature rating: In IEC installations, select a cable rated for at least 70 °C (158 °F) maximum permissible temperature of the conductor in continuous use. In UL  installations, select a cable rated for at least 75 °C (167 °F).
    • Size: Refer to Fuses and typical power cable sizes for the typical cable sizes and to Terminal data for the power cables for the maximum cable sizes.

  • Select the control cables. Use double-shielded twisted-pair cable for analog signals. Use double-shielded or single-shielded cable for the digital, relay, and I/O signals. Do not run 24 V and 115/230 V signals in the same cable.

  • Protect the drive and input power cable with the correct fuses. Refer to Fuses and typical power cable sizes.

Examine the installation area

The drive is intended for cabinet installation and has a degree of protection of IP20 / UL open type.
Examine the site where you will install the driver. Make sure that:

  • The installation site is sufficiently ventilated and hot air does not recirculate.
  • There is sufficient free space around the drive for cooling, maintenance, and operation. For the minimum free space requirements, refer to Free space requirements.
  • The ambient conditions meet the requirements. Refer to Ambient conditions.
  • The installation surface is as close to vertical as possible and strong enough to support the weight of the drive. Refer to Dimensions and weights.
  • The installation surface, floor, and materials near the drive are not flammable.
  • There are no sources of strong magnetic fields, such as high-current single-core conductors or contactor coils near the drive. A strong magnetic field can cause interference in the operation of the drive.

Install the drive

You can install the drive with screws or to a DIN rail (top hat type, width × height= 35 mm × 7.5 mm [1.4 in × 0.3 in]).

  • Install R0 drives vertically. R0 drives do not have a cooling fan.
  • You can install drives with frame size R1…R4 tilted by a maximum of 90 degrees, from vertical to fully horizontal orientation.
  • Do not install the drive upside down.
  • You can install several drives side by side.

To install the drive with screws

  1. Make marks on the surface for the mounting holes. Refer to Dimensions and weights. Use the included mounting template for frames R3 and R4.
  2. Drill the holes for the mounting screws. If necessary, install suitable plugs or anchors into the holes.
  3. Install the mounting screws into the holes. Leave a gap between the screw head and the installation surface.
  4. Put the drive onto the mounting screws.
  5. Tighten the mounting screws.

To remove the drive, open the locking part and lift the drive from the DIN rail.ABB ACS480 Inverter Drive - figure 2

Measure the insulation resistance

Drive: Do not do voltage tolerance or insulation resistance tests on the drive, because this can cause damage to the drive.
Input power cable: Before you connect the input power cable, measure the insulation of the input power cable. Obey the local regulations.
Motor and motor cable:

  1. Make sure that the motor cable is connected to the motor and disconnected from the drive output terminals T1/U, T2/V and T3/W.
  2. Use a voltage of 1000 V DC to measure the insulation resistance between each phase conductor and the protective earth conductor. The insulation resistance of an ABB  motor must be more than 100 Mohm (at 25 °C [77 °F]). For the insulation resistance of other motors, refer to the manufacturer’s documentation. Moisture in the motor decreases the insulation resistance. If you think that there is moisture in the motor, dry the motor and do the measurement again.

  1. Disconnecting device
  2. Two protective earth (ground) conductors. Drive safety standard IEC/EN 61800-5-1 requires two PE conductors if the cross-sectional area of the PE conductor is less than 10 mm Al. For example, you can use the cable shield in addition to the fourth conductor. Cu or 16 mm
  3. Use a separate grounding cable or a cable with a separate PE conductor for the line side, if the conductivity of the fourth conductor or shield does not meet the requirements for the PE conductor.
  4. Use a separate grounding cable for the motor side, if the conductivity of the shield is not sufficient, or if there is no symmetrically constructed PE conductor in the cable.
  5. 360-degree grounding of the cable shield is required for the motor cable and brake resistor cable (if used). It is also recommended for the input power cable.
  6. Brake resistor and resistor cable (optional).

Connection procedure (shielded cables)
For the tightening torques, refer to Terminal data for the power cables.

  1. Loosen the screw on the front cover. Then lift the front cover-up.
  2. Attach the residual voltage warning sticker in the local language to the drive.

Safe torque off (STO)
The drive has a Safe torque off function (STO) in accordance with IEC/EN 61800-5-2. It can be used, for example, as the final actuator device of safety circuits that stop the drive in case of danger (such as an emergency stop circuit).
When activated, the STO function disables the control voltage of the power semiconductors of the drive output stage, thus preventing the drive from generating the torque required to rotate the motor. The control program generates an indication as defined by parameter 31.22. If the motor is running when Safe torque off is activated, it coasts to a  stop. Closing the activation switch deactivates the STO. Any faults generated must be reset before restarting.
The STO function has a redundant architecture, that is, both channels must be used in the safety function implementation. The safety data given is calculated for redundant use and does not apply if both channels are not used.

WARNING! The STO function does not disconnect the voltage from the main and auxiliary circuits of the drive.

Notes:

  • If stopping by coasting is not acceptable, stop the drive and machinery using the appropriate stop mode before activating the STO.
  • The STO function overrides all other functions of the drive.

Wiring
The safety contacts must open/close within 200 ms of each other.
A double-shielded twisted-pair cable is recommended for the connection. The maximum length of the cabling between the switch and the drive control unit is 300 m (1000 ft).  Ground the shield of the cable at the control unit only.

Validation
To ensure the safe operation of a safety function, a validation test is required.
The test must be carried out by a competent person with adequate expertise and knowledge of the safety function. The test procedures and report must be documented and signed by this person. Validation instructions of the STO function can be found in the drive hardware manual.

Technical data

  • Minimum voltage at IN1 and IN2 to be interpreted as “1”: 13 V DC
  • STO reaction time (shortest detectable break): 1 ms
  • STO response time: 2 ms (typical), 5 ms (maximum)
  • Fault detection time: Channels in different states for longer than 200 ms
  • Fault reaction time: Fault detection time + 10 ms
  • STO fault indication (parameter 31.22) delay: < 500 ms
  • STO warning indication (parameter 31.22) delay: < 1000 ms
  • Safety integrity level (EN 62061): SIL 3
  • Performance level (EN ISO 13849-1): PL e

The drive STO is a type A safety component as defined in IEC 61508-2.
For the full safety data, exact failure rates and failure modes of the STO function, refer to the drive hardware manual.
