Grounding
These instructions are intended for all who are responsible for the
grounding of the drive. Incorrect grounding can cause physical injury,
death and/or equipment malfunction and increase electromagnetic
interference.
WARNING!
• Ground the drive, motor and adjoining equipment to ensure
personnel safety in all circumstances, and to reduce
electromagnetic emission and pick-up.
• Make sure that grounding conductors are adequately sized and
marked as required by safety regulations.
• In a multiple-drive installation, connect each drive separately to
protective earth (PE ).
• Minimize EMC emission and make a 360° high frequency
grounding (e.g. conductive sleeves) of screened cable entries at
the cabinet lead-through plate.
• Do not install a drive equipped with an EMC filter to an
ungrounded power system or a high resistance-grounded (over 30
ohms) power system.
Note:
• Power cable shields are suitable as equipment grounding
conductors only when adequately sized to meet safety regulations.
• As the normal leakage current of the drive is higher than 3.5 mA
AC or 10 mA DC (stated by EN 50178, 5.2.11.1), a fixed protective
earth connection is required.

Printed circuit boards and fiber optic cables
These instructions are intended for all who handle the circuit boards
and fiber optic cables. Ignoring the following instructions can cause
damage to the equipment.
WARNING! The printed circuit boards contain components sensitive to
electrostatic discharge. Wear a grounding wrist band when handling
the boards. Do not touch the boards unnecessarily.
Use grounding strip:
ABB order no.: 3ADV050035P0001
WARNING! Handle the fiber optic cables with care. When unplugging
optic cables, always grab the connector, not the cable itself. Do not
touch the ends of the fibers with bare hands as the fiber is extremely
sensitive to dirt. The minimum allowed bend radius is 35 mm (1.38 in.).

Operation
These warnings are intended for all who plan the operation of the drive
or operate the drive. Ignoring the instructions can cause physical injury
or death and/or damage to the equipment.
WARNING!
• Before adjusting the drive and putting it into service, make sure
that the motor and all driven equipment are suitable for operation
throughout the speed range provided by the drive. The drive can
be adjusted to operate the motor at speeds above and below the
base speed.
• Do not control the motor with the disconnecting device
(disconnecting mains); instead, use the control panel keys
and
, or commands via the I/O board of the drive.
• Mains connection
You can use a disconnect switch (with fuses) to disconnect the
electrical components of the drive from the mains for installation
and maintenance work. The type of disconnect switch used must
be as per EN 60947-3, Class B, so as to comply with EU
regulations, or a circuit-breaker type which switches off the load
circuit by means of an auxiliary contact causing the breaker's main
contacts to open. The mains disconnect must be locked in its
"OPEN" position during any installation and maintenance work.
• EMERGENCY STOP buttons must be installed at each control
desk and at all other control panels requiring an emergency stop
function. Pressing the STOP button on the control panel of the
drive will neither cause an emergency stop of the motor, nor will
the drive be disconnected from any dangerous potential.
To avoid unintentional operating states, or to shut the unit down in
case of any imminent danger according to the standards in the
safety instructions it is not sufficient to merely shut down the drive
via signals "RUN", "drive OFF" or "Emergency Stop" respectively
"control panel" or "PC tool".
• Intended use
The operating instructions cannot take into consideration every
possible case of configuration, operation or maintenance. Thus,
they mainly give such advice only, which is required by qualified
personnel for normal operation of the machines and devices in
industrial installations.
If in special cases the electrical machines and devices are intended for use in non-industrial installations - which may require
stricter safety regulations (e.g. protection against contact by
children or similar) - these additional safety measures for the
installation must be provided by the customer during assembly.

How to detect a faulty thyristor
Thyristor problems can be noticed differently:
A fuse is blown
This is an indication, that a strong overcurrent has happened due to one of the
following reasons:
An internal short circuit between the phases (line side) because of a defective
thyristor (short circuit inside a thyristor from anode to cathode).
An internal short circuit between the phases (line side) because of circulating
current in a 4-Q converter (malfunction of the control electronics, no thyristor
defective).
An external short circuit at the DC terminals of the converter without sufficient
impedance.
A commutation fault during generating (active braking with high current, high
EMF and with low AC voltage) of a 4-Q converter.
Note:
In case of parallel fuses: If one of the parallel fuses is blown, all parallel fuses have
to be changed. The ‘undamaged’ fuses might be ‘half-blown’ and will blow with the
next high current.
Fault Tracing Thyristors
3ADW000195R0501 DCS800 Service Manual e e
Page 23

DC-current pulses measured by an oscilloscope
Connect an oscilloscope to the fixed AO I-act (X4:9/10 on the SDCS-CON-4 or
X4:5/6 on the SDCS-IOB-3) and check for the proper amount of current pulses:
Six current pulses in positive direction
There should be six current pulses in positive direction.
In case of a 4-Q converter also the six current pulses for the negative direction
have to be checked.
Thyristor diagnosis
Also the thyristor diagnosis provided by the firmware can be used:
Switch the drive to local mode (DriveWindow, DriveWindow Light, DCS Control
Panel or local I/O).
Start the thyristor diagnosis by means of ServiceMode (99.06) = ThyDiagnosis
and set On and Run within 20 s.
During the thyristor diagnosis the main contactor will be closed and the
thyristors are checked. The field current is not released while the thyristor
diagnosis is active and thus the motor should not turn.
When the thyristor diagnosis is finished check Diagnosis (9.11) for details.
Ripple monitor
The ripple monitor indicates that the ripple of the DC current is much higher than
normal. In such a case, most often one thyristor does not work. It’s missing current
contribution causes a deep dip in the direct current.
The structure of the current loop (current controller) will force the other thyristors to
compensate the dip by a certain overcurrent in order to keep the average current
constant. Such a compensation results in a ripple monitoring fault during motoring
mode operation with 90°.
The reason for a current less thyristor may be:
Fault Tracing Thyristors
Page 24
24
A fuse has disconnected one of the six thyristors. This is possible only for
converters with 900 ... 5200 A (six internal branch fuses). A converter with
three external fuses stops working completely at once when one of the three
AC input fuses interrupts a phase input of the converter.
A thyristor does not get firing pulses or does not react to firing pulses.
The current controller may be totally mismatched to the DC load.
The AC mains network is causing that fault message. In this case,
asymmetrical phase shift, uneven phase voltage or critical designed power
factor correction equipment or harmonic reduction equipment can be the
reason.
How to find a faulty thyristor
If a blown fuse is suspected in the converter, the problem is caused most often by
a faulty thyristor. To make sure, that a thyristor is the reason and needs to be
exchanged fault tracing must be done in two different ways, depending on the size
of the converter.
In general, make sure, that all safety instructions, given within this manual or
within the safety instructions, related to the machine or the application itself,
are obeyed.
Converters size D1 to D4 (20...1000 A)
These converters require semiconductor fuses in the 3 AC lines.
The converter must be disconnected from the mains.
One motor armature cable should be disconnected from the converter.
Blown fuses
Using the OHM function of a normal multimeter, measurements must be made
from each AC terminal to each DC terminal (U1 to C1, V1 to C1, W1 to C1, U1
to D1, V1 to D1 and W1 to D1; see pictureAnti-parallel B6-bridges with
branching fuses on page 45). Normally, every measurement should show high
resistance (> 1 k).
Target: find a short circuit, indicated by low resistance ( <1 ) (destroyed
thyristor).
If the converter is designed with half-bridge thyristor modules, then a module
consists of two anti-parallel thyristors. In this case it is sufficient to know which
thyristor pair or module has a defective thyristor because the complete module
must be replaced.
After a thyristor module is replaced, the above mentioned measurement should
be done another time to make sure that all faulty thyristors have been detected!
Note:
The RC circuit could also cause 0 result for a short time.
The measurement, showing less resistance than 1 should be made a second
time with test leads applied to the terminals with opposite polarity; if this
measurement shows the same result, one or two thyristors located in that path are
faulty; they need to be replaced.
Fault Tracing Thyristors
3ADW000195R0501 DCS800 Service Manual e e
Page 25
25
Converters size D5, D6, and D7 (900...5200 A)
These converters are equipped with fuses in the branches of the
power part.
The converter must be disconnected from the mains.
Blown fuses
In case of a blown fuse, the faulty thyristor or the faulty pair of
thyristors are already isolated at one side from the others and
therefore the faulty branch is known (see pictureAnti-parallel
B6-bridges with branching fuseson page 45).
The OHM test should be performed, when the thyristor is still
clamped. Outside the converter a special thyristor clamping
device is needed.
For 4-Q converters with anti-parallel thyristors or BCT’s:
The selection of a forward or reverse thyristor or BCT
(Bidirectional-Controlled-Thyristor) is done during the
disassembly. Continue with related part Exchange of Thyristors for SizeD5
After a thyristor was replaced, the OHM test should be done
another time to make sure that all faulty thyristors have been
detected! If the motor is still connected to the converter the
result of the measurement may be wrong.
, D6 or D7 section Find faulty thyristor.
Ripple monitor
If the ripple monitor fault occurred, a fault tracing as described
above must be carried out:
Check the fuses and the thyristors, according to the statements
before.
If the power section seems to be ok, but still one or more
thyristors don’t take current, something went wrong in between
the firing pulse generation and the thyristor’s gate; in this case
check:
Is a firing pulse present on the primary side of the firing
pulse transformer?
Is a firing pulse present on the secondary side of the
firing pulse transformer?
Is the firing pulse transferred to the gate of the thyristor?
Are there all electrical connections still healthy?
Can the thyristor be fired with the applied firing pulse? Is
the pulse form of the firing pulse identical at all
measuring positions?
Check the settings of the current controller.
Check the AC mains network by taking recordings of the line
voltage and current at all 3 phases at the same time.

Handling the Semiconductors
General Instruction how to handle the Semiconductors
Thyristor modules, busbars and fuses have to be mounted with the correct torque
using a torque screw driver or torque wrench.
In converters sizes D5 (900 ... 2000 A), D6 (1900 ... 3000 A) and D7 (2050 ... 5200
A) the mounting force is indicated by an indicating spring welded to the mounting
clamp, which is inside the unit.
Always mark suspected damaged components clearly after removing them from
the circuit, to avoid confusion with "good" components.
When removing a damaged semiconductor, write down how and where it was
installed (direction, location, connected gate leads and with BCT’s the position of
the gate connectors).
Check that the new and old components have the same type designation or that
the new component can replace the old one. A semiconductor can be replaced by
different compatible semiconductor according to the codes in the manufacturers'
table.
Semiconductor components are high-precision products. All unnecessary used
tools and objects might damage the easily dented and scratched surfaces of the
semiconductors.
1. Keep new semiconductors as long as possible in their original packages.
2. Use protective gloves if possible.
3. Clean work area and hands frequently.
4. Use good illumination.

Installation of OnBoard bridge and thyristor modules in converters size
D1 to D4
All DCS800 size D1 to D4 are equipped with an OnBoard bridge (excitation) and
(20...1000 A)
thyristor modules. In order to keep the operating temperature of the semiconductor
module low, the joint between the heat sink and the module should have a good
heat conducting ability. The electrical conductivity of the connectors must also be
good. For this reason the following instructions must be observed with particular
care.
Required Tools
Special tools or material needed in addition to standard tools for the exchange of
thyristor modules:
Torx screwdrivers: TX10, TX20, TX25

Installation of "Disc Type" thyristor in converters size D5 (900...2000 A)
All DCS800 converters sizes D5/D6/D7 are equipped with disk type thyristors. The
structure of the "Disc type" semiconductor component is such that it requires a
certain compression force to operate. The prevention of overheating of the
component essentially depends on a good heat dissipation between the
semiconductor and the conducted heat sink. It is thus important that all joints have
good thermal and electrical conduction.
Required Tools
Special tools or material needed in addition to standard tools for the exchange of
Screws are metric type; use appropriate nuts.
17 mm ring spanner for fuse and busbar connections.
17 mm ring spanner for press clamp.

Note:
For more detailed information about the wiring of the power part, see Hardware
Manual.
Therefore strict observance of the build in instructions given below is of utmost
importance. Make sure that the new component can replace the old one in
accordance with the spare part list (see Appendix A
Semiconductors and heat sinks are to be handled carefully to avoid scratches and
other damage. Avoid touching the contact surfaces. Do not lift the semiconductor
with the gate wire. Do not lift the semiconductor by touching the current contact
surfaces. Do not damage the welding flange or the contact surface.
Before you start work, disconnect the converter completely from the power
supply then check the voltage free condition and make sure, everything is
located in an electrically and mechanically safe condition!

Remove faulty thyristor
1. Remove the screws of the DC – busbars and branch fuses preventing the
stack to be prized open.
Note:
It depends on the location of the defective thyristor which DC – busbar and
fuses have to be disconnected.
2. Write down the direction and location of the thyristors to be removed and mark
their gate leads.
3. Remove the gate leads if possible.
4. Loosen the mounting clamp (see fig. Aluminum spring with welded indicating
spring on page 47) at the top of the thyristor stack.
Attention: While loosen the mounting clamp the indicating spring must be pulled
out a little, otherwise the spring will be damaged!
5. Attach the disassembly tool at the faulty thyristor and prize open the upper and
lower heat sinks (see fig. How to use the disassembly tool
page 46).
6. Remove the thyristors.
Attention: To centre the thyristors spring pins are used. The pins are inlayed into
all lower heat sinks. Open the gap wide enough that the thyristor and the pins are
not damaged while removing the thyristor!

Install new thyristor
1. Ensure that the new thyristor is of the correct type (see Appendix A). Keep the
semiconductor and its surroundings clean. If necessary clean them with a
piece of tissue paper moistened with solvent.
Note:
Do not touch the polished surfaces of the thyristor.
2. Clean the polished surfaces of the semiconductor with a piece of tissue paper
moistened with solvent. Dry all surfaces. Spread a thin layer of heat
conducting paste on both sides of the thyristor, if necessary use a rubber
spatula.
3. Connect the gate leads if possible.
4. Clean all parts with tissue paper moistened with solvent, which have had or will
have contact with the thyristor or each other (lower / upper heat sink). Do not
clean the surfaces of grease too thoroughly, because the aluminum surfaces
will oxidize in a few seconds. Dry all surfaces.
5. Centre the thyristors by means of the spring pins.
Note:
Be sure that the thyristor is installed in the right direction. Do not pinch or cut
the gate leads or any other cable.
6. Turn the thyristor so that the gate leads point in the right direction.

Find faulty thyristor
1. Find the defective branches by performing an OHM test (both polarities)
between U1, V1, W1 and C1, D1 (see picture Anti-parallel B6-bridges with
branching fuses on page 45).
2. Disconnect the branching fuses of the defective branches.
3. Find the defective thyristors by performing an OHM test (both polarities) over
their heat sinks.
4. In a 4 - quadrant converter with BCT’s change the BCT.
5. In a 4 - quadrant converter with 2 single thyristors change both thyristors
clamped between the same heatsinks at once.
Note:
Because “Disc Type” semiconductors need a certain compression force to operate
properly, a measurement outside the clamped heat sinks might be wrong. To be
sure which thyristor is broken change only one thyristor, clamp the heat sinks
again and repeat step three.

1. Ensure that the new thyristor is of the correct type (see appendix A). Keep the
semiconductor and its surroundings clean. If necessary clean them with a
piece of tissue paper moistened with solvent.
Note:
Do not touch the polished surfaces of the thyristor.
2. Clean the polished surfaces of the semiconductor with a piece of tissue paper
moistened with solvent. Dry all surfaces. Spread a thin layer of heat
conducting paste on both sides of the thyristor, if necessary use a rubber
spatula.
Prepare disk type thyristor
3. Clean all parts with tissue paper moistened with solvent, which have had or will
have contact with the thyristor or each other (lower / upper heat sink). Do not
clean the surfaces of grease too thoroughly, because the aluminum surfaces
will oxidize in a few seconds. Dry all surfaces.
4. Centre the thyristors by means of the spring pins.
Note:
Be sure that the thyristor is installed in the right direction. Do not pinch or cut
the gate leads or any other cable.
5. Turn the thyristor so that the gate leads point in the right direction. When
changing BCT’s make sure, that gate A is in front (see fig. Gates of BCT

Installation of "Disc Type" thyristor in converters size D7 (2050...5200 A)
All DCS800 converters sizes D5/D6/D7 are equipped with disk type thyristors. The
structure of the "Disc type" semiconductor component is such that it requires a
certain compression force to operate. The prevention of overheating of the
component essentially depends on a good heat dissipation between the
semiconductor and the conducted heat sink. It is thus important that all joints have
good thermal and electrical conduction.

How to remove the converter fans in frames D1 to D3 (two fans)
Converters types DCS800-S01-0045-0x to DCS800-S02-0350-0x using two 115
VAC fans. Depending on the supply voltage they are either connected in series, for
230 VAC. or in parallel, for 115 VAC:
Fan configuration D1 to D3
In case a fan fails there are different approaches due to the incoming voltage.
230 VAC:
115 VAC:
With a supply voltage of 230 VAC fans M55 and M56 are connected in series.
Consequently both fans have to be of the same manufacturer and type. Thus it is
not possible to change only the broken fan. In this case both fans have to be
changed.
With a supply voltage of 115 VAC all fans are connected in parallel. Thus it is
possible to change only the broken fan.

the same manufacturer and type. Thus it is not possible to change only the broken
fan. Always change the two fans connected in series.
115 VAC:
With a supply voltage of 115 VAC all fans are connected in parallel. Thus it is
possible to change only the broken fan.
