5.0MCH RATINGS

The following tables indicate the input and output ratings of the MCH Series drive.

NOTE: The output current ratings are based on operation at carrier frequencies of 8 kHz and below. At full ambient temperature, operation at carrier frequencies above 8 kHz require derating the drive by multiplying the output current rating by the following factors: 0.94 at 10 kHz, 0.89 at 12 kHz, and 0.83 at 14 kHz. Refer to Parameter 23 - CARRIER FREQ in Section 18.0 - DESCRIPTION OF PARAMETERS.

6.0THEORY

6.1DESCRIPTION OF AC MOTOR OPERATION

Three phase AC motors are comprised of two major components, the stator and the rotor. The stator is a set of three electrical windings held stationary in the motor housing. The rotor is a metal cylinder, fixed to the motor drive shaft, which rotates within the stator. The arrangement of the stator coils and the presence of three phase AC voltage give rise to a rotating magnetic field which drives the rotor. The speed at which the magnetic field rotates is known as the synchronous speed of the motor. Synchronous speed is a function of the frequency at which the voltage is alternating and the number of poles in the stator windings.

The following equation gives the relation between synchronous speed, frequency, and the number of poles:

Ss = 120 f/p

Where: Ss = Synchronous speed (rpm ), f = frequency (Hz), p = number of poles

In three phaseinduction motors the actual shaft speed differsfrom thesynchronous speed as load is applied. This difference is known as “slip”. Slip is commonly expressed as a percentage of synchronous speed. Atypical value is three percent at full load.

The strength of the magnetic field in the gap between the rotor and stator is proportional to the amplitude of the voltage at a given frequency. The output torque capability of the motor is, therefore, a function of the applied voltage amplitude at a given frequency. When operated below base (rated) speed, AC motors run in the range of “constant torque”. Constant torque output is obtained by maintaining a constant ratio between voltage amplitude (Volts) and frequency (Hertz). For 60 Hz motors rated at 230, 460, and 575 Vac, common values for this V/Hz ratio are 3.83, 7.66, and 9.58 respectively. Operating with these V/Hz ratios generally yields optimum torque capability. Operating at lower ratio values results in lower torque and power capability. Operating at higher ratio values will cause the motor to overheat. Most standard motors are capable of providing full torque output from 3 to 60 Hz. However, at lower speeds, where motor cooling fans become less effective, supplemental cooling may be needed to operate at full torque output continuously.

14

If the frequency applied to the motor is increased while the voltage remains constant, torque capability will decrease as speed increases. This will cause the horsepower capability of the motor to remain approximately constant. Motors run in this mode when operated above base speed, where drive output voltage is limited by the input line voltage. This operating range is known as the “constant horsepower” range. The typical maximum range for constant horsepower is about 2.3 to 1 (60 to 140 Hz). The diagram below depicts the characteristics of a typical AC induction motor with a 60 Hz base speed.

WARNING!

Consult motor manufacturer before operating motor and/or driven equipment above base speed.

6.1.1VARIABLE TORQUE VS. CONSTANT TORQUE

Variable frequency drives, and the loads they are applied to, can generally be divided into two groups: constant torque and variable torque. Constant torque loads include: vibrating conveyors, punch presses, rock crushers, machine tools, and just about every other application that is not considered variable torque. Variable torque loads include centrifugal pumps and fans, which make up the majority of HVAC applications.

Variable torque loads are governed by the affinity laws, which define the relationships between speed, flow, torque and horsepower. The diagram below illustrates these relationships:

% SPEED

“Variable torque” refers to the fact that the torque required varies with the square of the speed. Also, the horsepower required varies with the cube of the speed, resulting in a large reduction in horsepower for even a small reduction in speed. It is easily seen that substantial energy savings can be achieved by reducing the speed of a fan or pump. For example, reducing the speed to 50% results in a 50 HP motor having to produce only 12.5% of rated horsepower, or 6.25 HP. Variable torque drives usually have a low overload capacity (110% - 120% for 60 seconds), because variable torque applications rarely experience overload conditions. To optimize efficiency and energy savings, variable torque drives are usually programmed to follow a variable V/Hz ratio.

The term “constant torque” is not entirely accurate in terms of the actual torque required for an application. Many constant torque applications have reciprocating loads, such as vibrating conveyors and punch presses, where the rotational motion ofthemotorisbeingconvertedtoalinearmotion. Insuchcases,thetorquerequired can vary greatly at different points in the cycle. For constant torque loads, this fluctuation in torque is not a direct function of speed, as it is with a variable torque load. As a result, constant torque drives typically have a high overload rating (150% for 60 seconds) in order to handle the higher peak torque demands. To achieve maximum torque, constant torque drives follow a constant V/Hz ratio.

The MCH Series has an overload capacity of 120% for one minute, indicating that it is meant for variable torque loads.

6.2DRIVE FUNCTION DESCRIPTION

The MC Series is a microprocessor based, keypad programmable, variable speed AC motor drive. There are four major sections: an input diode bridge and filter, a power board, a control board, and an output intelligent power module.

6.2.1DRIVE OPERATION

Incoming AC line voltage is converted to a pulsating DC voltage by the input diode bridge. The DC voltage is supplied to the bus filter capacitors through a charge circuit which limits inrush current to the capacitors during power-up. The pulsating DC voltage is filtered by the bus capacitors which reduces the ripple level. The filtered DC voltage enters the inverter section of the drive, composed of six output intelligent insulated gate bi-polar transistors (IGBTs) which make up the three output legs of the drive. Each leg has one intelligent IGBT connected to the positive bus voltage and one connected to the negative bus voltage. Alternately switching on each leg, the intelligent IGBT produces an alternating voltage on each of the corresponding motor windings. By switching each output intelligent IGBT at a very high frequency (known as the carrier frequency) for varying time intervals, the inverter is able to produce a smooth, three phase, sinusoidal output current wave which optimizes motor performance.

6.2.2CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION

The control section consists of a control board with a microprocessor, keypad and display. Drive programming is accomplished via the keypad or the serial communications port. During operation the drive can be controlled via the keypad, by control devices wired to the control terminal strip, or by the the serial communications port. The Power Board contains the control and protection circuits which govern the six output IGBTs. The Power Board also contains a charging circuit for the bus filter capacitors, a motor current feedback circuit, a voltage feedback circuit, and a fault signal circuit. The drive has several built in protection circuits. These include phase-to-phase and phase-to-ground short circuitprotection,highandlowlinevoltageprotection,protectionagainstexcessive ambient temperature, and protection against continuous excessive output current. Activation of any of these circuits will cause the drive to shut down in a fault condition.

6.2.3MCH INPUTS & OUTPUTS

The drive has two analog inputs (0-10 VDC and 4-20 mA) that can be used for speed reference, PID setpoint reference, or PID feedback. Aspeed potentiometer (10,000 Ohm) can be used with the 0-10 VDC input.

There are also two analog outputs: one is proportional to speed (frequency), and the other is proportional to load.

The standard MCH drive has three programmable outputs for status indication: one Form C Relay and two open-collector outputs.

Refer to Sections 14.0 - CONTROL WIRING and 15.0 - MCH CONTROL WIRING DIAGRAMS for more information.

7.0INSTALLATION

WARNING!

DRIVES MUSTNOTBE INSTALLEDWHERE SUBJECTEDTOADVERSE ENVIRONMENTALCONDITIONS! DRIVES MUSTNOTBE INSTALLED WHERE SUBJECTED TO: COMBUSTIBLE, OILY, OR HAZARDOUS VAPORS OR DUST; EXCESSIVE MOISTURE OR DIRT; STRONG VIBRATION; EXCESSIVE AMBIENT TEMPERATURES. CONSULT AC TECHNOLOGY FOR MORE INFORMATION ON THE SUITABILITY OF

A DRIVE TO A PARTICULAR ENVIRONMENT.

The drive should be mounted on a smooth vertical surface capable of safely supporting the unit without vibrating. The LCD display has an optimum field of view, this should be considered when determining the mounting position.

Maintain a minimum spacing around the drive as follows:

All drive models MUST be mounted in a vertical position for proper heatsink cooling. Fans or blowers should be used to insure proper cooling in tight quarters. Do not mount drives above other drives or heat producing equipment that would impede the cooling of the drive. Note the ambient operating temperature ratings for each drive model.

If it is necessary to drill or cut the drive enclosure or panel, extreme care must be taken to avoid damaging drive components or contaminating the drive with metal fragments (which cause shorting of electrical circuits). Cover drive components with a clean cloth to keep out metal chips and other debris. Use a vacuum cleaner to clean drive components after drilling, even if chips do not appear to be present. Do not attempt to use positive air pressure to blow chips out of drive, as this tends to lodge debris under electronic components. Contaminating the drive with metal chips can cause drive failure and will void the warranty.

7.1INSTALLATION AFTER A LONG PERIOD OF STORAGE

WARNING!

Severe damage to the drive can result if it is operated after a long period of storage or inactivity without reforming the DC bus capacitors!

If input power has not been applied to the drive for a period of time exceeding three years (due to storage, etc), the electrolytic DC bus capacitors within the drive can change internally, resulting in excessive leakage current. This can result in premature failure of the capacitors if the drive is operated after such a long period of inactivity or storage.

In order to reform the capacitors and prepare the drive for operation after a long period of inactivity, apply input power to the drive for 8 hours prior to actually operating the motor.

7.2EXPLOSION PROOF APPLICATIONS

Explosion proof motors that are not rated for inverter use lose their certification when used for variable speed. Due to the many areas of liability that may be encountered when dealing with these applications, the following statement of policy applies:

“AC Technology Corporation inverter products are sold with no warranty of fitness for a particular purpose or warranty of suitability for use with explosionproofmotors. ACTechnologyCorporationacceptsnoresponsibility for any direct, incidental or consequential loss, cost, or damage that may arise through the use of its AC inverter products in these applications.

8.0INPUTAC REQUIREMENTS

WARNING!

Hazard of electrical shock! Disconnect incoming power and wait three minutes before servicing the drive. Capacitors retain charge after power is removed.

8.1INPUT AC POWER REQUIREMENTS

8.1.1VOLTAGE

The input voltage must match the drive’s nameplate voltage rating. Voltage fluctuation must not vary by greater than 10% overvoltage or 15% undervoltage.

NOTE: Drives with dual rated input voltage must be programmed for the proper supply voltage. Refer to Parameter 0 - LINE VOLTS in Section 18.0 - DESCRIPTION OF PARAMETERS.

The drive is suitable for use on a circuit capable of delivering not more than 200,000 RMS symmetrical amperes, at the drive’s rated voltage.

Three phase voltage imbalance must be less than 2.0% phase to phase. Excessive phase to phase imbalance can cause severe damage to the drive’s power components.

Motor voltage should match line voltage in normal applications. The drive’s maximum output voltage will equal the input voltage. Use extreme caution when using a motor with a voltage rating which is different from the input line voltage.

8.1.2SUPPLY TRANSFORMER kVA RATINGS

If the kVA rating of the AC supply transformer is greater than ten times the input kVArating of the drive, a drive isolation transformer, or a 2 - 3% input line reactor (also known as a choke) must be added.

8.2INPUT FUSING AND DISCONNECT REQUIREMENTS

Acircuit breaker or a disconnect switch with fuses must be provided in accordance with the National Electric Code (NEC) and all local codes.

The MCH drive is capable of withstanding up to 120% current overload for 60 seconds. Select a fuse or magnetic trip circuit breaker rated at 1.25 times the input current rating of the drive (the minimum size should be 10 amps, regardless of input current rating). Refer to Section 5.0 – MCH RATINGS.

Minimum voltage rating of the protection device should be 250 Vac for 240/200 Vac rated drives, and 600 Vac for 480/400 Vac and 590/480 Vac drives.

Phone: 800.894.0412 - Fax: 208.368.0415 - www.ctiautomation.net - e.mail: info@ctiautomation.net

20

Current limiting type fuses should be used when input fusing is required. Select fuses with low I 2 T values, rated at 200,000 AIC. Recommended fuses are Bussman type KTK-R, JJN, and JJS. Similar fuses with equivalent ratings by other manufacturers may also be acceptable.

9.0VOLTAGE SELECTION

MH200 Series drives are rated for 240/200 Vac, 50-60 Hz input. The drive will function with input voltages of 200 to 240 Vac (+ 10%, - 15%), at 48 to 62 Hz.

MH400 Series drives are rated for 480/400 Vac, 50-60 Hz input. The drive will function with input voltages of 400 to 480 Vac (+ 10%, - 15%), at 48 to 62 Hz.

MH500 Series drives are rated for 590/480 Vac, 50-60 Hz input. The drive will function with input voltages of 480 to 590 Vac (+ 10%, - 15%), at 48 to 62 Hz.

10.0POWER WIRING

WARNING!

Hazard of electrical shock. Disconnect incoming power and wait three minutes before servicing the drive. Capacitors retain charge after power is removed.

Note drive input and output current ratings and check applicable electrical codes for required wire type and size, grounding requirements, overcurrent protection, and incoming power disconnect, before wiring the drive. Size conservatively to minimize voltage drop.

Input fusing and a power disconnect switch or contactor MUST be wired in series with terminals L1, L2, and L3. If one has not been supplied by AC Technology Corporation,adisconnectmeansmustbewiredduringinstallation. Thisdisconnect must be used to power down the drive when servicing, or when the drive is not to be operated for a long period of time, but should not be used to start and stop the motor.

Repetitive cycling of a disconnect or input contactor (more than once every two minutes) may cause damage to the drive.

All three power output wires, from terminals T1, T2, and T3 to the motor, must be kept tightly bundled and run in a separate conduit away from all other power and control wiring.

Do not install contactors between the drive and motor without consulting AC Technology Corporation for more information. Operating such devices while the drive is running can potentially cause damage to the drive's power components. If such a device is required, it should only be operated when the drive is in a STOP state.

12.0INITIAL POWER UP

WARNING!

Hazard of electrical shock! Wait three minutes after disconnecting incoming power before servicing drive. Capacitors retain charge after power is removed.

Before attempting to operate the drive, motor, and driven equipment be sure all procedures pertaining to installation and wiring have been properly followed.

WARNING!

Severe damage to the drive can result if it is operated after a long period of storage or inactivity without reforming the DC bus capacitors!

If input power has not been applied to the drive for a period of time exceeding three years (due to storage, etc), the electrolytic DC bus capacitors within the drive can change internally, resulting in excessive leakage current. This can result in premature failure of the capacitors if the drive is operated after such a long period of inactivity or storage.

In order to reform the capacitors and prepare the drive for operation after a long period of inactivity, apply input power to the drive for 8 hours prior to actually operating the motor.

Disconnect the driven load from the motor. Verify that the drive input terminals (L1, L2, and L3) are wired to the proper input voltage per the nameplate rating of the drive.

WARNING!

DO NOT connect incomingAC power to output terminals T1, T2, and T3! Do not cycle input power to the drive more than once every two minutes. Damage to the drive will result.

Energize the incoming power line. The LCD display should light and flash “TESTING” and then show the voltage and horsepower rating of the drive. The display should then look like the example display below, which indicates that the drive is in a STOP state, the speed setpoint is 20.00 Hz, and there is no load (because it is not running):

 

 

 

 

 

KSTOP >

20.00 HZ

 

 

0 % LOAD

OFF

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

NOTE: If the drive is equipped with Bypass, the drive will not power up unless the Drive Mode/Off/Bypass Mode switch is in the Drive Mode position, or the Drive Test/Off/Drive Normal switch is in the Drive Test position.

If the display does not appear, remove the incoming power, wait three minutes for the bus capacitors to discharge, and verify correct installation and wiring. If the wiring is correct, re-apply incoming power and note the display for drive status. If the display still does not appear call the factory for assistance.

Follow the procedure given below to check the motor rotation:

1.Use the key to decrease the speed setpoint to the minimum value allowed (0.50 Hz if Parameter 10 - MIN FREQ has not been changed).

2.PresstheHAND(START)key. ThedriveshouldindicateRUN,butifthespeed setpoint is 0.50 Hz, the motor may not rotate. Press the key to increase the speed setpoint until the motor starts to rotate.

3.If the motor is rotating in the wrong direction, press the OFF (STOP) key and remove power from the drive. Wait three minutes for the bus capacitors to discharge, and swap any two of the motor wires connected to T1, T2, and T3.

NOTE 1: The drive is phase insensitive with respect to incoming line voltage. Therefore, to change the motor rotation, the phases must be swapped at the drive output terminals or at the motor.

NOTE 2: If the drive is equipped with the Bypass option, motor rotation must be checked in both drive mode and bypass mode:

To check rotation in Drive mode:

1.Select Drive Mode using the Drive Mode/Off/Bypass Mode switch.

2.Select Drive Normal using the Drive Test/Off/Drive Normal switch.

3.Select HAND using the HAND/OFF/AUTO switch. The drive should start, allowing the motor rotation to be checked.

To check rotation in Bypass mode:

1.Select Bypass Mode using the Drive Mode/Off/Bypass Mode switch.

2.Select Drive Normal using the Drive Test/Off/Drive Normal switch.

3.Momentarily put the Hand/Off/Auto switch into Hand to "bump" the motor so rotation can be checked.

If rotation is incorrect in both modes, swap any two motor leads at the output terminals (thermal overload terminals).

If rotation is correct in drive mode, but incorrect in bypass mode, swap any two leads at the main input power terminals.

If rotation is incorrect in drive mode, but correct in bypass mode, swap any two leads at the main input terminals AND any two leads at the output terminals (thermal overload terminals).
