2 Important Safety Information

Read IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION below, especially Warnings and Caution.

Danger : Indicates a risk of electric shock, which, if not
avoided, could result in damage to the equipment and

This variable speed drive product is intended for professional incorporation into complete equipment or systems as part of a fixed installation. If installed
incorrectly it may present a safety hazard. The BFI uses high voltages and currents, carries a high level of stored electrical energy, and is used to control
mechanical plant that may cause injury. Close attention is required to system design and electrical installation to avoid hazards in either normal operation
or in the event of equipment malfunction. Only qualified electricians are allowed to install and maintain this product.

System design, installation, commissioning and maintenance must be carried out only by personnel who have the necessary training and experience.
They must carefully read this safety information and the instructions in this Guide and follow all information regarding transport, storage, installation and

Electric shock hazard! Disconnect and ISOLATE the BFI before attempting any work on it. High voltages are present at the terminals and within the
drive for up to 10 minutes after disconnection of the electrical supply. Always ensure by using a suitable multimeter that no voltage is present on any

Ensure correct earthing connections. The earth cable must be sufficient to carry the maximum supply fault current which normally will be limited by the
fuses or MCB. Suitably rated fuses or MCB should be fitted in the mains supply to the drive, according to any local legislation or codes.

Do not carry out any work on the drive control cables whilst power is applied to the drive or to the external control circuits.
Within the European Union, all machinery in which this product is used must comply with Directive 98/37/EC, Safety of Machinery. In particular, the

The level of integrity offered by the BFI control input functions – for example stop/start, forward/reverse and maximum speed is not sufficient for use in
safety-critical applications without independent channels of protection. All applications where malfunction could cause injury or loss of life must be

The STOP function does not remove potentially lethal high voltages. ISOLATE the drive and wait 10 minutes before starting any work on it. Never carry

The BFI can be programmed to operate the driven motor at speeds above or below the speed achieved when connecting the motor directly to the mains
supply. Obtain confirmation from the manufacturers of the motor and the driven machine about suitability for operation over the intended speed range

Danger : Indicates a potentially hazardous
situation other than electrical, which if not

When mounting the drive, ensure that sufficient cooling is provided. Do not carry out drilling operations with the drive in place, dust and swarf from

The entry of conductive or flammable foreign bodies should be prevented. Flammable material should not be placed close to the drive

Wherever control cabling is close to power cabling, maintain a minimum separation of 100 mm and arrange crossings at 90 degrees

Do not attempt to carry out any repair of the BFI. In the case of suspected fault or malfunction, contact your local Beijer Electronics office for further

free mounting using the integral holes. IP66 is allowed for outdoor mounting. But it is
recommended having an external roof to avoid snow directly on drive. BFI will not start if
ambient temperature is below -20°C. See User Manual BFI-E3 for more details.

 Drive is to be connected with ground/PE by separate grounding wire.
 1-phase power supply should be connected to L1/L, L2/N.
 3-phase power supply should be connected to L1, L2 and L3.

 Phase sequence of power supply is not important and cable doesn’t have to be a shielded.
 Protective grounding of motor is connected to drive
 Motor cable should be connected to U, V, W.

- Rated voltage of motor 400/660, Delta connection

 Inverter Power supply 1*230 VAC

- Rated voltage of motor 230/400, Delta connection

 Motor cable must be a shielded cable to fulfill EMC requirements. Example of cables to be

used are RKFK, Ölflex Classic 100 CY, FKKJ-EMC, or similar.

 Shield of the motor cable should be connected to ground/earth in both ends. On motor side

an EMC-gland is to be used.

 Shield of motor cable is to be connected to ground terminal in the drive itself. For IP20

drives the shield can instead be clamped to the mounting plate with a clip.

 Motor must also be well attached into the mechanical frame of the machinery and have the

same potential as the electrical cabinet. Separate earth connection might be necessary.

 Motor cable should avoid to be installed close to telephone-, network- or signal wiring.

Minimum distance is 30 cm.

4.6 Brake transistor and external brake resistor

If a larger amount of regenerate power is being produced than the BFI can handle at stop function AC
Flux Braking can be used. Means that motor is being over excitated during stop and used as brake
resistor. Note that heat of motor will increase and it only works during deceleration. Put parameter P­05=3 to activate AC Flux braking.
If AC Flux braking is not enough BFI from Size2 has a dynamic brake transistor and an optional
external braking resistor can be connected to +DC and BR when required. The brake resistor circuit
should be protected by a suitable thermal protection circuit. The –DC, +DC and BR connections are
blanked off by plastic tabs when sent from the factory. The plastic tabs can be removed if/when
required.
Table shows models with built-in brake transistor suggestion of brake resistors.

- Internal resistor, OD-BR100-BFI is mounted inside BFI IP20 and is activated and

protected from overload by setting of P34=1.

- External resistor must always be used together with a slow external overload

protection and P34=2. Table shows setting current of the external overload
protection.
