2 Safety

2.1 Safety Symbols

The following symbols are used in this manual:

WARNING

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation that could result in death or serious injury.

CAUTION

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation that could result in minor or moderate injury. It can also be used to alert against unsafe practices.

NOTICE

Indicates important information, including situations that can result in damage to equipment or property.

2.2 Qualified Personnel

WARNING

UNINTENDED START

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 via an external switch, a serial bus command, an input reference signal from the LCP, or after a cleared fault condition. To prevent unintended motor start:

Disconnect the frequency converter from the

•

mains. Press [Off/Reset] on the LCP before

•

programming parameters. Fully wire and assembly the frequency

•

converter, motor, and any driven equipment before connecting the frequency converter to AC mains, DC supply, or load sharing.

Correct and reliable transport, storage, installation, operation, and maintenance are required for the troublefree and safe operation of the frequency converter. Only qualified personnel are allowed to install or operate this equipment.

Qualified personnel are defined as trained staff, who are authorised to install, commission, and maintain equipment, systems, and circuits in accordance with pertinent laws and regulations. Additionally, the qualified personnel must be familiar with the instructions and safety measures described in these operating instructions.

2.3

Safety

WARNING

HIGH VOLTAGE

Frequency converters contain high voltage when connected to AC mains input, DC supply, or load sharing. Failure to perform installation, start-up, and maintenance by qualified personnel can result in death or serious injury.

Installation, start-up, and maintenance must be

•

performed by qualified personnel only.

WARNING

DISCHARGE TIME

The frequency converter contains DC-link capacitors, which can remain charged even when the frequency converter is not powered. Failure to wait the specified time after power has been removed before performing service or repair work, could result in death or serious injury.

1. Stop the motor.

2. Disconnect FC 51 from mains (and external DC supply, if present).

3. Wait for 4 minutes (M1, M2 and M3) and 15 min (M4 and M5) for discharge of the DC-link.

4. Disconnect DC bus terminals and brake terminals (if present).

5. Remove motor cable.

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.

Safety

Programming Guide

WARNING

EQUIPMENT HAZARD

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 document.

•

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.

4.1 Parameter Group 0: Operation/Display

0-03 Regional Settings

Option: Function:

In order to meet the needs for different default settings in different parts of the world, 0-03 Regional Settings, is implemented in the frequency converter. The selected setting influences the default setting of the motor nominal frequency.

[0 ] * Interna-

tional

[1] US

Sets default of 1-23 Motor Frequency, to 50 Hz, shows 1-20 Motor Power in kW. Sets default of 1-23 Motor Frequency, to 60 Hz, shows 1-20 Motor Power in HP.

NOTICE

This parameter cannot be changed while motor runs.

0-04 Operating State at Power-up (Hand Mode)

Option: Function:

This parameter controls whether or not the frequency converter start running the motor when powering up after a power down in Hand mode.

NOTICE

If LCP with potentiometer is mounted, reference is set according to actual potentiometer value.

[0] Resume Frequency converter starts in same Hand or

Off State as when powered off. Local reference is stored and used after power-up.

[1] * Forced

Stop, Ref=Old

[2] Forced

Stop, Ref=0

Frequency converter powers up in Off State meaning that motor is stopped after power up. Local reference is stored and used after power-up. Frequency converter powers up in Off State meaning that motor is stopped after power up. Local reference is set to 0. Thus motor will not start running before local reference has been increased.

4.1.1 0-1* Set-up Handling

User-defined parameters and miscellaneous external inputs (eg. bus, LCP, analog/digital inputs, feedback, etc.) controls the functionality of the frequency converter.

A complete set of all parameters controlling the frequency converter is called a set-up. The frequency converter contains 2 set-ups, Set-up 1 and Set-up 2. Furthermore, a fixed set of factory settings can be copied into one or more set-ups.

Some of the advantages of having more than one set-up in the frequency converter are

The Active Set-up can be set as Multi Set-up where the active set-up is selected via input on a digital input terminal and/or via the bus control word.

NOTICE

Factory Set-up cannot be used as active set-up.

0-10 Active Set-up

Option: Function:

Active Set-up controls the motor. Shifts between set-ups can only happen when

the motor is coasted

•

the set-ups between which the shift

•

happens are linked to each other (see 0-12 Linked Set-ups).

If changing between set-ups that are not linked, the change will not happen before motor is coasted.

NOTICE

The motor is only considered stopped when it is coasted.

Option: Function:

The link ensures synchronizing of the “not changeable during operation” parameter values enabling shift from one set-up to another during operation. If the set-ups are not linked, a change between them is not possible while the motor is running. Thus the set-up change does not occur until the motor is coasted.

4.1.2 0-4* LCP

The frequency converter can operate in the following three modes: Hand, Off and Auto. Hand: The frequency converter is locally operated and does not allow any remote control. By activating Hand a start signal is given. OFF: The frequency converter stops with a normal stop ramp. When Off is chosen the frequency converter can only be started by pressing either Hand or Auto on the LCP. Auto: In Auto-mode the frequency converter can be remote controlled (bus/digital).

4.3.2 2-1* Brake Energy Function

Use the parameters in this group for selecting dynamic braking parameters.

2-10 Brake Function

Option: Function:

NOTICE

Resistor brake is only functional in frequency converters with integrated dynamic brake. An external resistor must be connected.

Resistor brake

The resistor brake limits voltage in the intermediate circuit when the motor acts as generator. Without brake resistor, the frequency converter eventually trips. The resistor brake consumes surplus energy resulting from motor braking. A frequency converter with brake, stops a motor faster than without a brake, which is used in many applications. Requires connection of external brake resistor. An alternative to the resistor brake is the AC brake.

AC brake

The AC brake consumes surplus energy by creating power loss in the motor. It is important to keep in mind that an increase in power loss causes motor temperature to rise.
