Foreseeable Misuse
1.5.2
Any use not expressly approved by Danfoss constitutes
misuse. This also applies to failure to comply with the
specied operating conditions and applications.
according to DIN 44081 or 44082, the MCB 112 oers
ATEX-approved monitoring of the motor temperature.
Alternatively, an external ATEX-approved PTC protection
device can be used.
1.5.4 ATEX ETR Thermal Monitoring
NOTICE
The ATEX ETR thermal monitoring function only applies
to Ex-e and Ex-n motors and is only available for VLT
AutomationDrive FC 302 frequency converters.
The FC 302 with
equipped with an ATEX ETR thermal monitoring function
for operation of Ex-e motors according to EN 60079-7 and
Ex-n motors according to EN 60079-15. Combined with an
ATEX-approved PTC monitoring device like MCB 112, the
installation does not need an individual approval from an
approbated organisation, that there is no need for
matched pairs.
The feature makes it easier to apply Ex-e and Ex-n motors
instead of the more expensive, larger, and heavier Ex-d
motors. The use of Ex-e and Ex-n motors is possible by
ensuring that the frequency converter limits the motor
current to prevent the motor from heating up.

1.5.3 Thermal Motor Protection
According to ATEX Directive 94/9/EC and Standard EN
60079-14, motor overload protection is a requirement.
The MCB 112 monitors the temperature in the motor
windings with an ATEX-approved motor overload
protection device. If there is a critical temperature level or
a malfunction, switch o the motor. If the frequency
converter is equipped with 3–6 PTC thermistors in series
The MCB 112 includes a tripping stage for PTC thermistor
sensors with safe potential separation of supply voltage
from ground. The tripping function switches o the +24 V
DC directly at terminal 37 on the frequency converter.
The PNP logic output terminal X44/10 signals the status in
case of failure. The MCB 112 works according to the
closed-circuit principle. The device trips in case of short
circuit or line interruption.
Safe Separation
1.5.6
The PTC thermistor circuit (T1, T2) has a safe separation of
low-voltage electric circuits PELV, see chapter 3.2 Instal-lation of Sensor Circuit Wires.
1.5.7
Safe Disconnection Principle
The Safe Torque O function disables the control voltage
of the power semiconductors or the frequency converter
output stage. Disabling the control voltage prevents the
inverter from generating the voltage required to rotate the
motor.
For every certied motor with increased safety, the
manufacturer supplies a data list including limits and rules.
During planning, installation, commissioning, operation,
and service, respect the limits for:
Minimum switching frequency.
•
Maximum current.
•
Minimum motor frequency.
•
Maximum motor frequency.
•
Furthermore, respect the following:
1.6.2
Additional Motor Requirements
The Ex-e motor must be approved for operation in
hazardous zones (ATEX Zone 1/21, ATEX Zone 2/22) in
combination with frequency converters. The motor must
be certied for the particular hazardous zone.
The Ex-n motor must be approved for operation in
hazardous zones (ATEX Zone 2/22) in combination with
frequency conveters. The motor must be certied for the
particular harzardous zone.
NOTICE
The motor can be placed in Zone 1/21 or 2/22 according
to motor approval. The frequency converter must always
be installed outside of the hazardous zone.
Only operate explosion-protected 3-phase motors
•
with frequency converters, if the motors are built,
tested, approved, and labelled separately for this
mode.
When the usage of the motor and its thermal
•
protective device are approved for frequency
converter operation, use the MCB 112 for each
ignition protection system for all motor types. For
motors of Ex-e and Ex-n-type ignition protection,
which are OEM-approved for frequency converter
operation in Ex-harzardous areas, consider and
use the requested limitations in the frequency
converter’s ATEX ETR thermal monitoring settings.
The necessary parameters and conditions can be
•
found on the nameplate or the documentation of
the motor. To prevent prohibited temperatures,
the motors are equipped as standard with
thermal winding protection, which has to be
evaluated by a suitable device like MCB 112. The
motors must not be operated as a group drive.

4.1 Operation and Maintenance
The safety function must be tested within regular intervals.
44
Test once per year, or within the maintenance cycle of the
plant. For recurring examinations of electrical systems in
hazardous areas, the inspection period must be kept within
3 years.
The safety test recognises 1 fault (1oo1 - 1 out of 1). One
fault between safety tests can cause loss of protection.
Commissioning test
Test the correct function of the MCB 112 by simulation of
the sensor resistance at terminals T1 and T2. This test must
also be done at maintenance services.
The tripping function is stated in the LCP and can be reset
manually when the failure is removed. Pay attention to the
ambient conditions in chapter 7 Technical Specications.
Short-circuit test: Resistance 20 Ω in parallel to
•
sensor terminals T1, T2.
Line interruption test: Disconnect sensor line at
•
terminal T1 or T2.
Temperature test: Increase resistance 50–1500 Ω
•
to 4000 Ω.
4.1.1 Monitoring Sensor Resistance
1)Short circuit
2)Tripping is not saved, and is not protected against 0 voltage
Illustration 4.1 Monitoring of Sensor Resistance
A current continuously monitors the resistance of the
sensors. In cold state, the resistance is <250 Ω per sensor
(sensor circuit <1.5 kΩ). The output to terminal X44/12 is
high=1. The resistance of the sensor rises rapidly at
nominal response temperature TNF. At a resistance of 3–4
kΩ, output to terminal X44/12 changes to low=0. The
devices also switch o if the sensor or wire short-circuits
(<20 Ω), or if the sensor or wire is interrupted. It switches
back on automatically when the temperature has
decreased by approximately 5 °C.
Depending on the number of sensors, the following
tripping and release temperatures are achieved with
respect to TNF (nominal response temperature of the
sensors):

Selecting Auto Reset/Warning enables automatic restart
of the frequency converter.
The following 2 examples show the possibilities when
using the VLT® PTC Thermistor Card MCB 112.

[4]PTC 1
Alarm
5-15 Terminal 33 Digital Input
If the motor temperature is too high, or if a PTC
failure occurs, the MCB 112 activates the STO.
Terminal 37 goes LOW (active), and digital input
33 goes HIGH (active). This parameter decides the
consequence of the Safe Torque O (STO). With
this selection, the frequency converter coasts and
the LCP displays Alarm 71 PTC 1 Safe Stop. Reset
the frequency converter manually from the LCP,
digital input, or eldbus when the conditions of
the PTC are acceptable again (temperature of
motor has dropped).

Alternatively, parameter 5-19 Terminal 37 Safe Stop could be
set to [5] PTC 1 Warning, which means an automatic restart
when the conditions of the PTC circuit have returned to
acceptable. The selection depends on customer demands.

If the motor temperature is too high, or if a
PTC failure occurs, the MCB 112 activates the
STO of the frequency converter. Terminal 37
goes LOW (active), and digital input 33 goes
HIGH (active). This parameter decides the
consequence of the Safe Torque O (STO).
With this selection, the frequency converter
coasts and the LCP displays Alarm 71 PTC 1Safe Stop. Reset the frequency converter
manually from LCP, digital input, or
when the conditions of the PTC are
acceptable again (the motor temperature has
dropped). An emergency stop can also
activate STO. Terminal 37 goes LOW (active),
but MCB 112 X44/10 does not trigger digital
input 33 as the MCB 112 did not need to
activate the STO. Therefore, digital input 33
remains HIGH (inactive).

Alternatively, parameter 5-19 Terminal 37 Safe Stop could be
set to [7] PTC 1 & Relay Warning. Selecting this option
causes an automatic restart when the conditions of the
PTC circuit and/or emergency stop circuit have returned to
normal. The selection depends on customer demands. Also,
the setting of parameter 5-19 Terminal 37 Safe Stop could
be [8] PTC 1 & Relay A/W or [9] PTC 1 & Relay W/A, which is
a combination of alarms and warnings. The selection
depends on customer demands.
NOTICE
Selections [4] PTC 1 Alarm to [9] PTC 1 & Relay W/A in
parameter 5-19 Terminal 37 Safe Stop are only visible if
the MCB 112 is plugged into the B-option slot.
NOTICE
Take care that the digital input set to [80] PTC Card 1 is
not also congured as thermistor resource (motor
overload protection) in 1-93 Thermistor Resource.

NOTICE
Alarm 11, Motor Thermistor overtemp. relates to
1-93 Thermistor Resource and not to the MCB 112.
Alarm 68, Safe Stop
STO has been activated. To resume normal operation,
apply 24 V DC to terminal 37, then send a reset signal (via
bus, digital I/O, or by pressing [Reset]).
Warning 68, Safe Stop
STO has been activated. Normal operation is resumed
when STO is disabled.
Warning: Automatic Restart.
Alarm 71, PTC 1 Safe Stop
STO has been activated from the MCB 112 (motor too
warm). Normal operation can be resumed when:
The MCB 112 applies 24 V DC to terminal 37
•
again (when the motor temperature reaches an
acceptable level), and
The digital input from the MCB 112 is
•
deactivated.
When that happens, send a reset signal (via bus, digital I/O,
or by pressing [Reset]).
Warning 71, PTC 1 Safe Stop
STO has been activated from the MCB 112 (motor too
warm). Normal operation can be resumed when:
The MCB 112 applies 24 V DC to terminal 37
•
again (when the motor temperature reaches an
acceptable level), and
The digital input from the MCB 112 is
•
deactivated.
Warning: Automatic Restart.
Alarm 72, Dangerous Failure
STO with trip lock. If the combination of STO commands is
unexpected, the dangerous failure-alarm is issued. This
situation occurs if the MCB 112 enables X44/10 without
STO being enabled. Furthermore, if the MCB 112 is the
only device using STO (specied by [4] PTC 1 Alarm or [5]PTC 1 Warning in parameter 5-19 Terminal 37 Safe Stop), an
unexpected combination activates the STO without
activating the X44/10. Table 6.2 summarises the
unexpected combinations that trigger this alarm.

6.2.2 Description of Alarm Word, Warning
Word, and Extended Status Word
If X44/10 is activated in selection [2] Safe Stop Alarm or
[3] Safe Stop Warning, this signal is ignored. However, the
MCB 112 is still able to activate STO.
Example:
[5] PTC 1 Warning is selected in parameter 5-19 Terminal 37
