1.3 Danger

The components of the power unit of VACON® 20 CP drives are live when the drive is connected to mains potential. Coming into contact with this voltage is extremely dangerous and may cause death or severe injury.
®
The motor terminals (U, V, W) are live when VACON the mains, even if the motor is not running.
After disconnecting the AC drive from the mains, wait until the indicators on the keypad go out (if no keypad is attached, see the indicators on the cover). Wait an
additional 30 seconds before starting any work on the connections of VACON Cold Plate Drive. After expiration of this time, use measuring equipment to abso­lutely ensure that no
voltage is present.
Always ensure absence of voltage before
starting any electrical work!
The control I/O-terminals are isolated from the mains potential. However, the
relay outputs and other I/O-terminals may have a dangerous control voltage
®
present even when VACON
20 CP Drive is disconnected from the mains.
During a coast stop (see the Application Manual), the motor is still generating voltage to the drive. Therefore, do not touch the components of the AC drive before the motor has completely stopped. Wait until the indicators on the keypad go out (if no keypad is attached, see the indicators on the cover). Wait an addi­tional 30 seconds before starting any work on the drive.

1.5 Warnings

VACON® 20 CP AC drive is meant for fixed installations only.
Only DVC A circuits (Decisive Voltage Class A, according to IEC 61800-5-1) are allowed to be connected to the control unit. This advice aims to protect both the drive and the
client-application. VACON resulting from unsafe connections of external circuits to the drive. See 1.7 for more details.
Do not perform any measurements when the AC drive is connected to the mains.
®
is not responsible for direct or consequential damages
The touch current of VACON
®
20 CP drives exceeds 3.5mA AC. According to standard
EN61800-5-1, a reinforced protective ground connection must be ensured. See 1.6.
If the AC drive is used as a part of a machine, the machine manufacturer is responsible for providing the machine with a supply disconnecting device (EN 60204-1). See 4.1
®
Only spare parts supplied by VACON
can be used.
At power-up, power brake or fault reset, the motor will start immediately if the start signal is active, unless the pulse control for
Start/Stop logic has been selected
. Furthermore, the I/O functionalities (including start inputs) may change if parameters, applications or software are changed. Disconnect, therefore, the motor if an unex­pected start can cause danger. This is valid only if STO inputs are energized. For preven­tion on unexpected restart, use appropriate safety relay connected to the STO inputs.
The motor starts automatically after automatic fault reset if the autoreset function is activated. See the Application Manual for more detailed information. This is valid only if STO inputs are energized. For prevention on unexpected restart, use appropriate safety relay connected to the STO inputs.
Before performing any measurement on the motor or the motor cable, disconnect the motor cable from the AC drive.
Do not perform any voltage withstand test on any part of VACON
®
20 CP. The tests shall be performed according to a specific procedure. Ignoring this procedure may damage the product.
Do not touch the components on the circuit boards. Static voltage discharge may dam­age the components.
Check that the EMC level of the AC drive corresponds to the requirements of your sup­ply network.
In a domestic environment, this product may cause radio interference, in which case supplementary mitigation measures may be required.
Do not use the internal Brake Resistor in installations above 2000 m altitude.

1.6 Grounding and earth fault protection

CAUTION!
The VACON® 20 CP AC drive must always be earthed with an grounding conductor connected to the grounding terminal marked with .
Since the touch current exceeds 3.5 mA AC (for the three-phase version), according to EN61800-5­1, the drive shall have a fixed connection and provision of an additional terminal for a second protective grounding conductor of the same cross-sectional area as the original protective grounding conductor.
Three screws (for the three-phase version) are provided for: the ORIGINAL protective grounding conductor, the SECOND protective conductor and the MOTOR protective conductor (the customer can choose the screw for each one). See Figure 1 for the location of the three screws in the two possible options available.
Figure 1. Protective grounding connections MS2 and MS3, three-phase version.
®
In VACON
20 CP, the phase conductor and the corresponding protective grounding conductor can
be of the same cross-sectional area, provided they are made of the same metal (because the cross­sectional area of the phase conductor is less than 16 mm
Local contacts: https://www.danfoss.com/en/contact-us/contacts-list/

).
vacon • 10 Safety
Figure 2. Protective grounding connections MS2, single-phase version.
The cross-sectional area of every protective grounding conductor which does not form a part of the supply cable or cable enclosure shall, in any case, be not less than:
2
•2.5 mm
•4 mm
if mechanical protection is provided or
2
if mechanical protection is not provided. For cord-connected equipment, provisions shall be made so that the protective grounding conductor in the cord shall, in the case of failure of the strain-relief mechanism, be the last conductor to be interrupted.
However, always follow the local regulations for the minimum size of the protective grounding conductor.
NOTE: Due to the high capacitive currents present in the AC drive, fault current protective switches
may not function properly.

3.2 Cooling

The AC drive produces heat in operation due to the energy dissipation of the electronic components (rectifier and IGBT) and is cooled by a heatsink via the cold plate of the AC drive. The capacity to dissipate this heat mainly depends on the size of the heatsink surface, the environment temperature and the heat transmission resistance. An increase of the heat transmission rate can only be realized to a certain extent by increasing the surface of the heatsink. An additional increase of the heat dissipation by increasing the heatsink is not possible. The AC drive should be mounted with the cold plate on a heatsink with lowest thermal resistance possible.

3.3 Environment temperature

The drive environment temperature must not exceed 70 °C (158 °F) for the drive installed location. The aluminium panel of the back of the drive is called “cold plate”. The cold plate should never exceed 85 °C (185 °F).
The drive may be damaged if the temperature of the cooling plate exceeds speci­fied tolerance level. Excessive heat can also shorten the performance life of the various AC drive components.

3.4 Heatsink assembly instructions

The VACON® 20 CP AC drives are designed for installation on surfaces which comply with the specifications listed in this paragraph.
The heatsink surface that is in contact with the AC drive cold plate must be free from dirt and particles. The mating surface flatness must not exceed 50m (DIN EN ISO 1101) across the entire mating surface, and the roughness less than 6.3 m(DIN EN ISO 4287). The maximum peak-valley height of the surface shall not exceed 10 m (DIN EN ISO 4287).
Apply a thermal compound between the heatsink and the AC drive cooling mating surface. The thermal paste assists the drive heat dissipation. We recommend the thermal compounds listed in the following table:

3.7 Dimensioning an external heatsink

This paragraph describes a useful procedure to select a suitable heatsink for VACON® 20 CP drives. The heatsinks are devices that enhance heat dissipation from a hot surface, usually the case of a
heat generating component, to a cooler ambient, usually air. For the following discussion, air is assumed to be the cooling fluid. The primary purpose of a heatsink is to maintain the device temperature below the maximum allowable specified by the device manufacturers. Before discussing the heatsink selection process, it is necessary to define common terms, notations and definitions and establish the concept of a thermal circuit.
Notations and definitions of the terms are as follows:
Symbol Description

Cold plate loss: see Table 14, Table 15 or Table 16 expressed in W Maximum cold plate temperature expressed in °K (358 °K = 85°C) heatsink ambient temperature expressed in °K(°K = °C + 273) Equivalent thermal resistance [K/W] of the cold plate. Thermal resistance of the heatsink [K/W]
Table 17. Terms and definitions for the thermal model.
The purpose of this paragraph is to select an external heatsink by calculating its thermal resistance. The heat transfer principle from the cold plate to the heatsink ambient air is shown in Figure 13.
Figure 13. Thermal equivalent circuit.
The formula to calculate the maximum thermal resistance of the heatsink is as follows:

for VACON® 20
CP
Note: remember that the heatsink cooling capacity can be reduced over time due to dirt.
In order to choose an heatsink from a catalogue please consider that usually the reported heat resistances are measured under free convection conditions. In this case the heatsink has to be oversized with respect to the cold plate dimensions, otherwise an additional fan must be used to reduce the heatsink resistance and its dimensions. Most heatsink manufacturers give correction factors according to various air flow speeds.
The designing factors which influence the thermal performances of an heatsink are as follows:
Spreading resistance: Spreading resistance occurs when thermal energy is transferred from a small area to a larger area in a substance with finite thermal conductivity. In a heatsink, this means that heat does not distribute uniformly through the heatsink base. The spreading resis­tance phenomenon is shown by how the heat travels from the heat source location and causes a large temperature gradient between the heat source and the edges of the heatsink. This means that some fins are at a lower temperature than if the heat source were uniform across the base of the heatsink. This non uniformity increases the heatsink's effective thermal resistance.
Heatsink manufacturer dimensioning data: the heatsink thermal resistance given in a cata- logue is measured on a temperature sink to ambient differential (T) and since Rhs under free
convection depends on T with the power law Rth ~ T
-0.25
(with laminar flow), a correction fac­tor must be considered when the operating T is different from what used by the heatsink man­ufacturer in the measurement.
Surface finishing: the heatsink dissipation depends on the type of surface finishing of heat­sink itself (anodized/black surfaces dissipate differently from polished surfaces).
Local contacts: https://www.danfoss.com/en/contact-us/contacts-list/
vacon • 28 Mounting
Heatsink attachment/orientation: heatsink attachment/orientation plays a significant role under natural convection. It is recommended that the heatsink be installed to orient the fins in a direction that will not block air movement under natural convection. Based practical experi­ence, if the heatsink is oriented in a wrong way, the thermal performance will be approximately 25% worse under natural convection condition.
Taking account of the above, we recommend that the calculated R
is multiplied
HS
by 0.7 to obtain a resistance value with a reasonable safety margin in order to ensure tripless drive operation.
Note: to study the heat transfer in other cooling media of different geometry (e.g. cooling plate without fins), please contact your local distributor to receive support in dimensioning method.

When delivered from the factory, the control unit of the AC drive contains the standard controlling interface - the control terminals of the control board - unless otherwise specifically ordered. In the following pages you will find the arrangement of the control I/O and the relay terminals, the general wiring diagram and the control signal descriptions.
The control board can be powered externally by connecting an external power source (about 130­150mA at 24VDC are needed to supply the control board without keypad, option board or other loads) between terminal #6 and GND, see chapter 5.1.2. To ensure that the external supply works with any configurations we recommend to use an external supply of +24VDC ±10%, 1000mA overcurrent protected.
This voltage is sufficient for parameter setting and for keeping the control unit active. Note however that the values of the measurements of the main circuit (e.g. DC-link voltage, unit temperature) are not available when the mains is not connected.
In addition to the internal fan, VACON connector (see 10 in the Figure 21, Figure 22 and Figure 23) for improved air flow and system cooling. The power supply also has automatic thermal switching on/off control: it automatically switches on/off depending on internal cold plate temperature.

5.1.7 Selection of terminal functions with dip switches

VACON
®
20 Cold Plate drive embodies four so-called switches that allow for two functional selections each. The shadowed terminals in Table 31 can be functionally modified with the dip switches.
The switches have two positions: 0 and 1. See Figure 30 to locate the switches and make appropriate selections for your requirements.
Figure 30. Dip switches
5.1.7.1
Switch SW1
The digital inputs (terminals 8-10 and 14-16) on the standard I/O board can be isolated from ground by setting the
dip switch SW1 to position ‘1’. See Figure 30. Locate the switch and set it in the
desired position. The switch in the position “0” means that the common of digital input have been connected to the ground.The default position is “0”.
5.1.7.2
Switches SW2 and SW3
Analogue inputs can be used as either current inputs or voltage inputs. The signal type is selected with two switches on the control board.
The switch SW2 is related to analogue input AI1. In position “1” the analogue input AI1 works in voltage mode. In position “0” the analogue input works in current mode. The default position for SW2 is “1”.
The voltage range is 0...10V and the current is 0/4.....20 mA.
The switch SW3 is related to analogue input AI2. In the position “1” the analogue input AI2 works in voltage mode. In the position “0” the analogue input works in current mode. The default position for SW3 is “0”.
The voltage range is 0...10V and the current is 0/4.....20 mA.
5.1.7.3
Switch SW4
The switch SW4 is related to the RS485 connection. It’s used for bus termination. The bus termination must be set to the first and to the last device on the network. The switch SW4 in position “0” means that termination resistance is connected and the termination of the bus has been set. If the VACON
®
20 CP is the last device on the net, this switch must be set to “0” position. The default
position for SW4 is “0”.

5.2 Fieldbus connection

Modbus is a communication protocol developed by Modicon systems. In other words, it is a way of sending information between electronic devices. The device requesting the information is called the Modbus Master and the devices supplying information are Modbus Slaves. In a standard Modbus network, there is one Master and up to 247 Slaves, each with a unique Slave Address from 1 to 247. The Master can also write information to the Slaves. Modbus is typically used to transmit signals from instrumentation and control devices back to a main controller or data gathering system.
The Modbus communication interface is built around messages. The format of these Modbus messages is independent of the type of physical interface used. The same protocol can be used regardless of the connection type. Thanks to this, Modbus allows for the easy upgrade of the hardware structure of an industrial network, without the need for significant changes in the software. A device can also communicate with several Modbus nodes at once, although they are connected with different interface types, without the need to use a different protocol for every connection.
Figure 31. Basic structure of Modbus frame.
On simple interfaces such as RS485, the Modbus messages are sent in plain form over the network. In this case the network is dedicated to Modbus.
Each Modbus message has the same structure. Four basic elements are present in each message. The sequence of these elements is the same for all messages, to make it easy to parse the content of the Modbus message. A conversation is always started by a master in the Modbus network. A Modbus master sends a message and — depending on the contents of the message — a slave takes action and responds to it. There can be more masters in a Modbus network. The address in the message header is used to define which device should respond to a message. All other nodes on the Modbus network ignore the message if the address field doesn't match their own address.

5.2.2 Preparation for use through RS485

Strip about 15 mm of the RS485 cable (see specification on Table 36) and cut off the grey cable shield. Remember to do this for both bus cables (except for the last device). Leave no more than 10 mm of the cable outside the terminal block and strip the cables at about 5 mm to fit in the terminals. See picture below.
1
2 3
Also strip the cable now at such a distance from the terminal that you can fix it to the enclosure with the grounding clamp. Strip the cable at a maximum length of 15 mm. Do not strip the aluminium cable shield!
Then connect the cable to its appropriate terminals on VACON® 20 CP AC drive standard terminal block, terminals A and B (A = negative, B = positive).
Using the cable clamp included in the supply of the drive, ground the shield of the RS485 cable to the enclosure of the AC drive.
If VACON® 20 Cold Plate drive is the last device on the bus, the bus termination must be set. Locate the
switches to the right of the control terminals (see Figure 30) and turn the SW4 switch to position “0”. Biasing is built in the termination resistor.

Local contacts: https://www.danfoss.com/en/contact-us/contacts-list/
NOTE: When planning the cable runs, remember to keep the distance between the fieldbus cable and the motor cable at a minimum of 30 cm.
The bus termination must be set for the first and the last device of the fieldbus line. We recommend that the first device terminated is the Master device.

6.3 Running the motor

MOTOR RUN CHECK LIST
Before starting the motor, check that the motor is mounted properly and ensure that the machine connected to the motor allows the motor to be started.
Set the maximum motor speed (frequency) according to the motor and the machine connected to it.
Before reversing the motor make sure that this can be done safely.
Make sure that no power correction capacitors are connected to the motor cable.
Make sure that the motor terminals are not connected to mains potential.

6.3.1 Cable and motor insulation checks

1. Motor cable insulation checks Disconnect the motor cable from terminals U, V and W of the AC drive and from the motor. Measure the insulation resistance of the motor cable between each phase conductor as well as between each phase conductor and the protective ground conductor. The insulation resistance must be >1M at ambient temperature of 20°C.
2. Mains cable insulation checks Disconnect the mains cable from terminals L1 (L), L2 (N) and L3 of the AC drive and from the mains. Measure the insulation resistance of the mains cable between each phase conductor as well as between each phase conductor and the protective ground conductor. The insulation resistance must be >1Mat ambient temperature of 20°C
3. Motor insulation checks Disconnect the motor cable from the motor and open the bridging connections in the motor connection box. Measure the insulation resistance of each motor winding. The measurement voltage must equal at least the motor nominal voltage but not exceed 1000 V. The insulation resistance must be >1M at ambient temperature of 20°C.

6.4.1 Recharging capacitors in stored units

When complete AC Drive units are stored without any voltage being applied to them, the recharging of the capacitors should be done at least every 12 months, by connecting the power supply to the unit and then keeping the unit powered up for a minimum of one hour.
If the storing time is much longer than one year, the recharging of the capacitors has to be done in a way that possible high leakage current through the capacitors is limited. The best alternative is to use a DC-power supply with an adjustable current limit. The current limit has to be set, for example, to 50...200mA and the DC-power supply has to be connected to the DC+/DC- terminals of the DC link.
Power up instruction for MS02 (three-phase) unit without DC+/DC- terminals:
The DC supply is connected between the two input phases L1 and L2.
The DC voltage has to be adjusted up to the nominal DC voltage level of the unit (1.35xUn AC) and has to be supplied for at least one hour.
If a DC voltage is not available and the unit has been stored much longer than one year de­energized, consult the manufacturer before connecting the power.

8.4.2 Resetting fault

When a fault appears and the drive stops examine the cause of the fault, perform the action advised in the Fault Tracing paragraph and reset the fault by pressing the RESET button.

8.4.3 Local/Remote control button

The LOC/REM button is used for two functions: to quickly access the Control page and to easily change between the Local (Keypad) and Remote control places.
Control places
The
control place is the source of control where the drive can be started and stopped. Every
control place has its own parameter for selecting the frequency reference source. In the VACON 20 CP drive, the Local control place is always the keypad. The Remote control place is determined by parameter (I/O or Fieldbus). The selected control place can be seen on the status bar of the keypad.
Remote control place
I/O and Fieldbus can be used as remote control places.
®
Local control
Keypad is always used as control place while in local control. Local control has higher priority than remote control. Switching between Local and Remote Control can be done by pressing the LOC/ REM-button on the keypad.

9. SAFE TORQUE OFF

This chapter describes the Safe Torque Off (STO) function which is a functional safety feature
®
present in VACON
20 CP drive products as standard. This function is available only in the three-
phase version.

9.1 General description

The STO function brings the motor in no-torque-state as defined by 4.2.2.2 of the IEC 61800-5-2:
“Power that can cause rotation (or motion in the case of a linear motor) is not applied to the motor. The Power Drive System (Safety Related) will not provide energy to the motor which can generate torque (or force in the case of a linear motor).”
Therefore, the STO function is suitable for applications that rely on the immediate removal of power to the actuator, resulting in an uncontrolled coast to stop (activated by an STO demand). Additional protective measures need to be applied when an application requires a different stop method.

9.2 Warnings

Designing of safety-related systems requires specialist knowledge and skills. Only qualified people are permitted to install and set up the STO function. The use of STO does not itself ensure safety. An overall risk evaluation is required for ensuring that the commissioned system is safe. Safety devices must be correctly incorporated into the entire system which must be designed in compliance with all relevant standards within the field of industry.
The information in this manual provides guidance on the use of the STO function. This information is in compliance with accepted practice and regulations at the time of writing. However, the end product/system designer is responsible for ensuring that the end-system is safe and in compliance with relevant regulations.
When a permanent magnet motor is used and in case of a multiple IGBT power semiconductor failure, when the STO option energizes the drive outputs to the off state, the drive system may still provide an alignment torque which maximally rotates the motor shaft by 180°/p (where p is the number of poles of the motor) before the torque production ceases.
Electronic means and contactors are not adequate for protection against electric shock. The Safe Torque Off function does not disconnect the voltage or the mains from the drive. Therefore hazardous voltages may still be present on the motor. If electrical or maintenance work has to be carried out on electrical parts of the drive or the motor, the drive has to be completely isolated from the main supply, e.g. using an external supply disconnecting switch (see EN60204-1 section 5.3).
This safety function corresponds to an uncontrolled stop in accordance with stop category 0 of IEC 60204-1. The STO function does not comply with Emergency Switching Off according to IEC 60204-1 (no galvanic insulation from the Mains in case the motor is stopped).
The STO function is not a prevention of unexpected start-up. To fulfil those requirements, additional external components are required according to appropriate standards and application requirements.
In circumstances where external influences (e.g. falling of suspended loads) are present additional measures (e.g. mechanical brakes) may be necessary to prevent any hazard.
STO shall not be used as a control for starting or stopping the drive.

9.3 Standards

The STO function has been designed for use in accordance with the following standards:
Standards
IEC 61508, Parts 1-7
IEC 61800-5-2
IEC 62061 ISO 13849-1 IEC 60204-1
Table 51. Safety Standards.
The STO function has to be applied correctly to achieve the desired level of operational safety. Four different levels are allowed, depending on the use of the STO signals (see the following table).
STO inputs STO feedback Cat. PL SIL

9.4 The principle of STO

The STO functionality, such as the technical principles and data (wiring examples and commissioning) will be described in this chapter.
In VACON to the inverter circuit.
The inverter power stage is disabled through redundant disabling paths which start from the two separated and galvanically isolated STO inputs (S1-G1, S2-G2 in Figure 50). In addition, an isolated output feedback is generated to improve the diagnostics of the STO function and to achieve a better safety capability (F+, F- terminals). The values assumed by the STO output feedback are indicated in the following table:

9.5.1 Safety Capability Cat. 4 / PL e / SIL 3

For this safety capability, an external safety device must be installed. This must be used to dynamically activate the STO inputs and to monitor the STO output feedback.
The STO inputs are dynamically used when they do not commute together (static use), but according to the following picture (where the inputs are released with delay in turn). The dynamic use of the STO inputs allows detecting faults that may otherwise accumulate.
Figure 52.
An emergency push button connected to the STO inputs does not assure the same quality, because no fault detection is performed at a sufficient proof test interval (once a day is recommended).
The external safety device, which forces the STO inputs and evaluates the STO output feedback, has to be a safe device and it has to fulfil the requirements of the specific application.
A simple switch cannot be used in this case!

The external device has to monitor the STO function in accordance with theTable 54. The device has to periodically de-energize the STO inputs and it has to verify that the STO output feedback assumes the expected value.
Any difference between the expected and the real value has to be considered as a failure and has to drive the system into a Safe State. In case of failure, check the wiring. If the fault recognized by the external safety device persists, the drive will have to be replaced/repaired.

9.5.2 Safety Capability Cat. 3 / PL e / SIL 3

The safety capability is reduced to Cat. 3 / PL e / SIL 3 if the STO inputs are statically used (which means they are forced to commute together).
Both STO inputs and the STO feedback have to be used. The same warnings and cabling instruction as 9.5.1 apply, except that the proof test interval has to be at least once every three months.

9.5.3 Safety Capability Cat. 2 / PL d / SIL 2

The safety capability is reduced to Cat. 2 / PL d / SIL 2 if the STO inputs are connected in parallel (no redundancy of the STO inputs).
The STO feedback has to be used. The same warnings as 9.5.1 apply, except that the proof test interval has to be at least once a year. The picture below shows an example of connection for the STO function. The external device has to be connected with 4 wires to the drive.

9.5.4 Safety Capability Cat. 1 / PL c / SIL 1

Without any automatic monitoring of STO output feedback, the safety capability is reduced to Cat. 1 / PL c / SIL 1. The STO inputs (which can be connected in parallel) must be supplied by a safety push button or a safety relay.
The choice of using the STO inputs (without the automatic monitoring of the output feedback) does not allow the other safety capabilities to be achieved.
The standards for functional safety require that functional proof tests are performed on the equipment at user-defined intervals. Therefore, this safety capability can be achieved, as long as the STO function is manually monitored at the proof test interval determined by the specific application (once a year can be acceptable).
This safety capability can be achieved by connecting in parallel the STO inputs exter­nally and by ignoring the use of the STO output feedback.
The picture below shows an example of connection for the STO function. A switch (a safety push button or a safety relay) may be connected with 2 wires to the drive.
When the contacts of the switch are opened, the STO is demanded, the drive indicates F30 (= "Safe Torque Off") and the motor stops by coasting.

9.6 Commissioning

9.6.1 General wiring instructions

Protect the STO cabling with shielding or an enclosure to exclude external damage.
Wire ferrules are highly recommended for all STO signals (inputs and feedback).
The wiring should be done according to the general wiring instructions for the specific product. A shielded cable is required. In addition, the voltage drop from the supply point to the load shall not exceed 5% [EN 60204-1 part 12.5].
The following table indicates examples of cables to be used.

Table 57. Cable types required to meet the standards. (*) Additional wires are needed for restarting the
drive after each STO demand.

9.6.2 Checklist for commissioning

Follow the checklist shown in the table below for the steps required to use the STO function.
Carry out a risk assessment of the system to ensure that the use of the STO function is safe and according to the local regulations
Include in the assessment an examination of whether the use of external devices, such as a mechanical brake, are required.
Check if the switch (if used) has been chosen according to the required safety performance target (SIL/PL/Category) set during the risk evaluation
Check if the external device for automatic monitoring of the STO output feedback (if used) has been chosen in accordance with the specific application
Check if the reset function with the STO function (if used) is edge sensitive.
The shaft of a permanent magnet motor might, in an IGBT fault situation, still provide energy before the torque production ceases. This may result in a jerk of max. 180° electrically. Ensure that the system is designed in such a way that this can be accepted.
Check if the degree of protection of the enclosure is at least IP54.
Check if the recommendations on EMC for cables have been followed.
Check if the system has been designed in such a way that enabling of the drive through STO inputs will not lead to an unexpected start of the drive
Table 58. Checklist for commissioning of STO.
Local contacts: https://www.danfoss.com/en/contact-us/contacts-list/
Safe Torque Off vacon • 99
Check if only approved units and parts have been used.
Set up a routine to ensure that the functionality of the STO function is being checked at regular intervals.
Table 58. Checklist for commissioning of STO.

9.7 Parameters and fault tracing

There are no parameters for the STO function itself.
Before testing the STO function, make sure that the checklist (Table 58) is inspected and completed.
When STO function is demanded, the drive always generates a fault (“F30”) and the motor stops by coasting.
In the application the STO state can be indicated using a digital output.
To re-enable motor operation, after the STO state, it is necessary to perform the following steps:
Release the switch or the external device (“F30” is displayed even after this has been released).
Reset the fault (through a digital input or from the keypad).
It is possible that a new start command is required for the restart (depending on the application and your parameter settings).

9.8 Maintenance and diagnostics

If any service or repair has to be conducted on the drive installed, please inspect the checklist given in Table 58.
During maintenance breaks, or in case of service/repair, ALWAYS make sure that the STO function is available and fully functional by testing it.
The STO function or the STO input/output terminals do not need any maintenance. The following table shows faults that may be generated by the software that monitors the hardware
related to the STO safety function. If you detect any failure in safety functions, including STO, contact your local distributor.
