ous injury.

Do not touch the components of the power unit when the drive is connected to mains.

Do not do any work on live equipment. Before doing any work on internal drive components, follow proper lock out and tag out procedure. Before connecting the drive to mains, make sure that all covers are installed on the drive and the enclosure doors are closed.

VACON® 3000 Enclosed Drive

Operating Guide

D A N G E R

SHOCK HAZARD FROM TERMINALS

The motor terminals U, V, W, the brake resistor terminals, and the DC-link terminals must be treated as live when the drive is

connected to mains. Contact with this voltage can lead to death or serious injury.

Do not touch the motor terminals U, V, W, the brake resistor terminals, or the DC terminals when the drive is connected to

mains. Do not do any work on live equipment. Before doing any work on the drive, follow proper lock out and tag out procedure. Before connecting the drive to mains, make sure that all covers are installed on the drive and the enclosure doors are closed.

D A N G E R

SHOCK HAZARD FROM DC LINK OR EXTERNAL SOURCE

The terminal connections and the components of the drive can be live several minutes after the drive is disconnected from the

mains and the motor has stopped. The load side of the drive can also generate voltage. A contact with this voltage can lead to

death or serious injury.

Disconnect the drive from the mains and make sure that the motor has stopped.

Disconnect the motor. Lock out and tag out the power source to the drive. Make sure that no external source generates unintended voltage during work. To ground the drive input and DC link, close the grounding switch. If there is no grounding switch, make sure that the drive input and DC link are grounded for work. Also ground the motor terminals for work. Wait for the DC-link capacitors to discharge fully before opening the cabinet door or the cover of the AC drive. The discharge time is <7 minutes for AFE drives and <21 minutes for 12-pulse drives. Use a measuring device to make sure that there is no voltage.

Safety

W A R N I N G

SHOCK HAZARD FROM CONTROL TERMINALS

The control terminals can have a dangerous voltage also when the drive is disconnected from mains. A contact with this voltage

can lead to injury.

Make sure that there is no voltage in the control terminals before touching the control terminals.

W A R N I N G

ACCIDENTAL MOTOR START

When there is a power-up, a power break, or a fault reset, the motor starts immediately if the start signal is active, unless the pulse

control for Start/Stop logic is selected. If the parameters, the applications or the software change, the I/O functions (including the

start inputs) can change. If you activate the auto reset function, the motor starts automatically after an automatic fault reset. See

the Application Guide. Failure to ensure that the motor, system, and any attached equipment are ready for start can result in

personal injury or equipment damage.

Disconnect the motor from the drive if an accidental start can be dangerous. Make sure that the equipment is safe to operate

under any condition.

PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT AND APPROVED TOOLS

When doing electrical work on the AC drive, always use personal protective equipment (PPE) and tools which are approved for

work with medium-voltage devices.

2.5 Main Circuit Breaker

The main circuit breaker (MCB) is an important protection device for the drive. If there is a serious fault in the drive, the MCB immediately disconnects the main supply to the drive. To protect personnel and to prevent further damage to the equipment, the main supply must be disconnected immediately with an open or trip command from the drive.

If the drive is supplied through a dedicated transformer, install the MCB on the primary side of the supply transformer (see Illustra-

tion 1).

Illustration 1: Overview of the Drive System

2.5.1 Safety and Protection Requirements

For safety and protection, the MCB must meet the minimum requirements of the specifications of Danfoss medium-voltage drives. The minimum requirements for the MCB are stated in this manual and in the respective MCB specifications, which are available for each medium-voltage drive from Danfoss. The system integrator must make sure that the minimum requirements are met.

The safety requirements for the drive are based on the following standards:

•

EN ISO 13849-1: Safety of machinery, Safety-related parts of control systems, General principles for design, section 6.2.6 Category 3

•

UL347A, Edition 1: Standard for Medium Voltage Power Conversion Equipment

2.5.2 Minimum Requirements for MCB and MCB Control

Requirements

To meet the stipulated safety requirements, Danfoss requires the following:

•

MCB is equipped with 2 independent opening coils.

•

MCB is equipped with an opening coil and an undervoltage coil for monitoring of the control voltage.

•

Route the MCB open and trip commands directly from the drive to the MCB.

Do not route the trip command through any PLC or DCS (distributed control system) which is not certified to meet SIL 3level requirements and to fulfill the given timing requirements.

Opening of the MCB by the drive must be possible at any time. Do not interrupt the open and trip commands, for example, by a local-remote switch in the MCB.

VACON® 3000 Enclosed Drive

Operating Guide

•

Closing the MCB locally is not permitted. When the MCB is in the service position, the drive must have exclusive control of closing the MCB.

•

The maximum opening time of the MCB must never exceed the product or project specific maximum time defined in the MCB specifications.

•

Typical maximum protection and safety trip time for the drive: 60 ms

Recommendations

To meet the stipulated safety requirements, Danfoss recommends the following:

•

Provide an upstream protection coordination scheme which uses the "breaker failure" (ANSI 50BF) signal to trip the upstream breaker automatically, in case the MCB does not open.

•

After a failure has occurred, the upstream breaker must open within the maximum protection and safety trip time.

Product Overview

3 Product Overview

3.1 Intended Use

VACON® 3000 is a liquid-cooled AC drive for stepless speed or torque control of medium-voltage induction motors. VACON® 3000 Enclosed Drive is a complete medium-voltage drive installed in a cabinet.

VACON® 3000 Enclosed Drive is available for industrial applications with motor voltages of 3300 V and 4160 V, and in a power range starting from 2 MW. Basic configurations have a power of 2 MW or 3 MW. These configurations can be paralleled for systems of 4 MW and above.

Two different drive configurations are available:

•

Regenerative, with an active front-end (AFE)

•

Non-regenerative, with a 12-pulse diode front-end (DFE)

Illustration 2: Example of the VACON® 3000 Enclosed Drive

3.2 Product Description

3.2.1 AFE Drive

An example diagram of the regenerative VACON® 3000 Enclosed Drive is shown in Illustration 3. The main components of the drive are:

•

The active front-end (AFE) unit includes 3 or 6 liquid-cooled 1-phase power conversion units (PCU). 3 of the phase modules are installed in parallel to make a 3-phase converter. The AFE converts the supplied AC voltage to DC voltage. It also enables the supply of power to the supply network when the motor is braking.

•

The inverter unit (INU) includes 3 or 6 of the same liquid-cooled 1-phase modules, which are used in the AFE. The INU converts the DC voltage to the AC voltage and frequency supplied to the motor.

•

The LC filter (FLC) limits harmonic current on the supply network.

•

The pre-charge unit (PRC) charges the DC-link capacitors.

•

The AFE and INU control units (CNU-AFE/CNU-INU) are connected to the power conversion units with optical fibers.

•

The auxiliary I/O board (AXU-IOB) provides galvanic separation between I/Os in the MV section and the control unit in the LV section of the cabinet.

The basic VACON® 3000 AFE drive is intended for installations, where the system is supplied by a dedicated transformer and the source impedance is small. These installations are usually on land. The drive includes an LC filter instead of an LCL filter, because the supply side inductance is included in the dedicated transformer.

It is recommended to install a dedicated transformer for the drive. If the drive is not supplied by a dedicated transformer (that is, there are other loads than the drive on the same supply):

3.2.2 12-Pulse Drive

An example diagram of the 12-pulse non-regenerative VACON® 3000 Enclosed Drive is shown in Illustration 4. The main components of the drive are:

•

The diode front-end unit (DFE) is a liquid-cooled 12-pulse power conversion unit (PCU), which changes the supplied AC voltage to DC voltage. The 12-pulse configuration is used to limit harmonics on the supply network.

•

The inverter unit (INU) includes 3 or 6 liquid-cooled 1-phase power conversion units (PCU). 3 of the phase modules are installed in parallel to make a 3-phase converter. The INU converts the DC voltage to the AC voltage and frequency supplied to the motor.

•

The pre-charge unit (PRC) charges the DC-link capacitors.

•

The INU control unit (CNU-INU) is connected to the inverter units with optical fibers.

•

The auxiliary I/O board (AXU-IOB) provides galvanic separation between I/Os in the MV section and the control unit in the LV section of the cabinet.

The 12-pulse DFE must be supplied by a dedicated transformer with two secondary windings. For the full main circuit diagrams, see 11.3.2 VACON® 3000 12-Pulse Main Circuit Diagrams.

5.4.1 Safety in Liquid-cooling

W A R N I N G

POISONOUS COOLANTS

Glycols and inhibitors are poisonous. If touched or consumed, they can cause injury.

Prevent the coolant from getting into the eyes. Do not drink the coolant.

C A U T I O N

HOT COOLANT

Hot coolant can cause burns.

Avoid contact with the hot coolant.

Mechanical Installation

C A U T I O N

PRESSURIZED COOLING SYSTEM

Sudden release of pressure from the cooling system can cause injury.

Be careful when operating the cooling system.

N O T I C E

INSUFFICIENT COOLING CAPACITY

Insufficient cooling can cause the product to become too hot and thus become damaged.

To make sure that the cooling capacity of the cooling system stays sufficient, make sure that the cooling system is vented

and that the coolant circulates properly.

5.4.2 General Information on Liquid Cooling

VACON® 3000 drives are liquid-cooled. The liquid circulation of the drive is connected to a heat-exchanger that cools down the liquid circulating in the cooling elements of the drive. The power modules have aluminum heat sinks, which give good and safe temperature control. Because the cooling elements are made of aluminum, the cooling liquids allowed to be used are inhibited pure water, inhibited demineralized water, or an inhibited mixture of water and glycol.

The inductors of the input and output filters use air-to-liquid heat exchanger units for forced air cooling. The heat exchangers decrease the heat losses to the air and thus decreases the number of fans necessary for cooling the cabinet.

There are two types of cooling systems: open systems and closed systems. An open system has no pressure but the hydrostatic and pumping pressure. It allows free contact between the cooling liquid and

air. Air is continuously dissolved into the cooling liquid. In a closed system, the piping is air-tight and there is a preset pressure inside the pipes. The pipes must be made of metal, or a

specific plastic or rubber that includes an oxygen barrier that limits the diffusion of oxygen. Minimizing of oxygen content in the cooling liquid decreases the risk of corrosion of the metal parts. Closed systems usually have an expansion vessel that allows for a safe change of volume of the cooling liquid due to temperature changes.

Always use a closed system with Danfoss liquid-cooled drives.

5.4.3 Cooling Liquid

5.4.3.1 Quality Requirements for the Purified Water

N O T I C E

DAMAGE TO SYSTEM FROM THE USE OF HYDROCARBONS

Hydrocarbons damage the rubber seals of the cooling system.

Do not use hydrocarbons (for example mineral oil) as coolant. Do not mix hydrocarbons to coolant.

Table 6: Requirements for the Purified Water

Mechanical Installation

5.4.3.2 Purified Water as Coolant

Purified water can be used as coolant if there is no risk of freezing. Freezing water permanently damages the cooling system. Purified water is demineralized, deionized, or distilled water.

Always use an inhibitor Cortec VpCI-649 with 1.0% of volume with purified water.

C A U T I O N

CORROSION HAZARD WITH DRINKING WATER

Some components are made of aluminum, which has limited corrosion resistance against high chloride concentrations. Drinking

water can have a chloride concentration of 250 ppm, which increases the aluminum corrosion rate. High chloride concentration

exposes aluminum especially to pitting corrosion which can damage the system relatively quickly.

Use purified (demineralized, deionized, or distilled) water with corrosion inhibitors.

5.4.3.3 Antifreeze Mix as Coolant

The following antifreeze products are a good general solution for liquid cooling since they provide freeze protection and corrosion protection.

The allowed antifreeze coolants are the following ethylene glycols and propylene glycols.

Ethylene glycols

•

DOWCAL 100

•

Clariant Antifrogen N

Propylene glycols

•

DOWCAL 200

•

Clariant Antifrogen L

These glycols already include corrosion inhibitors. Do not add any other inhibitor. Do not mix different glycol qualities because there can be harmful chemical interactions.

VACON® 3000 Enclosed Drive

Operating Guide

The glycol concentration of the coolant must be 25–55% by volume, according to the specified ambient temperature. Higher concentration reduces cooling capacity. Lower concentration results in biological growth and inadequate amount of corrosion inhibitors. Antifreeze must be mixed with purified water according to 5.4.3.1 Quality Requirements for the Purified Water.

Mechanical Installation

5.4.3.4 Temperature of the Cooling Liquid

To gain full performance of the product, the temperature of the cooling liquid entering the drive components must be a maximum of 43°C (109°F) and above the dew point. While circulating inside the cooling element, the liquid transfers the heat produced by the power semiconductors and other components. The temperature rise of the cooling liquid during the circulation is typically less than 4°C (7.2°F). Typically, more than 95% of the power losses are dissipated in the cooling liquid. It is recommended to equip the cooling circulation with temperature supervision.

The secondary circuit maximum temperature must always be lower than the primary circuit temperature. The temperature difference must be at least 5°C (9°F) with equal flow. The temperature difference is necessary for the correct operation of the heat exchanger.

There are 3 external causes that affect the nominal temperature of the primary circuit:

•

The maximum ambient temperature at the drive installation location.

•

The maximum relative humidity at the drive installation location.

•

The maximum secondary circuit liquid temperature.

All these causes must be examined when calculating the primary circuit temperature. The primary circuit temperature can be different for each installation.

5.4.3.5 Condensation

Condensation must be avoided. Always keep the temperature of the cooling liquid a minimum 2°C (3.6°F) above the dew point. Use the graph in Illustration 10 to see if the conditions (combination of room temperature, humidity, and cooling liquid temperature) are safe for the drive to operate.

The conditions are safe when the point is below the related (cooling liquid temperature) curve. If they are not, decrease the ambient temperature or the relative humidity. Also the cooling liquid temperature can be increased. Note, that if the cooling liquid temperature is increased above the figures in loadability charts, it decreases the nominal output current of the drive. The curves in Illustra-

tion 10 are valid at sea level altitude (1013 mbar/14.69 psi).

If the temperature of the liquid in the secondary circuit is lower than the ambient temperature and the relative humidity is high, condensation can occur on the secondary circuit pipes and the plate heat exchanger in the HX unit. The condensation is not dangerous, but it is not recommended. If there is condensation in the HX unit, it can cause the leak sensor in the cabinet to give a leak alarm. If a leak alarm occurs again and again, install insulation in the secondary circuit pipes and the plate heat exchanger. The insulation stops the condensation and thus prevents the incorrect leak alarms.

Illustration 10: Safe Operating Conditions in Relation to Condensation

Example Safe Operating Conditions

If the ambient temperature is +30°C (+86°F), the relative humidity is 40% and the cooling liquid temperature is +20°C (+68°F, the lowest curve in Illustration 10), then the drive operation conditions are safe.

If the ambient temperature increases to +35°C (+95°F) and the relative humidity to 60%, then the operation conditions of the drive are not safe. To get safe operation conditions, the ambient temperature must be decreased to +28°C (+82°F) or below. If it is not possible to lower the ambient temperature, then the cooling liquid temperature can be increased to +25°C (+77°F) or above.

Example Dew Point and Primary Circuit Temperature

If the ambient temperature and the maximum relative humidity at the drive installation location is known, the dew point chart (see

Illustration 11) can be used to find the correct temperature for the primary circuit.

•

Ambient temperature = 35°C (95°F)

•

Maximum relative humidity = 60%

According to the diagram in Illustration 11, the dew point for the given values is 26°C (78.8°F). Always keep the temperature of the cooling liquid a minimum 2°C (3.6°F) above the dew point. Thus the primary circuit minimum temperature is set to 28°C (82.4°F).

The secondary circuit maximum temperature must always be 5°C (9°F) lower than the primary circuit temperature. Thus, in this example, the secondary circuit temperature must be below 23°C (73.4°F) during operation.

Notice, that these conditions are valid for the starting of the drive. After the start, the temperature inside the cabinet starts to increase and the humidity decreases.

COPPER OR COPPER ALLOY PARTS DAMAGE THE SYSTEM

Using copper or copper alloy pipes or parts in contact with the cooling liquid damages the system.
