qualied personnel are allowed to install and operate this
equipment.
Qualied personnel are dened as trained sta, who are

systems, and circuits in accordance with pertinent laws and
regulations. Additionally, the qualied personnel must be
familiar with the instructions and safety measures
described in these operating instructions.
Safety Precautions
2.2
WARNING
HIGH VOLTAGE
Frequency converters contain high voltage when
connected to AC mains input power. Failure to perform
installation, start-up, and maintenance by qualied
personnel could result in death or serious injury.
Only qualied personnel are permitted to
•
perform installation, start-up, and maintenance.
WARNING
UNINTENDED START
When the frequency converter is connected to AC mains,
DC supply, or load sharing, the motor can 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 with an external
switch, a eldbus command, an input reference signal
from the LCP or LOP, via remote operation using a
software tool, or after a cleared fault condition.
To prevent unintended motor start:
Disconnect the frequency converter from mains.
•
Press [O/Reset] on the LCP before
•
programming parameters.
Ensure that the frequency converter, motor, and
•
any driven equipment are fully wired and
assembled when the frequency converter is
connected to AC mains, DC supply, or load
sharing.
WARNING
DISCHARGE TIME
The frequency converter contains DC-link capacitors,
which can remain charged even when the frequency
converter is not powered. High voltage can be present
even when the warning LED indicator lights are o.
Failure to wait the specied time after power has been
removed before performing service or repair work can
result in death or serious injury.
Stop the motor.
•
Disconnect AC mains and remote DC-link power
•
supplies, including battery back-ups, UPS, and
DC-link connections to other frequency
converters.
Disconnect or lock PM motor.
•
Wait for the capacitors to discharge fully. The
•
minimum duration of waiting time is specied
in Table 2.1.
Before performing any service or repair work,
•
use an appropriate voltage measuring device to
make sure that the capacitors are fully
discharged.
According to UL 508C, the VLT® DriveMotor FCP 106 and
VLT® DriveMotor FCM 106 do not support the use of
delta grounded grid.
Using the VLT® DriveMotor FCP 106 or VLT® DriveMotor
FCM 106 on a delta grounded grid may cause death or
serious injury.
To avoid the risk:
Do not install VLT® DriveMotor FCP 106 and
•
VLT® DriveMotor FCM 106 on a delta grounded
grid.
WARNING
EQUIPMENT HAZARD
Contact with rotating shafts and electrical equipment
can result in death or serious injury.
Ensure that only trained and qualied personnel
•
perform installation, start-up, and maintenance.
Ensure that electrical work conforms to national
•
and local electrical codes.
Follow the procedures in this guide.
•
WARNING
LEAKAGE CURRENT HAZARD
Follow national and local codes regarding protective
earthing (PE) of equipment with a leakage current
exceeding 3.5 mA. Frequency converter technology
implies high frequency switching at high power. This
switching generates a leakage current in the ground
connection. A fault current in the frequency converter at
the output power terminals can contain a DC
component. The DC component can charge the lter
capacitors and cause a transient ground current. The
ground leakage current depends on various system
congurations including RFI ltering, screened motor
cables, and frequency converter power. EN/IEC 61800-5-1
(Power Drive System Product Standard) requires special
care because the leakage current exceeds 3.5 mA. See EN
60364-5-54 section 543.7 for further information.
Ensure correct grounding of the equipment by a
•
certied electrical installer.
Grounding must be reinforced in one of the
•
following ways:
-Ensure that the ground wire has a
cross-section of at least 10 mm2 (7
AWG).
-Ensure that 2 separate ground wires
are used, both complying with the
dimensioning rules.
NOTICE
HIGH ALTITUDES
For installation at altitudes above 2000 m (6562 ft),

WARNING
UNINTENDED MOTOR ROTATION
WINDMILLING
Unintended rotation of permanent magnet motors
creates voltage and can charge the unit, resulting in
death, serious injury, or equipment damage.
This product can cause a DC current in the protective
conductor. Failure to follow the precautions can lead to
personal injury or property damage.
Take the following precautions:
When using a residual current device (RCD) for
•
extra protection, use only an RCD of Type B
(time delayed) on the supply side of this
product.
Protective earthing (PE) of the frequency
•
converter and the use of RCDs must always
follow national and local regulations.

WARNING
GROUNDING HAZARD
22
For operator safety, it is important to ground the
frequency converter properly in accordance with national
and local electrical codes, as well as the instructions in
this manual. Ground currents are higher than 3.5 mA.
Failure to ground the frequency converter properly could
result in death or serious injury.
It is the responsibility of the user, or certied electrical
installer, to ensure correct grounding of the equipment
according to national, and local electrical codes and
standards.

Mechanical InstallationOperating Instructions
3.3 Mounting
3.3.1 Introduction
There are several mounting alternatives.
FCM 106
The frequency converter is mounted onto the motor at
delivery. The combined unit is known as the
DriveMotor.Installation procedure:
1.Mount the DriveMotor, see chapter 3.3.4 Mountthe DriveMotor.
2.Perform the electrical installation, starting with
chapter 4.7.1 Connecting to Mains.
Go directly to chapter 3.3.4 Mount the DriveMotor.
FCP 106
Mount the frequency converter onto the adapter plate,
which is:
Fastened to a at surface beside the motor, or
•
Mounted directly onto the motor. When
•
assembled, the combined frequency converter
and motor is known as the DriveMotor.
Installation procedure:
1.Prepare the gasket and adapter plate, see
chapter 3.3.2 Prepare Gasket and
chapter 3.3.3 Prepare Adapter Plate.
2.Connect the frequency converter to the motor.
See chapter 4.6.1 Connect FCP 106 to Motor. The
combined unit is then known as the DriveMotor.
3.Mount the DriveMotor, see chapter 3.3.4 Mountthe DriveMotor.
4.Perform the remaining electrical installation, see
chapter 4.7.1 Connecting to Mains.
3.3.2 Prepare Gasket
Preparation of a gasket applies only when mounting an
FCP 106 onto a motor.
Mounting of FCP 106 onto a motor requires tting a
customised gasket. The gasket ts between the motor
adapter plate and the motor.
No gasket is supplied with the FCP 106.
Therefore, before installation, design and test a gasket to
full the ingress protection requirement (for example IP55,
IP54, or Type 3R).
Requirements for gasket:
Maintain the ground connection between
•
frequency converter and motor. The frequency
converter is grounded to the motor adapter plate.
Use a wire connection between motor and
frequency converter and ensure metallic contact
between the motor adapter plate and motor.
Use a UL recognised material for the gasket,
•
when UL listing or recognition is required for the
assembled product.
Illustration 3.4 Installation Orientation, IP54/UL Type 3R
Mount the DriveMotor with adequate access for routine
maintenance. Observe the recommended clearances, see
chapter 7 Specications. A minimum of 0.75 m clearance
around the motor is recommended, both for working
access and adequate airow at the motor fan inlet. See
also chapter 7.1 Clearances, Dimensions and Weights.
Where more than 1 DriveMotor are mounted close by,
ensure that there is no recirculation of exhausted warm air.
Foundations must be solid, rigid, and level.
NOTICE
Electrical installation
Do not remove the top foil on the frequency converter,
as this foil is a part of the protective arrangements.
Fitting pinions, pulleys, and couplings
Drill pinions, pulleys, and couplings to standard limits and
t on the shaft with a screwing motion. Ensure correct
guarding of all moving parts.
NOTICE
Tapping of ttings onto the motor shaft, with a hammer
or mallet, causes bearing damage. This damage results in
an increase in bearing noise and a signicant reduction
in bearing life.
3.3.5 Shaft Alignment
When the application requires direct coupling, the shafts
must be correctly aligned in all 3 planes. Incorrect
alignment can be a major source of noise, vibration, and
reduced bearing life.
Make allowance for shaft end
in both axial and vertical planes. Flexible drive couplings
are preferred.
