Drive software version
This product is supplied with the latest software version. If this drive is to be connected to an existing system or machine,
all drive software versions should be verified to confirm the same functionality as drives of the same model already
present. This may also apply to drives returned from a Control Techniques Service Centre or Repair Centre. If there is
any doubt please contact the supplier of the product.
The software version of the drive can be checked by looking at Pr 11.29 and Pr 11.34. This takes the form of xx.yy.zz
where Pr 11.29 displays xx.yy and Pr 11.34 displays zz. (e.g. for software version 01.01.00, Pr 11.29 = 1.01 and Pr 11.34
displays 0).
The software version of the Building Automation interface can be checked by looking at Pr 17.02 and Pr 17.51. The
software version takes the form of xx.yy.zz, where Pr 17.02 displays xx.yy and Pr 17.51 displays zz.
Environmental statement
Control Techniques is committed to minimising the environmental impacts of its manufacturing operations and of its
products throughout their life cycle. To this end, we operate an Environmental Management System (EMS) which is
certified to the International Standard ISO 14001. Further information on the EMS, our Environmental Policy and other
relevant information is available on request, or can be found at www.greendrives.com.
The electronic variable-speed drives manufactured by Control Techniques have the potential to save energy and
(through increased machine/process efficiency) reduce raw material consumption and scrap throughout their long
working lifetime. In typical applications, these positive environmental effects far outweigh the negative impacts of product
manufacture and end-of-life disposal.
Nevertheless, when the products eventually reach the end of their useful life, they must not be discarded but should
instead be recycled by a specialist recycler of electronic equipment. Recyclers will find the products easy to dismantle
into their major component parts for efficient recycling. Many parts snap together and can be separated without the use
of tools, whilst other parts are secured with conventional fasteners. Virtually all parts of the product are suitable for
recycling.
Product packaging is of good quality and can be re-used. Large products are packed in wooden crates, while smaller
products come in strong cardboard cartons which themselves have a high recycled fibre content. If not re-used, these
containers can be recycled. Polythene, used on the protective film and bags for wrapping product, can be recycled in the
same way. Control Techniques' packaging strategy prefers easily-recyclable materials of low environmental impact, and
regular reviews identify opportunities for improvement.
When preparing to recycle or dispose of any product or packaging, please observe local legislation and best practice.
REACH legislation
EC Regulation 1907/2006 on the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and restriction of Chemicals (REACH) requires
the supplier of an article to inform the recipient if it contains more than a specified proportion of any substance which is
considered by the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) to be a Substance of Very High Concern (SVHC) and is
therefore listed by them as a candidate for compulsory authorisation.
For current information on how this requirement applies in relation to specific Control Techniques products, please
approach your usual contact in the first instance. Control Techniques position statement can be viewed at:

1 Safety information
1.1 Warnings, cautions and notes
A Warning contains information which is essential for
avoiding a safety hazard.
A Caution contains information which is necessary for
avoiding a risk of damage to the product or other equipment.
A Note contains information which helps to ensure correct operation of
the product.
1.2 Electrical safety - general warning
The voltages used in the drive can cause severe electrical shock and/or
burns, and could be lethal. Extreme care is necessary at all times when
working with or adjacent to the drive.
Specific warnings are given at the relevant places in this User Guide.
1.3 System design and safety of
The drive is intended as a component for professional incorporation into
complete equipment or a system. If installed incorrectly, the drive may
present a safety hazard.
The drive uses high voltages and currents, carries a high level of stored
electrical energy, and is used to control equipment which can cause
injury.
Close attention is required to the electrical installation and the system
design to avoid hazards either in normal operation or in the event of
equipment malfunction. System design, installation, commissioning/
start-up and maintenance must be carried out by personnel who have
the necessary training and experience. They must read this safety
information and this User Guide carefully.
The STOP function of the drive do not isolate dangerous voltages from
the output of the drive or from any external option unit. The supply must
be disconnected by an approved electrical isolation device before
gaining access to the electrical connections.
None of the drive functions must be used to ensure safety of
personnel, i.e. they must not be used for safety-related functions.
Careful consideration must be given to the functions of the drive which
might result in a hazard, either through their intended behavior or
through incorrect operation due to a fault. In any application where a
malfunction of the drive or its control system could lead to or allow
damage, loss or injury, a risk analysis must be carried out, and where
necessary, further measures taken to reduce the risk - for example, an
over-speed protection device in case of failure of the speed control, or a
fail-safe mechanical brake in case of loss of motor braking.
personnel
1.4 Environmental limits
Instructions in this User Guide regarding transport, storage, installation
and use of the drive must be complied with, including the specified
environmental limits. Drives must not be subjected to excessive physical
force.
1.5 Access
Access must be restricted to authorized personnel only. Safety
regulations which apply at the place of use must be complied with.
1.6 Fire protection
The drive enclosure is not classified as a fire enclosure. A separate fire
enclosure must be provided. See section 3.2.6 Fire protection on
page 20 for more information.
1.7 Compliance with regulations
The installer is responsible for complying with all relevant regulations,
such as national wiring regulations, accident prevention regulations and
electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) regulations. Particular attention
must be given to the cross-sectional areas of conductors, the selection
of fuses or other protection, and protective earth (ground) connections.
This User Guide contains instruction for achieving compliance with
specific EMC standards.
Within the European Union, all machinery in which this product is used
must comply with the following directives:
2006/42/EC: Safety of machinery.
2004/108/EC: Electromagnetic Compatibility.
1.8 Motor
Ensure the motor is installed in accordance with the manufacturer’s
recommendations. Ensure the motor shaft is not exposed.
Standard squirrel cage induction motors are designed for single speed
operation. If it is intended to use the capability of the drive to run a motor
at speeds above its designed maximum, it is strongly recommended that
the manufacturer is consulted first.
Low speeds may cause the motor to overheat because the cooling fan
becomes less effective. The motor should be installed with a protection
thermistor. If necessary, an electric forced vent fan should be used.
The values of the motor parameters set in the drive affect the protection
of the motor. The default values in the drive should not be relied upon.
It is essential that the correct value is entered in parameter 0.46 motor
rated current. This affects the thermal protection of the motor.
1.9 Mechanical brake control
The brake control functions are provided to allow well co-ordinated
operation of an external brake with the drive. While both hardware and
software are designed to high standards of quality and robustness, they
are not intended for use as safety functions, i.e. where a fault or failure
would result in a risk of injury. In any application where the incorrect
operation of the brake release mechanism could result in injury,
independent protection devices of proven integrity must also be
incorporated.
1.10 Adjusting parameters
Some parameters have a profound effect on the operation of the drive.
They must not be altered without careful consideration of the impact on
the controlled system. Measures must be taken to prevent unwanted
changes due to error or tampering.

2 Product information
2.1 Introduction
The Affinity is a high performance open loop AC drive specifically designed for use in building automation HVAC/R applications. Figure 2-1 below
indicates the key product features including built in connectivity to building automation systems. Each drive is equipped with two identical option slots
for I/O and communications expansion
Figure 2-1 Features
The Affinity drive can be used as a standalone motor controller or integrated into a building automation system using analog and digital I/O or serial
communications. The base drive incorporates a RS-485 serial communications port that is selectable between BACnet, Metasys N2 or Modbus RTU.
LonWorks, Ethernet, Profibus and Devicenet connectivity is achieved with the addition of plug-in Solutions Modules.
Key features:
Fire Mode
Fire Mode is a configurable override function that is used to alter the operation of the drive based upon external inputs, typically a discrete digital
input from a Building Management Fire Protection system (refer to section 11.21.3 Fire mode on page 216).
Real time Clock
An internal real time clock is available which is used for the timer functions and trip log
Timer functions
Two timers are available to switch an output on a routine basis
Sleep/Wake Mode
Sleep/wake mode stops and starts the motor during periods of low demand to improve system efficiency
Advanced Process PID
Two PIDs are available which can operate independently or combine to provide more complex functionality
Fire Mode - Important Warning
When Fire Mode is active the motor overload and thermal protection are disabled, as well as a number of drive protection functions. Fire
Mode is provided for use only in emergency situations where the safety risk from disabling protection is less than the risk from the drive
tripping - typically in smoke extraction operation to permit evacuation of a building. The use of Fire Mode itself causes a risk of fire from
overloading of the motor or drive, so it must only be used after careful consideration of the balance of risks.
Care must be taken to prevent inadvertent activation or de-activation of Fire Mode. Fire Mode is indicated by a flashing display text
warning "Fire mode active".
Care must be taken to ensure that parameters Pr 1.53 or Pr 1.54 are not inadvertently re-allocated to different inputs or variables. It should
be noted that, by default, Pr 1.54 is controlled from digital input 4 and changing Pr 6.04 or Pr 8.24 can re-allocate this digital input to another
parameter. These parameters are at access level 2 in order to minimize the risk of inadvertent or unauthorized changes. It is recommended
that User Security be applied to further reduce the risk (see section 5.10 Parameter access level and security on page 97). These
parameters may also be changed via serial communications so adequate precautions should be taken if this functionality is utilized.

2.2 Drive types
There are three versions of Affinity drive available:
•Standard
•IP54 (NEMA12)
•IP66 (NEMA12)
The IP54 and IP66 drives are identified by additional characters at the end of the model number, i.e. E12/E54 or E12/E66. The standard drive has no
additional characters.
The standard drives are rated to IP20/NEMA1. Drive sizes 1 and 3 conform to UL Type 1 and sizes 4 to 6 are Open Class. If the optional conduit box
(refer to section 3.5 Mounting methods on page 31) is installed, then drive sizes 4 to 6 conform to UL Type 1.
The E12/E54 and E12/E66 drives have an additional cover installed. They are rated to IP54/NEMA12 and IP66/NEMA12 respectively and both
conform to UL Type 12. E12/E54 and E12/E66 drive sizes 1 to 3 have an internal fan installed to re-circulate the air. The larger drive sizes have fans
installed to the cover to provide forced ventilation using filtered air.
2.3 Ratings

2.3.1 Typical short term overload limits
The maximum percentage overload limit changes depending on the selected motor. Variations in motor rated current, motor power factor and motor
leakage inductance all result in changes in the maximum possible overload. The exact value for a specific motor can be calculated using the
equations detailed in Menu 4 in the Advanced User Guide.
Typical values are shown in the table below for RFC mode (RFC) and open loop (OL) modes:
Table 2-5 Typical overload limits for size 1 to 6
Operating modeRFC mode from coldRFC mode from 100% Open loop from cold Open loop from 100%
Overload with motor rated current = drive rated current110% for 165s110% for 9s110% for 165s110% for 9s
Generally the drive rated current is higher than the matching motor rated current allowing a higher level of overload than the default setting as
illustrated by the example of a typical 4 pole motor.
The time allowed in the overload region is proportionally reduced at very low output frequency.
The maximum overload level which can be attained is independent of the speed.
2.4 Model number
The way in which the model numbers for the Affinity range are formed is
illustrated below.
Quadratic V/F mode
The voltage applied to the motor is directly proportional to the square of
the frequency except at low speed where a voltage boost is provided
which is set by the user. This mode can be used for running fan or pump
applications with quadratic load characteristics or for multi-motor
applications. This mode is not suitable for applications requiring a high
starting torque.
2.5.2 RFC mode
Rotor flux control provides closed loop control without the need for
position feedback by using current, voltages and key motor parameters
to estimate the motor speed. It can eliminate instability traditionally
associated with open loop control such as operating large motors with
light loads at low frequencies.
For further details, refer to section 8.1.2 RFC mode on page 124.
2.5 Operating modes
The Affinity is designed to operate in any of the following modes:
1. Open loop mode
Open loop vector mode
Fixed V/F mode (V/Hz)
Quadratic V/F mode (V/Hz)
2. RFC mode
2.5.1 Open loop mode
The drive applies power to the motor at frequencies varied by the user.
The motor speed is a result of the output frequency of the drive and slip
due to the mechanical load. The drive can improve the speed control of
the motor by applying slip compensation. The performance at low speed
depends on whether V/F mode or open loop vector mode is selected.
For further details refer to section 8.1.1 Open loop motor control on
page 121.
Open loop vector mode
The voltage applied to the motor is directly proportional to the frequency
except at low speed where the drive uses motor parameters to apply the
correct voltage to keep the flux constant under varying load conditions.
Typically 100% torque is available down to 1Hz for a 50Hz motor.
Fixed V/F mode
The voltage applied to the motor is directly proportional to the frequency
except at low speed where a voltage boost is provided which is set by
the user. This mode can be used for multi-motor applications.
Typically 100% torque is available down to 4Hz for a 50Hz motor.

3 Mechanical installation
This chapter describes how to use all mechanical details to install the
drive.
The standard drive is rated as IP20/UL Type 1 for size 1 to 3 and IP20/
open class for size 4 to 6. If the optional conduit box is installed, then
size 4 to 6 are rated as UL Type 1. (The conduit box is an additional
accessory for all sizes of the standard drive and is required for conduit
connection to the drive).
The standard drive is intended to be installed as appropriate for the
country where the equipment is used e.g. inside an additional enclosure,
plenum or on a plant room wall.
The E12/E54 and E12/E66 drives have additional covers installed.
The E12/E54 drive is IP54/UL Type 12 rated and as such may be
installed on a plant room wall and requires no additional enclosure.
The E12/E66 drive is IP66/UL Type 12 rated and as such may be
installed in areas subject to wash-down, and requires no additional
enclosure.
The E12/E66 drives can also be installed externally subject to the notes
given in section 3.2.3.
The UL Type 1 and UL Type 12 drives are also plenum rated and are
therefore suitable for Plenum mounting applications.
Key features of this chapter include:
•Planning the installation
•Terminal cover removal
•Conduit and conduit connection
•Solutions Module installation
•Surface mounting standard drive
•Through-hole mounting standard drive
•E12/E54 mounting
•Through panel mounting standard drive in an IP54/UL Type 12
enclosure
•Enclosure sizing and layout
•Terminal location and torque settings
3.1 Safety information
Follow the instructions
The mechanical and electrical installation instructions must
be adhered to. Any questions or doubt should be referred to
the supplier of the equipment. It is the responsibility of the
owner or user to ensure that the installation of the drive and
any external option unit, and the way in which they are
operated and maintained, comply with the requirements of
the Health and Safety at Work Act in the United Kingdom or
applicable legislation and regulations and codes of practice in
the country in which the equipment is used.
Competence of the installer
The drive must be installed by professional assemblers who
are familiar with the requirements for safety and EMC. The
assembler is responsible for ensuring that the end product or
system complies with all the relevant laws in the country
where it is to be used.
Many of the drives in this product range weigh in excess of
15kg (33lb). Use appropriate safeguards when lifting these
models.
A full list of drive weights can be found in section
12.1.18 Weights on page 241
3.2 Planning the installation
The following considerations must be made when planning the installation:
3.2.1 Access
Access must be restricted to authorized personnel only. Safety
regulations which apply at the place of use must be complied with.
3.2.2 Environmental protection
The standard drive must be protected from:
•moisture, including dripping water or spraying water and
condensation. An anti-condensation heater may be required, which
must be switched off when the drive is running.
•contamination with electrically conductive material
•contamination with any form of dust which may restrict the fan, or
impair airflow over various components
•temperature beyond the specified operating and storage ranges
•corrosive gasses
The E12/E54 variant is protected from airborne dust, splashing water
and non-corrosive liquids. The E12/E66 variant is dust-tight and
protected from powerful jets of water, heavy seas and non-corrosive
liquids.
3.2.3 External installations
The E12/E54 and E12/E66 drives may be installed externally, but it
should be noted that the drive covers could degrade over a long period
of time if they are subjected to high levels of UV radiation. It is therefore
advisable to provide some degree of shade, or preferably to mount the
drive where it receives little or no direct sunlight.
3.2.4 Cooling
If mounting the drive in an enclosure the heat produced must be
removed without its specified operating temperature being exceeded.
Note that a sealed enclosure gives much reduced cooling compared with
a ventilated one, and may need to be larger and/or use internal air
circulating fans.
For further information, refer to section 3.6.2 Enclosure sizing on
page 48.
The E12/E54 drive has an additional fan installed internally to assist
cooling by circulating air between the outer cover and the drive or
filtering air through external vents (size 4 to 6).
3.2.5 Electrical safety
The installation must be safe under normal and fault conditions.
Electrical installation instructions are given in Chapter 4 Electrical installation on page 66.
3.2.6 Fire protection
The drive enclosure is not classified as a fire enclosure. A separate fire
enclosure must be provided.
For installation in the USA, a NEMA 12 enclosure is suitable.
For installation outside the USA, the following (based on IEC 62109-1,
standard for PV inverters) is recommended.
•Enclosure can be metal and/or polymeric, polymer must meet
requirements which can be summarised for larger enclosures as
using materials meeting at least UL 94 class 5VB at the point of
minimum thickness.
•Air filter assemblies to be at least class V-2.
•The location and size of the bottom shall cover the area shown in
Figure 3-1. Any part of the side which is within the area traced out by
the 5° angle is also considered to be part of the bottom of the fire
enclosure.

The bottom, including the part of the side considered to be part of the
bottom, must be designed to prevent escape of burning material - either
by having no openings or by having a baffle construction. This means
that openings for cables etc. must be sealed with materials meeting the
5VB requirement, or else have a baffle above. See Figure 3-2 for
acceptable baffle construction. This does not apply for mounting in an
enclosed electrical operating area (restricted access) with concrete floor.

3.2.7 Electromagnetic compatibility
Variable speed drives are powerful electronic circuits which can cause
electromagnetic interference if not installed correctly with careful
attention to the layout of the wiring.
Some simple routine precautions can prevent disturbance to typical
industrial control equipment.
If it is necessary to meet strict emission limits, or if it is known that
electromagnetically sensitive equipment is located nearby, then full
precautions must be observed. In-built into the drive, is an internal EMC
filter, which reduces emissions under certain conditions. If these
conditions are exceeded, then the use of an external EMC filter may be
required at the drive inputs, which must be located very close to the
drives. Space must be made available for the filters and allowance made
for carefully segregated wiring. Both levels of precautions are covered in
section 4.11 EMC (Electromagnetic compatibility) on page 78.
3.2.8 Hazardous areas
The drive must not be located in a classified hazardous area unless it is
installed in an approved enclosure and the installation is certified.

3.3 Terminal cover removal
Isolation device
The AC supply must be disconnected from the drive using an
approved isolation device before any cover is removed from
the drive or before any servicing work is performed.
Stored charge
The drive contains capacitors that remain charged to a
potentially lethal voltage after the AC supply has been
disconnected. If the drive has been energized, the AC
supply must be isolated at least ten minutes before work
may continue.
Normally, the capacitors are discharged by an internal
resistor. Under certain, unusual fault conditions, it is possible
that the capacitors may fail to discharge, or be prevented
from being discharged by a voltage applied to the output
terminals. If the drive has failed in a manner that causes the
display to go blank immediately, it is possible the capacitors
will not be discharged. In this case, consult Control
Techniques or their authorized distributor.
3.3.1 Removing the terminal covers
Standard drive
Size 1 is installed with two terminal covers: AC/Control and DC terminal
covers.
Size 2 is installed with three terminal covers: AC/Control , High current
DC / Braking and low voltage DC terminal covers.
Size 3 is installed with four terminal covers: Control, High current DC /
Braking, low voltage DC and AC terminal covers.
Size 4, 5 and 6 are installed with three terminal covers: Control, input
and output terminal covers.
In order to provide access to the mounting holes when a size 1, 2 or 3
drive is through-panel mounted, the control terminal cover must be
removed. For size 3 the high current DC / Braking and AC terminal
covers must also be removed. Once the drive has been mounted, the
terminal covers can be replaced.
E12/E54 and E12/E66
Size 1 to 4 are only installed with 1 outer cover which is held on by 6
sealing screws. By removing this cover access can be gained to all
power and control terminals as per the standard drive. No further covers
require removal.
Size 5 and 6 are installed with 2 removable covers, top and bottom, for
access to input, output and control terminals.

3.3.5 E12/E54 and E12/E66 gland plate drilling
For size 1 and 2 drives, the gland plates have pre-prepared holes
installed with glands for the power, motor and control cables.
For size 3 to 6 E12/E54 and size 3 E12/E66 drives, the pre-prepared
holes in the plate are for control cables only. Custom holes need to be
drilled accordingly for the following reasons:
•To route power and motor cables
•The connection of metal conduit or IP54/IP66 cable conduits
If being used in a Type 12, IP54 or IP66 environment, the correctly rated
glands should be used and installed in accordance with the supplier's
recommendations.
Sizes 4 to 6 have two gland plates, top and bottom.
In order to prevent contamination from metal swarf, the gland
plate should be removed prior to drilling.
These holes are supplied installed with IP55 glands. Care should be
taken when holes are cut in the glands for the cables to pass through,
that the residual gap between the cable and the gland is minimal.
Prior to the removal of the covers, the top conduit plate should be
cleaned / dried to remove any debris or moisture. Care should be taken
to ensure that the cover gaskets are not damaged when removing or
replacing the covers.

3.5.2 Standard drive through-panel mounting
When the standard drive is through-panel mounted, the main terminal
cover(s) must be removed in order to provide access to the mounting
holes. Once the drive has been mounted, the terminal cover(s) can be
replaced.
The conduit connection box cannot be used when through-panel
mounting the standard drive‘
In order to achieve IP54 rating (UL Type 12 / NEMA 12) for throughpanel mounting, an IP54 insert must be installed (size 1 and 2) and the
heatsink fan should be replaced with an IP54 rated fan (sizes 1 to 4).
Additionally, the gasket provided should be installed between the drive
and the backplate to ensure a good seal for the enclosure. If the
heatsink mounted braking resistor is to be used with the drive throughpanel mounted, refer to the specific Braking resistor installation sheet.
For further information refer to section 3.8 Enclosing standard drive for high environmental protection on page 50.

Table 3-3 states the mounting clearances required when mounting the
E12/54 drive. The drive spacing stated for sizes 4 to 6 are recommended
3x2
to allow easy access to the maintainable dust filters. When installing the
drives, access to the filters should not be blocked by cabling or conduit.
For details on how to access the filters please refer to section

To avoid damaging the through-panel mounting bracket when throughpanel mounting a size 1 or size 2, the through-panel mounting bracket
should be used to mount the top of the drive to the back plate before the
bottom of the drive is mounted to the back plate. The tightening torque
should be 4 N m (2.9 lb ft).
3.5.4 Installation of the mounting bracket on size 4,
5 and 6
Size 4, 5 and 6 use the same mounting brackets for surface and
through-panel mounting.
The mounting bracket has a long section and a short section.

The mounting bracket must be installed in the correct orientation with the
long section inserted into or attached to the drive and the short section is
attached to the back plate. Figure 3-32 shows the orientation of the
mounting bracket when the drive is surface and through-panel mounted.
Figure 3-32 Orientation of the size 4, 5 and 6 mounting bracket
When through-panel mounted, the mounting brackets on the left hand
side of the drive can be secured using the screws already located there.
On the right hand side, the mounting brackets are just inserted into the
slots in the chassis of the drive; no mounting screws are present here.
Size 5 and 6 also require two top mounting brackets when the drive is
surface mounted. The two brackets should be installed to the top of the
drive as shown in Figure 3-33.
The maximum torque setting for the screws into the drive chassis is
10 N m (7.4 lb ft).

3.6 Enclosure for standard drives
3.6.1 Enclosure layout
Please observe the clearances in the diagram below taking into account any appropriate notes for other devices / auxiliary equipment when planning
the installation.

3.6.2 Enclosure sizing
1. Add the dissipation figures from section 12.1.2 Power dissipation on
page 233 for each drive that is to be installed in the enclosure.
2. If an external EMC filter is to be used with each drive, add the
dissipation figures from section 12.2.1 EMC filter ratings on
page 247 for each external EMC filter that is to be installed in the
enclosure.
3. If the braking resistor is to be mounted inside the enclosure, add the
average power figures from for each braking resistor that is to be
installed in the enclosure.
4. Calculate the total heat dissipation (in Watts) of any other equipment
to be installed in the enclosure.
5. Add the heat dissipation figures obtained above. This gives a figure
in Watts for the total heat that will be dissipated inside the enclosure.
Calculating the size of a sealed enclosure
The enclosure transfers internally generated heat into the surrounding
air by natural convection (or external forced air flow); the greater the
surface area of the enclosure walls, the better is the dissipation
capability. Only the surfaces of the enclosure that are unobstructed (not
in contact with a wall or floor) can dissipate heat.

3.8 Enclosing standard drive for high
environmental protection
An explanation of environmental protection rating is provided in section
12.1.9 Environmental Protection Rating on page 239.
The standard drive is rated to IP20 pollution degree 2 (dry, nonconductive contamination only) (UL Type 1 / NEMA 1). However, it is
possible to configure the drive to achieve IP54 rating (UL Type 12 /
NEMA 12) at the rear of the heatsink for through-panel mounting (some
current derating is required for size 1 and 2). Refer to Table 12-2 on
page 229.
This allows the front of the drive, along with various switchgear, to be
housed in an IP54 (UL Type 12 / NEMA 12) enclosure with the heatsink
protruding through the panel to the external environment. Thus, the
majority of the heat generated by the drive is dissipated outside the
enclosure maintaining a reduced temperature inside the enclosure. This
also relies on a good seal being made between the heatsink and the rear
of the enclosure using the gaskets provided.
For Type 12 the drive must be mounted on a flat surface of a Type
12 enclosure.

The main gasket should be installed as shown in Figure 3-45. Any

nylon washers provided in the kit box to maintain a seal around the
screw hole. See Figure 3-48.
In order to achieve the high IP rating at the rear of the heatsink with size
1 and 2, it is necessary to seal a heatsink vent by installing the IP54
insert as shown in Figure 3-46 and Figure 3-47.

For sizes 4 to 6 it may be necessary to improve the rigidity of the through
panel mounting surface due to the larger distance between the top and
bottom mounting brackets and the need to maintain compression on the
gasket.
When the drive is mounted, if the gap between the drive flange (which
the gasket rests on) and the rear wall of the enclosure is ≥6mm at any
point around the drive then the following methods can be used to
compress the gasket further:

1. Use a thicker panel for the mounting wall of the enclosure through
which the drive is mounted.
2. Use an internal backplate to pull the rear wall of the enclosure up to
the drive gasket. See Figure 3-48 for details. (Nylon washers are
supplied in the standard drive kit for sealing off any nut and bolt
mountings that exit through the rear wall of the panel).
3. If an internal backplate is not available a separate clamp can be
used to simulate option 2. See Figure 3-49. 4 off sealing clamps are
supplied in the drive kit box.

For increased fan lifetime in a dirty environment the heatsink fan must be
replaced with an IP54 rated fan. Contact the supplier of the drive for
details. If the standard fan is used in a dirty/dusty environment, reduced
fan lifetime will result. Regular cleaning of the fan and heatsink is
recommended in this environment. The heatsink fan installed in sizes 5
and 6 are IP54 rated as standard.
The guidelines in Table 3-7 should be followed.

4 Electrical installation
Many cable management features have been incorporated into the
product and accessories, this chapter shows how to optimize them. Key
features include:
•Internal EMC filter
•EMC compliance with shielding / grounding accessories
•Product rating, fusing and cabling information
•Brake resistor details (selection / ratings)
Electric shock risk
The voltages present in the following locations can cause
severe electric shock and may be lethal:
•AC supply cables and connections
•DC and brake cables, and connections
•Output cables and connections
•Many internal parts of the drive, and external option units
Unless otherwise indicated, control terminals are single
insulated and must not be touched.
Isolation device
The AC supply must be disconnected from the drive using
an approved isolation device before any cover is removed
from the drive or before any servicing work is performed.
STOP function
The STOP function does not remove dangerous voltages
from the drive, the motor or any external option units.
4.1 Power connections
4.1.1 AC and DC connections
Figure 4-1 Size 1 power connections
Stored charge
The drive contains capacitors that remain charged to a
potentially lethal voltage after the AC supply has been
disconnected. If the drive has been energized, the AC
supply must be isolated at least ten minutes before work
may continue.
Normally, the capacitors are discharged by an internal
resistor. Under certain, unusual fault conditions, it is possible
that the capacitors may fail to discharge, or be prevented
from being discharged by a voltage applied to the output
terminals. If the drive has failed in a manner that causes the
display to go blank immediately, it is possible the capacitors
will not be discharged. In this case, consult Control
Techniques or their authorized distributor.
Equipment supplied by plug and socket
Special attention must be given if the drive is installed in
equipment which is connected to the AC supply by a plug
and socket. The AC supply terminals of the drive are
connected to the internal capacitors through rectifier diodes
which are not intended to give safety isolation. If the plug
terminals can be touched when the plug is disconnected
from the socket, a means of automatically isolating the plug
from the drive must be used (e.g. a latching relay).

•Supplies with voltage up to 600V may have grounding at any
potential, i.e. neutral, centre or corner (“grounded delta”)
•Supplies with voltage above 600V may not have corner grounding
Drives are suitable for use on supplies of installation category III and
lower, according to IEC60664-1. This means they may be connected
permanently to the supply at its origin in a building, but for outdoor

Operation with IT (ungrounded) supplies:
Special attention is required when using internal or external
EMC filters with ungrounded supplies, because in the event
of a ground (earth) fault in the motor circuit the drive may not
trip and the filter could be over-stressed. In this case, either
the filter must not be used (removed) or additional
independent motor ground fault protection must be provided.
Refer to Table 4-1.
For instructions on removal, refer to Figure 4-20 Removal of
internal EMC filter (size 1 to 3) and Figure 4-21 Removal of
internal EMC filter (sizes 4 to 6) on page 81.
For details of ground fault protection contact the supplier of
the drive.
A ground fault in the supply has no effect in any case. If the motor must
continue to run with a ground fault in its own circuit then an input
isolating transformer must be provided and if an EMC filter is required it
must be located in the primary circuit.
Unusual hazards can occur on ungrounded supplies with more than one
source, for example on ships. Contact the supplier of the drive for more
information.
Table 4-1 Behavior of the drive in the event of a motor circuit
The current rating of the line reactors should be as follows:
Continuous current rating:
Not less than the continuous input current rating of the drive
Repetitive peak current rating:
Not less than twice the continuous input current rating of the drive
4.2.3 Input inductor calculation
To calculate the inductance required (at Y%), use the following equation:
Where:
I = drive rated input current (A)
L = inductance (H)
f = supply frequency (Hz)
V = voltage between lines
4.3 Auxiliary power supply
The size 6 E12/54 drive requires an auxiliary 110V or 230V power supply
to feed the internal 24V power supply. The 24V power supply is used to
supply the heatsink fans on the power module.
Figure 4-8 Location of size 6 E12/54 drive 24V power supply
4.2.2 Supplies requiring line reactors
Input line reactors reduce the risk of damage to the drive resulting from
poor phase balance or severe disturbances on the supply network.
Where line reactors are to be used, reactance values of approximately
2% are recommended. Higher values may be used if necessary, but may
result in a loss of drive output (reduced torque at high speed) because of
the voltage drop.
For all drive ratings, 2% line reactors permit drives to be used with a
supply unbalance of up to 3.5% negative phase sequence (equivalent to
5% voltage imbalance between phases).
Severe disturbances may be caused by the following factors, for example:
•Power factor correction equipment connected close to the drive.
•Large DC drives having no or inadequate line reactors connected to
the supply.
•Across the line (DOL) started motor(s) connected to the supply such
that when any of these motors are started, the voltage dip exceeds
20%.
Such disturbances may cause excessive peak currents to flow in the
input power circuit of the drive. This may cause nuisance tripping, or in
extreme cases, failure of the drive.
Drives of low power rating may also be susceptible to disturbance when
connected to supplies with a high rated capacity.
Line reactors are particularly recommended for use with the following
drive models when one of the above factors exists, or when the supply
capacity exceeds 175kVA:
Model sizes BA1405 to BA4606 have an internal DC choke and BA5201
to BA6602 have internal AC line chokes, so they do not require AC line
reactors except for cases of excessive phase unbalance or extreme
supply conditions.
When required, each drive must have its own reactor(s). Three individual
reactors or a single three-phase reactor should be used.

4.4 Supplying the drive with DC / DC bus
paralleling
The connecting of the DC bus between several drives is typically used to:
1. Return energy from a drive which is being overhauled by the load to
a second motoring drive.
2. Allow the use of one braking resistor to dissipate regenerative
energy from several drives.
There are limitations to the combinations of drives which can be used in
this configuration.
For application data, contact the supplier of the drive.
4.5 Fan connections
4.5.1 Heatsink fan supply
The heatsink fan on size 1 to 5 is supplied internally by the drive. The
heatsink fan on size 6 requires an external 24Vdc supply. The
connections for the heatsink fan supply must be made to the upper
terminal connector near to the W phase output on the drive. Figure 4-9
shows the position of the heatsink fan supply connections.
Figure 4-9 Location of the size 6 heatsink fan supply connections
Figure 4-10 Size 6 heatsink fan supply connections
4.6 Control 24Vdc supply
The 24Vdc input has three main functions.
•It can be used to supplement the drive’s own internal 24V when
multiple SM-I/O Plus modules are being used and the current drawn
by these modules is greater than the drive can supply. (If too much
current is drawn from the drive, the drive will initiate a 'PS.24V' trip)
•It can be used as a back-up power supply to keep the control circuits
of the drive powered up when the line power supply is removed. This
allows any fieldbus modules or serial communications to continue to
operate.
•It can be used to commission the drive when the line power supply is
not available, as the display operates correctly. However, the drive
will be in the UV trip state unless either line power supply or low
voltage DC operation is enabled, therefore diagnostics may not be
possible. (Power down save parameters are not saved when using
the 24V back-up power supply input.)
The working voltage range of the 24V power supply is as follows:
Maximum continuous operating voltage: 30.0 V
Minimum continuous operating voltage: 19.2 V
Nominal operating voltage: 24.0 V
Minimum start up voltage: 21.6 V
Maximum power supply requirement at 24V: 60 W
Recommended fuse: 3 A, 50 Vdc
Minimum and maximum voltage values include ripple and noise. Ripple
and noise values must not exceed 5%.
4.7 Ratings
The input current is affected by the supply voltage and impedance.
Typical input current
The values of typical input current are given to aid calculations for power
flow and power loss.
The values of typical input current are stated for a balanced supply.
Maximum continuous input current
The values of maximum continuous input current are given to aid the
selection of cables and fuses. These values are stated for the worst case
condition with the unusual combination of stiff supply with bad balance.
The value stated for the maximum continuous input current would only
be seen in one of the input phases. The current in the other two phases
would be significantly lower.
The values of maximum input current are stated for a supply with a 2%
negative phase-sequence imbalance and rated at the supply fault
current given in Table 4-2.

current matches that of the drive. Where a motor of reduced rating is
used the cable rating may be chosen to match that of the motor. To
ensure that the motor and cable are protected against overload, the
drive must be programmed with the correct motor rated current.

UL listing is dependent on the use of the correct type of UL-listed fuse,
and applies when symmetrical short-circuit current does not exceed
100kA. See Chapter 14 UL listing information on page 264 for sizing
information.
A fuse or other protection must be included in all live connections to the
AC supply.
An MCB (miniature circuit breaker) or MCCB (moulded-case circuitbreaker) with type C may be used in place of fuses on sizes 1 to 3 under
the following conditions:
•The fault-clearing capacity must be sufficient for the installation
•For frame sizes 2 and 3, the drive must be mounted in an enclosure
which meets the requirements for a fire enclosure (For details
regarding fire enclosures see section 3.2.6 Fire protection on
page 20).
See Chapter 14 UL listing information on page 264 for UL listing
requirements.
Fuse types
The fuse voltage rating must be suitable for the drive supply voltage.
Ground connections
The drive must be connected to the system ground of the AC supply.
The ground wiring must conform to local regulations and codes of
practice.
4.7.1 Main AC supply contactor
The recommended AC supply contactor type for sizes 1 to 6 is AC1.

4.8 Output circuit and motor protection
The output circuit has fast-acting electronic short-circuit protection which
limits the fault current to typically no more than five times the rated
output current, and interrupts the current in approximately 20µs. No
additional short-circuit protection devices are required.
The drive provides overload protection for the motor and its cable. For
this to be effective, Pr 0.46 Motor rated current must be set to suit the
motor.
Pr 0.46Motor rated current must be set correctly to avoid a
risk of fire in the event of motor overload.
There is also provision for the use of a motor thermistor to prevent overheating of the motor, e.g. due to loss of cooling.
4.8.1 Cable types and lengths
Since capacitance in the motor cable causes loading on the output of the
drive, ensure the cable length does not exceed the values given in Table
4-6, Table 4-7 and Table 4-8.
Use 105°C (221°F) (UL 60/75°C temp rise) PVC-insulated cable with
copper conductors having a suitable voltage rating, for the following
power connections:
•AC supply to external EMC filter (when used)
•AC supply (or external EMC filter) to drive
•Drive to motor
•Drive to braking resistor

It is recommended that each motor is connected through a protection relay
since the drive cannot protect each motor individually. For
connection, a
sinusoidal filter or an output inductor must be connected as shown in
Figure 4-13, even when the cable lengths are less than the maximum
permissible. For details of inductor sizes refer to the supplier of the drive.
Figure 4-12 Preferred chain connection for multiple motors
Cables that do not have an insulating jacket tend to have high
capacitance; if a cable of this type is used, the maximum cable length is
half that quoted in the tables. (Figure 4-11 shows how to identify the two
types.)
Figure 4-11 Cable construction influencing the capacitance
The cable used for Table 4-6, Table 4-7, Table 4-8 and Table 4-9 is
shielded and contains four cores. Typical capacitance for this type of
cable is 130pF/m (i.e. from one core to all others and the shield
connected together).
4.8.2 Motor winding voltage
The PWM output voltage can adversely affect the inter-turn insulation in
the motor. This is because of the high rate of change of voltage, in
conjunction with the impedance of the motor cable and the distributed
nature of the motor winding.
For normal operation with AC supplies up to 500Vac and a standard
motor with a good quality insulation system, there is no need for any
special precautions. In case of doubt the motor supplier should be
consulted.
Special precautions are recommended under the following conditions,
but only if the motor cable length exceeds 10m:
•AC supply voltage exceeds 500V
•DC supply voltage exceeds 670V
•Operation of 400V drive with continuous or very frequent sustained
braking
•Multiple motors connected to a single drive
For multiple motors, the precautions given in section 4.8.3 Multiple motors should be followed.
For the other cases listed, it is recommended that an inverter-rated
motor be used. This has a reinforced insulation system intended by the
manufacturer for repetitive fast-rising pulsed voltage operation.
Users of 575V NEMA rated motors should note that the specification for
inverter-rated motors given in NEMA MG1 section 31 is sufficient for
motoring operation but not where the motor spends significant periods
braking. In that case an insulation peak voltage rating of 2.2kV is
recommended.
If it is not practical to use an inverter-rated motor, an output choke
(inductor) should be used. The recommended type is a simple iron-cored
component with a reactance of about 2%. The exact value is not critical.
This operates in conjunction with the capacitance of the motor cable to
increase the rise-time of the motor terminal voltage and prevent
excessive electrical stress.
4.8.3 Multiple motors
Open-loop only (not RFC mode)
If the drive is to control more than one motor, one of the fixed V/F modes
should be selected (Pr 5.14 = Fd or SrE). Make the motor connections
as shown in Figure 4-12 and Figure 4-13. The maximum cable lengths in
Table 4-6, Table 4-7, Table 4-8 and Table 4-9 apply to the sum of the
total cable lengths from the drive to each motor.

the motor
Incorrect connection of the windings will cause severe under or over
fluxing of the motor, leading to a very poor output torque or motor
saturation and overheating respectively.
4.8.5 Output contactor
If the cable between the drive and the motor is to be
interrupted by a contactor or circuit breaker, ensure that the
drive is disabled before the contactor or circuit breaker is
opened or closed. Severe arcing may occur if this circuit is
interrupted with the motor running at high current and low
speed.
A contactor is sometimes required to be installed between the drive and
motor for safety purposes.
The recommended motor contactor is the AC3 type.
Switching of an output contactor should only occur when the output of
the drive is disabled.
Opening or closing of the contactor with the drive enabled will lead to:
1. OI.AC trips (which cannot be reset for 10 seconds)
2. High levels of radio frequency noise emission
3. Increased contactor wear and tear
4.9 Braking
Braking occurs when the drive is decelerating the motor, or is preventing
the motor from gaining speed due to mechanical influences. During
braking, energy is returned to the drive from the motor.
When the motor is being braked by the drive, the maximum regenerated
power that the drive can absorb is equal to the power dissipation
(losses) of the drive.
When the regenerated power is likely to exceed these losses, the DC
bus voltage of the drive increases. Under default conditions, the drive
brakes the motor under PI control, which extends the deceleration time
as necessary in order to prevent the DC bus voltage from rising above a
user defined set-point.
If the drive is expected to rapidly decelerate a load, or to hold back an
overhauling load, a braking resistor must be installed.
Table 4-10 shows the DC voltage level at which the drive turns on the
braking transistor.

When a braking resistor is used, Pr 0.15 should be set to FASt ramp
mode.
High temperatures
Braking resistors can reach high temperatures. Locate
braking resistors so that damage cannot result. Use cable
having insulation capable of withstanding high temperatures.
4.9.1 Heatsink mounted braking resistor
A resistor has been especially designed to be mounted within the
heatsink of the drive (sizes 1 and 2). See the Installation Sheet provided
with the heatsink mounted braking resistor. The design of the resistor is
such that no thermal protection circuit is required, as the device will fail
safely under fault conditions. On sizes 1 and 2, the in built software
overload protection is set up at default for the designated heatsink
mounted resistor. Table 4-11 provides the resistor data for each drive
rating.

The drive’s software contains an overload protection

resistor. Below are the parameter settings.
For more information on the braking resistor software

descriptions in the Advanced User Guide.
If the heatsink mounted braking resistor is to be used at
more than half of its average power rating then the drive's
cooling fan must be at full speed controlled by setting
Pr 6.45 to On (1).

the default values of Pr 10.30 and Pr 10.31 are 0 (i.e. software braking

4.9.2 External braking resistor
Overload protection
When an external braking resistor is used, it is essential that
an overload protection device is incorporated in the braking
resistor circuit; this is described in Figure 4-14 on page 77.
When a braking resistor is to be mounted outside the enclosure, ensure
that it is mounted in a ventilated metal housing that will perform the
following functions:
•Prevent inadvertent contact with the resistor
•Allow adequate ventilation for the resistor
When compliance with EMC emission standards is required, external
connection requires the cable to be armored or shielded, since it is not
fully contained in a metal enclosure. See section 4.11.5 Compliance with generic emission standards on page 84 for further details.
Internal connection does not require the cable to be armored or
shielded.

Information
For high-inertia loads or under continuous braking, the continuous power
dissipated in the braking resistor may be as high as the power rating of
the drive. The total energy dissipated in the braking resistor is dependent
on the amount of energy to be extracted from the load.
The instantaneous power rating refers to the short-term maximum power
dissipated during the on intervals of the pulse width modulated braking
control cycle. The braking resistor must be able to withstand this
dissipation for short intervals (milliseconds). Higher resistance values
require proportionately lower instantaneous power ratings.
In most applications, braking occurs only occasionally. This allows the
continuous power rating of the braking resistor to be much lower than
the power rating of the drive. It is essential, though, that the
instantaneous power rating and energy rating of the braking resistor are
sufficient for the most extreme braking duty that is likely to be
encountered.
Optimization of the braking resistor requires a careful consideration of
the braking duty.
Select a value of resistance for the braking resistor that is not less than
the specified minimum resistance. Larger resistance values may give a
cost saving, as well as a safety benefit in the event of a fault in the
braking system. Braking capability will then be reduced, which could
cause the drive to trip during braking if the value chosen is too large.
Thermal protection circuit for the braking resistor
The thermal protection circuit must disconnect the AC supply from the
drive if the resistor becomes overloaded due to a fault. Figure 4-14
shows a typical circuit arrangement.
Figure 4-14 Typical protection circuit for a braking resistor
See Figure 4-1 on page 66, Figure 4-2 and Figure 4-3 on page 67, and
Figure 4-4 on page 68 for the location of the +DC and braking resistor
connections.
** The minimum resistance value specified is for a stand-alone drive
only. If the drive is part of a common DC bus system a different value
must be used. Contact the supplier of the drive for more information.
Affinity User Guide 77
Issue Number: 5 www.controltechniques.com
The drive software contains an overload protection function for a braking
resistor. In order to enable and set-up this function, it is necessary to
enter two values into the drive:
•Resistor short-time overload time (Pr 10.30)
•Resistor minimum time between repeated short-time overloads
(Pr 10.31)
This data should be obtained from the manufacturer of the braking
resistors.
Pr 10.39 gives an indication of braking resistor temperature based on a
simple thermal model. Zero indicates the resistor is close to ambient and
100% is the maximum temperature the resistor can withstand. A br.rS
alarm is given if this parameter is above 75% and the braking IGBT is
active. An It.br trip will occur if Pr 10.39 reaches 100%, when Pr 10.37 is
set to 0 (default value) or 1.
If Pr 10.37 is equal to 2 or 3 an It.br trip will not occur when Pr 10.39
reaches 100%, but instead the braking IGBT will be disabled until
Pr 10.39 falls below 95%. This option is intended for applications with
parallel connected DC buses where there are several braking resistors,
each of which cannot withstand full DC bus voltage continuously. With
this type of application it is unlikely the braking energy will be shared
equally between the resistors because of voltage measurement
tolerances within the individual drives. Therefore with Pr 10.37 set to 2 or
3, then as soon as a resistor has reached its maximum temperature the
drive will disable the braking IGBT, and another resistor on another drive
will take up the braking energy. Once Pr 10.39 has fallen below 95% the
drive will allow the braking IGBT to operate again.
See the Advanced User Guide for more information on Pr 10.30, Pr
10.31, Pr 10.37 and Pr 10.39.
This software overload protection should be used in addition to an
external overload protection device.
Fire Mode - Important Warning
When Fire Mode is active the motor overload and thermal
protection are disabled, as well as a number of drive
protection functions. Fire Mode is provided for use only in
emergency situations where the safety risk from disabling
protection is less than the risk from the drive tripping typically in smoke extraction operation to permit evacuation
of a building. The use of Fire Mode itself causes a risk of fire
from overloading of the motor or drive, so it must only be
used after careful consideration of the balance of risks.
Care must be taken to prevent inadvertent activation or deactivation of Fire Mode. Fire Mode is indicated by a flashing
display text warning "Fire mode active".
Care must be taken to ensure that parameters Pr 1.53 or
Pr 1.54 are not inadvertently re-allocated to different inputs or
variables. It should be noted that, by default, Pr 1.54 is
controlled from digital input 4 and changing Pr 6.04 or Pr 8.24
can re-allocate this digital input to another parameter. These
parameters are at access level 2 in order to minimize the risk
of inadvertent or unauthorized changes. It is recommended
that User Security be applied to further reduce the risk (see
section 5.10 Parameter access level and security on
page 97). These parameters may also be changed via serial
communications so adequate precautions should be taken if
this functionality is utilized.
4.10 Ground leakage
The ground leakage current depends upon whether the internal EMC
filter is installed. The drive is supplied with the filter installed. Instructions
for removing the internal filter are given in Figure 4-20 Removal of
internal EMC filter (size 1 to 3) and Figure 4-21 Removal of internal EMC
filter (sizes 4 to 6) on page 81.
With internal filter installed:
Size 1 to 3: 28mA* AC at 400V 50Hz
30µA DC with a 600V DC bus (10MΩ)
Size 4 to 6: 56mA* AC at 400V 50Hz
18µA DC with a 600V DC bus (33MΩ)
* Proportional to the supply voltage and frequency.
With internal filter removed:
<1mA
Note that in both cases there is an internal voltage surge protection
device connected to ground. Under normal circumstances this carries
negligible current.
When the internal filter is installed the leakage current is
high. In this case a permanent fixed ground connection must
be provided, or other suitable measures taken to prevent a
safety hazard occurring if the connection is lost.
4.10.1 Use of residual current device (RCD)
There are three common types of ELCB / RCD:
1. AC - detects AC fault currents
2. A - detects AC and pulsating DC fault currents (provided the DC
current reaches zero at least once every half cycle)
3. B - detects AC, pulsating DC and smooth DC fault currents
•Type AC should never be used with drives.
•Type A can only be used with single phase drives
•Type B must be used with three phase drives
Only type B ELCB / RCD are suitable for use with 3 phase
inverter drives.
If an external EMC filter is used, a delay of at least 50ms should be
incorporated to ensure spurious trips are not seen. The leakage current
is likely to exceed the trip level if all of the phases are not energized
simultaneously.
4.11 EMC (Electromagnetic compatibility)
The requirements for EMC are divided into three levels in the following
three sections:
Section 4.11.3, General requirements for all applications, to ensure
reliable operation of the drive and minimize the risk of disturbing nearby
equipment. The immunity standards specified in section 11 will be met,
but no specific emission standards. Note also the special requirements
given in Surge immunity of control circuits - long cables and connections outside a building on page 86 for increased surge immunity of control
circuits where control wiring is extended.
Section 4.11.4, Requirements for meeting the EMC standard for
power drive systems, IEC61800-3 (EN 61800-3:2004).
Section 4.11.5, Requirements for meeting the generic emission
standards for the industrial environment, IEC61000-6-4, EN 61000-6-
4:2007.
The recommendations of section 4.11.3 will usually be sufficient to avoid
causing disturbance to adjacent equipment of industrial quality. If
particularly sensitive equipment is to be used nearby, or in a nonindustrial environment, then the recommendations of section 4.11.4 or
section 4.11.5 should be followed to give reduced radio-frequency
emission.

The installer of the drive is responsible for ensuring compliance with the
EMC regulations that apply where the drive is to be used.
4.11.1 Grounding hardware
The drive is supplied with a grounding bracket, and sizes 1 to 3 with a
grounding clamp, to facilitate EMC compliance. They provide a
convenient method for direct grounding of cable shields without the use
of "pig-tails". Cable shields can be bared and clamped to the grounding
bracket using metal clips or clamps
that the shield must in all cases be continued through the clamp to the
intended terminal on the drive, in accordance with the connection details
for the specific signal.

4.11.2 Internal EMC filter
It is recommended that the internal EMC filter be kept in place unless
there is a specific reason for removing it.
For frame sizes 3 and above, when the drive is used with
ungrounded (IT) supplies the internal EMC filter must be
removed unless additional motor ground fault protection is
installed or, in the case of size 3 only, the external filter is
also used.
For instructions on removal, refer to Figure 4-20 and Figure
4-21.
For details of ground fault protection contact the supplier of
the drive.
If the drive is used as a motoring drive as part of a Unidrive SP regen
system, then the internal EMC filter must be removed.
The internal EMC filter reduces radio-frequency emission into the line
power supply. Where the motor cable is short, it permits the
requirements of EN 61800-3:2004 to be met for the second environment
- see section 4.11.4 Compliance with EN 61800-3:2004 (standard for
Power Drive Systems) on page 83 and section 12.1.23 Electromagnetic
compatibility (EMC) on page 245. For longer motor cables the filter
continues to provide a useful reduction in emission level, and when used
with any length of shielded motor cable up to the limit for the drive, it is
unlikely that nearby industrial equipment will be disturbed. It is
recommended that the filter be used in all applications unless the
instructions given above require it to be removed or the ground leakage
current of 28mA for size 1 to 3 or 56mA for size 4 to 6 is unacceptable.
See Figure 4-20 and Figure 4-21 for details of removing and installing
the internal EMC filter.

Operation in the second environment
In all cases a shielded motor cable must be used, and an EMC filter is
required for all Affinity drives with a rated input current of less than 100A.
The drive contains an in-built filter for basic emission control. In some
cases feeding the motor cables (U, V and W) once through a ferrite ring
can maintain compliance for longer cable lengths. The requirements of
operating in the second environment are met, depending on the motor
cable length for 3kHz switching frequency as stated in Table 4-15.

It is unimportant for EMC purposes whether the motor cable contains an

conductor, or grounding is through the shield alone. An internal ground
core will carry a high noise current and therefore it must be terminated
as close as possible to the shield termination.

Figure 4-31 Connecting the motor cable to a terminal block in the

Using a motor isolator / disconnect-switch
The motor cable shields should be connected by a very short conductor
having a low inductance. The use of a flat metal coupling-bar is
recommended; conventional wire is not suitable.
The shields should be bonded directly to the coupling-bar using
uninsulated metal cable-clamps. Keep the length of the exposed power
conductors to a minimum and ensure that all sensitive equipment and
circuits are at least 0.3m (12 in) away.
The coupling-bar may be grounded to a known low-impedance ground
nearby, for example a large metallic structure which is connected closely
to the drive ground.
Figure 4-32 Connecting the motor cable to an isolator /
disconnect switch
4.11.6 Variations in the EMC wiring
Interruptions to the motor cable
The motor cable should ideally be a single length of shielded or armored
cable having no interruptions. In some situations it may be necessary to
interrupt the cable, as in the following examples:
•Connecting the motor cable to a terminal block in the drive enclosure
•Installing a motor isolator / disconnect switch for safety when work is
done on the motor
In these cases the following guidelines should be followed.
Terminal block in the enclosure
The motor cable shields should be bonded to the back-plate using
uninsulated metal cable-clamps which should be positioned as close as
possible to the terminal block. Keep the length of power conductors to a
minimum and ensure that all sensitive equipment and circuits are at
least 0.3m (12 in) away from the terminal block.
Surge immunity of control circuits - long cables and
connections outside a building
The input/output ports for the control circuits are designed for general
use within machines and small systems without any special precautions.
These circuits meet the requirements of EN 61000-6-2:2005 (1kV surge)
provided the 0V connection is not grounded.
In applications where they may be exposed to high-energy voltage
surges, some special measures may be required to prevent malfunction
or damage. Surges may be caused by lightning or severe power faults in
association with grounding arrangements which permit high transient
voltages between nominally grounded points. This is a particular risk
where the circuits extend outside the protection of a building.

As a general rule, if the circuits are to pass outside the building where
the drive is located, or if cable runs within a building exceed 30m, some
additional precautions are advisable. One of the following techniques
should be used:
1. Galvanic isolation, i.e. do not connect the control 0V terminal to
ground. Avoid loops in the control wiring, i.e. ensure every control
wire is accompanied by its return (0V) wire.
2. Shielded cable with additional power ground bonding. The cable
shield may be connected to ground at both ends, but in addition the
ground conductors at both ends of the cable must be bonded
together by a power ground cable (equipotential bonding cable) with
cross-sectional area of at least 10mm
2
, or 10 times the area of the
signal cable shield, or to suit the electrical safety requirements of the
plant. This ensures that fault or surge current passes mainly through
the ground cable and not in the signal cable shield. If the building or
plant has a well-designed common bonded network this precaution
is not necessary.
3. Additional over-voltage suppression - for the analog and digital
inputs and outputs, a zener diode network or a commercially
available surge suppressor may be connected in parallel with the
input circuit as shown in Figure 4-33 and Figure 4-34.
If a digital port experiences a severe surge its protective trip may operate
(O.Ld1 trip code 26). For continued operation after such an event, the
trip can be reset automatically by setting Pr 10.34 to 5.

These devices are not suitable for encoder signals or fast digital data
networks because the capacitance of the diodes adversely affects the
signal. Most encoders have galvanic isolation of the signal circuit from
the motor frame, in which case no precautions are required. For data

5 Getting started
This chapter introduces the user interfaces, menu structure and security level of the drive.
5.1 Understanding the display
There is one keypad available for theAffinity. The BA-Keypad has an LCD display and is installed on the drive as standard.
5.1.1 BA-Keypad (LCD)
The display consists of three lines of text.
The top line shows the drive status or the current menu and parameter number being viewed on the left, and the parameter value or the specific trip
type on the right.
The lower two lines show the parameter name or the help text.
Figure 5-1 BA-Keypad
The red off button is also used to reset the drive.
The BA-Keypad Plus can indicate when a SMARTCARD access is taking place, when the second motor map is active (menu 21) or when solution
module parameters are displayed. These are indicated on the displays as follows.
EventKeypad
SMARTCARD access taking placeThe symbol ‘CC’ will appear in the lower left hand corner of the display
Second motor map activeThe symbol ‘Mot2’ will appear in the lower left hand corner of the display
Solutions module parameters displayedThe symbol ‘Opx’ will appear in the left hand corner of the display
5.2 Keypad operation
5.2.1 Control buttons
The keypad consists of:
1. Joypad - used to navigate the parameter structure and change parameter values.
2. Mode button - used to change between the display modes – parameter view, parameter edit, status.
3. Three control buttons - used to select Hand / Off / Auto modes
4. Help button - displays text briefly describing the selected parameter.
The Help button toggles between other display modes and parameter help mode. The up and down functions on the joypad scroll the help text to
allow the whole string to be viewed. The right and left functions on the joypad have no function when help text is being viewed.

Do not change parameter values without careful
consideration; incorrect values may cause damage or a
safety hazard.
When changing the values of parameters, make a note of the new
values in case they need to be entered again.
For new parameter-values to apply after the AC supply to the drive is
interrupted, new values must be saved. Refer to section 5.8 Saving parameters on page 97.
5.3 Menu structure
The drive parameter structure consists of menus and parameters.
The drive initially powers up so that only menu 0 can be viewed. The up
and down arrow buttons are used to navigate between parameters and
once level 2 access (L2) has been enabled (see Pr 0.49) the left and
right buttons are used to navigate between menus. For further

5.6 Changing the operating mode
Changing the operating mode returns all parameters to their default
value, including the motor parameters. (Pr 0.49 Security status and
Pr 0.34User security code are not affected by this procedure.)
Procedure
Use the following procedure only if a different operating mode is
required:
1. Ensure the drive is not enabled, i.e. terminal 31 is open or Pr 6.15 is
Off (0)
2. Enter either of the following values in Pr xx.00, as appropriate:
1253 (EUR, 50Hz AC supply frequency)
1254 (USA, 60Hz AC supply frequency)
3. Change the setting of Pr 0.48 as follows:
The figures in the second column apply when serial communications are
used.
Pr 0.48 settingOperating mode
1Open-loop
2RFC mode
4. Either:
•Press the red reset button
•Toggle the reset digital input
•Carry out a drive reset through serial communications by setting
Pr 10.38 to 100 (ensure that Pr. xx.00 returns to 0).
Entering 1253 or 1254 in Pr xx.00 will only load defaults if the setting of
Pr 0.48 has been changed.
5.7 Changing the keypad mode
The keypad mode can be selected for Hand, Off or Auto by using the
keypad buttons
•Blue - Auto
•Red - Off
•Green - Hand
In Hand mode, the motor speed is adjusted by pressing the keypad up/
down arrow buttons. If Hand mode is selected from Auto mode then the
transition is bumpless, so the motor speed will not change.
In Auto mode, the motor speed control reference is determined by the
value set in the speed/frequency reference selector Pr 0.05.
In Off mode, the motor will be stopped but pressing the keypad up/down
arrow buttons will allow the keypad control reference Pr 1.17 to be
adjusted. Selecting Hand mode will then ramp the motor up to the
selected speed.
Procedure
Enter 1000* in Pr. xx.00
Either:
•Press the red reset button
•Toggle the reset digital input
•Carry out a drive reset through serial communications by setting
Pr 10.38 to 100 (ensure that Pr. xx.00 returns to 0).
*If the drive is in the under voltage trip state or is being supplied from a
low voltage DC supply, a value of 1001 must be entered into Pr xx.00 to
perform a save function.
5.9 Restoring parameter defaults
Restoring parameter defaults by this method saves the default values in
the drive’s memory. (Pr 0.49 and Pr 0.34 are not affected by this
procedure.)
Procedure

5.10 Parameter access level and security
The parameter access level determines whether the user has access to
menu 0 only or to all the advanced menus (menus 1 to 22) in addition to
menu 0.
The User Security determines whether the access to the user is read
only or read write.
Both the User Security and Parameter Access Level can operate
independently of each other as shown in the table below:
Parameter

5.10.1 Access Level
The access level is set in Pr 0.49 and allows or prevents access to the
advanced menu parameters.
5.10.3 User Security
The User Security, when set, prevents write access to any of the
parameters (other than Pr. 0.49 and Pr 11.44 Access Level) in any
menu.
5.10.2 Changing the Access Level
The Access Level is determined by the setting of Pr 0.49 as follows:
StringValueEffect
L10Access to menu 0 only
L21Access to all menus (menu 0 to menu 22)
The Access Level can be changed through the keypad even if the User
Security has been set.
Setting User Security
Enter a value between 1 and 999 in Pr 0.34 and press the button;
the security code has now been set to this value. In order to activate the
security, the Access level must be set to Loc in Pr 0.49. When the drive
is reset, the security code will have been activated and the drive returns
to Access Level L1. The value of Pr 0.34 will return to 0 in order to hide
the security code. At this point, the only parameter that can be changed
by the user is the Access Level Pr 0.49.
Unlocking User Security
Select a read write parameter to be edited and press the button, the
display will now show CodE. Use the arrow buttons to set the security
code and press the button.
With the correct security code entered, the display will revert to the
parameter selected in edit mode.
If an incorrect security code is entered the display will revert to
parameter view mode.
To lock the User Security again, set Pr 0.49 to Loc and press the
reset button.
Disabling User Security
Unlock the previously set security code as detailed above. Set Pr 0.34 to
0 and press the button. The User Security has now been disabled,
and will not have to be unlocked each time the drive is powered up to
allow read / write access to the parameters.

5.13 Communications
5.13.1 Introduction
The Affinity has a PC communications interface and a Building
Automation Network interface. The PC communications interface
enables all drive set-up, operation and monitoring to be carried out with
a PC or controller if required. Therefore, it is possible to control the drive
entirely by serial communications without the need for a BA-keypad or
other control cabling. The PC communications interface supports two
protocols selected by parameter configuration:
•Modbus RTU
•CT ANSI
Modbus RTU has been set as the default protocol, as it is used with the
PC-tools commissioning/start-up software as provided on the CD ROM.
The PC communications port of the drive is a RJ45 socket, which is
isolated from the power stage and the other control terminals (see
section 4.12 PC communications connections for connection and
isolation details).
The communications port applies a 2 unit load to the communications
network.
USB/EIA232 to EIA485 Communications
An external USB/EIA232 hardware interface such as a PC cannot be
used directly with the 2-wire PC communications interface of the drive.
Therefore a suitable converter is required.
Suitable USB to EIA485 and EIA232 to EIA485 isolated converters are
available from Control Techniques as follows:
•CT USB Comms cable (CT Part No. 4500-0096)
•CT EIA232 Comms cable (CT Part No. 4500-0087)
When using one of the above converters or any other suitable converter
with the Affinity , it is recommended that no terminating resistors be
connected on the network. It may be necessary to 'link out' the
terminating resistor within the converter depending on which type is
used. The information on how to link out the terminating resistor will
normally be contained in the user information supplied with the
converter.
The Building Automation Network enables connection to a building
automation system using the following protocols:
•Modbus RTU slave
•BACnet
•Metasys N2

17.10Device Object Identifier

Ö

BACnet use only
If Object Identifier is set to any value less than -19 (to -32768) then the
Pr 17.10 gets set to 1. If Object Identifier is set to zero then the MAC/
Node address selected in Pr 17.03 will be used as the object identifier
for the BACnet device; otherwise the device object identifier will be the
value specified here.
The BACnet Object Identifier range supported on Affinity drive is from 1
to 4194302 (supported on BAN firmware V01.03.07 or later). In order to
set the Object Identifier above 32767 two consecutive menu 18
parameters are used as shown in Table 5-7. Each pair of menu 18
parameters is selected using Pr 17.10; the lower parameter number will
contain the last four decimal digits of the Object Identifier and the higher
parameter number will contain the first three decimal digits of the Object
Identifier. The choice of which pair of parameters is used depends on the
availability of the parameters, as long as they are NOT used by any on
board PLC or DPL program they can be used.
This method can also be used to set object identifier values below 32768
if required.
Example 1: To set the value of the Object Identifier as 4194302 for an
Affinity drive; set the following parameters (provided Pr 18.29 and
Pr 18.30 are not used for DPL program and are available);
•Pr 17.10 set to -19
•Pr 18.29 set to 4302
•Pr 18.30 set to 419
Example 2: To set the value of the Object Identifier as 59430 for an
Affinity drive; set the parameters (provided Pr 18.11 and Pr 18.12 are not
used for DPL program and are available);
•Pr 17.10 set to -1
•Pr 18.11 set to 9430

keypad, via a Solutions Module or via the comms interface itself. If it is
changed via the comms interface, the response to the command uses
the original protocol. The master should wait at least 20ms before send a
new message using the new protocol. (Note: ANSI uses 7 data bits, 1
stop bit and even parity; Modbus RTU uses 8 data bits, 2 stops bits and
no parity.)
