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, while 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

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 Installation and Commissioning guide.
1.3 System design and safety of personnel
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 Installation and Commissioning guide carefully.
The STOP and Safe Torque Off (STO) functions 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.
With the sole exception of the Safe Torque Off (STO) function, 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.
The Safe Torque Off (STO) function may be used in a safety-related application. The system designer is responsible for ensuring that the complete
system is safe and designed correctly according to the relevant safety standards.
1.4 Environmental limits
Instructions in this Installation and Commissioning 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
Drive 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. For further information, refer to the E200 Design
Guide.
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 ground (earth) connections.
The E200 Design Guide contains instructions for achieving compliance with specific EMC standards.

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 into the Motor Rated Current (B02). This affects the thermal protection of the motor.
1.9 Mechanical brake control
The brake control functions are provided to allow well coordinated 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.
1.11 Electrical installation
1.11.1 Electric shock risk
The voltages present in the following locations can cause severe electric shock and may be lethal:
•AC supply 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.
1.11.2 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.

2.4 Ratings
The E300 Standard Elevator drive is configured for Heavy Duty operation, For constant torque applications or applications which require a high
overload capability, or full torque is required at low speeds (e.g. elevators, hoists). The thermal protection is set to protect force ventilated induction
motors and permanent magnet servo motors by default.
2
t protection defaults to be compatible with:
Motor I
N
If the application uses a self ventilated (TENV/TEFC) induction motor and increased thermal protection is required for speeds below 50 % base
speed, then this can be enabled by setting Low Speed Thermal Protection Mode (B44) = On (1).
The rating label details the available output current, under the following conditions:
•40 °C (104 °F) maximum abient
•1000 m altitude
•8 kHz switching frequency
•Typical elevator profile (50% ED)
•IGBT lifetime optimization enabled (reduction of switching frequency based on the drive inverter temperature.
The input current is affected by the supply voltage and impedance. The input current given on the rating label is the typical input current and is stated
for a balanced supply.
Fuses
The AC supply to the drive must be installed with suitable protection against overload and short-circuits. The following section shows
recommended fuse ratings. Failure to observe this requirement will cause risk of fire.

The maximum 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 due to the thermal models estimation of the motor temperature as a percentage of
its maximum allowed temperature. Typical values for overload are shown in the table below:

2.5 Operating modes
The E300 Advanced Elevator drive is designed to operate in any of the following modes with the default operating mode being RFC-S
Open loop mode
Open loop vector mode
Fixed V/F mode (V/Hz)
RFC - A, Closed loop vector
With position feedback sensor
Sensorless mode without position feedback for rescue operation
RFC - S, Closed loop Servo
With position feedback sensor
Sensorless mode without position feedback for rescue operation
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 Fixed V/F mode or Open loop vector mode is selected.
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 1 Hz for a 50 Hz 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 4 Hz for a 50 Hz motor.
2.5.2 RFC-A
Rotor Flux Control for Asynchronous induction motors RFC-A encompasses closed loop vector control with a position feedback device
With position feedback
For use with induction motors with a feedback device installed. The drive directly controls the speed of the motor using the feedback device to ensure
the rotor speed exactly as demanded. Motor flux is accurately controlled at all times to provide full torque all the way down to zero speed.
Sensorless mode without position feedback for rescue operation
Sensorless mode provides closed loop control without the need for position feedback by using current, voltages and key motor parameters to
estimate the motor speed.

2.5.3 RFC- S
Rotor Flux Control for Synchronous permanent magnet brushless motors RFC-S provides closed loop control with position feedback device.
With position feedback
For use with permanent magnet brushless motors with a feedback device installed. The drive directly controls the speed of the motor using the
feedback device to ensure the rotor speed is exactly as demanded. Flux control is not required because the motor is self excited by the permanent
magnets which form part of the rotor. Absolute position information is required from the feedback device to ensure the output voltage is accurately
matched to the back EMF of the motor. Full torque is available all the way down to zero speed.
Sensorless mode without position feedback for rescue operation
Sensorless mode provides closed loop control without the need for position feedback by using current, voltages and key motor parameters to
estimate the motor speed.

2.10 EMC filters
2.10.1 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 example the drive is part of a
Regen system or there is excessive ground leakage current in the system.
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. For longer motor cables the filter continues to provide a useful reduction in emission levels, 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 where the ground
leakage current is unacceptable.
If the drive is used with ungrounded (IT) supplies, the internal EMC filter must be removed unless additional motor ground fault protection
is installed.
The power supply must be removed prior to removing the internal EMC filter.
2.10.2 Standard external EMC filter
The external EMC filter for all drive size can be either footprint or bookcase mounted, the details for each EMC filter is provided in the following.

2.11 AC input line reactors
The AC power supply current harmonics for the complete Elevator system will be the vector sums of the harmonic currents for all of the individual
electrical loads in the system. Usually the main drive will dominate the electrical load, and it will be sufficient to ensure that these meet the harmonic
requirements detailed in IEC 61000-3-12 (EN 12015). Where drives are also used for ancillary functions such as door opening, ventilation etc., it may
be necessary to ensure that their harmonic contributions are not excessive, although generally their power ratings will be too small to be significant.
AC input line reactors must be provided in order to maintain the harmonics below the required levels detailed in IEC 61000-3-12 (EN 12015), the
following table provides details of suitable AC input line reactors to meet this standard while operating at rated power. Note the correct value reactor
depends upon the maximum input power for the particular Elevator system, and not necessarily the drive model / rating. For a given application, it is
important the actual maximum input power is measured / estimated and the correct reactor value calculated in inverse proportion to the power.
Where input line reactors are not required to meet IEC 61000-3-12 (EN 12015) line reactors may still be required due to power supply quality issues,
poor phase balance, severe disturbances etc in this case refer to section 4.11 Supplies requiring Input line reactors on page 72.

3 Mechanical installation
This chapter describes how to use all mechanical details to install the drive. The drive is intended to be installed in an enclosure. Key features of this
chapter include:
•Installing the drive
•Option module installation
•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.
Enclosure
The drive is intended to be mounted in an enclosure which prevents access except by trained and authorized personnel, and which
prevents the ingress of contamination. It is designed for use in an environment classified as pollution degree 2 in accordance with IEC
60664-1. This means that only dry, non-conducting contamination is acceptable.
3.2 Installation
The following considerations must be made for 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.
The IP (Ingress Protection) rating of the drive is installation dependent. For further information refer to the E200 Design Guide.
3.2.2 Environmental protection
The 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
During installation it is recommended that the vents on the drive are covered to prevent debris (e.g. wire off-cuts) from entering the drive.
3.2.3 Cooling
The heat produced by the drive 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.
3.2.4 Electrical safety
The installation must be safe under normal and fault conditions.
3.2.5 Fire protection
The drive enclosure is not classified as a fire enclosure. A separate fire enclosure must be provided which can be metal and/or polymeric. Polymer
must meet requirements which can be summarized 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.
3.2.6 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 (located very close to the drives input) may be required.
3.2.7 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 and / or DC power 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 and / or DC power supply has been
disconnected. If the drive has been energized, the power supply must be isolated for 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.
