• Space: Ensure proper space above and below
the frequency converter to allow airflow and
cable access. In addition space in front of the
unit must be considered to enable opening of
the door of the panel.
• Wire access: Ensure that proper cable access is
present including necessary bending allowance.
As the IP00 enclosure is open to the bottom
cables must be fixed to the back panel of the
enclosure where the frequency converter is
mounted, i.e. by using cable clamps.
o All cable lugs/ shoes must mount within the
width of the terminal bus bar
OPERATION
• The Ingersoll Rand 302 Series VFD must onl y
be operated by competent personnel under
qualified supervision.
• Never remove or tamper with safety devices,
guards or insulation materials fitted to the
Ingersoll Rand 302 Series VFD.
• The Ingersoll Rand 302 Series VFD must onl y
be operated at the supply voltage and frequency
for which it is designed.
• When main power is switched on, lethal
voltages are present in the electrical circuits and
extreme caution must be exercised whenever it
is necessary to carry out any work on the unit.
• Do not open access panels or touch electrical
components while voltage is applied unless it is
necessary for measurements, tests or
adjustments. Such work should be carried out
only by a qualified electrician equipped with the
correct tools and wearing appropriate protection
against electrical hazards.
• All air compressors and/or other equipment
connected to the unit should have a warning
sign attached stating “THIS UNIT MAY START
WITHOUT WARNING” next to the display panel.
• If an air compressor and/or other equipment
connected to the unit is to be started remotely,
attach two warning signs to the equipment
stating “THIS UNIT CAN BE STARTED
REMOTELY”. Attach one sign in a prominent
location on the outside of the equipment, and
the other sign inside the equipment control
compartment.
MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR
• Maintenance, repairs or modifications must only
be carried out by competent personnel under
qualified supervision.
• If replacement parts are required, use only
genuine parts from the original equipment
manufacturer, or an alternative approved
source.
• Carry out the following operati ons before
opening or removing any access panels or
carrying out any work on the Ingersoll Rand 302
Series VFD:
i. Isolate the Ingersoll Rand 302 Series
VFD from the main electrical power
supply. Lock the isolator in the “OFF”
position and remove the fuses.
ii. Attach labels to the isolator switch and
to the unit stating “WORK IN
PROGRESS - DO NOT APPLY
VOLTAGE”. Do not switch on electrical
power or attempt to start the CX Box if
such a warning label is attached.
• Make sure that all instructions concerning
operation and maintenance are strictly followed
and that the complete unit, with all accessories
and safety devices, is kept in good working
order.
• The accuracy of sensor devices must be
checked on a regular basis. They must be
calibrated when acceptable tolerances are
exceeded. Always ensure any pressur e withi n
the compressed air system is safely vented to
atmosphere before attempting to remove or
install a sensor device.
• The Ingersoll Rand 302 Series VFD must onl y
be cleaned with a damp cloth, using mild
detergents if necessary. Avoid the use of any
substances containing corrosive acids or alkalis.
• Do not paint the control faceplate or obscure
any indicators, controls, instru ctio ns or
warnings
.
INGERSOLL RAND 302 SERIES VFD
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
• The frequency converter DC link capacitors
remain charged after power has been
disconnected. To avoid electrical shock hazard,
disconnect the frequency converter from the
mains before carrying out maintenance. Before
doing service on the frequency converter wait at
least the amount of time indicated below:
o 380 - 500 V 90 - 200 kW 20 minutes
250 - 800 kW 40 minutes
o 525 - 690 V 37 - 315 kW 20 minutes
355 - 1200 kW 30 minutes
• The Stop/Reset key on the local control panel of
the Ingersoll Rand 302 Series VFD DOES NOT
disconnect the equipment from the AC line. DO
NOT use the Stop/Reset key as a safety switch.
• The installer must supply correct protective
grounding of the equipment. The user must be
protected against supply voltage, and the motor
must be protected against ove rload in
accordance with National Electric Code and
local codes.
• To avoid potential shock hazard when servicing
a motor or Ingersoll Rand 302 Series VFD ,
remove all power to all drives with wiring that
shares any conduit to be worked on. If that is
not possible, remove power to the drive and
ground the motor wires at the drive. When the
work has been completed, remove the grounds
before reapplying power to the drive. In general,
a conduit should not contain unshielded power
conductors for more than three PWM operated
motors.
