1.1 General 8230 frequency inverter are processor-c ontrolled pulse inverters with a field-orientated control concept for continuous low-loss speed adjustment of AC motors.

The power stack consists of a diode rectifier in a 3-phase bridge circuit on the mains side and an IGBT inverter on the motor side.
The basic inverter models are designed for standard applications. Through suitable options (eg. bus couplers, encoder interface) the units can be integrated into automation systems and can also fulfil highly dynamic requirements.
Operation of all units is identical throughout the entire type range. Easy familiarisation and operation as well as maximum flexibility were the prime objectives during development.
The inverters are operated and parameters adjusted by means of a control unit (BDE).
Connection to automation systems is po ssi ble throu gh conv en tional bus systems (see field bus coupler options).
With a mains voltage range from 380 to 480 V build-in units cover the power range from 144 kVA to 330 kVA.
In conjunction with standard asynchronous motors the drive capacities provided are therefore as follows:
- At unit rated current
110 kW to 200 kW, 400 V
- At unit 1.5 x rated current
132 kW to 250 kW, 400 V
Note:
This operating manual applies to the following units: 8230 frequency inverter Software version: V2.0
Important!
8230 frequency inverter are designed as standard for operating on earthed networks.

1.2 Basic operation The link voltage is generated from the mains supply through the mains rectifier. A 3­phase choke connected to the mains supply reduces harmonic currents and serves to decouple the unit from other converters (consumers) on the same supply network. 8230 frequency inverter are connected as standard to an earthed network. The link voltage is smoothed by high quality electrolytic capacitors. With the motor converter these provide the magnetising reactive power required by the motor and decouple the converter on the mains side from the inverter on the motor side.

Through optimised pulse width modulation the motor converter generates from the link voltage a sinusoidal 3-phase system with variable frequency and voltage.
A power dump (option) in conjunction with a braking resistor allows braking energy to be used in regenerative operation.
Control and regulation of the 8230 frequency inverter are fully digital. Different control structures such as, frequency control, speed control with or without encoder and torque control with or without encoder can be selected, depending on the application requirements. The field-orientated control concept provides control dynamics directly comparable to those of a DC drive.
In addition, various inputs and outputs can be connected individually according to the task involved. Thus the drive system can very easily be customised for the requirements of the specific application.

2.4.1.2 Mains chokes Mains choke is required in the supply cable to reduce the harmonics and
(3-phase chokes) limit commutation failures. The mains chokes for the relevant 8230 frequency inverter
types are listed in the table below. Mains chokes are not included in the 8230 frequency inverter. The mains choke must be allocated individually to each 8230 frequency inverter to
guarantee decoupling when several units are operated at the same mains supply point. A mains choke of high rating is not suitable for several low power 8230 frequency inverter units. Mains chokes improve the overvoltage protection. The impedance of the choke forms a voltage divider with the impedance on the mains side. When the choke is not saturated magnetically it limits the current rise when the voltage rises. This prevents excessive overvoltages at the 8230 frequency inverter mains input.

Harmonics
The mains converter consists of an uncontrolled 6-pulse bridge circuit (B6) with diodes. Capacitors which decouple the mains converter from the motor converter are fitted on the link and maintain the continuous flow of current to the motor converter. A varying amount of energy is taken from the link capacitor depending on the load on the motor, whereby the mains converter compensates for the reduction in charging according to the mains voltage characteristic, i.e. the phase position of the current, in contrast to the thyristor mains converter, remai ns al mos t constant and is not dependent on the momentary value. The effective mains impedance and the load conditions affect the shape of the mains current curve and therefore the harmonic content, whereby the mains choke and the ratio between the mains short-circuit voltage and the inverter apparent power are decisive for the harmonic content.
Commutation notches
If the ratio between the mains short-circuit power to the complete rated controller power is less than 30 : 1 with a standard mains choke, special mains chokes to limit commutation notches in the mains voltage at public mains according to prEN50178/VDE0160:1991 are to be used.
1)
If the feedback is evaluated on the basis of VDEW
recommendations, the ratio must
not be smaller than approx. 100 : 1 with mains chokes.
1)
VDEW = Association of German Electricity Supply Companies.
In large industrial plant it is possible to reduce the dominant 5th harmonic in 6-pulse mains converters by connecting some of the converter load through transformers with
a phase shift of 30° electrical in relation to the other transformers. Another transformer circuit in switching group Yy0 with a compensation winding could be implemented instead of the Dy5 circuit often used. In this configuration, for example, the 5th harmonic can be reduced by more than 50 % provided that both converters have the same overlap angle.

2.5.2 Brake chopper The 8230 frequency inverter can additionally be equipped with a brake chopper
and braking resistors for applications involving regenerative operation, for example braking processes.
Regenerative operation of the drive occurs if negative load torque or negative acceleration torque (braking torque) occurs in the speed range. In the majority of all applications braking processes are the cause of regenerative drive operation. The 8230 frequency inverter can be equipped with a power dump for this application. Braking energy is then converted by the power dump into heat in an external resistor.
In this case the 8230 frequency inverter link voltage is limited to a fixed value, the link current is reversed and is taken off through the power dump and the external braking resistor.
You can estimate whether a 8230 frequency inverter with a power dump for braking is required if you have the following drive parameters available:

Note:
When determining the rating of a braking resistor the type of load involved is an important criterion. The size of the braking resistor for a sudden load is determined only by the weight of the active material and for the theoretical continuous power only by the radiating surface of the resistor material. In discontinuous operation the rating is determined by the power permitted and the duty cycle. The values shown in Table 13 for the duty cycle are preferred and, unless stated otherwise, refer to a maximum duty cycle of 15 s.

With a 10 % duty cycle the resistor may be switched on continuously for a maximum of 15 seconds. Also permissible, for example, would be 5 seconds on and 45 seconds off. A load cycle with 20 seconds on and then 180 seconds off would not be permissible.

The alarm contact(s) are to be integrated into the control of the drive (plant) such that the mains voltage is switched off atthe power input of the 8230 frequency inverter, if the contact responds. This means that the main contactor or power switch in the 3AC supply is opened.

2.5.4 Motor filters and output chokes

2.5.4.1 Motor filters The use of the latest semiconductor technology allows extremely short times for
switching the circuit breakers in frequency inverters on or off. 8230 frequency inverter are IGBT pulse inverters whose output voltage has rising or
falling flanks of approx. 2 ... 3 kV/µs. Output filters for 8230 frequency inverter units are available for unlimited use with the benefits of IGBT technology when using a wide range of asynchronous 3-phase motors with different winding insulation voltages. These filters reduce the voltage rate of rise. An excessive voltage rise at the motor terminal box is determined by the cable length and the windings on the 3-phase motor used, through capacitive coupling. 8230 frequency inverter motor filters reduce this excessive rise in voltage through their built-in attenuation circuit. The 8230 frequency inverter motor filter prevents premature ageing of the insulation and therefore early failure if insulation limits are exceeded.
In general: du/dt The shorter the motor cable length, the more critical
the rate of rise
Excessive voltage rise When longer motor cables are used the amplitude of
the voltage rise and fall at the motor terminal box can increase beyond the critical value for the mains supply voltage.
Higher cable inductance and capacitan ce on long er motor cab les, however, reduces the du/dt value. The maximum voltage amplitude is therefore also reduced, so that the voltage rate of rise is reduced when an inductance due to longer cables applies.
The motor du/dt filters developed for 8230 frequency inverter units reduce the output voltage rise and fall times to below 500 V/µs (VDE 0503T1 Sheet 2). At the same time the filter design limits the rise time and the amplitude of the voltages and currents occurring in comparison to earth potential.
When using screened motor cable a du/dt filter also attenuates the amplitude and rate of rise of the screen current. This significantly reduces the effects of adjacent unscreened cables. The limit for transient overvoltages is maintained when the cable lengths specified for the filter are observed.

insulation characteristics can be used on 8230 frequency inverter. Standard motors of 400 V ... 460 V are designed for the voltage rates of rise and fall and voltage peaks of up to 1300 V which occur during inverter operation. If other makes of motors are used, please contact the motor supplier concerning suitability for inverter operation. 8230 frequency inverter motor filters are to be used if the insulation resistance of the motors and the maximum permitted voltage in the motor terminal box does not match the required value of 1300 V and the permitted
voltage rate of rise in the winding insulation is <3 kV/µs. If the motors do not satisfy these requirements, 8230 frequency inverter motor filters or application-dependent output chokes are to be used.
With long parallel runs of unscreened motor cables in industrial applications a
motor filter is recommended to reduce the effect of adjacent cable runs caused by direct magnetic coupling.
Radiated interference, particularly for high frequency components in the motor
current, is reduced by limiting the voltage rate of rise when using motor cables which are not screened.

2.5.4.2 Motor choke The motor choke makes it possible to use longer cable lengths between the 8230 frequency inverter and the motor. Motor chokes reduce the output voltage rates of rise and fall and attenuate the high frequency recharging currents caused by cable capacitance. The motor choke is also to be installed in multiple motor applications. The recharging current amplitudes are higher, the higher are the pulse frequency/voltage rate of rise and the effective capacitance through the motor cables. This means on average also higher currents can be found. As fault currents occurring on the motor current circuit are also detected by earth current detection, pulses may be disabled and fault shutdowns may occur when long motor cables are used and the earth fault threshold is set too low. The motor choke reduces these fault currents and is to be used if cable length is
excessive and the 8230 frequency inverter is operated “ also Table 24.
Alternatively a 8230 frequency inverter motor filter is to be used if required for insulation protection.

If an output choke is fitted, the motors used must be designed for the maximum voltage ratings since a reduction in the maximum voltage amplitude can only be expected when longer cables (approx. 150 m) are used.

2.5.6.1 Encoder interface The encoder interface is an assembly for detecting the speed when using an incremental encoder. It is required for 8230 frequency inverter drive controls with a speed actual value encoder to achieve higher control quality and an extension of the speed adjustment range to values above 1:1000.
The assembly consists of:
Encoder interface
Bus adapter cable 40 mm
Supply adapter cable 40 mm
Mechanical fixings
Bus terminator

The encoder interface is connected to the I/O bus through bus connector X101. The supply to the assembly is through connector X109 from the +7 V and +24 V supply voltages in the 8230 frequency inverter. The voltage controllers for the encoder interface generate the supply voltage for the core system (the logic modules) and the supply voltages for the encoder. The incremental encoder is connected through terminal strip X10. The terminal wiring for the X10 encoder connection terminal strip on the encoder interface is shown in Fig. 15.
38 BA8230
Fig. 15: Encoder interface terminal wiring
The supply voltage for the incremental encoder can be taken either internally from the encoder interface or from an external voltage source. The external voltage source is then connected according to Fig. 15 to terminals X10:17 and X10:19.
If the incremental encoder is supplied internally through the encoder interface the supply voltage can be switched to either DC +5 V, DC +15 V or DC +24 V. Switching is achieved by moving jumper X11 to the appropriate position.

The symmetrical encoder signals (differential track signals) for Track 1, Track 1N,
Track 2, Track 2N, Track Z, Track ZN are detected and processed through differential input stages in a voltage range from approx. 3 V ... 24 V and are output to the terminals according to Fig. 15 as the signals TRACK1OUT, TRACK1NOUT, TRACK2OUT, TRACK2NOUT, TRACKZOUT, TRACKZNOUT for further use at a voltage level of DC +5 V. Output at the 15 V or 24 V voltage level is in preparation. The encoder track signals are monitored for wire break. The LEDs ARDY (Track 1 / Track 1N), BRDY (Track 2 / Track 2N), ORDY (Track Z / Track ZN) ... indicate that the track signals are intact, see Fig. 16.
If symmetrical encoder signals are connected, the two hook switches S20a and S20B are in position 1. Asymmetrical encoder signals cannot be processed directly.
The zero pulses (Track Z / Track ZN) of the incremental encoder are not processed at the present time and need not be connected.
When a 5 V encoder supply voltage is used, connection of a sense signal at E83 :X10
terminal :12/:14 allows compensation for voltage drops. Through internal calibration the voltage actual value is processed and the voltage drop is controlled within the adjustment range (TTL level).
The maximum cable length for connecting an incremental encoder however is also limited by the maximum frequency which can be transmitted. The notes on connection must be observed.

Ratings and connection To compensate for interference (push-pull interference) on cables, encoders with two
pulse tracks offset through 90° electrical and with complimentary outputs are used. To guarantee high resistance to interference it is recommended that encoders with a 24 V operating voltage are used.
The quality of the encoder cable is critical for the maximum encoder frequency which can be transmitted. Screened cables with conductors twisted in pairs are to be used. The screen is connected at both ends. In the system, encoder cables must be laid separately from power cables (spacing
0.3 m for up to 200 m cable length). It is recommended that the encoder cable be connected directly to the encoder interface, without any separation points. The screen is to be fully surrounded by clamps and connected to the control electronics cassette. See section 3.6 for supplementary notes on connection.

To achieve high resolution for speed measurement the encoder should have a high number of pulses per revolution. At high motor speeds this is counteracted by the limit on transmission frequency resulting from long encoder cables and the technical data of incremental encoders. Encoders of 1000 pulses per revolution and above are recommended. Depending on the manufacturer, incremental encoders using a 24 V supply voltage operate up to a maximum sensing frequency of approx. 160 kHz.
Example configurations Cable length = 100 m, frequency limit = 100 kHz.

2.7.2.2 Description of Terminal :1/:2 5 DC +24 V terminal strip Potential-free and short-circuit resistant voltage inputs / outputs source to supply the standard terminal strip.
Terminal :2/:26 DC 0 V
Reference potential for +24 V terminal :1/:25
Terminal :3/:4 PTC MOTOR-TEMP
Connection for motor thermistor resistor for motor temperature
monitoring.If the processing electronics respond, “Motor overtemperature” is signalled. The inverter shuts down with the error message “Motor overtemperature”. If no motor thermistor resistor is connected, terminals :3 and :4 are to be bridged.
Terminal :5 ON/STOP
The inverter is switched on by the rising flank of the +24 V signal.
When the link has been precharged the internal main contactor (DC) is energised. The inverter is shut down and the drive brought to a controlled standstill at LOW level. With the drive at a standstill the pulses are disabled, the main contactor (DC) is de-energised and the link is discharged (if a brake chopper is fitted). De­energisation of the internal main contactor and link discharge can be prevented by appropriate parameter settings (see section
4.4.3.). After an error is acknowledged, a new rising flank is required for
starting. If automatic restarting is selected, within the specified restart time no rising flank is required after the mains voltage returns if the ON/STOP signal is still HIGH.
Terminal :6 MANUAL/AUTOMATIC
Manual/Automatic changeover
LOW corresponds to manual and HIGH corresponds to automatic operation. The signal source controlling the inverter can be switched with this terminal. The source for manual or automatic operation is parameter-adjustable and can be set to terminal strip, control unit, PC serial interface, field bus 1, field bus 2.
Standard setting: Manual = Control unit Manual/automatic changeover is only possible from the terminal
strip.
Terminal :7 STOP
A flank from HIGH to LOW results in the drive being brought to a
controlled standstill at the braking ramp. On standstill, the pulses are disabled and the main contactor (DC) is de-energised. This signal takes effect from the sources terminal strip, BDE, serial interface and field bus. The stop function via the BDE control unit can be disabled using the handling software parameters.
Automatic = Terminal strip
54 BA8230
Terminal :8 FAST STOP
Show/Hide Bookmarks
Fast Stop function by a flank from HIGH to LOW.
The drive runs to zero at the parameter-adjustable “ramp fast stop”. The pulses are then disabled and the internal DC main contactor is de-energised. If the optional brake chopper with braking resistor is connected, the link is force-discharged after approx. 30 s.
Terminal :9 LEFT
Left, demand enable on HIGH
If “demand preset 0 ... +10 V" or “line current” is preset, operation in the left direction is enabled with a HIGH signal at terminal :9. Negative values at the demand input produce a demand of zero. If neither LEFT nor RIGHT is HIGH, no direction is enabled. If both LEFT and RIGHT are HIGH, the signal set first takes priority.
Terminal :10 DISABLE
Inverter disable
This disables the pulses on LOW and de-energises the internal DC main contactor. If the optional brake chopper with braking resistor is connected, the link is force-discharged after approx. 30 s.
Terminal :11 RIGHT
Right, demand enable on HIGH
If “demand preset 0 ... +10 V" or "line current” is preset, the right direction is enabled on a HIGH signal at terminal :11. Negative values at the demand input result in a demand of zero. If neither LEFT nor RIGHT is HIGH, no direction is enabled. If both LEFT and RIGHT are HIGH, the signal set first takes priority.

3 Transport, Installation and Connection

Show/Hide Bookmarks

3.1 Safety instructions During transport and on installation of each unit it is important to remember that the centre of gravity is not located at the centre of the unit itself. The asymmetrical loads resulting during transit and installation must therefore be taken into account accordingly.

Heavy units must always be lifted using suitable equipment and trained personnel. Units may only be transported in the correct position using the eyebolts provided. They may not be placed on their side for transportation purposes. A pallet must be used for transport with a forklift truck. Uniform distribution of the load is essential when lifting. The force applied to all eyebolts must be equal. The support cables may not vary more than 30 degrees from the vertical. Heavy vibration and severe shock must be avoided during transport and when lifting and lowering. After installation the eyebolts should be removed and stored safely in case they are needed in the future. Incorrect lifting and transportation of the units can cause severe or even fatal physical injury and extensive material damage. Build-in units are designed for wall-mounting. The securing bolts to be used must always be of the correct size (see section 3.4).
Please note the following when connecting inverters:
All work on the unit and its installation must be executed in accordance with the
national and local electrical regulations and conditions. This means that the inverter must be earthed correctly at the protective earth connections to ensure that no easily accessible part of the unit is at mains potential or carries any other dangerous voltage.
Attention! If inverters are not earthed it is possible for the casing to carry dangerous voltages
which can cause fatal or severe physical injury or extensive material damage.
Check that the load connected, i.e. the cables and motors, are not earthed.
Check the rated supply voltage and current as well as the motor data
according to the 8230 frequency inverter rating plate.
Build-in units must be installed in panelled cubicles or rooms which are only
accessible to trained personnel.
The user is responsible for ensuring that inverters and other equipment are
installed and connected in accordance with the accepted rules of technology and the local regulations in the country concerned. This must take into account the cable dimensions, fusing, earthing, isolation, separation, insulation monitoring and overcurrent protection in particular.
The safety instructions given inside the cover and in section 5.1 must be observed.

3.2 Storage 8230 frequency inverter are packed according to the climatic and other conditions expected in transit and in the country for which they are intended. All notes on the packaging concerning transport, storage and correct handling must be observed. The consignment may not be stored outdoors. Stacking is prohibited! Storage rooms must be dry and well ventilated.

Permitted storage temperature -25 ... +65 °C 8230 frequency inverter units contain high quality aluminium electrolytic capacitors.
Their reliability may be affected if they are stored in the uncharged condition for longer periods, particularly at high temperatures. 8230 frequency inverter can be stored without charge for at least 2 years, of which max. 5 months may be at storage temperatures of over 40 °C. The 8230 frequency inverter should be checked after this storage period has elapsed. The aluminium electrolytic capacitors should be reformed by suitably trained personnel before charging at the rated voltage. Please refer to section 7.4 for instructions on forming.

3.3 Transport The units may only be transported with forklift trucks when standing vertically on a pallet and in their cardboard packaging. When unpacked, transport is also possible using the eyebolts provided on the inverter. Uniform distribution of the load is essential. When lifting using the eyebolts the force on all bolts must be equal and vertical. Heavy vibration and severe shocks are to be avoided, for example when lowering. Always check the unit for completeness and any evidence of damage when unpacking.

If damage in transit is discovered, it must be recorded and reported immediately to the carriers.

3.4 Installation According to their protection class IP 20 all 8230 frequency inverter units are to be installed in clean dry rooms ventilated with sufficient clean cooling air according to the power losses involved. The rated 8230 frequency inverter data may vary in other protection classes. The volume of cooling air required for the power losses is to be provided, i.e. adequate ventilation must be ensured. The coolant temperature may not fall below 0 °C. If the coolant temperature is above 40 °C or 50 °C respectively at constant load torque and 150 % overload, the current must be reduced by 2 % per Kelvin up to max. 55 °C and if the unit is installed above 1000 m to max. 2200 m above mean sea level an additional current reduction of 1.2 % per 100 m must be taken into account accordingly. 8230 frequency inverter are designed for vertical wall mounting in switchgear cubicles, booths and boxes.

The following bolt connections (bolt sizes) are to be used for securing build-in units to the wall:

Cooling is fan-assisted. An adequate clearance above the unit (see section 2.8) is to
be provided to prevent heat build-up. Cooling air is fed in from below, where adequate clearances are also to be provided (see section 2.8). Internal air circulation must generally be prevented. Unsatisfactory ducting and air flow will result in overheating in the switchgear cubicle.

3.5 Connection and wiring We recommend that 3-phase cables with the cross-sections stated in Table 23 below should be used for the power connections (the motor and mains supply). For reasons of electromagnetic compatibility the motor connection cable used should be a 3-phase cable with a concentric protective conductor. This protective conductor (screen sleeve) in the motor cable is to be earthed at both ends. A connection bracket (option) is available for connecting several cables to a power connection strap.

The screw connections are to be secured to prevent loosening through vibration and temperature fluctuation, using a suitable spring component. The bolt sizes and tightening torque levels are given in Table 23. Power cables must be secured to suitable cable brackets for strain relief purposes. The PE connection on the unit must be connected to a good earth. Mains supply cables and motor cables are to be laid separately according to the EMC connection instructions. When connecting the motor to the 8230 frequency inverter it is important to ensure that no other power circuit (e.g. reactive power compensation) is connected to the motor connection. This is particularly important when upgrading an existing system. The motor star point may not be earthed. Control and signal cables for the control electronics are to be laid and connected in accordance with the EMC connection instructions.
Connecting signal leads Electronic control circuits are considered low power circuits (< 2 A) according to DIN
EN 60204 Part 1 (VDE 0113 Part 1, 6). In approximation to this standard we recommend the following cross-sections for terminal strip wiring on fixed indoor systems for reasons of the mechanical strength and interference resistance:
Single core, multi-wire (stranded) cables at least 1 mm²,
in switchgear cubicles at least 0.5 mm²
Multi-wire screened cable at least 0.75 mm²
in switchgear cubicles at least 0.5 mm²

PVC insulated 3-phase cable 0.6/1 kV to DIN/VDE 0271.
Cables with a braided screen providing a high degree of cover (comparable to
control cables) are not required for supplying frequency inverters with regard to the EMC characteristics. These cables increase the capacitive load on the inverter so that it becomes necessary to reduce the cable lengths stated for NYCWY by approx. 40 %. Repeated parallel connection of these types of cables to increase the cross-section, if not stated expressly in Table 23, is only permitted with a proportional reduction in the lengths stated.
2)
At an inverter pulse frequency of 6 kHz the resulting permitted cable length is
reduced by 30 %.
3)
If very high control dynamics are required, e.g. an enclosed control surface of
≤0.25 %/sec at a ±50 % change in load at rated speed (VDI/VDE 2185), a direct
connection between the 8230 frequency inverter and the motor must be taken into consideration during the design stage. The maximum voltage drop over the motor cable may not exceed 1.75 %. This value also applies to lifting equipment. A 5 % reserve in the mains voltage is to be taken into account with regard to the given dynamic control characteristics over 95 % of the motor type point. In addition, if necessary, the drive characteristics in the event of mains undervoltage are to be taken into account (IEC 34.1: Requirements concerning electronic equipment).
4)
The output choke is used with the cable lengths stated in order to reduce the
capacitive load caused by the motor cable and also reduces the voltage rate of
rise. With cable lengths <150 m the motors used must be designed for the
maximum voltage loads stated in this section under “Notes: Winding insulation”.

The overall length is decisive in group drives or multiple motor supplies. The voltage

the motor cable is 3.0 % (DIN 18015). The cable lengths stated are maximum values. No increase in the cross-section to reduce the voltage drop over long motor cables has been taken into account and should be determined if necessary, taking the motor power factor into consideration.

To compensate for internal voltage drops 8230 frequency inverter units can simulate the output voltage in an over-modular manner. The voltage drop across the motor cable however cannot be compensated without direct measurement at the motor connection. However the motor current consumed increases almost proportionally through a reduced motor voltage at the same torque and increases the motor losses for a squared reduction in motor trip torque and a reduction in motor flux.
Inductive reactive resistance
If the values for the voltage drop are exceeded, 3-phase asynchronous motors with U

type point can be made to determine the revised rating point. Example: 50 Hz / 400 V changed to 47.5 Hz / 380 V The level of interference on the mains side which is associated with the power is
increased through longer motor cables. A mains filter is recommended if sensitive consumers are operated on the same mains supply and motor cable lengths exceed 50 m.

Notes on motor winding insulation
Show/Hide Bookmarks
With mains supply voltages UN of up to 460 V it is possible to use standard motors or motors with equivalent insulation characteristics with the 8230 frequency inverter. The 400 ... 460 V standard motors are designed for the voltage rates of rise and voltage peaks of up to 1300 V which occur during inverter operation. When using motors from other manufacturers it may be necessary to contact the supplier concerning the suitability of motors for inverter operation. 8230 frequency inverter motor filters are to be used if the insulation resistance of the motors and the max. permitted voltage in the motor terminal box do not match the 1300 V required and the permitted voltage
rate of rise for the winding insulation is < 3 kV/µs. If the motors do not meet these requirements, 8230 frequency inverter motor filters or motor chokes are to be provided.
Installation notes, braking resistors
Transport, Installation and Connection
All braking resistors are to be connected via short cables. Cable bundles are to be laid separately from other cables. For EMC reasons we recommend using only screened cables. The screen must be earthed at both ends and connected to the casing. The cable cross-sections must be rated at least according to the overcurrent protection device. Braking resistors carry dangerous voltages to earth and must be protected so that they cannot be touched.
Braking resistors are to be installed externally so that the cooling air and the ambient
temperature for 8230 frequency inverter units are not affected by the heat generated by the braking resistors.
An unrestricted flow of cooling air is essential for the braking resistors. The waste heat
is emitted upwards. A minimum clearance of 200 mm is to be provided from adjacent components, walls, roofs or similar. As electrical energy is converted in braking resistors the air and certain parts of the casing will inevitably become hot. The temperature may rise to 150 °K above the ambient temperature.

Notes on encoder connection
In the modes of operation “Speed control with encoder” and “Torque control with encoder” highly accurate speed actual value detection is necessary and incremental encoders must be used.
To compensate for the effects of interference (inphase interference) on the cables the encoders to be used have two pulse tracks offset through 90° electrical and complimentary outputs. To guarantee adequate interference resistance we recommend encoders with a 24 V operating voltage.
The quality and length of the encoder cable are criteria for the maximum encoder
transmission frequency. Screened cables with the conductors twisted in pairs are to be used. The screen is to be connected at both ends.
These cables must be laid in the system so that they are separate from power cables. We recommend the encoder cable should run directly to the encoder interface, i.e. with no interruptions. The screen is to be surrounded fully using the screen clamps supplied, to ensure a firm connection at the control electronics cassette.

The accuracy of the encoder and an undisrupted transmission capability particularly
for 5 V encoders due to their low interference resistance play a major part in determining the accuracy of speed detection.
See section 2.5.6.1, Encoder interface, for using encoders and the technical data of the encoder input.

3.6 Installation and connection Fig.39 shows an example of an ideal layout for a 8230 frequency inverter with instructions for EMC EMC components.
Fig.39: Example of cubicle layout, 8230 frequency inverter
Note:
The overview in Fig.39 illustrates the ideal position of components relevant to EMC. In order to achieve good EMC in the drive system the following basic rules are
recommended for cubicle construction, installation and layout. These measures are to be considered part of industrial EMC installation practice and are summarised here.
Function earth All inactive metal parts are to be well connected. Inactive metal parts are all conducting parts which are electrically separated from active parts by at least basic insulation and can only carry a voltage if a fault occurs. The function earth for the 8230 frequency inverter cubicle is most effectively provided by low-impedance connection (bare metal, low HF resistance, generous connections) of cubicle parts with the frames and inactive parts of the building (armouring and steel supports) which are to be included in potential compensation of the entire system. In addition to the screw connections for parts, broad flat bands with a large surface area are suitable as low-impedance connections. As far as possible parts made of aluminium should be used only to a limited extent and fitted using contact protection grease.
BA8230 79
Transport, Installation and Connection

A central connection is to be made between ground and the operating earth / protective conductor system to IEC 364-5. DIN VDE 0100 also applies.
Uniform reference potential should preferably be provided and all electrical equipment is to be earthed. It must be ensured that no external equipment can be damaged by the earthing of the control electronics in the 8230 frequency inverter.
Parts of the system and cubicles containing other 8230 frequency inverter units, control cubicles, construction and machine parts etc. are always to be connected in a star configuration to the earth/protective conductor system to prevent loops. If the system mainly involves drive cubicles, a method of earthing which is more efficient as far as EMC is concerned should be used on installation, i.e. earthing via a grid system.
Induced interference is to be dispersed over large metal surfaces. All equipment such as RFI filters (including standard profile parts as well as PE and screen rails) are to be fixed to metal component parts to ensure low impedance. The PE / screen rail is the central earthing point in the 8230 frequency inverter cubicle and in cubicles of 600 mm width and above is to be secured to the cubicle frame or the mounting plate through at least three electrical contact points. A metal rear panel onto which all units are mounted is particularly reco mme nded in a switchgear cubicle. If mounting plates are used whose surfaces are not good conductors, for example painted, anodised or yellow chromated, the surface coating must be removed at equipment contact points. Galvanised component parts for the cubicle and metal parts at contact points are ideal from the viewpoint of EMC. To achieve good EMC these components must be screened together directly to provide good contact. Cubicles in which the complete edge of side and rear panels is in contact with the cubicle frame are recommended. The door is to be included using a connection method which is effective at HF.
Screw connections on metal parts which are painted and anodised are to be fitted with special contact washers or the insulating coatings are to be removed. Low impedance contact surfaces must be cleaned thoroughly to remove paint before assembly. Protect all connection points against corrosion, using contact protection grease for example.
According to the concept of EMC protection zones all signal leads are to be fed into the cubicle at just one level, if possible, not at several different levels.
All switchgear cubicles involved in linked drives are to be connected with a potential
compensation cable of at least 25 mm² if they do not include a screen rail or this rail is not continuous.
No unswitched contactors, relays, solenoid valves, electromechanical meters, counters etc. may be used in a switchgear cubicle with the 8230 frequency inverter. All inductances installed on the same current circuit are to be connected with surge supressors. DC-activated coils are to be connected with a diode or Z diode and AC-operated coils are damped using a varistor or an RC component. If contactors without with surge supressors are used in an adjacent cubicle, the cubicles are to be separated by a metal partition.
Cables to the 8230 frequency inverter control electronics must be scr eened.

Ideally the wiring should be divided into groups: Power cables, power supply cables, analog signal leads, digital signal leads and the bus or data leads. Power cables and the signal and data leads should be placed in separate ducts or bundles. Signal and data leads should preferably run clos e to grou nded surfaces, e.g. support beams, metal rails, mounting plates or cubicle panelling. These
measures are intended to suppress any “crosstalk” between parallel cables. Cables which hang unsupported may act as passive or active antennas and can cause interference. Motor cables, mains supply cables and signal leads for the control electronics are to be spaced at least 0.2 m apart inside the switchgear cubicle. This spacing can be reduced where cables cross. Outside the switchgear cubicle the motor cables should be laid in separate bundles spaced at a distance of at least 0.3 m - and more when using longer parallel runs involving unscreened motor cables. No other current circuits may be fed through or on the motor cable. The following guidelines can be given as the minim um spa cing (a) between parallel screened signal leads and motor cables:
Up to 200 m a 0.3 m Up to 300 m a 0.5 m Up to 500 m a 1.2 m
It is always better to use a separate metal cable track for laying control cables.
Signal leads for the control electronics and control cables outside the switchgear cubicle are best laid on separate cable tracks to provide sufficient spacing to avoid interference. If no separate cable track can be provided, signal leads are to be partitioned off from power cables using chambers in the cable tracks and the chamber are to be fitted with covers. Cables for processing the motor temperature using thermistors are to be laid separately and never together with motor power circuits.
Mains and motor cables are to be PVC insulated 3-phase cables according to DIN VDE 0271 1986-06. If single conductors are used they should preferably be twisted at 1 turn per 5 m and bundled in groups of three. If this is not the case, current distribution may be disrupted and in extreme ca ses, in addition to cable overloading, the drive system may malfunction.
Practical experience with EMC has shown that motor connection cables with copper armouring or concentric corrugated protective conductors, for example NYCWY (3-core) should be used. If the screen is connected in a low-impedance configuration at both ends the screen sleeve / protective conductor guarantees good attenuation to reduce the HF interference radiated from the motor cable through high frequency recharging currents. The ground wiring should always have the maximum possible cross-section. Steel armoured motor cables are unsuitable for reasons of EMC.
To ensure a good EMC connection the motor cable at the frequency inverter side is to be connected using pipe clamps, terminal clamps or screw connections which surround the cable fully at the contact point to provide a good connection to the screen bus or mounting plate.

If contactors, motor protection switches or terminals are located on the screened motor cable, the screens of the cables connecte d at that point ar e to be cont inuo us and of low impedance. In the motor terminal box the screen is to be connected with the PE / PA. Metal cable screw connections (nickel plated brass) at the metal connection box (do not use a plastic connectio n box ) provides a very good connection between the screen and the motor casing. On the inverter side the screen is to be connected to the central screen rail and not directly to the unit.
For reasons of EMC the motor cable should be as short as possible. The frequency inverter should preferably be located close to the motor. Additional radio interference suppression measures may be necessary in systems which are physically very large, depending on the situation. In particular improvements in potential compensation may be necessary. The motor cable lengths stated in this section were calculated on the basis of trials and are the maximum guideline values with regard to the inphase current occurring. The inphase current limits the dynamics and causes additional losses in the inverter. With dynamic direction changes at the zero cro ssov er point it may be necessary to adjust some control parameters when commissioning drives without speed actual value detection, due to longer cables.
Analog and digital control leads for the 8230 frequency inverter control electronics and data leads are to be laid using screened cable. The screen is to be connected firmly at both ends for good potential compensation. Good potential compensation will be achieved if a star or grid type earth system is used consistently. Applying the screen twice on short spacing distances in the cubicle increases the interference resistance. When transferring analog signals of low amplitudes in the mV range a single-sided application of the screen in the switchgear cubicle may only be
necessary close to strong radiation fields, due to a low frequency “50 Hz hum”. Generally cable screens are always connected at both ends. This is the only way to ensure good interference resistance at high frequencies throughout the entire range of interference frequencies. Without pote nti al com pen sa ti on the screen on control cables should only be connected at one end, however, but this is always a compromise. The cable screens are to be applied directly after they enter the cubicle, as this is where the highest interference amplitudes occur. Apply the screen generously to the screen / protective conductor rail and secure the screen with cable clamps, screen connection terminals or hose clamps, depending on the system involved. Continue the screen up to the terminal strip or, if necessary, up to the assembly at the 8230 frequency inverter or external modules, without any interruptions. The internal screen contacting facilities on the aluminium slide-in rack for the control electronics, which use round clamps, are always to be used for making contact with the screen. So-called "pigtails” or similar must never be used for control leads. Such a path would be low impedance and the flow of the screen current close to signal conductors would allow the screen current to act as an interference current. The cable screen must always be connected directly at the end. The cables at the 8230 frequency inverter terminal block are to be divided into analog input and output cables and digital input and output cables and these groups are to be laid separately using screened cables with both ends of the screen connected. Alternatively a double screen control / data cable is possible. In this case the outer screen is earthed to the side of the unit and the inner screen is earthed at the other end. As these cables generally have screens made of foil, mechanical damage can occur easily, even with just slight bending and pressure. An additional compensation cable is always particularly recommended if the potential difference between the relevant earthing points is > 5 V. 25 mm² Cu is sufficient as an equalizer up to acable of 200 m. For longer cables, at least 35 mm² Cu are recommended.

Above that length two separate compensator cables of 16 mm² copper should be
used for reasons of EMC. The potential compensation cable should be laid so that the surface area enclosed between the signal cable and the compensation cable is as small as possible. In difficult cases where additional radio interference suppression measures are needed, twisting with the cable affected by interference is a very efficient method for effectively suppressing malfunctions.

When the 8230 frequency inverter is supplied by an external 24 V auxiliary voltage this voltage may not supply several consumers in different cubicles. Ideally each 8230 frequency inverter should have power supplies of separate potential.
The quality of the signal cable to the encoder is a critical factor for the maximum possible encoder frequency. Screened encoder cables with the conductors twisted in pairs, for example LIYCY 3 x 2 x 0.75 mm² at least, should always be used. The screen is to be connected well at both ends. Signal cables should preferably always be connected directly at the encoder interface, with no further terminals or separation points. Unused signal conductors are to be grounded.
Only signal cables with a tinned copper screen braid should be used. The braid should provide at least 85 % cover. Cables with a foil screen are less suitable as they are easily damaged by bending and pressure.
The screen is to be continuous to peripheral equipment such as demand potentiometers etc. Only one additional interruption point is permitted. This is to be such that less than 2 cm of the cable remain unscreened. The screens at both ends of the cable are to be connected through the screen rail (see Fig. 43). Various different round cable clamps are supplied with the unit for securing cable screens to the aluminium slide-in rack in the 8230 frequency inverter. It is to be secured using a M4 screw (see Fig. 44).

If a RFI filter is used it should be installed as close as physically possible to the cubicle feed point, taking the cooling air requirements into account. With this installation the inverter cubicle may not contain any other unfiltered current circuits to the motor, e.g. cables for external fans, as otherwise the inverter radio interference suppression will be limited. The filtered sections of the cable between the RFI filter and the commutation choke / supply terminals in the cubicle are to be screened or laid in armoured steel pipes or metal ducts (see Fig. 39) to avoid extraneous interference, for example through the motor cable if closely spaced and 30 cm in length. Under no circumstances may the RFI filter supply and return leads be placed in the same cable duct. RFI filters generate currents. According to prEN50178/VDE0160 a PE connection of at
least 10 mm² is required. If other unswitched auxiliary power circuits are included, separate filtering is to be provided (Example: Uninterruptable auxiliary voltage, auxiliary supply).
To prevent bridging of the RFI filter in the HF range the protective conductor may not be laid past the RFI filter to PE1 on the 8230 frequency inverter mains connection. The protective conductor is then connected to the lower terminal PE2 (see Fig. 39).
If a mains contactor is fitted, the contactor control cables must be laid separately from other control cables in the cubicle.
The 8230 frequency inverter has a built-in mains rectifier. After a short circuit a DC fault current can prevent the ELCB-protection switch from being triggered. Additional measures such as zeroing are therefore necessary or ELCB-protection switches which are sensitive to all currents can be used (VDE 0160 5.88). When rating the release current it is important to note that capacitive compensation currents occurring during operation can cause the interference suppression filters and cable screens to produce triggers in error. Depending on the filters involved, currents of up to approx. 300 mA can occur.
Important!
Operation of radio transmitters and radio telephones with a transmitter output capacity of >2 W is not permitted in the direct proximity of 8230 frequency inverter.
With lower power radio communication equipment and radio telephones operation is permitted when the 8230 frequency inverter is not open.

3.7 Specific measures for Depending on the environment, optional measures are necessary to ensuring electromagnetic comply with the EMC radiated interference conditions for drive converters. compatibility (EMC)
IEC1800-3/prEN61800-3 (IEC 22G/21/CDV); Industrial:
To comply with the EMC requirements, no further options are required for radio interference suppression in addition to special consideration of the installation regulations and the instructions given in this documentation together with installation of mains chokes (3-phase chokes) and the use of screened control cables. A RFI filter is recommended when using screened motor cables of above 50 m in length. If other equipment which does not meet the interference resistance requirements of this product standard or the values according to EN50082-2 is installed on the same mains supply, radio interference measures are to be co-ordinated with the mains operator (IEC1800-3 / prEN61800-3 / IEC 22G/21/CDV).
Increasing the interference resistance of low power equipment is often far less complex or expensive. In industry it is therefore more economical to increase interference resistance than to reduce the radiated interference. In industry the EMC of the units should be based on a balanced mix of radiated interference and interference resistance.
IEC1800-3/prEN61800-3 (IEC 22G/21/CDV)
Residential, business and trade facilities as well as small businesses on the public electricity supply network. A RFI filter is required in addition to the measures described for industry. Only the RFI filters stated in this operating manual guarantee compliance with the radio interference voltage according to limit EN55011 Class A (CISPR11 Class A). To meet these limits for radiated interference it is assumed that the cubicles used for the 8230 frequency inverter provide direct contact with the cubicle frame over the entire circumference of the side and rear panels. High coupling attenuation resistance is achieved by the cubicle function earth. In general no HF seals are required in cubicle doors for standard applications since the wavelength of the relevant radiated interference to be screened is approx. 0.5 ... 10 m. Screened copper-armoured motor cables of type NYCW Y or -730CY with a good, low-impedance earth at both ends are to be used. The length of this motor connection cable may not exceed 150 m without taking into account further ancillary factors such as earth fault conditions and the system configuration. The cables to the braking resistor are to be screened.
EMC radiated interference to DIN EN 50081 Part 2: Limit EN55011 Group 1, Class A (CISPR11 Class A)
The measures stated in the last section to meet the limits for the public electricity supply network are required for compliance with this basic EMC standard.

EMC radiated interference to DIN EN50081 Part 1: Limit EN55011 Group 1 Class B (CISPR11 Class B)
Compliance with the measures stated for CISPR11 Class A is assumed. In addition an inphase choke is to be used at the inverter output.
Compliance with the interference voltage limit to EN55011 Class B (CISPR11 Class B) is achieved with these measures. The length of the motor cables is limited to max. 60 m. In comparison to CISPR11 Class A, further measures relating to the design and layout of the switchgear cubicle are necessary for compliance with the interference limit CISPR11 Class B for radiated interference (30 MHz - 1000 MHz). In particular the switchgear cubicle must be fully sealed. Cubicles are to be designed to guarantee good HF protection, if necessary using adapter kits after consultation with the manufacturer.
High EMC efficiency of the design in this frequency range is generally only possible by means of earthing. All measures for function earthing must be executed with great care. Metal PG screw connections (nickel plated brass) are to be used for the screen contacts when feeding the screened control and power cables into the cubicle and the motor terminal box.
Installation close to sensitive measurement and detection systems
A motor du/dt filter, if not already used for motor insulation protection, can be installed to further reduce any interference radiated by the motor cable, in addition to the measures stated for public electricity supply networks or the residential sector. A du/dt filter is particularly recommended near sensitive measurement or detection equipment, sensors or comparable sensitive control units. This also applies particularly if radio signals in the long and medium wave band are used during operation for controlling the plant, e.g. transponder signals.
Important!
The classification of the measures stated here applies only to connection to an earthed network.
