Warning! Dangerous electrical voltage!
Before commencing the installation
• Disconnect the power supply of the device.
• Ensure that devices cannot be accidentally restarted.
• Verify isolation from the supply.
• Earth and short circuit.
• Cover or enclose neighbouring units that are live.
• Follow the engineering instructions (AWA) of the device concerned.
• Only suitably qualified personnel in accordance with EN 50 110-1/-2 (VDE 0105 Part 100) may work on this device/system.
• Before installation and before touching the device ensure that you are free of electrostatic charge.
• The functional earth (FE) must be connected to the protective earth (PE) or to the potential equalisation. The system installer is responsible for implementing this connection.
• Connecting cables and signal lines should be installed so that inductive or capacitive interference do not impair the automation functions.
• Install automation devices and related operating elements in such a way that they are well protected against unintentional operation.
• Suitable safety hardware and software measures should be implemented for the I/O interface so that a line or wire breakage on the signal side does not result in undefined states in the automation devices.
• Ensure a reliable electrical isolation of the low voltage for the 24 volt supply. Only use power supply units complying with IEC 60 364-4-41 (VDE 0100 Part 410) or HD 384.4.41 S2.
• Deviations of the mains voltage from the rated value must not exceed the tolerance limits given in the specifications, otherwise this may cause malfunction and dangerous operation.
• Devices that are designed for mounting in housings or control cabinets must only be operated and controlled after they have been installed with the housing closed. Desktop or portable units must only be operated and controlled in enclosed housings.
• Measures should be taken to ensure the proper restart of programs interrupted after a voltage dip or failure. This should not cause dangerous operating states even for a short time. If necessary, emergency-stop devices should be implemented.
• Wherever faults in the automation system may cause damage to persons or property, external measures must be implemented to ensure a safe operating state in the event of a fault or malfunction (for example, by means of separate limit switches, mechanical interlocks etc.).
• According to their degree of protection frequency inverters may feature during operation live, bright metal, or possibly moving, rotating parts or hot surfaces.
• The impermissible removal of the necessary covers, improper installation or incorrect operation of motor or frequency inverter may cause the failure of the device and may lead to serious injury or damage.
• The relevant national regulations apply to all work carried on live frequency inverters.
• The electrical installation must be carried out in accordance with the relevant regulations (e. g. with regard to cable cross sections, fuses, PE).
• All work relating to transport, installation, commissioning and maintenance must only be carried out by qualified personnel. (IEC 60 364 and HD 384 and national work safety regulations).
• Installations fitted with frequency inverters must be provided with additional monitoring and protective devices in accordance with the relevant safety regulations etc. Modifications to the frequency inverters using the operating software are permitted.
• Emergency stop devices complying with IEC/EN 60 204-1 must be effective in all operating modes of the automation devices. Unlatching the emergency-stop devices must not cause restart.

– Other independent devices for monitoring safety-related
variables (speed, travel, end positions etc.).
– Electrical or non-electrical system related measures
(interlocks or mechanical interlocks).
– Live parts or cable connections of the frequency inverter
must not be touched after it has been disconnected from the power supply due to the charge in capacitors. Appropriate warning signs must be provided.

Selection criteria

Frequency inverter characteristics
The DF5 series convert the voltage and frequency of an existing three-phase supply to a DC voltage and use this voltage to gene­rate a three-phase supply with adjustable voltage and frequency. This variable three-phase supply allows stepless variability of three-phase asynchronous motors.

Selection criteria
The frequency inverter is selected to suit the rated motor current. The output rated current of the frequency inverter must however, be greater than or equal to the rated motor current.
The following drive data is assumed to be known:
type of motor (three-phase asynchronous motor),
mains voltage = supply voltage of the motor (e.g. 3 ~ 400 V),
rated motor current (guide value, dependent on the circuit type
and the supply voltage),
load torque (quadratic, constant, with 1.5-times the starting torque),
ambient temperature (maximum temperature 40 °C).
With the parallel connection of multiple motors to the
h
output of a frequency inverter, the motor currents are subject to vector addition, i.e. the active in-phase current and reactive current components are added separately. Select the frequency inverter rating to ensure that the total current can be supplied by the frequency inverter.
If a motor switches during operation on the output of a
h
frequency inverter, the motor draws a multiple of its rated current. Select the rating of the frequency inverter to ensure that the starting current plus the sum of the currents of the running motors does not exceed the rated output current of the frequency inverter.
The rated output current of the frequency inverter can be found in the technical data in the Appendix from Page 107.

Intended use

The DF5 series frequency inverters are not domestic appliances. They are designed only for industrial use as system components.
The DF5 series frequency inverters are electrical apparatus for controlling variable speed drives with three-phase motors. They are designed for installation in machines or for use in combination with other components within a machine or system.
After installation in a machine, the frequency inverters must not be taken into operation until the associated machine has been confirmed to comply with the safety requirements of Machinery Safety Directive (MSD) 89/392/EEC and meets the requirements of EN 60204. The user of the equipment is responsible for ensuring that the machine use complies with the relevant EU Directives.
The CE-mark attached to the DF5 series frequency inverters confirm that, when used in a typical drive configuration, the apparatus complies with the European Low Voltage Directive (LVD) and the EMC Directives (Directive 73/23/EEC, as amended by 93/68/EEC and Directive 89/336/EEC, as amended by 93/68/ EEC).
Frequency inverters of the DF5 series are suitable for use in public and non-public networks in the described system configuration. Depending on their location of use, external filtering may be necessary.

Connection to the mains

The DF5 series frequency inverters can be used without limitation with every type of electrical grid (Electrical grids according to IEC 364
-3).

Electrical grid types

Electrical grids with a direct earthing point (TT/TN
-systems):
Operation of the frequency inverters of the DF5 series with TT
-systems is possible without limitation. Adhere to the rated
TN data of the DF5 series frequency inverters.
If many frequency inverters with a single-phase supply are
h
connected to the mains, the symmetric distribution on all three mains poles should be considered as well as the loading of the common neutral pole (mains r.m.s current). If necessary, the cross-section of the neutral pole must be increased, if it conducts the total current of all single­phase devices.
Grids with isolated centre point (IT
-systems):
Operation of the frequency inverters of the DF5 series with IT
-systems is only conditionally possible. A prerequisite is a
suitable device (isolation monitoring), which monitors earth faults and isolates the frequency inverter from the mains.
Caution!
With an earth fault in an IT
-system, the capacitors of the
frequency inverter which are switched to earth are subject to a very high voltage. Therefore, safe operation of the frequency inverter cannot be guaranteed. The situation can be remedied with an additional isolating transformer with an earthed centre point on its secondary, which is then used to supply the input of the frequency inverter. This constitutes an individual TN-system for the frequency
-/
inverter.

Mains voltage, Mains frequency

The rated data for the frequency inverters of the DF5 take the European and American standard voltages into account:
230 V, 50 Hz (EU) and 240 V, 60 Hz (USA) with DF5-322,
400 V, 50 Hz (EU) und 460 V, 60 Hz (USA) with the DF5-340
The permitted mains voltage range is:
230/240 V: 180 V 0% to 252V+0%
400/460 V: 342 V 0% to 506V+0%
The permissible frequency range is 47 Hz – 0% to 63Hz+0%. The device assignment of the motor rating to the mains voltage is
listed in Section Technical Data, Page 107 in the Appendix.

Connection to the mains

Interaction with compensation devices

The DF5 series frequency inverters only accept a minimal funda­mental reactive power from the AC voltage supply. Compensation is therefore unnecessary.
Caution!
Operation of the frequency inverters of the DF5 series on the mains with p.f. correction equipment is only permitted when this equipment is dampened with chokes.

Fuses and cable cross-sections

When the devices are connected to the mains, the fuses and cable cross-sections which are required are dependent on the rating of the frequency inverter and the operation mode of the drive.
Caution!
The voltage drop under load conditions should be consi­dered when selecting the cable cross-section. Compliance to further standards (e.g. VDE 0113, VDE 0289) is the responsibility of the user.
The recommended fuses and the assignment of the DF5 series frequency inverters are listed in Section Cables and fuses”, Page 112 in the Appendix.
The national and regional standards (e.g. VDE 0113, EN 60204) must be observed and the necessary approvals (e.g. UL) at the site of installation must be fulfilled.
When the device is operated in a UL
-approved fuses, fuse bases and cables can be used.

The frequency inverter is internally equipped with a mains rectifier. With a short circuit to an exposed conductive part, a fault DC current can block the trip of the alternating current sensitive or pulse current sensitive residual-current circuit-breaker and thus eliminate the protective function. We therefore recommend the use of:
•“Pulse current sensitive residual-current circuit-breakers with a rated current f 30 mA with frequency inverters with a single­phase supply ( .
•”Universal current sensitive residual-current circuit-breakers with a rated current f 300 mA with frequency inverters with a single-phase supply on frequency inverters with three-phase supply .
The fault current recommended values of the DF5 series frequency inverters and the assigned radio interference filter are listed in Section Radio interference filter, Page 115 in the Appendix.
The leakage currents to ground (according to EN 50178) are greater than 3.5 mA. The PE terminal and the enclosure must be connected to the earth-current circuit.
Caution!
The prescribed minimum cross-sections of PE-conductors (EN 50178, VDE 0160) must be observed. Select the cross-section of the PE
-conductor as least as large as the
terminal capacity of the power terminals.
Spurios tripping of a residual-current circuit-breaker can be activated by the following:
by capacitive compensation currents of the cable screens, particularly with long screened motor cables,
by simultaneous connection of multiple frequency inverters to the mains supply,
with the use of additional chokes and filters (radio interference filter, line filter).
Caution!
Residual-current circuit-breakers may only be installed on the primary side between the incoming supply and the frequency inverter.
Warning!
Only use cables, residual-current circuit-breakers and contactors which have a suitable rating. Otherwise there is a danger of fire.

Mains contactor

The mains contactor is connected to the mains side input cables L1, L2, L3 (type dependant). It allows the operational switch on and off of the DF5 series frequency inverters from the mains supply as well as shutdown during a fault.
Mains contactors and the assignment with the DF5 series frequency inverters are listed in Section Mains contactors”, Page 113 in the Appendix.

Current peaks

In the following cases, a relatively high peak current can occur on the primary side of the frequency inverter (i.e. on the supply voltage side), which under certain conditions, can destroy the input rectifier of the frequency inverter:
Imbalance of the voltage supply greater than 3 %.
The maximum power output of the supply point must be at least
10 times greater than the maximum frequency inverter rating (approx 500 kVA).
If sudden voltage dips in the supply voltage are to be expected, e.g. : – a number of frequency inverters are operated on a common
supply voltage.
– a Thyristor system and a frequency inverter or operated on a
common supply voltage.
– power factor correction devices are switched on or off.
In the cases mentioned, a mains choke with approx. 3 % voltage drop at rated operation should be installed.

Mains choke

The mains choke (also referred to as a commutating choke or line reactor) is connected to the mains side input cables L1, L2, L3 (type dependent). It reduces the harmonics and leads to a reduction of the apparent mains current by up to 30 %.
A mains choke also limits current peaks which occur, caused by potential dips (e.g. caused by p.f. correction equipment or earth faults) or switching operations on the mains.
The mains choke increases the lifespan of the DC link capacitors and consequently the lifespan of the frequency inverter. Its use is also recommended:
with a single-phase supply (DF5-322),
with derating (temperatures above +40 °C, sites of installation
which are more than 1000 m above sea level),
with parallel operation of multiple frequency inverters on a single mains supply point,
with DC link coupling of multiple frequency inverters (interconnected operation).
Mains chokes and the assignment to DF5 series frequency inver­ters are listed in Section Mains choke, Page 116 in the Appendix.

Line filter, Radio interference filter

Line filters are a combination of mains chokes and radio interfe­rence filters in a single enclosure. They reduce the current harmo­nics and dampen high frequency radio interference levels.
Radio interference filters only dampen high frequency radio inter­ference levels.

Caution!
When line filters or radio interference filters are used, the leakage current to earth increases. Observe this point when residual-current circuit-breakers are used.

EMC guidelines

EMC guidelines
The limit values for emitted interference and immunity with vari­able speed drives are described in the IEC/EN 61800
-3 product
standard. When operating the frequency inverters of the DF5 series in coun-
tries which are part of the European Union (EU), the EMC guideline 89/336/EEC must be observed. The following conditions described must be observed in order to comply with this guideline:
Supply voltage (mains voltage) for the frequency inverter:
voltage fluctuation g10 % or less
voltage imbalance g3% or less
frequency variation g4 % or less
If the above mentioned conditions are not fulfilled, the respective mains choke must be installed (a Section Mains choke in the Appendix, Page 116).

EMC interference class

When installation is completed according to the Section ”Installa- tion, described in EMC guidelines Page 17 and with the use of a radio interference filter, the frequency inverters of the DF5 series comply to the following standards:
Emitted interference: IEC/EN 61800-3 (EN 55011 group 1, class B)
Noise immunity: EN 61800-3, industrial environment
Noise immunity
DF5 series frequency inverters conform with the requirements of the EC/EN 61800
-3 EMC-product standard for industrial use
(second environment), and the higher interference immunity values in domestic environments (first environment) with the assigned radio interference filters.
A domestic environment can be understood to be a connection point (transformer feeder) to which domestic households are also connected.
The EMC
-guideline for an industrial system requires electromag-
netic compatibility with the environment as a whole. The product standard examines a typical drive system in principle as a complete system, i.e. the combination of frequency inverter, cables and motor.
Emitted interference and radio interference suppression
DF5 series frequency inverters conform with the requirements of the EC/EN 61800
-3 EMC-product standard for domestic use (first
environment), and therefore also with the higher interference immunity values in industrial environments (second environment) with the assigned radio interference filters.
Ensure compliance to the limit values with the following points:
reduction of performance related interference with line filters and/or radio interference filters including mains chokes.
reduction of the electromagnetic emission interference by screening motor cables and signal cables.
compliance with installation guidelines (EMC compliant installation).
With frequency inverters, performance related and emitted interfe­rence increase with the switching frequency. The frequency of occurrence of performance related interference also increase with longer motor cables. When the respective radio interference filter is used, the EN 61800-3 standard is complied to as follows:
Conformity General Limited
First environment (Public power grid)
Second environ­ment (Industrial)

EMC compliance

09/01 AWB8230-1412GB

EMC compliant installation

The frequency inverter operates with fast electronic switching devices e.g. transistors (IGBT). For this reason, radio interference can occur on the output of the frequency inverter, which may effect other electronic devices located in the direct vicinity such as radio receivers or measurement instruments. In order to offer protection against this radio frequency interference (RFI), the devices should be screened and installed as far away as possible from the frequency inverters.
We recommend the following measures for EMC compliant instal­lation:
installation of the frequency inverter in a metallic, electrically conducting enclosure with a good connection to earth.
installation of a radio interference filter on the input of the frequency inverter in its direct vicinity
screened motor cables (short cable lengths).

Radio interference filter usage

The RFI filter should be installed in the direct vicinity of the frequency inverter. The connection cable between the frequency inverter and filter should be as short as possible. Screened cables are required if the length exceeds 30 cm.
The radio interference filters assigned for the DE5-LZ... series (a Section Radio interference filter in the Appendix, Page 115) enable the installation below (foot-print) or on the side (book-type) of the DF5 series frequency inverters.

Radio interference filters produce leakage currents which can be significantly larger than the rated values in the event of a fault (phase failure, load unbalance). The filters must be earthed before use in order to avoid dangerous voltages. As the leakage currents

are high frequency interference sources, the earthing measures must be undertaken with low resistance's on surfaces which as large as possible.

EMC measures in the control panel

To ensure EMC-compliant setup, connect all metallic components of the devices and of the control cabinet with each other using a large cross-section conductor with good HF conducting properties. Do not make connections to painted surfaces (Eloxal, yellow chro­mated). If there is no alternative, use contact and scraper washers to ensure contact with the base metal. Connect mounting plates to each other, and the cabinet doors with the cabinet using contacts with large surface areas and short HF wires.
An overview or all EMC measures can be seen in the following figure.

Fit additional RFI filters or mains filters and frequency inverters as closely as possible to each other and on a single metal plate (mounting plate).
Lay cables in the control cabinet as near as possible to the ground potential. Cables that hang freely act as antennae.
To prevent transfer of electromagnetic energy, lay interference­suppressed cables (e.g. mains supply before the filter) and signal lines as far away as possible (at least 10 cm) from HF-conducting cables (e.g. mains supply cable after a filter, motor power cable). This applies especially where cables are routed in parallel. Never use the same cable duct for interference-suppressed and HF cables. Where unavoidable, cables should always cross over at right angles to each other.
Never lay control or signal cables in the same duct as power cables. Analog signal cables (measured values, setpoints and correction values) must be screened.

Grounding

Connect the ground plate (mounting plate) with the protective earth using a short cable. To achieve the best results, all conduc­ting components (frequency inverter, mains filter, motor filter, mains choke) should be connected by an HF wire, and the protec­tive conductor should be laid in a star configuration from a central earthing point. This produces the best results.
Ensure that the earthing measures have been correctly imple­mented (a Fig. 14). No other device which has to be earthed should be connected to the earthing terminal of the frequency inverter. If more than one frequency inverter is to be used, the eart­hing cables should not form a closed loop.

Screening

Unscreened cables behave like antennae, i.e. they act as transmit­ters and receivers. To ensure EMC-compliant connection, screen all interference-emitting cables (frequency inverter/motor output) and interference-sensitive cables (analog setpoint and measured value cables).
The effectiveness of the cable screen depends on a good screen connection and a low screen impedance. Use only screens with tinned or nickel plated copper braiding, braided steel screens are unsuitable. The screen braid must have an overlap ratio of at least 85 percent and an overlap angle of 90°.

EMC compliance
The screened cable between frequency inverter and motor should be as short as possible. Connect the screen to earth at both ends of the cable using a large contact surface connection.
Lay the cables for the supply voltage separately from the signal cables and control cables.
Never unravel the screening or use pigtails to make a connection.
Figure 16: Inadmissible screen grounding (pigtails)
If contactors, maintenance switches, motor protection relays, motor reactors, filters or terminals are installed in the motor cabling, interrupt the screen near these components and connect it to the mounting plate (PES) using a large contact surface connection. The free, unscreened connecting cables should not be longer then about 100 mm.
Example: Maintenance switch
In an EMC-compliant control cabinet (metal-enclosed, damped to about 10 dB), the motor cables do not need to be screened provided that the frequency inverter and motor cables are spatially separated from each other and arranged in a separate partition from the other control system components. The motor cable scree­ning must then be connected via a large surface area connection at the control cabinet (PES).
The control cable and signal (analog setpoint and measured value) cable screens must be connected only at one cable end. Connect the screen to ground using a large-area contact surface; ensure that the connection has a low impedance. Digital signal cable screens must be connected at both cable ends with large-surface, low-resistance connections.

Electrical connection

In this section, you will find information for connection of the motor and the supply voltage to the power terminals, and the signal cables to the control terminals and signalling relay.
Warning!
The wiring stages may only commence after the frequency inverters have been correctly installed and attached. Otherwise, there is a danger of electrical shock or injury.
Warning!
Wiring may only be carried out under no voltage conditions.
Warning!
Only use cables, residual-current circuit-breakers and contactors which have a suitable rating. Otherwise there is a danger of fire.
