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:

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

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.

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.

You reverse the direction of rotation of the motor shaft with frequency inverter operation on the DF5 by:
A
exchanging two of the phases connected to the motor.
triggering terminal 1 (FWD = clockwise) or
2 (REV = anticlockwise).
applying a control command via the interface or fieldbus inter­face connection.
The speed of a three-phase motor is determined by the number of pole pairs and the frequency. The output frequency of the DF5 series frequency inverter can be varied infinitely in the range from
0.5 to 360 Hz.
Connection of pole-changing three-phase motors (Dahlander changing pole motors), rotor-fed three-phase commutator shunt motors (slipring rotor) or reluctance motors, synchronous motors and servo motors is possible, when they are approved for use with frequency inverters by the motor manufacturer.
Warning!
The operation of a motor with speeds higher than the rated speed (nameplate) can cause mechanical damage to the motor (bearings, unbalance) and the machinery to which it is connected and can lead to dangerous opera­ting conditions!
If you use a motor filter or a sinusoidal filter here, the rate of voltage rise can be limited to values of approx. 500 V/ms (DIN VDE 0530, IEC 2566).
In the factory default setting, frequency inverters of the DF5 series have a clockwise rotating field. Rotation of the motor shaft to the right is achieved by connecting the motor and frequency inverter terminals as follows:

Caution!
Uninterrupted operation in the lower frequency range (less than approx. 25 Hz) can lead to thermal damage (overheating) with self-ventilated motors. Possible counter-measures include: Over-dimensioning or external cooling independant of motor speed.

Installation
Parallel connection of motors on a frequency inverter
The DF5 series frequency inverters can control multiple motors connected in parallel. If differing motor speeds are required, they must be selected via the number of pole pairs and/or the gear transmission ratio.

Caution!
If a frequency inverter controls a number of motors in parallel, the contactors for the individual motors must be designed for AC
-3 operation. You may not use the mains
contactors from the table in the Appendix Section ”Mains contactors, Page 113. These mains contactors are only designed for the mains (primary) currents of the frequency inverter. If they are used in the motor circuit, the contacts could weld.
The load resistance on the output of the frequency inverter is reduced by parallel connection of the motors. The total stator inductivity is reduced and the leakage capacitance increases. As a result, the current distortion is larger when compared to operation with a single motor load. In order to reduce the current distortion, chokes or sinusoidal filters can be used on the frequency inverter output.
The current consumption of all the connected motors may

If motors with large differences in output power (e.g. 0.37 kW and
2.2 kW) are connected in parallel to the output of a frequency inverter, problems can occur during the start phase and at low speeds. It is possible, that motors with a low motor rating are unable to develop the required torque. This is due to the relatively high ohmic resistance's in the stators of these motors. They require a higher voltage during the start phase and at low speeds.
Motor cable
Only screened motor cables may be used for EMC related compa­tability. The length of the motor cable and the associated use of further components has an influence on the operating mode and the operational behaviour.

Motor filters, dv/dt-filters, sinusoidal filters
Motor filters (chokes) compensate for capacitive currents with long motor cables and with grouped drives (multiple connection of parallel drives to a single inverter).
The use of motor filters is recommended (observe the manufac­turers instructions):
with grouped drives
with the operation of three-phase current asynchronous motors
with maximum frequencies greater than 200 Hz,
with the operation of reluctance motors or permanently-excited synchronous motors with maximum frequencies greater than 120 Hz.
With dv/dt filters, the voltage on the motor terminals are limited to values less than 500 V/ms. They should be applied with motors with unknown or insufficient withstand voltage for the insulation.
Caution!
During the engineering phase, the voltage drop asso­ciated with motor filters and dv/dt filters must be consi­dered as it can be up to 4 % of the frequency inverter output voltage.
When sinusoidal filters are used, the motors are supplied with voltage and current which is almost sinusoidal.
Bypass operation
If you want to have the option of operating the motor with the frequency inverter or directly from the mains supply, the incoming supplies must be locked mechanically:
Caution!
Switch-over between the frequency inverter and the mains supply must be undertaken in a no voltage state.
Warning!
The frequency inverter outputs (U, V, W) may not be connected to the mains voltage (destruction of the device, danger of fire).

4 DF5 Operation

This section describes how to commission the DF5 series frequency inverters and deals with issues that need to be observed during its operation.

Initial startup

Observe the following points before you take the frequency inverter into operation:
Ensure that the power cables L and N or L1, L2 and L3 as well as the frequency inverter outputs U, V and W are correctly connected.
The control lines must be connected correctly.
The earth terminal must be connected correctly.
Only the terminals marked as earthing terminals must be
earthed.
The frequency inverter must be installed vertically on a non­flammable surface (e.g. a metal surface).
• Remove any residue from wiring operations – such as pieces of wire – and all tools from the vicinity of the frequency inverter.
Make sure that the cables connected to the output terminals are not short-circuited or connected to earth.
Ensure that all terminal screws have been tightened sufficiently.
Make sure that the frequency inverter and the motor are correct
for the mains voltage.
The configured maximum frequency must match the maximum operating frequency of the connected motor.
Never operate the frequency inverter with opened power section covers. The front enclosure must be closed and secured with the screw provided.
The control signal terminals are wired as follows.

DF5 Operation
09/01 AWB8230-1412GB
Caution!
Check the following points during or after the “initial operation so that damage to the motor does not occur:
Was the direction of rotation correct?
Has a fault occurred during acceleration or
deceleration?
Was the frequency display correct?
Did any unusual motor noises or vibrations occur?
If a fault has occurred due to overcurrent or overvoltage, increase the acceleration or deceleration time (a Section ”Acceleration time 1, Page 76 and Section Deceleration time 1 Page 77).
By default, the ON key and the potentiometer on the keypad (a Fig. 39 and a Table 7) have no functions assigned to them. For details about activating these operator controls, see Section Setting the frequency and start command parameters, Page 78.

DF5 Operation

Operational warning message

09/01 AWB8230-1412GB
Warning!
If the supply voltage recovers after a brief failure, the motor may restart automatically if a start signal is still present. If personnel are endangered as a result, an external circuit must be provided which excludes a restart after voltage recovery.
Warning!
If the frequency inverter has been configured so that the stop command is not issued via the OFF key on the LCD keypad, pressing the OFF key will not switch off the motor. A separate Emergency-Stop switch must be provided in the case.
Warning!
Maintenance and inspection of the frequency inverter may only be undertaken at least 5 minutes after the supply voltage has been switched off. Failure to observe this point can result in electric shock as a result of the high voltages involved.
Warning!
Never pull on the cable to unplug connectors (e.g. for fan or circuit boards).
Warning!
If a malfunction is responded to by a reset, the motor will start automatically if a start signal is applied at the same time. To avoid the risk of serious or fatal injury to personnel, you must ensure that the start signal is not present before acknowledging an error message with a reset.
Warning!
When the supply voltage for the frequency inverter is applied when the start signal is active, the motor will start immediately. Make sure that the start signal is not active before the supply voltage is switched on.
Warning!
Cables or plug connectors may not be connected or disconnected during operation when the supply voltage is switched on.
Caution!
To prevent a risk of serious or fatal injury to personnel, never interrupt the operation of the motor by opening the contactors installed on the primary or secondary side.
The ON key is functional only if the corresponding para-
h
meters of the frequency inverter have been configured accordingly (a Section Setting the frequency and start command parameters, Page 78).
Before operating motors at frequencies above the stan-
h
dard 50 or 60 Hz, contact their manufacturers to verify that the motors are suitable for operation at higher frequencies. The motors could otherwise incur damage.

Programming the control signal terminals
Programmable digital inputs 1 to 5
09/01 AWB8230-1412GB
You can assign various functions to terminals 1 to 5. Depending on your requirements, these terminals can be configured as follows:
clockwise start signal (FWD),
anticlockwise start signal (REV),
selection inputs for various fixed frequencies (FF1 to FF4),
reset input (RST),
etc.
The terminal function for each of the programmable digital inputs 1 to 5 occurs via PNU C01 to C05, i.e. you use PNU C01 to specify the function of digital input 1, PNU C02 to specify the function of digital input 2, etc. You cannot, however, assign the same function to two inputs.
Programmable digital inputs 1 to 5 are configured as make contacts by default. If, therefore, the function of an input terminal is to be activated, the corresponding input must be closed (i.e. the input terminal is connected to terminal P24). Conversely, to deac­tivate the input terminal, the input must be opened.
Caution!
If an EEPROM error occurs (fault message E08), all parameters must be checked to ensure that they are correct (particularly the RST input).

If required, the digital inputs can be configured as break (NC) contacts. For this purpose, under PNU C11 to C15 (corresponding to digital inputs 1 to 5), 01 is to be input. An exception exists only for inputs which you configure as RST (reset) or as PTC (PTC ther­mistor input). These inputs can only be operated as make (NO) contacts.
Caution!
If you reconfigure digital inputs configured as FWD or REV as break contacts (the default setting is as a make contact), the motor starts immediately. They should only be reconfigured as break contacts when it is absolutely essential.

Issue start command

By default, the start command is issued through the inputs confi­gured as FWD or REV. If however, the start command is currently issued via the ON key on the keypad, set under PNU A02 the value 01 (start command via FWD/REV input) (a Section ”Start command, Page 78).
X Program one of the digital inputs 1 to 5 as FWD by setting the
corresponding PNU (C01 to C05) to 00.
X Program one of the digital inputs 1 to 5 as REV by setting the
corresponding PNU (C01 to C05) to 01.
Warning!
If the supply voltage for the frequency inverter is applied when the start signal is activated, the motor will start immediately. Make sure, therefore, that the start signal is not active before the supply voltage is switched on.
Warning!
If the FWD/REV input is opened (inactive state if FWD/REV is configured as a make contact) and then it is reconfi­gured as a break contact, it must be noted that the motor will start immediately after the reconfiguration.

Fixed frequency FF1 to FF4 selection

09/01 AWB8230-1412GB
With the digital inputs configured as FF1 to FF4 you can select up to 16 user-definable fixed frequencies (including frequency setpoints), depending on which of the inputs is active or inactive (a Table 13). It is not necessary to use all the fixed frequency selection inputs at the same time. Using only three inputs, for example, allows you to choose between eight fixed frequencies; with two fixed frequency selection inputs, four fixed frequencies are available for selection.
The fixed frequencies have a higher priority than all other setpoint values and can be accessed at any time through inputs FF1 to FF4 without needing to be enabled separately. Jog mode, to which the highest priority is assigned, is the only operation with a higher priority than the fixed frequencies.

Current setpoint value AT (4 to 20 mA)
When the digital input which has been configured as AT is active, the setpoint value is defined by the current flow (4 to 20 mA) on terminal OI. If however the AT input is inactive, the setpoint value is defined by the voltage present (0 to 10 V) at terminal O.

When the AL output is configured as a break contact (default setting), remember that there is a delay from the time the supply voltage is switched on until the AL output is closed, and a fault message relating to the AL output therefore appears for a short time after the supply is switched on.
Frequency value messages FA1/FA2
Please note that the programmable digital outputs (including the one configured as AL) are open collector types and therefore have different electrical characteristics than the signalling relay outputs (terminals K11, K12 and K14). In particular, the maximum voltage and current carrying capacity ratings are significantly lower than those of the relay outputs.
After the frequency inverter supply voltage has been switched off, the AL output remains active until the DC bus voltage has dropped below a certain level. This time depends, among other factors, on the load applied to the inverter.
The delay from the time a fault occurs until the AL output is acti­vated is about 300 ms.

Input/display frequency value

PNU F01 displays the current frequency setpoint value or the current fixed frequency. You can change the frequencies with the arrow keys and save the settings in accordance with the setting of PNU A01 and the fixed frequency stages FF1 to FF4 (digital inputs) (a Section “Fixed frequency FF1 to FF4 selection”, Page 56).
With PNU F01, you can change parameters even when the para­meter protection PNU b31 has been set (a Page 66).
Display/input frequency setpoint value
If you have not activated any fixed frequencies, PNU F01 displays the frequency setpoint value.
The frequency setpoint value can be assigned in one of three ways, depending on PNU A01:
• via the installed potentiometer on the keypad, PNU A01 = 00;

• via PNU F01 or PNU A20, PNU A01 = 02.
If you specify the frequency setpoint value with PNU A20 (a Page 78), you can enter a new value under PNU F01. This is automatically saved under PNU A20:
X Change the current value with the arrow keys. X Save the modified value with the ENTER key.
The saved value is automatically written to PNU A20.
Displaying/entering fixed frequencies
If you have activated the fixed frequencies via the functions FF1 to FF4 of the digital inputs, PNU F01 displays the selected fixed frequencies.
For information about changing the fixed frequencies, see Section“Input of the fixed frequency under PNU F01”, Page 56.

The setpoint can be defined using various methods:
• With PNU F01 or A20: Enter the value 02 under PNU A01.
• With the potentiometer on the keypad: Enter the value 00 under PNU A01.
• With a 0 to 10 V voltage signal or a 4 to 20 mA current signal at input terminals O or OI: Enter the value 01 under PNU A01.
• With the digital inputs configured as FF1 to FF4. After selection of the required fixed frequency stage using FF1 to FF4, the frequency for the respective stage can be entered.
The display of the setpoint value is independent of which method was used to set the setpoint value.

Voltage/frequency characteristics and boost
The boost with the V/f characteristic has the effect of boosting the voltage (and consequently boosting the torque) in the lower frequency range. The manual boost raises the voltage in the frequency range from the start frequency (standard setting 0.5 Hz) to half the base frequency (25 Hz with the standard setting of 50 Hz) in every operating stage (acceleration, normal operation, deceleration), independently of the motor load. With automatic boost, in contrast, the voltage is boosted according to the motor load. A voltage boost may cause a fault message and trip due to the higher currents involved.

PID controller

09/01 AWB8230-1412GB
The DF5 series frequency inverter is a PID controller. This can be used, for example, for flow and throughput controllers with fans and pumps. PID control has the following features:
The setpoint value can be issued via the frequency inverter keypad or via an external digital signal (fixed frequencies). Sixteen different setpoint values are possible. In addition, the setpoint can be defined with an analog input signal (0 to 10 V or 4 to 20 mA).
With the DF5, you can implement the actual value signal feed­back through an analog input voltage (of up to 10 V) or an analog input current (up to 20 mA).
The permissible range for the actual value signal feedback can be specifically matched (e.g. 0 to 5 V, 4 to 20 mA, or other ranges).

With the aid of a scale adjustment, you can match the setpoint signal and/or the actual value signal to the actual physical quantities (such as air or water flow, temperature, etc.) and represent them on the display.

The PID closed-loop control

P stands for Proportional, I stands for Integral and D stands for Differential. In control engineering, the combination of these three terms is termed PID closed-loop control, PID regulation or PID control. PID closed-loop control is used in numerous types of application, e.g. for controlling air and water flow or for cont­rolling pressure and temperature. The output frequency of the inverter is controlled by a PID control algorithm to ensure that the deviation between the setpoint and actual value is as small as possible. The following figure shows a block diagram representa­tion of a PID closed loop control:

P: Proportional component
This component ensures that the output frequency and the system deviation are subject to a proportional relationship. Using PNU A72, the so-called proportional gain (K
), expressed in %,
p
can be defined. The following figure illustrates the relationship between system
deviation and output frequency. A large value for K
results in a

quick reaction to a change of the system deviation. If, however, K is too large, the system becomes unstable.

I: Integral component
This component results in a correction of the output frequency by integration of the system deviation. In the case of purely proporti­onal control, a large system deviation causes a large change in the output frequency. It follows, then, that if the system deviation is very small, the change in the output frequency is also very small. The problem is that the system deviation cannot be completely eliminated. Hence the need for an integral component.
The integral component causes a continuous adding up of the system deviation so that the deviation can be reduced to zero. The reciprocal value of the integration gain is the integration time
=1/Ki.
T

With the DF5 series frequency inverters, set the integration time (T
). The value may be between 0.5 s and 150 s. To disable the
i
integral component, enter 0.0.
D: Differential component
This component causes a differentiation of the system deviation. As pure proportional control uses the current value of the system deviation and pure integral control values from previous actions, a certain delay in the control process always occurs. The D compo­nent compensates for this behaviour.
Differential control corrects the output frequency using the rate of change of the system deviation. The output frequency can there­fore be compensated very quickly.
K
can be set between 0 and 100 s.

gral component minimizes the existing system deviation the steady-state and the differential component ensures a quick response to a rapidly changing actual value signal.
As differential control is based on a differentiation of the system deviation, it is very sensitive and also responds to unwanted signals, such as interference, which can result in system instability. Differential control is normally not required for flow, pressure and temperature control.

Frequency control is the standard method of control used by many frequency inverters. A setpoint value is defined by a control unit (keypad) as an analog voltage or current signal, or via a 4 bit wide digital command applied to the control signal terminals.
With PID closed loop control, the inverters output frequency is controlled by a control algorithm to ensure that the deviation between the setpoint and actual value is kept at zero.
You can switch between both modes with PNU A71 (PID control active/inactive).

Temperature (°C), etc.
The setpoint and returned actual values can, for example, also be compared as percentages.

A useful scaling function (PNU A75) is also available. When these parameters are used, you can define the setpoint directly as the required physical quantity and/or display setpoint and actual values as physical quantities suitable for the process.
Additionally, analog signal matching (PNU A11 to A14) is avai­lable, with which a range based on the actual value feedback can be defined. The following graphs illustrate the mode of operation of this function.

Setpoint definition
There are three ways of entering the setpoints:
Keypad
Digital control signal terminal input (4 bit)
Analog input (terminals O-L or OI-L)
If the digital setpoints are defined through the control signal termi­nals, define the required setpoint value in PNU A21 to A35. The setting procedure is similar to the one which is used in frequency regulation mode (i.e. with a deactivated PID controller) for setting the respective fixed frequencies (a Section Fixed frequency FF1 to FF4 selection, Page 56).

You can specify the actual value signal as follows:

With an analog current on control signal terminal OI (maximum 20 mA)
One of the two methods mentioned is selected via PNU A76. To adapt the operation of the PID controller to the respective appli-
cation, the actual value feedback signal can also be matched as shown in Figure 89:

As evident from the graphs, the setpoint value must be within the valid range on the vertical axis if you have set functions PNU A11 and A12 to a value not equal to 0. Because there is no feedback signal, stable control cannot otherwise be guaranteed. This means that the frequency inverter will either
output the maximum frequency,
go to stop mode,
or output a lower limit frequency.

Scaling adjustment
Scaling adjustment and scaling allow the setpoint and actual value to be displayed and the setpoint value to be entered directly in the correct physical unit. For this purpose, 100 % of the returned actual value is taken as a basis. By default, inputs and displays are based on 0 to 100 %.
Example: In the first diagram in Figure 89, 20 mA of the feedback signal correspond to 100 % of the PID internal factor. If for example the current flow is 60 m 20 mA, the parameter is set to 0.6 with PNU A75 (= 60/100). With PNU d04, the process corrected value can be displayed and the setpoint value can be entered directly as a process corrected quantity.

Summary of the relevant parameters
With the DF5 series frequency inverters, the same parameters are used for both the frequency control mode and the PID mode. The designations of the respective parameter only relate to the
frequency control mode, however, as this mode is used in most cases. When the PID mode is used, some of the parameters have other designations.
The following table contains an explanation of these parameters in conjunction with the frequency control mode as well as the PID mode:

Settings in the frequency control mode
Before you use the PID mode, you must configure the parameters in frequency control mode. Observe the following two points:
Acceleration and deceleration ramp
The output frequency calculated by the PID algorithm is not imme­diately available on the frequency inverter output, as the output frequency is affected by the set acceleration and deceleration times. Even when, for example, a large D component is defined, the current output frequency is significantly influenced by the acceleration and deceleration time, and this causes unstable regu­lation.
To achieve stable behaviour in each PID closed loop control range,
Meaning of the parameters when used in Frequency control mode PID mode
P component of the PID controller I component of the PID controller D component of the PID controller Setpoint factor of the PID controller Input actual value signal for PID controller
After every acceleration and deceleration ramp parameter change, parameters PNU A72, A73 and A74 must be rematched.
Frequency jumps/range
Frequency jumps must be defined to meet the following require­ment: A change to the feedback actual value signal must not occur during execution of a frequency jump. If a stable operating point exists within a frequency jump range, operation between both end values of this range occurs.
Configuration of setpoint value and actual value
In PID mode, you must first of all specify how the setpoint is to be defined and where the actual value is to be supplied. The following
table provides the required settings: the acceleration and deceleration times should be set as low as possible.

It is not impossible to enter the setpoint value and the actual value through the same analog input terminal.
Please note that the frequency inverter brakes and stops according to the set deceleration ramp as soon as a stop command is issued during PID operation.
Scaling
Please set the scaling to the process-corrected physical quantity as required by your application, i.e. to flow, pressure, temperature, etc. For a detailed description, see Section Scaling adjustment”, Page 90.
Setpoint adjustment via digital inputs
The following points must be observed when setting the setpoint via digital inputs (4 bit):
Integrated potentiometer

PNU A01 = 00 PNU A76 = 00
Analog voltage on O-L
PNU A01 = 01

Analog current on OI-L
PNU A76 = 01
Assignment of the digital inputs
The DF5 series have five programmable digital inputs. Assign the
functions FF1 to FF4 to four of the inputs. Use PNU C01 to C05 for
this purpose, corresponding to the inputs 1 to 5 of the frequency
inverter.
Adjustment of the setpoint values
First of all, select the required number of different setpoints (up to
16) from the following table. Under PNU A21 (corresponds to the
first setpoint) to A35 (corresponds to 15th setpoint), enter the
required setpoint. PNU A20 and F01 correspond to setpoint 0.
If the setpoints are to be scaled, note that the setpoints
h
must be entered as process-corrected quantity values in accordance with this scaling.

If, for example, you only require up to four different setpoint values, only FF1 and FF2 need to be used; for five to eight different setpoint values, only FF1 to FF3 are required.
Activating PID mode
X Set PNU A71 to 01.
You can make this setting at the very start, before making all other settings.
Example for setting K
and Ti
p
As for the parameter changes, check the output frequency or the feedback actual value signal with an oscilloscope (a Fig. 84 to Fig. 87, Page 86).
Use two different setpoint values and switch between them using the digital control signal terminals.
The output should then always exhibit a stable behaviour.
Adjustment of the P component
Begin by setting only the P component, but not the I component and the D component.
X First of all, set a small P component via PNU A72 and check the
result.
X If necessary, slowly increase this value until an acceptable
output behaviour has been achieved.
Alternatively, set a very large P component and observe the beha­viour of the output signal. If the behaviour is unstable, set a lower value and observe the result. Repeat this process.
If the behaviour is unstable, reduce the P component. The P component is correct when the system deviation reaches a
static state within acceptable limits.
Setting the integral component and matching K
First of all, define a very small integral component in PNU A73.
X X Set the P component a little lower.
p
If the system deviation does not decrease, reduce the integral component a little. If the performance becomes unstable as a result, reduce the P component.
X Repeat this process until you have found the correct parameter
settings.
Note about the automatic voltage regulation (AVR) function
If you have set the AVR function (PNU A81) to 02, whereby the automatic voltage regulation function with an active PID closed loop control is deactivated only during deceleration of the motor, the motor may, depending on the application, start to “knock”. In such cases, the motor accelerates and decelerates repeatedly and smooth running of the motor is not guaranteed. In this case, set the AVR function to 01 (OFF).

Automatic voltage regulation (AVR)

Automatic voltage regulation (AVR)
The AVR function stabilizes the motor voltage if there are fluctua­tions on the DC bus voltage. These deviations result from, for example:
Unstable mains supplies or
DC bus voltage dips or peaks caused by short acceleration and
deceleration times.
A stable motor voltage provides a high level of torque, particularly during acceleration.

240, 380, 400, 415, 440, 460
If the mains voltage is higher than the rated motor voltage, enter the mains voltage under PNU A82 and reduce the output voltage in PNU A45 to the rated motor voltage.
Regenerative motor operation (without AVR function) results in a rise in the DC bus voltage in the deceleration phase (particularly with very short deceleration times), which also leads to a corres­ponding rise in the motor voltage. The increase in the motor voltage causes an increase in the braking torque. For this reason, you can deactivate the AVR function for deceleration under PNU A81.
The settings depend on the device series used:
200 V series: 200, 220, 230, 240 V
400 V series: 380, 400, 415, 440, 460 V

Example: With 440 V mains voltage and 400 V rated motor voltage, enter 440 under PNU A82 and 91 % (= 400/440 x 100 %) under PNU A45.
