1Safety information
WARNING
CAUT ION
NOTE
1.1Warnings, Cautions and Notes
A Warning contains information which is essential for avoiding a safety hazard.
A Caution contains information which is necessary for avoiding a risk of damage to the
product or other equipment.
A Note contains information, which helps to ensure correct operation of the product.
1.2General information
This guide applies to products which control electric motors either directly (drives) or indirectly
(controllers, option modules and other auxiliary equipment and accessories). In all cases the hazards
associated with powerful electrical drives are present, and all safety information relating to drives and
associated equipment must be observed.
Specific warnings are given at the relevant places in this guide.
Drives and controllers are intended as components for professional incorporation into complete
systems. If installed incorrectly they may present a safety hazard. The drive uses high voltages and
currents, carries a high level of stored electrical energy, and is used to control equipment which can
cause injury. Close attention is required to the electrical installation and the system design to avoid
hazards either in normal operation or in the event of equipment malfunction. System design,
installation, commissioning/start-up and maintenance must be carried out by personnel who have the
necessary training and competence. They must read this safety information and this guide carefully.
1.3Responsibility
It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure that the equipment is installed correctly with regard to
all instructions given in this guide. They must give due consideration to the safety of the complete
system, so as to avoid the risk of injury both in normal operation and in the event of a fault or of
reasonably foreseeable misuse.
The manufacturer accepts no liability for any consequences resulting from inappropriate, negligent or
incorrect installation of the equipment.
1.4Compliance with regulations
The installer is responsible for complying with all relevant regulations, such as national wiring
regulations, accident prevention regulations and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) regulations.
Particular attention must be given to the cross-sectional areas of conductors, the selection of fuses
or other protection, and protective ground (earth) connections.
This guide contains instructions for achieving compliance with specific EMC standards.
All machinery to be supplied within the European Union in which this product is used must comply
with the following directives:
2006/42/EC Safety of machinery.
2014/30/EU: Electromagnetic Compatibility.
10DFS1/DFS2 Power Installation Guide
Issue Number: 2
1.5Electrical hazards
The voltages used in the drive can cause severe electrical shock and/or burns, and could be lethal.
Extreme care is necessary at all times when working with or adjacent to the drive. Hazardous voltage
may be present in any of the following locations:
•AC and DC supply cables and connections
•Output cables and connections
•Many internal parts of the drive, and external option units
Unless otherwise indicated, control terminals are single insulated and must not be touched.
The supply must be disconnected by an approved electrical isolation device before gaining access to
the electrical connections.
The STOP and Safe Torque Off functions of the drive do not isolate dangerous voltages from the
output of the drive or from any external option unit.
The drive must be installed in accordance with the instructions given in this guide. Failure to observe
the instructions could result in a fire hazard.
1.6Stored electrical charge
The drive contains capacitors that remain charged to a potentially lethal voltage after the AC supply
has been disconnected. If the drive has been energized, the AC supply must be isolated at least ten
minutes before work may continue.
1.7Mechanical hazards
Careful consideration must be given to the functions of the drive or controller which might result in a
hazard, either through their intended behaviour or through incorrect operation due to a fault. In any
application where a malfunction of the drive or its control system could lead to or allow damage, loss
or injury, a risk analysis must be carried out, and where necessary, further measures taken to reduce
the risk - for example, an over-speed protection device in case of failure of the speed control, or a
fail-safe mechanical brake in case of loss of motor braking.
With the sole exception of the Safe Torque Off function, none of the drive functions must be
used to ensure safety of personnel, i.e. they must not be used for safety-related functions.
The Safe Torque Off function may be used in a safety-related application. The system designer is
responsible for ensuring that the complete system is safe and designed correctly according to the
relevant safety standards.
The design of safety-related control systems must only be done by personnel with the required training
and experience. The Safe Torque Off function will only ensure the safety of a machine if it is correctly
incorporated into a complete safety system. The system must be subject to a risk assessment to
confirm that the residual risk of an unsafe event is at an acceptable level for the application.

1.8Access to equipment
Access must be restricted to authorized personnel only. Safety regulations which apply at the place
of use must be complied with.
1.9Environmental limits
Instructions in this guide regarding transport, storage, installation and use of the equipment must be
complied with, including the specified environmental limits. This includes temperature, humidity,
contamination, shock and vibration. Drives must not be subjected to excessive physical force.
1.10Hazardous environments
The equipment must not be installed in a hazardous environment (i.e. a potentially explosive
environment).
DFS1/DFS2 Power Installation Guide11
Issue Number: 2
1.11Motor
The safety of the motor under variable speed conditions must be ensured.
To avoid the risk of physical injury, do not exceed the maximum specified speed of the motor.
Low speeds may cause the motor to overheat because the cooling fan becomes less effective,
causing a fire hazard. The motor should be installed with a protection thermistor. If necessary, an
electric forced vent fan should be used.
The values of the motor parameters set in the drive affect the protection of the motor. The default
values in the drive must not be relied upon. It is essential that the correct value is entered in the
Motor Rated Current parameter.
1.12Mechanical brake control
Any brake control functions are provided to allow well co-ordinated operation of an external brake
with the drive. While both hardware and software are designed to high standards of quality and
robustness, they are not intended for use as safety functions, i.e. where a fault or failure would result
in a risk of injury. In any application where the incorrect operation of the brake release mechanism
could result in injury, independent protection devices of proven integrity must also be incorporated.
1.13Adjusting parameters
Some parameters have a profound effect on the operation of the drive. They must not be altered
without careful consideration of the impact on the controlled system. Measures must be taken to
prevent unwanted changes due to error or tampering.
1.14Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
Installation instructions for a range of EMC environments are provided in the relevant Power Installation
Guide. If the installation is poorly designed or other equipment does not comply with suitable standards
for EMC, the product might cause or suffer from disturbance due to electromagnetic interaction with
other equipment. It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure that the equipment or system into
which the product is incorporated complies with the relevant EMC legislation in the place of use.
1.15Safe Torque Off
The Unidrive M700 / M701 has a single channel Safe Torque Off, whereas the Unidrive M702 has a
dual channel STO. The Safe Torque Off function provides a means for preventing the drive from
generating torque in the motor, with a very high level of integrity. It is suitable for incorporation into a
safety system for a machine. It is also suitable for use as a conventional drive enable input.
Machinery Applications
The Safe Torque Off function has been independently assessed by Notified Body, TüV Rheinland for
use as a safety component of a machine:
Prevention of unintended motor operation: The safety function “Safe Torque Off” can be used in
applications up to Cat 4, PL e according to EN ISO 13849-1, SIL 3 according to EN 61800-5-2/

3.1Safety information
Follow the instructions
The mechanical and electrical installation instructions must be adhered to. Any questions
or doubt should be referred to the supplier of the equipment. It is the responsibility of the
owner or user to ensure that the installation of the drive and any external option unit, and
the way in which they are operated and maintained, comply with the requirements of the
Health and Safety at Work Act in the United Kingdom or applicable legislation and
regulations and codes of practice in the country in which the equipment is used.
Stored charge
The drive contains capacitors that remain charged to a potentially lethal voltage after the
AC supply has been disconnected. If the drive has been energized, the AC supply must
be isolated at least ten minutes before work may continue.
Normally, the capacitors are discharged by an internal resistor. Under certain, unusual
fault conditions, it is possible that the capacitors may fail to discharge, or be prevented
from being discharged by a voltage applied to the output terminals. If the drive has failed
in a manner that causes the display to go blank immediately, it is possible the capacitors
will not be discharged. In this case, consult Nidec Industrial Automation or their authorized
distributor.
Competence of the installer
The drive must be installed by professional assemblers who are familiar with the
requirements for safety and EMC. The assembler is responsible for ensuring that the end
product or system complies with all the relevant laws in the country where it is to be used.
Enclosure
The drive is intended to be mounted in an enclosure which prevents access except by
trained and authorized personnel, and which prevents the ingress of contamination. It is
designed for use in an environment classified as pollution degree 2 in accordance with
IEC 60664-1. This means that only dry, non-conducting contamination is acceptable.
Hazardous areas
The drive must not be installed in a classified hazardous area unless it is installed in an
approved enclosure and the installation in certified.
Protection of equipment prior to installation
If the equipment is not to be installed immediately, it must be protected from moisture and
dust.
The equipment is delivered wrapped in plastic to protect it from mechanical damage. It is
recommended that wrapping is left in place until installation.

The following considerations must be made when planning the installation:
3.2.1Access
Access must be restricted to authorized personnel only. Safety regulations which apply at the place
of use must be complied with.
3.2.2Environmental protection
The DFS drives are offered with a choice of two Ingress Protection (IP) ratings:
IP23: Protection against fingers or similar objects larger than 12.5 mm. Protection from water falling
as a spray at any angle up to 60° from the vertical.
IP54: Protection against ingress of dust is not entirely prevented but must not enter in quantities that
may interfere with operation of the equipment. Protection from water splashing against the enclosure
from any direction.
The drive enclosure protects the internal components from:
•Moisture, including dripping water or spraying water and condensation. An anti-condensation
heater may be required, which must be switched off when the drive is running.
•Contamination with electrically conductive material
•Contamination with any form of dust which may restrict the fan, or impair airflow over various
components
•Temperature beyond the specified operating and storage ranges
•Corrosive gasses
During installation it is recommended that the vents on the drive are covered to prevent debris
(e.g. wire off-cuts) from entering the cubicle.
3.2.3Cooling
The heat produced by the internal components must be removed without its specified operating
temperature being exceeded. Note that a sealed enclosure gives much reduced cooling compared
with a ventilated one and may need to be larger and/or use internal air circulating fans.
3.2.4Fire protection
The enclosure is classified as a Fire Enclosure within the meaning of IEC 62109-1. It surrounds the
internal parts and is intended to minimize the spread of fire or flaming materials from within.

3.2.5Electromagnetic compatibility
WARNING
CAUT ION
Variable speed drives are powerful electronic circuits which can cause electromagnetic interference if
not installed correctly with careful attention to the layout of the wiring.
Some simple routine precautions can prevent disturbance to typical industrial control equipment.
If it is necessary to meet strict emission limits, or if it is known that electromagnetically sensitive
equipment is located nearby, then full precautions must be observed. In-built into the drive, is an
internal EMC filter, which reduces emissions under certain conditions. If these conditions are
exceeded, then the use of an external EMC filter may be required at the drive inputs, which must be
located very close to the drives. Space must be made available for the filters and allowance made for
carefully segregated wiring. For further details relating to EMC, refer to the EMC data sheet,
CT part number 0478-0575-01.
3.2.6Electrical safety
The installation must be safe under normal and fault conditions. Electrical installation instructions are
given in Chapter 4 Electrical installation on page 30.
Hot surfaces
Care must be taken when opening the cubicle door as some components may be very hot
to touch even after the 10 minutes discharge time.

WARNING
The drive contains capacitors that remain charged to a potentially lethal voltage after the
AC supply has been disconnected. If the drive has been energized, the AC supply must
be isolated at least ten minutes before work may continue.
Normally, the capacitors are discharged by an internal resistor. Under certain, unusual
fault conditions, it is possible that the capacitors may fail to discharge, or be prevented
from being discharged by a voltage applied to the output terminals. If the drive has failed
in a manner that causes the display to go blank immediately, it is possible the capacitors
will not be discharged. In this case, consult Nidec Industrial Automation or their authorized
distributor.
3.6Routine maintenance
The cubicle should be installed in a cool, clean, well ventilated location. Contact of moisture and dust
with the drive should be prevented.
Regular checks of the following should be carried out to ensure drive / installation reliability are
maximized:
Environment
Ambient temperatureEnsure the enclosure temperature remains at or below maximum specified.
Dust
MoistureEnsure the cubicle shows no signs of condensation.
Enclosure
Enclosure door filtersEnsure filters are not blocked and that air is free to flow.
Electrical
Screw connectionsEnsure all screw terminals remain tight.
Crimp terminals
Cables Check all cables for signs of damage.
Check that the drive module heatsinks and cooling fans are not gathering dust.
This includes the roof fans and the filters in the door. The lifetime of the lfan is reduced
in dusty environments.
Ensure all crimp terminals remains tight – check for any discoloration which could
indicate overheating.
3.7Cooling fan replacement
Refer to the drive module Power Installation guides for details of how to replace the drive module

Stored charge
The drive contains capacitors that remain charged to a potentially lethal voltage after the
AC and / or DC power supply has been disconnected. If the drive has been energized,
the AC and / or DC power supply must be isolated at least ten minutes before work may
continue. Normally, the capacitors are discharged by an internal resistor. Under certain,

their authorized distributor.
Permanent magnet motors
Permanent magnet motors generate electrical power if they are rotated, even when the
supply to the drive is disconnected. If that happens then the drive will become energized
through its motor terminals. If the motor load is capable of rotating the motor when the
supply is disconnected, then the motor must be isolated from the drive before gaining
access to any live parts.

Auxiliary transformer tap setting
Before powering up the drive, it is important to check that the auxiliary transformer tapping
has been set correctly. Wrong selection could result in damage to transformer and the roof
fans.
4.4Operation on IT (ungrounded) supplies
Operation on IT (ungrounded) supplies
Unusual hazards can occur on IT (ungrounded supplies).
A ground (earth) fault in the incoming supply has no effect. The drive will continue to run.
However, the phase to phase voltage will appear between two of the supply terminals and
ground (Earth). On a 690 V supply, this will stress the insulation.
A ground (earth) fault in the motor circuit may not cause the drive to trip. If the motor
is required to continue to run with a ground fault in its circuit, then an input isolating
transformer must be provided. If an EMC filter is required, it must be located on the
primary side of the isolating transformer.
The following measures must be taken:
Additional, independent motor ground fault protection must be provided.
EMC filters must not be used
The internal EMC filter inside the drive module must be disconnected
1. Disconnection of the internal EMC filter on frame size 11E is only possible at the factory. This must be
specified when ordering.

4.11High-capacitance / reduced diameter cables
The recommended motor cable has an insulating jacket between the cores and the armour or shield.
These cables have low capacitance between each conductor and all other conductors, including the
shield (typically 130 pF/m). Cables that do not have an insulating jacket tend to have high
capacitance. If a high-capacitance/ reduced diameter cable is used, then the maximum
recommended cable length is half that quoted in Table 4-6. (Figure 4-6 shows how to identify the two
types of cable).

4.12Output contactor
WARNING
WARNING
WARNING
Output contactor
If the cable between the drive and the motor is to be interrupted by a contactor or circuit
breaker, ensure that the drive is disabled before the contactor or circuit breaker is opened
or closed. Severe arcing may occur if this circuit is interrupted with the motor running at
high current and low speed.
A contactor is sometimes required to be installed between the drive and motor for safety purposes.
The recommended motor contactor is the AC3 type.
Switching of an output contactor should only occur when the output of the drive is disabled.
Opening or closing of the contactor with the drive enabled will lead to:
1. OI ac trips (which cannot be reset for 10 seconds)
2. High levels of radio frequency noise emission
3. Increased contactor wear and tear
The Drive Enable terminal (terminal 31 on Unidrive M700 / M701 and terminal 29 on Powerdrive 300) when opened provides a Safe Torque Off function. This can in many cases replace
output contactors.
For further information see the Control User Guide.
4.13Safe Torque Off
The drives are provided with a Safe Torque Off function. In many cases this can replace output
contactors.

4.15Ground leakage
WARNING
NOTE
WARNING
NOTE
Ground leakage
The ground leakage current is > 3.5 mA AC (10 mA DC).
A permanent fixed ground connection must be provided, or other suitable measures taken
to prevent a safety hazard occurring if the connection is lost.
Suitable measures include either a fixed ground connection or automatic disconnection of the supply
in case of discontinuity of the protective earthing conductor.
4.16Use of a residual current device (RCD)
There are three common types of ELCB / RCD:
•AC - detects AC fault currents
•A - detects AC and pulsating DC fault currents (provided the DC current reaches zero at least
once every half cycle)
•B - detects AC, pulsating DC and smooth DC fault currents
Type AC should not be used with variable speed drives.
Type A can only be used with single phase drives
Type B is the only type suitable for use with three phase, variable speed drives
RCD types
Only type B ELCB / RCD are suitable for use with 3 phase inverter drives.
If an external EMC filter is used, a delay of at least 50 ms should be incorporated to prevent spurious
tripping. The leakage current is likely to exceed the trip level if all phases are not energized
simultaneously.
4.17Starts per hour
The number of starts per hour under electronic control is unlimited.
The number of starts per hour caused by interrupting the AC supply is limited to 20 per hour equally
spaced (A minimum interval of 3 minutes between successive starts).
4.18Start-up time
The time from the instant that power is applied to the drive being ready to run the motor is a
maximum of 5 seconds
4.19Motor winding voltage
The drive output voltage can adversely affect the inter-turn insulation in the motor. This is because of
the high rate of change of voltage, in conjunction with the impedance of the motor cable and the
distributed nature of the motor winding.
For normal operation with AC supplies up to 500 Vac and a standard motor with a good quality
insulation system, there is no need for any special precautions. In case of doubt, the motor supplier
should be consulted.
44DFS1/DFS2 Power Installation Guide
Issue Number: 2
Special precautions are recommended if drive is operated with a motor cable length > 10 m under
either of the following conditions:
690 Vac supply voltage
400 Vac operation with continuous or very frequent sustained braking and motor cable length
>10m.
Under these conditions, it is recommended that an inverter-rated motor be used. Inverter-rated
motors use a reinforced insulation system intended by the manufacturer for repetitive fast-rising
pulsed voltage operation.
If it is not practical to use an inverter-rated motor, an output choke (inductor) should be used.
The recommended type is a simple iron-cored component with a reactance of about 2 %. The exact
value is not critical. This operates in conjunction with the capacitance of the motor cable to increase
the rise-time of the motor terminal voltage and prevent excessive electrical stress.
4.20Star/ Delta motor operation
The voltage rating for Star and Delta connections to the motor should always be checked before
attempting to run the motor.
The default setting of the motor rated voltage parameter is the same as the drive rated voltage,
i.e. 400 V drive 400 V rated voltage.
A typical 3 phase motor would be connected in Star for 400 V operation and in Delta for 230 V
operation. However, variations on this principle are common e.g. 690 V Star and 400 V Delta.
Incorrect connection of the windings will cause severe under or over fluxing of the motor.
Under-fluxing results in very poor output torque. Over-fluxing leads to motor saturation and
overheating.
4.21External 24 V DC Supplies
4.21.1Control supply
An external 24 Vdc supply can be connected to control terminals to provide the following functions:
•To supplement the internal 24 V supply when multiple option modules are being used and the
current drawn by the modules is greater than the drive can supply.
•As a back-up power supply to keep the control circuits powered up when the AC power supply is
removed. This allows any fieldbus modules, application modules, encoders or serial
communications to continue to operate.
•To set up the drive using the keypad when the AC power supply is not available. However, the
drive will be in the Under-voltage state unless either line power supply or low voltage DC
operation is enabled, therefore diagnostics may not be possible. (Power down save parameters
are not saved when using the 24 V back-up power supply input).

4.21.2Backup supply
The power 24 Vdc supply (terminals 51, 52) can be connected to allow the 24 Vdc supply to be used
as a backup supply.
If the 24 Vdc backup supply is not connected the message "Waiting For Power System" will be
displayed on the keypad and no drive operations are possible.

When the drive is operated in low voltage mode, a 24 V supply needs to be provided for the heatsink
fan. This should be connected to terminals 61 and 62.
For further information see the Unidrive M700, M701, M702 Control User Guide. CT Part Number:
0478-0353-02.
4.21.4Low voltage operation
With the addition of a 24 Vdc power supply to supply the control circuits, the drive can operate from a
low voltage DC supply with a range from 24 Vdc up to the maximum DC volts. It is possible for the
drive to go from operating on a normal line power supply voltage to operating on a much lower supply
voltage without interruption. Going from low voltage operation to normal mains operation requires the
inrush current to be controlled. This may be provided externally. If not, the drive supply can be
interrupted to utilise the normal soft starting method in the drive.
To fully exploit the low voltage mode of operation, the under-voltage level is user programmable.
For more information on how to use this feature, contact the supplier of the drive.
4.22Electromagnetic compatibility
4.22.1General requirements for EMC
Variable speed drives are powerful electronic circuits which can cause electromagnetic interference if
not installed correctly with careful attention to the layout of the wiring.
It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure that the equipment or system into which the product is
incorporated complies with the relevant EMC legislation.
If used on a low-voltage public network which supplies domestic premises, then radio
frequency interference is to be expected.
Detailed information on EMC compliance is given in the DFS drive EMC Data Sheet, available from
the supplier of the drive, CT part number 0478-0575-01.
In the DFS drives, the drive module is mounted on a metal backplate which is safety bonded to the
power ground busbar in the enclosure. See Figure 4-7.

4.22.2Motor cable
NOTE
Use four core cable to connect the motor to the drive. Connect the ground core of the motor cable to
the ground terminal of the motor. See Figure 4-8.
A shielded cable may also be used. The shield of the motor cable should be connected to the ground
terminal of the motor frame using a link that is as short as possible and not exceeding 50 mm (2 in)
long. A full 360° termination of the shield to the terminal housing of the motor is beneficial.
Figure 4-8 Grounding the motor cable shield
4.22.3Control cables
If the control circuit 0 V must be connected to Ground, this should be done at the system controller
to avoid injecting noise into the 0 V circuit.
Any signal cables which are carried inside the motor cable (i.e. motor thermistor, motor brake)
will pick up large pulse currents via the cable capacitance. The shield of these signal cables must be
connected to ground close to the motor cable, to avoid this noise current spreading through the
control system.
4.22.4Feedback device cable shielding
Shielding considerations are important for PWM drive installations due to the high voltages and
currents present in the output (motor) circuit with a very wide frequency spectrum, typically from 0 to
20 MHz.
To ensure correct transfer of data, observe the following:
48DFS1/DFS2 Power Installation Guide
Issue Number: 2
Resolver connections:
NOTE
NOTE
•Use a cable with an overall shield and twisted pairs.
•Connect the cable shield to the drive 0 V connection by the shortest possible link.
•It is preferable not to connect the cable shield to the resolver. However, in cases where there is
an exceptional level of common-mode noise voltage present on the resolver body, it may be
helpful to connect the shield at this point. The ground connections at both ends should be as
short as possible. If possible, the cable shield should be clamped directly to the resolver body
and to the drive grounding bracket.
•The cable should not be interrupted. If interruptions are unavoidable, ensure that the ground
connections are as short as possible.
Encoder connections:
•Use a cable with the correct impedance.
•Use a cable with an overall shield and twisted pairs.
•Connect the cable shields to 0 V at both the drive and the encoder, using the shortest possible
links.
•The cable should preferably not be interrupted. If interruptions are unavoidable, ensure that the
ground connections are as short as possible. If possible, use a connection method which uses
metallic clamps for the cable shield terminations.
The above recommendations apply where the encoder body is isolated from the motor and the
encoder circuit is isolated from the encoder body. Where there is no isolation between the encoder
circuits and the motor body, the following additional requirement must be observed to give the best
possible noise immunity:
•The shields must be directly clamped to the encoder body and to the drive grounding bracket.
This may be achieved by clamping the individual shields or by providing an additional overall shield
which is clamped.
The recommendations of the encoder manufacturer must also be followed.
Safety informationProduct informationMechanical installationElectrical installationTechnical data
In order to guarantee maximum noise immunity, double shielded cable should be used.
In some cases, single shielding of each pair of differential signals cables, or a single overall shield
with individual shield on the thermistor connections is enough. In these cases, all the shields should
be connected to ground and 0 V at both ends.
If the 0 V is required to be left floating, a cable with individual shields and an overall shield must be
used.
Figures 4-9 and 4-10 show the preferred construction of cable and the method of clamping.
The outer sheath of the cable should be stripped back enough to allow the clamp to be installed.
The shield must not be broken or opened at this point. The clamps should be installed close to the
drive or feedback device, with the ground connections made to a ground plate or similar metallic
ground surface.

4.22.5Interruptions to the motor cable
The motor cable should ideally be a single length of shielded or armoured cable having no
interruptions. In some installations it may be necessary to interrupt the cable, as in the following
examples:
•Connecting the motor cable to a terminal block in the drive enclosure
•Installing a motor isolator/disconnect switch for safety when work is being done on the motor

The motor cable shields should be bonded to a back-plate using uninsulated metal cable-clamps
which should be positioned as close as possible to the terminal block. Keep the length of power
conductors to a minimum and ensure that all sensitive equipment and circuits are at least 0.3 m
(12 in) away from the terminal block.
Figure 4-11 Installing a terminal block in the motor cable
Using a motor isolator/disconnect-switch
The motor cable shields should be connected by a very short conductor having a low inductance.
The use of a flat metal coupling-bar is recommended; conventional wire is not suitable.
The shields should be bonded directly to the coupling-bar using uninsulated metal cable-clamps.
Keep the length of the exposed power conductors to a minimum and ensure that all sensitive
equipment and circuits are at least 0.3 m (12 in) away.
The coupling-bar may be grounded to a known low-impedance ground nearby, for example a large
metallic structure which is connected closely to the drive ground.

4.22.6Surge immunity of control circuits
The input/output ports for the control circuits are designed for general use within machines and small
systems without any special precautions.
These circuits meet the requirements of EN 61000-6-2:2005 (1 kV surge) provided the 0 V
connection is not grounded.

may be required to prevent malfunction or damage. Surges may be caused by lightning or severe
power faults in association with grounding arrangements which permit high transient voltages
between nominally grounded points. There is an increased risk when circuits extend outside a
building.
In general, if the circuits are to pass outside the building where the drive is located, or if cable runs
within a building exceed 30 m, some additional precautions are advisable. One of the following
techniques should be used:
1. Galvanic isolation, i.e. do not connect the control 0 V terminal to ground. Avoid loops in the
control wiring. Ensure that every control wire has its own return (0 V) wire.
2. Shielded cable with additional power ground bonding. The cable shield may be connected to
ground at both ends, but in addition the ground conductors at both ends of the cable must be
bonded together by a power ground cable (equipotential bonding cable) with cross-sectional
area of at least 10 mm², or 10 times the area of the signal cable shield, or to suit the electrical
safety requirements of the plant. This ensures that fault or surge current passes mainly through
the ground cable and not in the signal cable shield. If the building or plant has a well-designed
common bonded network this precaution is not necessary.
3. Additional over-voltage suppression - for the analogue and digital inputs and outputs, a zener
diode network or a commercially available surge suppressor may be connected in parallel with
the input circuit as shown in Figure 4-13 and Figure 4-14.
If a digital port experiences a severe surge its protective trip may operate (O.L 1 trip code 26).
For continued operation after such an event, the trip can be reset automatically by setting parameter
Pr 10.034 to 5.
Figure 4-13 Surge suppression for digital and unipolar inputs and outputs
Figure 4-14 Surge suppression for analog and bipolar inputs and outputs
Surge suppression devices are available as rail-mounting modules, e.g. from Phoenix Contact:
Unipolar TT-UKK5-D/24 DC
Bipolar TT-UKK5-D/24 AC
These devices are not suitable for encoder signals or fast digital data networks because the
capacitance of the diodes adversely affects the signal. Most encoders have galvanic isolation of the
signal circuit from the motor frame, in which case no precautions are required. For data networks,
follow the specific recommendations for the network.

Storage time is 2 years.
Electrolytic capacitors in any electronic product have a storage period after which they require
reforming or replacing.
The DC bus capacitors have a storage period of 10 years.
The low voltage capacitors on the control supplies typically have a storage period of 2 years and are
thus the limiting factor.
Low voltage capacitors cannot be reformed due to their location in the circuit and thus may require
replacing if the drive is stored for a period of 2 years or greater without power being applied.
It is therefore recommended that drives are powered up for a minimum of 1 hour after every 2 years
of storage. This process allows the drive to be stored for a further 2 years.

This is the time taken from the moment of applying power to the drive, to the drive being ready to run
the motor:
5 seconds
5.1.11Output frequency / speed range
Unidrive Mxxx models:
In open loop mode, the maximum output frequency is limited to 599 Hz. In RFC-A and RFC-S it is
limited to 550 Hz.
In RFC-S mode the speed is also limited by the voltage constant (Ke) of the motor unless field
weakening operation is enabled. Ke is a specific constant for the servo motor being used. It can
normally be found on the motor data sheet in V/k rpm (volts per 1,000 rpm).
It is recommended that a minimum ratio of 12:1 is maintained between the switching frequency and
the maximum output frequency to maintain the quality of the output waveform. If this minimum ratio is
exceeded, extra motor losses will result due to the increased harmonic content of the output
waveform.
5.1.12Accuracy and resolution
Speed:
The absolute frequency and speed accuracy depends on the accuracy of the crystal used with the
drive microprocessor. The accuracy of the crystal is 100 ppm, and so the absolute frequency/speed
accuracy is 100 ppm (0.01 %) of the reference, when a preset speed is used. If an analog input is
used the absolute accuracy is further limited by the absolute accuracy of the analog input.
