DANGER! - Ignoring the following may result in injury
1. This equipment can endanger life by exposure to
rotating machinery and high voltages.
2. The equipment must be permanently earthed due to
the high earth leakage current, and the drive motor
must be connected to an appropriate safety earth.
3. Ensure all incoming supplies are isolated before
working on the equipment. Be aware that there may
be more than one supply connection to the drive.
4. There may still be dangerous voltages present at
power terminals (motor output, supply input phases,
DC bus and the brake, where fitted) when the motor
is at standstill or is stopped.
5. For measurements use only a meter to IEC 61010 (CAT
III or higher). Always begin using the highest range.
CAT I and CAT II meters must not be used on this
product.
6. Allow at least 5 minutes for the drive's capacitors to
discharge to safe voltage levels (<50V). Use the
specified meter capable of measuring up to 1000V dc &
ac rms to confirm that less than 50V is present between
all power terminals and earth.
7. Unless otherwise stated, this product must NOT be
dismantled. In the event of a fault the drive must be
returned. Refer to "Routine Maintenance and Repair".
WARNING! - Ignoring the following may result in injury or damage to equipment
SAFETY
Where there is conflict between EMC and Safety requirements, personnel safety shall always take precedence.
Never perform high voltage resistance checks on the
wiring without first disconnecting the drive from the
circuit being tested.
Whilst ensuring ventilation is sufficient, provide
guarding and /or additional safety systems to
prevent injury or damage to equipment.
When replacing a drive in an application and before
returning to use, it is essential that all user defined
parameters for the product’s operation are correctly
installed.
All control and signal terminals are SELV, i.e. protected
by double insulation. Ensure all external wiring is rated
for the highest system voltage.
Thermal sensors contained within the motor must have
at least basic insulation.
All exposed metalwork in the Inverter is protected by
basic insulation and bonded to a safety earth.
RCDs are not recommended for use with this product
but, where their use is mandatory, only Type B RCDs
should be used.
In a domestic environment this product may cause
radio interference in which case supplementary
mitigation measures may be required.
This equipment contains electrostatic discharge
(ESD) sensitive parts. Observe static control
precautions when handling, installing and servicing
this product.
This is a product of the restricted sales distribution class
according to IEC 61800-3. It is designated as
“professional equipment” as defined in EN61000-3-2.
Permission of the supply authority shall be obtained
before connection to the low voltage supply.
The specifications, processes and circuitry described herein are for guidance only and may need to be adapted to the
user’s specific application. We can not guarantee the suitability of the equipment described in this Manual for
individual applications.
Under fault conditions, power loss or unintended operating conditions, the drive may not operate as intended.
In particular:
Stored energy might not discharge to safe levels as
quickly as suggested, and can still be present even
though the drive appears to be switched off
The motor's direction of rotation might not be controlled
The motor speed might not be controlled
The motor might be energised
A drive is a component within a drive system that may influence its operation or effects under a fault condition.
Consideration must be given to:

Product Overview1-1
514C Product Manual
Chapter 1 Product Overview
DESCRIPTION
The 514C controller is intended for use in an Industrial Environment, it should be mounted
within an enclosure which provides protection to the controller and the user.
The controller should be permanently earthed at the terminals provided.
The 514C controller is designed to control the speed of a DC Shunt wound or permanent
magnet motor. It will provide control of the motor speed in all 4 Quadrants of operation.
The controllers are designed to operate from a single phase AC mains supply in the range of
110 Vac to 415 Vac at 50 or 60 Hz. An auxiliary supply is required for internal power supply
generation and main supply contactor sequencing. Coding is derived from the main power
terminals and is functional over the whole input voltage range.
The Speed of the DC Motor is controlled using a linear closed loop system with a feedback
signal from either tachogenerator or armature voltage, the feedback source being switch
selectable.
A current loop within the speed loop always ensures that controlled levels of current are
applied to the motor, actual levels being scaleable via programmable switches.
Motor protection is provided by a Stall detection circuit which will remove current from the
motor after approximately 60 seconds.
Controller protection is provided by an Instantaneous Overcurrent trip circuit overriding
control in the event of a Short Circuit.
PRODUCT RANGE
540 TO 514C UPGRADE
The 514C is designed to be functionally equivalent to the 540 series controllers not a direct
replacement. Comparisons between the two controllers connectors are included throughout
the manual.
Chapter 2 describes the terminal connectors to the 514C controller, in that section on page 2-4
is given a terminal to terminal comparison of 540/1 to 514C.
