1. MOUNTING AND WIRING
1.1 ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
The maximum ambient/working temperature for the V5 is 45ºC. The V5 can be operated in a higher ambient
temperature of up to 50ºC by de-rating the soft starter by 2% for every degree over 45ºC.
1.2 IEC PROTECTION
The V5 soft starter ingress protection is IP20. This means that the soft starter is protected against finger contact with
hazardous or moving parts inside the enclosure, and protection of against ingress of foreign objects with a diameter
greater than 12mm.
1.3 MOUNTING
The V5 soft starter is designed for vertical mounting. Input bus bars are located in the top and motor bus bars must
be connected at the bottom, except for models V50009 to V50090 where both, input and output must be connected at
the bottom.
To improve heat dissipation, it is recommended to mount the soft starter on a metal gear plate.
When installed within a cabinet, proper ventilation is to be provided. A minimum of 40mm side clearance and 150mm
top and bottom distance is to be kept between soft starters and or side of the enclosure.
Do not install V5 above any heat source, unless heat airflow is forced out of the cabinet.
Figure 1. Vertical mounting.
1.4 POWER LOSS DISSIPATION
The V5 has a power loss of 3 watts per amp. For example this means that a V50210 has a power loss of 630 watts at
full load.
1. 5 WIRING CONFIGURATION
Most electrical wiring regulations require a mains isolator on solid state equipment. The V5 falls in to this category.
This is to ensure there is an air break in the circuit as semiconductors cannot be relied upon to be safe isolation.
There are many choices, the most common are thermal magnetic protection with a trip coil in conjunction with a
contactor.
Magnetic protection is required to protect the V5 from damage due in the event of a short circuit within the V5 or on
the output cabling or motor. When faster protection is desired, semiconductor fuses are recommended. The fuses
should be mounted as close to the V5 as possible. Power factor correction capacitors must not be connected after
the fuses or on the output of the V5.
ENGLISH
POWER ELECTRONICS V5 Operation Instructions V5IM01BI

The V5 protects the motor with electronic overload sensing, so an external overload relay is not necessary. If multiple
motors are connected, separate overloads are required for each motor.
An isolator can be fitted after the V5 but is recommended for off load use only. Whilst a motor isolator is not
necessary for the operation of the V5, site standards or electrical wiring regulations may require this to be installed.
If a contactor is to be fitted, one of the V5 output relays can be used to energise this on receiving an external start
signal. (G7.1 Relay 1 = 11 Instantaneous).
Note: It is absolutely necessary that the installer guaranties the correct observance of the law and the regulations that
are in force in those countries or areas where this device is going to be installed.

NOTE: RELAY 2 (Terminals 4 and 5) set as BY-PASS / REACT G7.2= 15
By-pass contactor can be AC1 category.
•Configuration for compensation capacitors.
NOTE: RELAY 2 (Terminals 4 and 5) set as BY-PASS / REACT G7.2= 15.
To avoid damages do not connect capacitors at the output of the V5
This circuitry is only valid if compensation capacitors are operating for the motor connected to the V5.
CONTROL WIRING
The following control wiring diagram corresponds to the standard configuration for external Start/Stop pushbuttons.
Figure 2.3 By-pass configuration.
Figure 2.4 Relay configuration.
NOTE: Wiring distance. Control wiring should not be run in parallel with power input or output cables to the motor. There
should be a minimum distance of 300mm between power and control cables, and should be crossed at right
angles.
Inputs and outputs. All signals do need to be screened when running in parallel with power cables. El diagrama

1. 6 CHECKS BEFORE COMMISSIONING THE V5 SOFTSTARTER
1. Check for foreign objects in the V5 cabinet – particularly that left there from installation.
2. Check that the control board supply (L - N, 230Vca +/-10%) is connected.
3. Check that the power supply is connected to the terminals L1, L2, L3 and the motor is connected to the terminals
U, V, W. Confirm that the supply is according to the V5 specifications. The motor current should not exceed the
V5 rating.
4. Check all control wiring, close V5 cabinet and ensure the installation is electrically safe and that it is safe to run
the motor.
5. It is recommended that all digital inputs are disconnected before applying voltage to the V5 for the first time to
prevent accidentally starting the motor. It is also recommended not to apply main voltage (3ph~) before
commissioning the soft starter.
6. Digitalinput status can be checked through screen G0: DIG INPUT= X 0 0 0 0 F.
X indicates this digital input is on, 0 indicates the digital input is off.
K indicates PTC input is not active.
F indicates PTC input is active.
As default, the digital inputs are disabled G6.1 OPER MODE=1 (LOCAL). This means that the V5 start and stop
can only be controlled via the display unit pushbuttons.
7. The default configuration for the digital outputs is as follows:
Relay configuration can be modified through Screen Group G7 - Outputs.
8. Ensure the stop circuit is open before configuring the V5 to work in 3-wire mode.
9. Set the motor (rated) nameplate and start/stop parameters, protection and user parameters.
10. Set jumpers as follows.
(Switch ON = V5 accelerates and Switch OFF= Deceleration of the V5 is finished).
(Switch ON at end of ramp up and Switch OFF at start of ramp down).

7.2 TERMINAL DESCRIPTIONS
Control board supply voltage.
Input terminals for control board supply voltage (230V +/-10%). Other voltage ratings are available on demand.
Note that the unsed terminal between L and N is purely to ensure electrical clearances.
Terminals T1 to T9. Output relays.
Selection of their function is made through Group 7 OUTPUTS. Avoid settings that cause relays to switch excessively
as this will reduce their life expectancy.
The maximum allowable ratings for the relay outputs are 250V/AC / 10A or 30V/DC 10A.
Terminal 10. 24V/DC Input switch.
This terminal provides the 24V supply for the 5 digital inputs at terminals T11 to T15. This terminal is fuse (E0141)
protected (250V,1A) for overload/short-circuit protection. The fuse is located at the bottom right of the control board.

The function of the digital inputs can be programmed from the keyboard, at the group G6 INPUT.
Terminals T16 and T17. Motor PTC.
This is a digital input for thermal protection trip (F8 Motor PTC), which switches when the resistance between these
terminals exceeds the following limits: 150 ohms < PTC Resistance < 2.7kohms. To protect the motor after tripping
due to PTC alarm against further thermal overload, the PTC resistance must be less than 270 Ohms to reset the
softstarter.
Terminals T18 (T19) y T20 (T21). Analogue inputs configuration.
The function of the Analogue inputs can be programmed from the keyboard at the group G6 Inputs.
