General Precautions

AT TE NT IO N: This drive contains ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) sensitive parts and
assemblies. Static control precautions are required when you install, test, service, or repair this assembly. If ESD control procedures are not followed, component damage can result. If you are not familiar with static control procedures, see publication 8000-4.5.2, “Guarding Against Electrostatic Damage” or any other applicable ESD protection handbook.
AT TE NT IO N: An incorrectly applied or installed drive can result in component damage or a reduction in product life. Installation or application errors, such as, an undersized motor, incorrect or inadequate AC supply, or excessive surrounding air temperatures can result in malfunction of the system.
AT TE NT IO N: Allow only qualified personnel, familiar with DC drives and associated machinery, to plan or implement the installation, start-up and subsequent maintenance of the system. Failure to comply can result in personal injury and equipment damage.
AT TE NT IO N: An incorrectly applied or installed bypass system can result in component damage or reduction in product life. The most common causes are:
An AC line connection to the drive output or control terminals.
Improper bypass or output circuits that are not Allen-Bradley approved.
Output circuits that do not connect directly to the motor.
Contact Allen-Bradley for assistance with your application or installation.

This chapter provides information on how to mount and wire the PowerFlex DC drive.
Most start-up difficulties are the result of incorrect wire connections. Take all precautions to assure that wire connections are done as instructed. All items must be read and understood before the actual installation begins.
For PowerFlex DC Stand-Alone Regulator (SAR) installations, see Appendix H for important installation and configuration information. A 23PMDx catalog number on the data nameplate on the drive identifies a SAR. (see Drive Nameplate Data on page 12
for location).
The PowerFlex DC drive is not designed for use with multiple motor applications or resistive loads. Contact your Local Solution Center for multiple motor applications. See Local Solution Centers, publication
DSDC-BR001
, for more information.
The recommended drive to motor horsepower ratio is 2:1.
AT TE NT IO N: The following information is merely a guide for proper installation. Rockwell Automation cannot assume responsibility for the compliance or the noncompliance to any code, national, local or otherwise for the proper installation of this drive or associated equipment. If codes are ignored during installation, a hazard of personal injury and equipment damage exists.

Operating Conditions and Temperatures

PowerFlex DC drives are designed to operate at 0…50 °C (32…122 °F) surrounding air temperature without derating. The drive must be mounted in a clean, dry location. Contaminants such as oils, corrosive vapors, and abrasive debris must be kept out of the enclosure. NEMA / UL Type Open, IP20 enclosures are intended for indoor use primarily to provide a degree of protection against contact with enclosed equipment. These enclosures offer no protection against airborne contaminants.

Minimum Mounting Clearances

Minimum clearance requirements are intended to be from drive to drive. Other objects can occupy this space; however, reduced airflow can cause protection circuits to fault the drive. The drive must be mounted in a vertical orientation as shown in Figure 1 vertical. Intake air temperature must not exceed the product specification.

the proper equipment to lift and hold the weight of the drive while mounting.
Ta b l e 7 on page 24 must be considered when mounting the device. Use
ATTENTION: To guard against possible personal injury or equipment damage...
Inspect all lifting hardware for proper attachment before lifting the drive.
Do Not let any part of the drive or lift mechanism to contact electrically charged
conductors or components.
Do Not subject the drive to high rates of acceleration or deceleration while transporting to the mounting location or when lifting.
Do Not let personnel or their limbs be directly underneath the drive when it is being lifted and mounted.

Mount Frame C and D Drives

All lifting equipment and components (hooks, bolts, lifts, slings, and chains) must have a minimum
lifting capacity of 453.6 kg (1,000 lb).
Verify that all mounting screws are properly tightened before and after drive operation.
1. Verify the hole pattern on the panel on which you intend to mount the drive. See Figure 4
2. Install the mounting hardware:
For frame C drives, insert, but do not tighten, a bolt in one of the top
holes in the panel. The bolt must be fully threaded into the panel before hanging the drive.
For Frame D drives, insert, but do not tighten, the six bolts for the top
mounting flange on the drive into the panel. The bolts must be fully threaded into the panel before hanging the drive.
3. To limit the pull in forces on the drive, the lifting devices that are connected to the hooks must be long enough to make the angle between the chain or cable and a vertical line that extends up from the flange center less than 45° angle as illustrated in Figure 7
26
.
For frame C drives, insert the properly sized and rated lifting hooks
into the holes on the lifting flanges at the top of the drive. See Figure 7 on page 26
For frame D drives, insert the properly sized lifting rod into the holes
on the lifting flanges at the top of the drive. See Figure 8

General Grounding Requirements

The drive Safety Ground (PE) must be connected to system ground. Ground impedance must conform to the requirements of national and local industrial safety regulations and electrical codes. Periodically check the integrity of all ground connections.
For installations within a cabinet, use a safety ground point or ground bus bar connected directly to building steel. Ground all circuits, including the AC input ground conductor, independently and directly to this point/bar.
For installations in distribution systems that have ungrounded or high impedance, neutral connections or systems, see Grounding for Installations in an Ungrounded or High-Impedance, Neutral Ground, or System on page 34
.
ATTENTION: To comply with the essential requirements of the CE Low Voltage Directive 2006/95/EC, PowerFlex DC drives cannot be powered from a corner­earthed (TN with one phase earthed) supply system. When operating PowerFlex DC drives from an IT or impedance-earthed supply system, only temporary operation is permitted after an earth fault is detected in the power system.

Power Feeder

Each power feeder from the substation transformer to the drive must be provided with properly sized ground cables. Bond the conduit or cable armor to the substation ground at both ends. Each transformer enclosure or frame must be bonded to ground at a minimum of two locations.

Encoder/Resolver Ground Connections

If used, the encoder or resolver ground connections must be routed in grounded steel conduit. The conduit must be grounded at both ends. The encoder/resolver cable shield must be connected to the shield ground on the drive side. Do not connect the encoder/resolver cable shield to ground on the motor side.

Tachometer Ground Connections

If used, ground connections must be routed in grounded steel conduit. The conduit must be grounded at both ends. Ground the cable shield at the drive end by using only the shield clamps on the grounded metal plate that supports the control board (see Figure 58
on page 81 for shield clamp location).

Chapter 1 Installation and Wiring
Grounding for Installations in an Ungrounded or High­Impedance, Neutral Ground, or System
The PowerFlex DC drive was designed to work in distribution systems where the isolation transformer Wye neutral is connected to earth ground. PowerFlex DC drives are not designed to work in distribution systems that have ungrounded or high-impedance, neutral connections, or systems that have a phase that is referenced to earth. Symmetrical incoming power is required for correct drive operation.
The use of a grounded Wye neutral is highly recommended to prevent common mode rejection problems with the feedback measurement circuits in the drive. Possible drive damage can occur because of inaccurate feedback measurements of the incoming AC voltage, armature voltage, or field current.
If the PowerFlex DC drive is installed in a system with an ungrounded Wye neutral or with an impedance ground connection, see Ta b l e 8 necessary drive modifications that are required for proper installation.
on page 35 for the

Power Distribution

Figure 10 - Delta/Wye with Grounded Wye Neutral
Rockwell Automation strongly recommends the use of grounded neutral systems for the following reasons:
Controlled path for common mode noise current
Consistent line to ground voltage reference, which minimizes insulation
stress
Accommodation for system-surge protection schemes
Figure 11 - Ungrounded Secondary
Grounding the transformer secondary is essential to the safety of personnel and safe operation of the drive. A floating secondary can allow dangerously high voltages occur between the chassis of the drive and the internal power structure components.

Grounding the Wye secondary neutral through a resistor is an acceptable method of grounding. In this case, in a short-circuited secondary condition, none of the output phases to ground will exceed the normal line to line voltage. The resistor is often used to detect ground current by monitoring the associated voltage drop.

Installation and Wiring Chapter 1

CE Conformity

Compliance with the Low Voltage Directive and Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive has been demonstrated by using harmonized European Norm (EN) standards, references to which have been published in the Official Journal of the European Communities. PowerFlex DC drives comply with the EN standards listed here when installed according to this User Manual.
EU Declarations of Conformity are available online at:
www.rockwellautomation.com/products/certification/ce/

Low Voltage Directive

EN 50178 Electronic equipment for use in power installations.

EMC Directive

EN 61800-3 Adjustable speed electrical power drive systems Part 3: EMC product standard including specific test methods.

General Considerations

• For CE compliance, the drive installation must satisfy requirements that are related to both EN 50178 and EN 61800-3 provided in this document.
• PowerFlex DC drives comply with the EMC requirements of EN 61800-3 when installed according to good EMC practices and the instructions that are provided in this document. However, many factors can influence the EMC compliance of an entire machine or installation, and compliance of the drive itself does not ensure compliance of all applications.
• PowerFlex DC drives are not intended to be used on public low-voltage networks that supply domestic premises. Without additional mitigation, radio frequency interference is expected if used on such a network. The installer is responsible to take measures such as supplementary line filters and enclosures to prevent interference, in addition to the installation requirements of this document.
• PowerFlex DC drives generate notching and harmonic current emissions on the AC supply system. When operated on a public low-voltage network, it is the responsibility of the installer or user to be sure that applicable requirements of the distribution network operator have been met.
ATTENTION: PowerFlex DC drives can produce DC current in the protective earthing conductor, which can reduce the ability of residual current-operated protective devices (RCD) or residual current-operated monitoring devices (RCM), of type A or AC, to provide protection for other equipment in the installation.
Rockwell Automation Publication 20P-UM001K-EN-P - July 2014 39
Chapter 1 Installation and Wiring

Installation Requirements Related to the Low Voltage Directive

• PowerFlex DC drives are designed to be CE compliant only if they are NOT connected to “corner-earthed” supply systems where one of the three phases of the supply system has been earthed.
• PowerFlex DC drives are compliant with the CE LV Directive when used at altitudes no greater than 2,000 m (6,562 ft).
• PowerFlex DC drives provided in enclosure type IP20 must be installed in a pollution degree 1 or 2 environment to be compliant with the CE LV Directive. Characteristics of the different pollution degree ratings are provided on page 41
• PowerFlex DC drives can produce leakage current in the protective earthing conductor that exceeds 3.5 mA AC or 10 mA DC. The minimum size of the protective earthing (ground) conductor that is used in the application must comply with local safety regulations for high-protective earthing conductor current equipment.
• Frame D PowerFlex DC drives must be installed in a supplementary enclosure that provides protection from electric shock to be compliant with the CE LV Directive.

Frame B 20Px1Ax167… 20Px1Ax412
Frame C 20Px1Ax495… 20Px1Ax667 Frame D 20Px1Ax… 20Px1Ax

Installation Requirements Related to EN 61800-3 and the EMC Directive

• The drive must be earthed (grounded) as described in this User Manual.
• PowerFlex DC drives require the use of an external EMC filter to comply with the EMC Directive and emission limits of EN 61800-3: 2004. PowerFlex DC drives have been tested and verified for compliance to the emission limits of EN 61800-3: 2004 by using only the specific input filters and motor cable lengths that are identified in Ta b l e 9 page 45

Chapter 1 Installation and Wiring

Power Circuit Protection

Control Power Circuit Protection

It is recommended that you install frame A and B PowerFlex DC drives with fast acting fuses to protect the armature converter on the AC input and DC output (for four quadrant drives only) sides. Internally mounted fuses for armature converter protection are provided with frame C and D PowerFlex DC drives. See Drive Power Circuit Protection on page 236
for a list of replacement fuses and
general fuse locations.
The 115V / 230V AC control circuit power input terminals U2 and V2 are required to be short circuit protected. This protection can be provided by using standard time delay fuses or a circuit breaker. The time delay fuses or circuit breaker must be selected to survive the short circuit available current of the feeder source for this circuit and the inrush current of the drive’s power supply.
Size the fuses or circuit breaker to primarily protect the wiring from the fuses or circuit breaker connections to terminals U2 and V2, and not nuisance trip or blow from the inrush current.
The table below lists the input current characteristics of the control power.

Power Wiring Diagrams Notes
1. For frame B and C drives only, a jumper is required between terminals SA and SB for 115V AC control input power. See Control Circuit Input Power on page Control Circuit Input Power for more information.
2. An Isolation Transformer and/or 3…5% impedance Line Reactor is required. If the Isolation Transformer provides the required 3…5% impedance, a Line Reactor is not required. See AC Input Line Reactors and AC Input Contactors on page 254
for recommendations. It is recommended that the isolation
256
transformer has a grounded Wye secondary neutral. If the PowerFlex DC drive is installed in a system with an ungrounded Wye neutral or with an impedance ground connection, see Grounding for Installations in an Ungrounded or High-Impedance, Neutral Ground, or System on page 34 for more information.
3. AC input fuses for the armature converter are customer supplied for frame A and B drives and are internally mounted on frame C and D drives. See Drive Power Circuit Protection on page 236

Armature Voltage Feedback Connections

When a DC output contactor or inverting fault breaker or fuse is used with the drive, the Armature Voltage Feedback terminals can be used to monitor the armature voltage at the motor regardless of the state of the contactor or inverting fault device. When this terminal block is not connected to the motor armature terminals, the terminals must be jumpered (as described in the Ta b l e 1 2 armature voltage feedback is monitored internally within the drive. In this case, when a DC contactor is used with the drive, a speed feedback device is not used, and the contactor opens, the drive will no longer receive the armature voltage feedback signal.
By default, these terminals are jumpered - 1A1 to A1 and 1A2 to A2. If these terminals are not wired to the motor terminals, the jumpers must be installed.
Note that this terminal block is not present on drives shipped from the factory prior to those with version 3.001 firmware installed. However, new pulse transformer circuit boards shipped as replacement parts from the factory contain this terminal block and can be used with any firmware version.

Field Converter Connections

For 575V and 690V AC input drives only, a step down transformer with either a 230 VAC secondary, for a 150V motor field, or 460 VAC, for a 300V motor field, is required before the input to the field control circuit (terminals U1, V1).
Also, If the rated voltage of the DC motor field is not compatible with the field DC output voltage of the drive, an external field control transformer must be used. Refer to the following example for transformer selection information.
Example: 10 Hp, 240V Armature, 17.2A, 240V Field, 2.0 A motor
a. The field control transformer must have a 230V primary, a 460V
secondary, and be single-phase, 60 Hz
b. kVA = 2 A x 460VAC x 1.5 = 1.38 kVA (1.5 kVA is closest)
In addition, the following configuration must be completed in the PowerFlex DC drive:
c. Control board DIP switch S14 must be set to select a value of 2 A. d. Parameter 374 [Drv Fld Brdg Cur] must be programmed to match DIP
switch S14 = “2.”
e. Parameter 280 [Nom Mtr Fld Amps] must be programmed to the rated
motor nameplate field current “2.”

Chapter 1 Installation and Wiring
Note: This illustration is an example configuration for a drive with a field supply amp rating of 20 A and a motor with a rated field current less than or equal to 17 A.

Field Current Configuration

DIP switch S14 on the drive’s control circuit board is factory set to the minimum field current rating based on the drive size (see DIP Switch and Jumper Settings on page 75
for S14 location). The configuration of this switch must be changed to be greater than or equal to the rated field current specified on the motor nameplate (unless a permanent magnet motor is being used) or possible motor damage may result. In addition, the value selected with switch S14 must be entered in parameter 374 drive is commissioned (see Drive Start Up on page 91
[Drv Fld Brdg Cur] in the control software when the
.)
ATTENTION: DIP switch S14 must be set to a value that is greater than or equal to the rated field current specified on the motor nameplate or possible motor damage may result.

Set DIP Switch S14 to the Correct Value

Complete the following steps to set switch S14 to the correct field current value.
1. Locate and record the frame size and field supply amp rating listed on the drive data nameplate (see Drive Nameplate Data on page 12
for location).
2. Locate and record the rated field current value listed on the motor data nameplate.
3. For frame A, B, and C drives:
Use Ta b l e 1 6
on page 61 to set switch S14 to be the equivalent or next
higher value as compared to the motor’s rated field current.
For frame D drives:
Use Ta b l e 1 7
or Ta b l e 1 8 on page 61 to set switch S14 to be the equivalent or next higher value as compared to motor’s rated field current.

Frame C Heatsink Cooling Fan Specifications

Frame C drives require an external 230V AC power supply for the heatsink cooling fans. If sourced from the main 3 phase AC input, the power supply connections must be taken from the primary side of the installed Isolation Transformer or Line Reactor (clean power).
In addition, the fan power input terminals U3 and V3 are required to be short circuit protected. This protection can be provided by using a circuit breaker or fuses.
If a circuit breaker is used, it must be rated for the short circuit available current of the feeder source for this circuit and the inrush current of the fan. Size the circuit breaker to primarily protect the wiring from the circuit breaker connections to terminals U3 and V3, and not nuisance trip or blow from the inrush current.
If fuses are used, they must be rated for either 230V AC, 2.0 Amps (slow blow).

When connecting the fan power wiring, verify that the airflow exits through the top of the drive. If the airflow is incorrect, switch the leads on terminals U3 and V3.
The cooling fan power input terminals U3, V3 and W3 are required to be short circuit protected. This protection can be provided by using a circuit breaker or fuses.
If a circuit breaker is used, it must be rated for the short circuit available current of the feeder source for this circuit and the inrush current of the fan. Size the circuit breaker to primarily protect the wiring from the circuit breaker connections to terminals U3, V3, and W3, and not nuisance trip or blow from the inrush current.
If fuses are used, they must be rated for either 400V AC, 2.5 Amps (slow blow), or 460V AC, 3.15 Amps (slow blow).
A normally closed (N.C.) contact wired to terminals 31 and 32 of the fan terminal block can be connected to an external device to provide indication of a fan supply failure or can be wired to drive digital input terminals configured for 14 “Aux Fault” (via Pars 133…144).

Observe the following points when installing I/O wiring:
Use copper wire only.
Wire with an insulation rating of 600V or greater is recommended.
I/O terminals labeled “(–)” or “Common” are not referenced to earth ground and are designed to greatly reduce common mode interference. Grounding these terminals can cause signal noise.
ATTENTION: Configuring an analog input for current operation and driving it from a voltage source could cause component damage. Verify proper switch configuration prior to applying input signals. See DIP Switch and Jumper Settings on page 75
.
ATTENTION: Hazard of personal injury or equipment damage exists when bipolar input sources are used. Noise and drift in sensitive input circuits can cause unpredictable changes in motor speed and direction. Use speed command parameters to help reduce input source sensitivity.

I/O Signal and Control Wiring

Eight (8) digital inputs, four (4) digital outputs, three (3) analog inputs, and two (2) analog outputs are available on the standard I/O terminal blocks provided with the drive. One digital input (1…8) must be configured for “Enable” (digital input 4 by default = “Enable”). See I/O and Control Wire Routing on page 89 for information on routing I/O signal and control wires.
Additional digital and analog I/O is available when the optional I/O expansion circuit board is installed. See Appendix F
for more information. Also, you can use the optional 115V AC Converter circuit board to convert 115V AC digital input signals to 24V DC digital inputs signals to interface with the digital inputs on the standard I/O terminal blocks. See Appendix G

Digital Encoder Terminal Block
Always connect the encoder connection cables directly to the terminals on the encoder terminal block. The encoder cable must be made up of twisted pairs with the shield connected to the shield ground on the drive side. Do not connect the shield to ground on the motor side. In some cases (for example, cable lengths that exceed 100 meters), it may be necessary to ground the shield of each twisted pair on the power supply.

IMPORTANT

Applying Power to the Drive

The remainder of the “Drive Start Up” procedure in this manual uses a HIM to configure and autotune the drive. If you prefer, you can use the DriveExplorer™, DriveTools™ SP, or Connected Components Workbench™ software to program drive parameters or use the drive “Start Up” wizard (basic application configuration only) available with both software packages. You must use DriveExplorer v5.02 or higher or DriveTools SP v4.01 or higher with a PowerFlex DC drive specific software patch. The patch can be downloaded from http://
www.ab.com/support/abdrives/webupdate/.
If an operator interface is not available, use a remote device to start up the drive. For information on using the HIM, see the HIM Overview on page 265
When power is first applied, the HIM may require approximately 5 seconds until commands are recognized (including the Stop key).
.

Apply Voltage to the Control Circuits

1. Apply power to the control circuits (terminals U2 and V2) of the drive.
2. If any of the digital inputs are configured to “Stop/CF” (CF = Clear
Fault), “Enable” or “Aux Fault,” verify that signals are present or reconfigure [Digital Inx Sel]. If a fault code displays, see Chapter 4 ­Troubleshooting on page 215
.
3. If the STS LED is not flashing green at this point, see “Drive Status Indicators” below.

Note: Parameters 45 [Max Ref Speed] and 162 [Max Feedback Spd] are typically set to the motor nameplate base speed. However, if a speed feedback device is used (encoder or tachometer), see Drive Reference and Feedback Scaling on page 279
for details on setting these
parameters.
45 [Max Ref Speed] - Enter the motor nameplate base speed.
162 [Max Feedback Spd] - Enter the motor nameplate base speed.
175 [Rated Motor Volt] - Enter the rated motor nameplate
armature voltage. This value is the measured armature voltage when the motor is running at base speed with rated field current and represents 100% of the rated armature voltage when field weakening is not used. If field weakening is used, set this value to 90% of the rated armature voltage to prevent a possible overvoltage condition when the drive transitions to the field weakening mode.
179 [Nom Mtr Arm Amps] - Enter the rated motor nameplate
armature current. Note: To prevent current scaling/resolution issues, the drive size (as set by DIP switch S15 and shown in Par 465 [Drive Size]) can not exceed the motor size (as set by Par 179) by more than three times.
374 [Drv Fld Brdg Cur] - Enter the rated current of the field bridge
regulator to match the value set using the DIP switch S14. See Field Current Configuration on page 60
.
280 [Nom Mtr Fld Amps] - Enter the rated motor nameplate field
current. If using a permanent magnet motor, leave this parameter set to the default value.

18. Access the “Field Config” group.
19. Configure the following parameters:
If the motor field power is supplied by an external source, set Par
497 [Field Reg Enable] = 0 “Disabled”. Otherwise, verify that this parameter is set to 1 “Enabled” (default). Leave set to the default value if using a permanent magnet motor.
If you are utilizing field economy when the drive is stopped or at
zero speed, set Par 1407 [Field Econ Delay] to the desired amount of time to elapse after the drive stops or reaches zero speed before field economy becomes active (the value set in Par 468 [Min Fld Curr Pct]). The default value is 300 seconds. Leave set to the default value if using a permanent magnet motor.
Par 469 [Field Mode Sel] - select the desired field mode (default = 0
“Base Speed”, constant field current):
• 1 “Field Weaken”, field weakening mode
• 2 “External”, power to the field is supplied externally
• 3 “PM External”, external field is created by a permanent magnet (PM) motor
If you are utilizing field economy at zero speed, set 468 [Min Fld
Curr Pct] to the desired minimum field current for field economy (default = 30%). Leave set to the default value if using a permanent magnet motor.
If you are operating the drive in field weakening mode, set Par 456
[Fld Weaken Ratio] = Motor nameplate base speed / Par 45 [Max Ref Speed] x 100. Leave set to the default value if using a permanent magnet motor.
When operating the drive in field weakening mode, it is necessary to refer to the CEMF value or to the crossover data. If the maximum field current is not within 10% of the maximum value of the internal field converter, configure the current feedback using DIP switch S14. See Field Current Configuration on page
