Liquid Cooling

The PowerFlex 7000L “C” Frame liquid-cooled drive utilizes a closed loop system to cool the converter main power components and the integral DC link inductor.

Benefits of Liquid Cooling Include:

Smaller drive dimension compared to air-cooled drives of similar rating
Higher power rating capability
Quiet operation in control room
Low loss rejection to the control room reduces air conditioner loading
Majority of losses rejected outside the control room via a liquid-to-air or
liquid-to-liquid type heat exchanger

Topology

The PowerFlex 7000L utilizes a Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) – Current Source Inverter (CSI) for the machine side converter as shown in Figure 1
. This topology offers a simple, reliable, cost effective power structure that is easy to apply to a wide voltage and power range. The power semiconductor switches used are easy-to-series for any medium voltage level. Semiconductor fuses are not required for the power structure due to the current limiting DC link inductor.
With 6500VPIV rated power semiconductor devices, the number of inverter components is kept to a minimum. For example, only six inverter switching devices are required at 2400V, 12 at 3300-4160V, and 18 at 6600V.
The PowerFlex 7000L has the additional benefit of inherent regenerative braking for applications where the load is overhauling the motor (i.e. downhill conveyors, etc.), or where high inertia loads (i.e. fans, etc.) need to be slowed down quickly. Symmetrical Gate Commutated Thyristors (SGCTs) are used for machine converter switches. Silicon-controlled rectifiers (SCRs) (for 18 Pulse) or SGCTs (for AFE rectifiers) are used for the line converter switches. An AFE configuration is shown in Figure 1
.
The PowerFlex 7000L provides a selectable option for enhanced torque control capabilities and increased dynamic control performance. This High Performance Torque Control (HPTC) feature delivers 100% torque at zero speed and provides torque control through zero speed with smooth direction transition.

Rectifier Designs

There are two offered designs for the rectifier of the PowerFlex 7000L drive.

18 Pulse Rectifier

An 18 Pulse phase controlled rectifier is shown in Figure 2. In an 18 Pulse configuration, the IEEE 519-1992 requirements are met in the majority of cases without the need for passive filters; however, a multi-winding isolation transformer is required to mitigate the low order harmonics by phase shifting principles. The 18 Pulse solution is superior to 6- or 12-pulse offerings in terms of lowering line side harmonics.
Isolation transformers are available in indoor dry type, cast coil, and outdoor oil­filled designs for maximum flexibility in dealing with floor space, installation costs, and control room air conditioner loading. (Refer to Specification 80001­005, Rectifier Duty Transformers, for more details on transformer requirements and features.)
Sample line current and voltage are also shown in Figure 2 current is approximately 5.6%, while the THD of line voltage (line-to-line) is approximately 2.0%. (THD of line voltage is a function of system impedance.) The 18 Pulse rectifier consists of one master bridge and two slave bridges and will always have a total of 18 SCR switching devices.

Active Front End (AFE Rectifier)

An active front end (AFE rectifier) suitable for the PowerFlex 7000L topology is also commonly called a PWM rectifier. This is particularly attractive since it does not require an isolation transformer to meet IEEE 519-1992. Most available technologies in today’s MV market require a multi-winding transformer to mitigate the unwanted harmonics by phase shifting the transformer secondary windings. Depending on the topology, the transformer can have up to 15 sets of secondary windings. Elimination of the isolation transformer reduces capital and installation costs, saves on valuable floor space, and increases overall system efficiency.

Line current
Line-to-line voltage at PCC
The AFE rectifier requires a switching pattern that complies with similar rules as the inverter. The pattern, used for the example shown in Figure 3
, is a 42-pulse selective harmonic elimination (SHE) pattern, which eliminates the 5th, 7th and 11th harmonics. The integral input capacitors are designed to reduce the current harmonics of the higher order. The filter transfer function technique is used to place the filter break frequency in a region where no harmonics are present. This prevents the excitation of system harmonic frequencies. Other factors that are considered when designing the filter are the input power factor and the requirement on Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) of input current and voltage waveforms.
The AFE rectifier is ideal when a distribution transformer is required to step down the distribution voltage to match the VFD and motor voltage. The rectifier input current, the rectifier terminal voltage and the line current and voltage waveforms are shown in Figure 3
. The line current THD is approximately 4.5%, while line-to-line voltage THD is approximately 1.5%. (THD of line voltage is a function of system impedance.) Input power factor with the AFE rectifier is equal to or greater than 0.98 for the typical speed and load range when applied to variable torque loads.

“Direct-to-Drive” Technology

The PowerFlex 7000L with “Direct-to-Drive” technology allows you to:
connect supply power directly to the drive without an Isolation Tr a n s f o r m e r
connect a new or existing motor directly to the drive without extra motor filtering.
Most Medium Voltage Drive Manufacturers use multi-winding isolation transformers to mitigate unwanted harmonics by phase shifting the transformer secondary windings. Depending on the topology, the transformer can have up to 15 sets of secondary windings. The disadvantages to this method are the high degree of drive and transformer complexity, a very high component count and many interconnecting cables and connection points. This leads to much higher maintenance requirements and lower reliability.
Rockwell Automation Publication 7000L-UM301D-EN-P - June 2014 19
Chapter 1 Overview of Drive
Manufacturers also use isolation transformers to protect motors from Common Mode Voltage stress. When transformers are used they allow the motor neutral point to be connected to ground, but with this method, the common mode voltage that would otherwise be impressed on the motor is impressed on the transformer. The disadvantage to this method is that increased transformer insulation and increased cable insulation is required between the transformer and the drive so it can withstand the common mode voltage stress.
Rather than use an Isolation Transformer, the “Direct-to-Drive” Active Front End uses the semiconductor switching pattern to reduce line current harmonics to levels that comply to the world’s most accepted harmonic standards. The Active Front End is the best method of harmonic cancellation because it does not suffer from complexity and high component count like multi-pulse drive topologies do.
“Direct-to-Drive” technology produces virtually no common mode voltage so it is suitable for new or existing motors and imposes no stress on the drive input. The advantage of “Direct-to-Drive” technology over an Isolation Transformer is that no extra insulation is required in the motor, in the motor cables or in the line cables.
In addition to mitigating Common Mode Voltage, “Direct-to-Drive” technology mitigates dv/dt or Reflected Wave Voltage Stress on motors.
The simplicity of its design results in a lower initial capital investment, lower operating cost, lower installation cost and lower maintenance cost relative to drives that require isolation transformers.
The PowerFlex 7000L with “Direct-to-Drive” technology is typically smaller and lighter than drive technologies that use Isolation Transformers. Isolation Transformers represent 30 to 50% of a drive system size and 50 to 70% of the system’s weight. This means that there is no interwiring between drive and transformer (for external transformer configurations). This makes the PowerFlex 7000L the simplest to install.

Motor Compatibility

The PowerFlex 7000L achieves near sinusoidal current and voltage waveforms to the motor, resulting in no significant additional heating or insulation stress. Temperature rise in the motor connected to the VFD is typically 3°C (5.5°F) higher compared to across the line operation. Dv/dt in the voltage waveform is less than 10 volts / microsecond. The peak voltage that the motor insulation will see is the rated motor RMS voltage divided by 0.707. Reflected wave and dv/dt issues often associated with VSI (voltage source inverter) drives are a non-issue with the PowerFlex 7000L. Typical motor waveforms are shown in Figure 4
. These motor friendly waveforms are achieved by utilizing a selective harmonic elimination (SHE) pattern in the inverter to eliminate major order harmonics, in conjunction with a small output capacitor (integral to the drive) to eliminate harmonics at higher speeds.
Standard motors are compatible without derating, even on retrofit applications.
Motor cable distance is virtually unlimited. This technology has been tested, controlling motors up to 15 km (9.3 miles) away from the drive.

SGCT Features and Benefits

An SGCT is a Symmetrical Gate Commutated Thyristor with an integrated gate drive. Positioning the gate drive close to the SGCT as shown in Figure 5 low inductance path that provides more efficient and uniform gating of the device. As a result, the device is better suited than a conventional GTO to handle the fluctuating levels of voltage and current while it is switching on and off during gating.
An SGCT has similar characteristics to an IGCT (used on some VSI drives), including low conduction and switching losses, low failure rate, and double sided cooling for low thermal stress. However, the SGCT achieves voltage blocking capability in both forward and reverse directions up to 6500 volts by a NPT (N
on-Punch-Through) structure and nearly symmetrical pnp transistor in the wafer, while the current is unidirectional. Unlike many VSI topologies that use IGBTs, the semiconductors used in the PowerFlex 7000L feature a non-rupture, non-arc failure mode. In the unlikely event of a device failure, the fault would be contained within the device.
Implementing SGCTs in the PowerFlex 7000L “B” Frame results in significant advantages including:
1. Simplification of the snubber design and a reduction in the size of the snubber capacitor by a factor of 10.
, creates a
2. Operation at a higher switching frequency (420-540 Hz), hence reducing the size of passive components (DC link inductor and motor filter cap) by 50%.
3. Improving performance of the drive.
4. Reduction of component count, hence improving reliability, cost, and size
of the drive.
5. Fail safe failure mode (non-rupture).

Direct Vector Control

Control Hardware

The method of control in the PowerFlex 7000 “C” Frame medium voltage AC drive is called sensorless direct vector control, meaning that the stator current is divided into torque producing and flux producing components, allowing the motor torque to be changed quickly without affecting motor flux. This method of control is used without encoder feedback for applications requiring continuous operation above 6 Hz and less than 100% starting torque.
Full vector control can also be achieved with encoder feedback for applications requiring continuous operation down to 0.2 Hz with up to 150% starting torque. Vector control offers superior performance over volts/hertz type drives. The speed bandwidth range is 5...25 rad/s, while the torque bandwidth range is
15...50 rad/s.
The control hardware includes a processor board (DPM) with an interface to six fiber optic boards (depending on the voltage and number of switching devices) via OIBB, an analog conditioning board (ACB) and an external IO board (XIO). The control hardware is used for rectifier and inverter, induction or synchronous drive control and the two rectifier types (18 Pulse or Active Front End).
The DPM features two floating point DSPs (Digital Signal Processor) and a FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) for advanced functions such as gating and diagnostics, fault handling and drive synchronization control.

Safety and Codes

Unpacking and Inspection

WARNING: The Canadian Electrical Code (CEC), National Electrical Code (NEC),
or local codes outline provisions for safely installing electrical equipment. Installation MUST comply with specifications regarding wire type, conductor sizes, branch circuit protection and disconnect devices. Failure to do so may result in personal injury and/or equipment damage.
Before leaving the factory, all drives have been tested both mechanically and electrically. Immediately upon receiving the drive, remove the packing and check for possible shipping damage. Report any damage immediately to the claims office of the common carrier.
After unpacking the material, check the item(s) received against the bill of lading to assure that the nameplate description of each item agrees with the material ordered. Inspect the PowerFlex 7000 drive for physical damage, as stated in the Rockwell Automation Conditions of Sale.
All claims for breakage and damage whether concealed or obvious must be made to the carrier by the Customer as soon as possible after receipt of the shipment. Rockwell Automation will be glad to give the Customer reasonable assistance in the securing of adjustment for such damage claims.

Transportation and Handling

Remove all packing material, wedges, or braces from within the drive. Operate the contactors and relays manually to assure that they operate freely. If any part of the equipment will not be installed when it is unpacked, it should be stored in a clean, dry place. The storage temperature must be between -40°C (-40°F) and 70°C (185°F) with a maximum humidity of 95%, non-condensing, to guard against damage to temperature sensitive components in the controller.
The PowerFlex 7000 drive is shipped on a wooden skid, which is bolted to the underside of the cabinetry. The drive should remain bolted to the shipping skid until it is delivered to its final installation area. Lifting angles are supplied bolted to the top of the cabinetry. The drive must be kept in an upright position during any handling. Refer to General Handling Procedures, publication 7000-IN002_­EN-P for a more detailed description.
The drive must be transported on a pallet or via use of the lifting beam supplied as part of all 2300 mm (91 in.) high cabinets.
Rockwell Automation Publication 7000L-UM301D-EN-P - June 2014 33
Chapter 2 Drive Installation
IMPORTANT
ATT EN TI ON : Ensure that the load rating of the lifting device is sufficient to
safely raise the controller sections. Refer to the packing slip enclosed with shipment for shipping weights.
Round rollers can be used to assist in moving the drive to the installation site. Once at the final site, the pipe rolling technique can be used to place the cabinet in the desired position.
f
WARNING: Care must be exercised when using either a forklift or the pipe rolling technique for positioning purposes to ensure that the equipment is not scratched, dented or damaged in any manner. Always exercise care to stabilize the drive during handling to guard against tipping and injury to personnel.
It is extremely important that the customer’s installation duties are performed correctly. Any errors will cause damage to the Drive and delays in commissioning.
Never attempt to lift or move the drive by any means other than the methods listed, as structural damage or personal injury could result. The following methods of handling are recommended:

Overhead Lifting

1. Attach rigging to the lifting angles on the top of the cabinetry.
ATTENTION: Ensure that the load rating of the lifting device and rigging is sufficient to safely raise the drive. Refer to shipping weights on the packing slip enclosed with the shipment.
2. Do not pass ropes or cables through the support holes in the lifting angles. Use slings with safety hooks or shackles.
3. Select or adjust the rigging lengths to compensate for an unequal weight distribution of load and maintain the drive in an upright position.
4. To reduce the tension on the rigging and the compressive load on the lifting device, do not allow the angle between the lifting cables/chains and vertical to exceed 45 degrees.
ATTENTION: Drives may contain heavy equipment that could be adversely affected by tilting.

Rod or Pipe Rollers

This method is only suitable when there are no inclines and the drive is being moved on one floor level.
1. Boards 50.8 mm x 152.4 mm (2 in. x 6 in.) or equivalent and at least 300 mm (12 inches) longer than the drive must be placed under the shipping skid.
2. Carefully ease the shipping platform over the roller pipes until the drive weight is borne on the roller pipes.
3. The drive can be rolled to its designated location. Steady the load to prevent tipping.

Chapter 2 Drive Installation

Fork Lift Trucks

A single fork lift truck may be used on drives not exceeding 3 m (120 inches) in length if the lift truck has sufficient lifting capacity. Larger drives can be moved with two forklift trucks operating in tandem.
1. Insert forks into openings of shipping skids from the rear of the drive.
2. Carefully balance the drive on the forks because the drives are usually
heavier at one side.
3. Use safety straps when handling to steady the drive while moving.

Storage

If it is necessary to store the drive, be certain to store in a clean dry dust free area.
Storage temperature should be maintained between -40°C (-40°F) and 70°C (185°F). If storage temperature fluctuates or if humidity exceeds 85%, space heaters should be used to prevent condensation. The drive should be stored in a heated building having adequate air circulation. The drive must never be stored outdoors.

Siting of the Drive

Site Considerations

The standard environment in which the equipment is designed to operate is:
Elevation above sea level less than 1000 meters (3250 feet)
Ambient air temperature between 0°C (32°F) and 40°C (104°F)
Relative humidity of the air not to exceed 95% non-condensing
For the equipment to operate in conditions other than those specified consult the local Rockwell Automation Sales office.
The equipment requires the following site conditions:
(A) Indoor installation only, no dripping water or other fluids
(B) Clean air for cooling requirements
(C) Level floor for anchoring the equipment. Refer to dimension drawings for
the location of the anchoring points.
(D) The room in which the equipment is located must allow for full opening of
the doors of the equipment, typically 1200 mm (48 inches). Also, allowances have to be made for clearance for fan removal. This fan allowance must be greater than 700 mm (27.5 inches).
or
36 Rockwell Automation Publication 7000L-UM301D-EN-P - June 2014
Drive Installation Chapter 2
Dimension drawings can be obtained by contacting the local Rockwell Automation Sales office. The equipment does not require rear access for servicing.
(E) Allowance must be made for the stream of cooling air which exits the drive
at the top. The flow of cooling air into and out the drive must be kept clear and uninhibited.
(F) The room in which the equipment is located must be large enough to
accommodate the thermal losses of the equipment since air conditioning may be required; the ambient temperature must not exceed that for which the equipment is rated. The heat created by the drive is directly proportional to the power of the motor being driven and the efficiency of equipment within the room. If thermal load data is required contact the Rockwell Automation Sales office.
(G) The area in which the drive is located should be free of radio frequency
interference such as encountered with some welding units. This may cause erroneous fault conditions and shut down the drive.
(H) The equipment must be kept clean. Dust in the equipment decreases
system reliability and inhibits cooling.

Installation

(I) Power cable lengths to the motor are virtually unlimited due to the near
sinusoidal voltage and current waveforms. Unlike voltage source drives, there are no capacitive coupling, dv/dt, or peak voltage issues that can damage the motor insulation system. The CSI-PWM topology utilized in the PowerFlex 7000 medium voltage AC drive has been tested with motors located up to 15 km (9.3 miles) from the drive.
(J) Only personnel familiar with the function of the drive should have access
to the equipment.
(K) The drive is designed for front access and should be installed with
adequate and safe clearance to allow for total door opening. The back of the unit may be placed against a wall although some customers prefer back access also. If back access is desired, set drive 300 mm (12 inches) out from wall.
.
ATTENTION: An incorrectly applied or installed drive can result in component damage or a reduction in product life. Ambient conditions not within the specified ranges may result in malfunction of the drive.
When the drive has been placed at its installation area, the lag bolts that fasten the shipping skid to the drive must be removed. The drive is moved off the shipping skid and the shipping skid can be discarded.
Position the drive in its desired location. Verify that the drive is on a level surface and that the position of the drive will be vertical when the anchor bolts are installed.

ATT EN TI ON : Refer to the technical drawings and installation manual for your
Drive mounting instructions. Failure to correctly anchor the cabinet may result in damage to the equipment or injury to personnel. Contact the area Rockwell Automation sales office if you do not have these documents.

Shock Indication Labels

Shock indication labels are devices that permanently record the physical shock to which equipment is subjected.
At the time of final preparation for shipment from the factory, a shock indication label is installed on the inside door of the converter cabinet.
During the shipping and installation process drives may inadvertently be subjected to excess shock and vibration which may impair its functionality.
When the drive has been placed in its installation area, the converter door is to be opened and the shock indication labels inspected.
The drive is shipped with a label that records shock levels in excess of 10G. If these shock levels have been attained, the chevron shaped window will appear blue in one of the two windows.
If these shock levels have been attained, record the values. There is a greater possibility of the drive having sustained internal damage if it has been subjected to physical shock during the shipping and installation process.
Even if the indicators show that no shock was attained, full inspection and verification in accordance with the Commissioning process outlined in Chapter 4 is still essential.

IEC Component and Device Designation

PowerFlex 7000 electrical drawings use conventions that are based on IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) standards, while remaining basically compatible with North American ANSI (American National Standards Institute) standards. The symbols used to identify components on the drawings are international and a full listing of the symbols is given as part of each PowerFlex 7000 elementary drawing (ED) set. The device designations used on the drawings and labeling are also listed with explanations on each drawing set.
Wiring identification uses a source/destination wire number convention on point to point multi-conductor wiring and in situations where the system is warranted. The wire-numbering system of unique, single numbers for multi-drop and point to point wiring continues to be used for general control and power wiring. Wiring that connects between the sheets or that ends at one point and starts at another point on a drawing has an arrow and drawing reference to indicate the ongoing connection. The drawing reference indicates the sheet and the X/Y coordinates of the continuation point. The reference system is explained on a sheet in each drawing set. The unique wire numbering system serves as confirmation that the correct wire is being traced from sheet to sheet or across a drawing. Wires in multi-conductor cables are typically identified by color rather than by number. The abbreviations used to identify the colors on the drawings are fully identified on a sheet in the drawing set.

Power Wiring Selection

The following tables identify general wire selections that will be encountered when installing the PowerFlex 7000 drive line-up.

General Notes

Adherence to the following recommended field power cabling insulation levels for medium voltage drives will help to ensure trouble-free start-up and operation. The cable insulation level must be increased over that which would be supplied for an across-the-line application with the same rated line-to-line voltage.
Either shielded or unshielded cable may be used based on the criteria considered by the distribution system designer and local standards. However, NEC requires shielded cable for installations above 2 kV.
68 Rockwell Automation Publication 7000L-UM301D-EN-P - June 2014

Note 1: Steel conduit or cable tray may be used for all PowerFlex 7000 Drive power or control wiring, and steel conduit is required for all
PowerFlex 7000 Drive signal wiring. All input and output power wiring, control wiring or conduit should be brought through the drive conduit entry holes of the enclosure. Use appropriate connectors to maintain the environmental rating of the enclosure. The steel conduit is REQUIRED for all control and signal circuits, when the drive is installed in European Union countries. The connection of the conduit to the enclosure shall be on full 360 degree and the ground bond at the junction shall be less than 0.1 ohms. In EU countries this is a usual practice to install the control and signal wiring.
Note 2: Spacing between wire groups is the recommended minimum for parallel runs of 61 m (200 feet) or less. Note 3: The customer is responsible for the grounding of shields. On drives shipped after November 28/02, the shields are removed from
the drive boards. On drives shipped prior to November 28/02, all shields are connected at the drive end and these connections must be removed before grounding the shield at the customer end of the cable. Shields for cables from one enclosure to another must be grounded only at the source end cabinet. If splicing of shielded cables is required, the shield must remain continuous and insulated from ground.
Note 4: AC and DC circuits must be run in separate conduits or trays. Note 5: Voltage drop in motor leads may adversely affect motor starting and running performance. Installation and application
requirements may dictate that larger wire sizes than indicated in IEC / NEC guidelines are used.

Drive Installation Chapter 2
The wire sizes must be selected individually, observing all applicable safety and CEC or IEC / NEC regulations. The minimum permissible wire size does not necessarily result in the best operating economy. The minimum recommended size for the wires between the drive and the motor is the same as that used if a main voltage source connection to the motor was used. The distance between the drive and motor may affect the size of the conductors used.
Consult the wiring diagrams and appropriate CEC or IEC / NEC regulations to determine correct power wiring. If assistance is needed, contact your local Rockwell Automation Sales Office.

Power Cabling Access

The drive is built with provision for either the top or bottom power cable entry.
Cable access plates are provided on the top and bottom plates of the connection cabinet identified by the customer specific dimension drawing.

Access the Customer Power Cable Terminations:

Open the door of the low voltage control compartment. The low voltage control compartment is hinged on its left side. The power terminals are behind the low voltage control compartment.
Note that there is a key interlock to prevent swinging the low voltage control compartment open unless the medium voltage source is locked out.
Turn each of the three latches on the right side of the low voltage compartment one-quarter turn using an 8-mm hexagonal key wrench. There is a pull handle provided on the right side of the low voltage compartment.
Slowly pull the handle so that the low voltage compartment swings out. The power terminals are now visible.
The installer is responsible for modifying the power cable access plates to suit the requirements.

Pipe Materials and Layout

All material that contacts fluid between the heat exchanger and drive must be either Schedule 80 CPVC or stainless steel. Rockwell Automation recommends using stainless steels AISI 304L or 316L to connect the drives to heat exchangers. Use 304L and 316L welding wire to avoid sensitization of the welded material. Sensitization due to incorrect welding causes localized corrosion of the welded area. Pressures expected within a drive are below 75 psi with test pressures of 110 psi.
Schedule 80 CPVC piping may be installed within a climate controlled building with any outside pipe of stainless steel. Shield CPVC from direct sunlight to prevent UV damage. Use expansion loops for long pipe runs.
See document CTS-3 "CPVC CTS Products Design and Installation Manual" from Spears Manufacturing Company (www.spearsmfg.com
) for more
information.

External Piping to the Drive

External Piping Cleaning

Rockwell Automation liquid-cooled drive piping and heat exchangers are flushed and cleaned at the factory and piping is capped to prevent contamination. Leave the drive pipe caps installed until final assembly.
Use stainless steel capped piping and valves to maintain cleanliness before welding or assembly. Parts must be stored in a clean, dry area.
All external piping must be cleaned and flushed before installation to ensure proper coolant system and drive pump operation.
Rockwell Automation Publication 7000L-UM301D-EN-P - June 2014 77
Chapter 2 Drive Installation
Before welding or assembly:
Remove debris, particulate, oils and greases from inside pipes and valves before welding.
Use a high-pressure water spray to remove debris and particulate from pipes and valve.
Remove oils and greases with solvents.
Finished pipe system
1. Circulate hot water with industrial detergent through external piping system only for at least 4...8 hours. Maintain a water temperature of 60…71 °C (140…160 °F). Do not circulate through the drive piping.
2. Circulate clean hot water until the effluent is clear.
Do not allow oils, greases, solvents, cleaning detergents or other cleaning agents to contact or enter the drive piping as this may cause stress cracking of CPVC piping.
Refer to ASTM A 380-06 "Standard Practice for Cleaning, Descaling, and Passivation of Stainless Steel Parts, Equipment, and Systems" for additional information.
Controlled Siphon into Open­top Reservoir
Rockwell Automation recommends this method of pipe routing for pipes and heat exchangers higher than the reservoir coolant level. The reservoir is located in the VFD pump cabinet. This method controls the siphoning of coolant into the open top reservoir when the coolant pumps are off for maintenance. It prevents the siphoning of all pipes higher than the reservoir liquid level causing reservoir overflow. Siphoning occurs only when both pumps are off.
1. Ensure vertical pipe from drive to vent valve is the same size (1-1/2" or
2.0") as the main VFD pipe. The rear outlet flanges may be 1-1/2" or 2.0" size. Keep the vertical pipe this exact size to maintain minimum coolant siphon flow into reservoir. Add 1-1/2" Ball Check Valve (Rockwell Part 80025-750-01, Flow Coefficient Cv 80 or equivalent) into vertical exit piping. Increase pipe size to 2.0" or 3.0" respectively for the remainder of the pipe circuit.
2. Vents to the top of the reservoir may be 1.0" CPVC pipe or PVC hose. The end shall not be immersed into the reservoir coolant. Cut a hole into the top of the reservoir to allow leakage flow.

IMPORTANT

Power and Control Wiring

Drive line-ups (i.e. Drive and Input Starter) which are delivered in two or more sections, for ease of handling, will require that the power and control wiring be re-connected. After the sections are brought together, the power and control wiring is to be reconnected as per the schematic drawings provided.

Control Cables

Control cable entry/exit should be located near the terminal block “TBC” – the customer’s connections are to be routed along the empty side of the TBC terminals. These terminals are sized to accept a maximum AWG #14 wire gauge. The low voltage signals (includes 4-20mA) are to be connected using twisted shielded cable, with a minimum AWG #18 wire gauge. (Based on using a W4 terminal block for customer connections, comparable wire sizes would be
0.5...4 mm
Of special concern is the encoder signal. Two encoder inputs are provided to accommodate a quadrature encoder (senses motor direction). The encoder power supply is isolated and provides +15V and a ground reference. Many encoder outputs have an open collector output, in which case a pull-up resistor must be added to ensure that proper signals are fed to the system logic. (Refer to When is
an Encoder Required? on page 414 (Appendix A) to see if one needs to be
supplied.)
2
as equivalent to #22-#10 AWG.)
Low voltage signals are to be connected using twisted shielded cable with the shield connected at the signal source end only. The shield at the other end is to be wrapped with electrical tape and isolated. Connections are to be made as shown on the drawings provided.

Encoder Installation Guidelines

The most frequent problems encountered when transmitting an encoder’s signal(s) to the drive are signal distortion and electrical noise. Either of these problems can result in a gain or loss of encoder data counts (quadrature encoders) or corrupt positional data (absolute encoders). Many of these problems can be avoided by applying good installation and wiring practices. This section is a general guideline and recommended practices for field installed equipment. It applies to either encoder board and both quadrature and absolute encoders.
Protection from Radiated and Conducted Noise
Reasonable care should be taken when connecting and routing power and signal wiring on a machine or system. Radiated noise from nearby relays, solenoids, transformers, non linear loads (such as motor drives) etc. can couple onto signal wires producing undesired pulses. In fact the encoder itself may induce noise into signal lines run adjacent to it.
Rockwell Automation Publication 7000L-UM301D-EN-P - June 2014 83
Chapter 2 Drive Installation
Wrong Shield
Connection
Encoder
Drive
To avoid radiated and/or conducted noise, power and signal lines should be run separately with a minimum distance between them of at least 75 mm (3 inches). If they have to overlap somewhere in the system, then the power lines should be run at 90° to the signal lines. Signal lines should also use twisted pair shielded cable and run in separate conduit that should be grounded to the building ground.
Encoder wires and shields should maintain continuity throughout, from the encoder to the drive. Avoid the use of a terminal block in a junction box. This has the potential of creating radiated noise and ground loops.
The encoder case must be grounded to the building ground to insure proper and reliable operation. Most encoders have provision for a case ground connection through the connector/cable pair if a ground connection cannot be made through the mounting bracket/machine ground. DO NOT ground the encoder case through both the machine and cable wiring. Use low capacitance wires (≤40pf/ft) with 100% shield coverage for long cable runs and connect the shield only at the drive end.
Figure 67 - Detail Power Terminal Dimensions
For more protection against electrical noise, specify an encoder with complementary outputs and connect with twisted pair cable. With this type of cabling, the induced currents will self-cancel.
As a final precaution, ground the shield together with all other parts of the system that require grounding to a single point ground. This will reduce varying ground potentials caused by high current fluxes created by motors, remote control switches and magnetic fields.
Signal Distortion
The primary cause of signal distortion is cable length, more specifically cable capacitance. Generally speaking the longer the cable length the more there is a chance of signal distortion at the receiving end. The receiving end responds to either a logical ‘0’ or a logical ‘1’. Anywhere in between is undefined and the transition through this region should be < 1.0us. If the leading edge of the waveform is distorted it causes the transition time through this region to increase. At some point, the receiver may become unstable and either gain or lose encoder counts.
84 Rockwell Automation Publication 7000L-UM301D-EN-P - June 2014
Drive Installation Chapter 2
To reduce the effects of signal distortion at the encoder receiving electronics, the following guidelines should be considered:
1. Use a low capacitance cable. Purchase a cable that has a capacitance of <120pf/m (40pf/ft). As an example Belden 1529A is an 18Awg 3pair cable having a capacitance of 114pf/m (35pf/ft).
2. Use twisted pair cabling with a shield that covers 100% of the cable. This is especially true in the case of quadrature encoders. It is still a better choice for absolute encoders, although the data in these encoders will not exhibit the same frequency spectrum as quadrature encoders and single wire cabling can be used. In either case, always check with the encoder manufacturer for the recommended cable.
3. Keep cable distances as short as is practically possible. Rockwell Automation’s recommendation for cable distances are:
a. For the 20B-ENC encoders, the distance should be kept to a maximum
of 65m (200 ft). Longer cable distances could cause excessive surge currents. The operating frequency of the encoder has no bearing on this recommended distance due to AC Termination used. However, if the frequency can be kept so that the cable's characteristic impedance is around 348ohms, this will improve the surge currents and may increase the maximum distance to 100m (330 ft).
b. For the Universal Encoder Interface, the distance can be extended out
to 200 m (650 ft) @ 100 Khz. This distance can be increased to 500m at frequencies below 55 Khz. It is not recommended to exceed this distance since the voltage drop across the cable could cause a lower than expected power at the encoder.
Unused Inputs
Not all inputs, in either the quadrature or absolute encoders, may be necessary. For example, the absolute encoder can accept a 12bit encoder but will work with a lower resolution. Likewise, quadrature encoders may not utilize the Z track. The following should be used for unused inputs:
1. 20B-ENC Board. Any unused input should be wired to the encoder power rail. This also includes the B and B’ inputs if using a pulse encoder. Failure to do this will result in phase loss warnings and improper operation of the encoder feedback logic (i.e. missing counts).
2. Universal Encode Interface. When used as a quadrature encoder interface, the same rule applies as for the 20B-ENC Board. When operating as an absolute encoder interface, the wiring of unused inputs is dependent on the position of the POL_QRDNT jumper. If the jumper is installed, then wire all unused inputs to ENC PWR, otherwise use ENC COM.

Grounding Practices

The purpose of grounding is to:
provide for the safety of personnel
limit dangerous voltages on exposed parts with respect to ground
facilitate proper overcurrent device operation under ground fault
conditions, and
provide for electrical interference suppression
Generally, the means used for external grounding of equipment should be in accordance with the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC), C22.1 or the National Electrical Code (NEC), NFPA 70 and applicable local codes.
Refer to the grounding diagrams that follow for ground connections. The drive’s main ground bus must be connected to the system ground. This ground bus is the common ground point for all grounds internal to the drive.
Figure 70 - Ground Connection Diagram with Isolation Transformer
Figure 71 - Ground Connection Diagram with Line Reactor
Each power feeder from the substation transformer to the drive must be provided with properly sized ground cables. Utilizing the conduit or cable armor as a ground on its own is not adequate.
Note that if a drive isolation transformer is used, the WYE secondary neutral point should not be grounded.
Each AC motor frame must be bonded to grounded building steel within 6 m (20 feet) of its location and tied to the drive’s ground bus via ground wires within
Rockwell Automation Publication 7000L-UM301D-EN-P - June 2014 87
Chapter 2 Drive Installation
the power cables and/or conduit. The conduit or cable armor should be bonded to ground at both ends.

Grounding Guidelines and Practices for Drive Signal and Safety Grounds

When interface cables carrying signals, where the frequency does not exceed 1 MHz, are attached for communications with the drive, the following general guidelines should be followed:
It is good practice for the mesh of a screen to be grounded around its whole circumference, rather than forming a pigtail that is grounded at one point.
Coaxial cables with a single conductor surrounded by a mesh screen should have the screen grounded at both ends.
Where a multi-layer screened cable is used (that is, a cable with both a mesh screen and a metal sheath or some form of foil), there are two alternative methods:
– The mesh screen may be grounded at both ends to the metal sheath.
The metal sheath or foil (known as the drain) should, unless otherwise specified, be grounded at one end only, again, as specified above, at the receiver end or the end which is physically closest to the main equipment ground bus.
or
– The metal sheath or foil may be left insulated from ground and the
other conductors and the mesh cable screen grounded at one end only as stated above.

Grounding Requirements and Grounding Specification for Customers and Power Integrators

An external ground must be attached to the main ground bus. The grounding means must comply with applicable local codes and standards. As general guidelines, for information only, the ground path must be of sufficiently low impedance and capacity that:
the rise in potential of the drive ground point when subjected to a current of twice the rating of the supply should be no higher than 4 volts over ground potential.
the current flowing into a ground fault will be of sufficient magnitude to cause the protection to operate.
The main grounding conductor(s) should be run separately from power and signal wiring so that faults:
do not damage the grounding circuit
or
will not cause undue interference with or damage to protection or metering systems, or cause undue disturbance on power lines.

Identification of Types of Electrical Supplies – Grounded and Ungrounded Systems

When dealing with an ungrounded, three-phase electrical supply system, the cable insulation must be capable of handling not only the phase-to-phase voltage, but also the voltage-to-ground if one of the other phases develops a ground fault. In practice, the cable insulation of an ungrounded, three-phase system must be good for at least a continuous voltage of root three (1.732) times (1.1) times the rated voltage of the supply. (1.732 x 1.1 = 1.9 times the rated line-to-line voltage)

Ground Bus

The drive ground bus runs along the top of the drive at the front. The ground bus is accessible at the top of each of the drive enclosures when the enclosure door is opened (and the low voltage compartment hinged out in the case of the incomer cabinet). It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure that the drive is grounded properly, typically at the point on the ground bus in the incomer cabinet, close to the incoming power terminations.

Interlocking

Access to the medium voltage areas of the drive is restricted by the use of key interlocking for safety.
At installation the key interlocking is set up so that access to the medium voltage compartments of the equipment can only be made when the upstream power is locked in the off position.
Additionally, the key interlocking prohibits the upstream power being applied until the medium voltage drive’s access doors have been closed and locked shut.
It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure that the key interlocking is installed properly to the upstream equipment.

Keypad

The keypad of the operator interface consists of two rows of five function keys (item 1 of Figure 72
Figure 72
will be referred to as the cursor keys (item 2 of Figure 72 are data entry keys consisting of the numeric values 0...9, a decimal point (.), a negative (-), a backspace key and a data entry key (item 3 of Figure 72
All keys are of a membrane type. The key is executed upon release.

).

Function (Softkeys) Keys

Along the bottom of the display area is one or two rows of 'Softkeys'. These 'Softkeys' represent the physical function keys. The function of the actual keys will vary between displays. The bottom row of keys (i.e. F6 through F10) is always shown. The upper row is shown only if they are required for keys (F2 through F5). Thus a single row of 'Softkeys' always refers to the keys F6 through F10.
Even though the upper row of Softkeys (e.g. F1 through F5) may not be shown on some displays, the F1-HELP key is always active. (F2 through F5) are only active if shown.

Cursor (Selection) Keys

The cursor keys are normally used to select an item on the display. When an item on the display is selected, that item will be displayed in reverse video. To change the selection, press the key in the desired direction.
On selection screens having more than one page, the page will automatically change when the cursor is moved beyond the displayed list.
Some displays, such as the Utility screen, use these keys to modify the data value. Pressing the [cursor up] and [cursor down] keys will change the value by a fine amount, e.g. one unit. Using the [cursor left] and [cursor right] keys will change the value by a course amount, e.g. 10 units.
For entries requiring a HEX value, the keys (cursor up/down) are used to scroll to the desired HEX value.
For parameters which contain an Enumeration string, pressing either the up or down key will provide a list of options to pick from. Using the cursor keys, make a selection and press enter. If more options exist than can be displayed on the screen, a triangle symbol or inverted triangle to the right of the list will show that there are more selections available in the indicated direction. Continue to use the up/down cursor keys to move to these additional selections.

Chapter 3 Operator Interface
For parameters that are comprised of bit fields, the left/right keys are used to move to the desired bit field. The up and down keys toggle the bit between its possible states.
All four cursor keys have an auto feature such that after holding the key for two seconds, the key will automatically repeat at a rate of five ‘presses’ per second.

Data Entry Keys

As the name implies, these keys are used to enter data. Pressing the keys [0] through [9] will enter the corresponding value into the 'editing field'. Pressing the [-] key will change the value to a negative number. Pressing the [.] will allow a fractional value to be entered.
While entering a value, the value may be edited using the [backspace] key. This key will remove the right most digit (or decimal point or negative). The help screen uses the backspace key to return to the previous level of help.

What is a Screen?

The enter key varies depending on the screen. If you are in the process of a selection operation, the enter key will accept the selection and proceed to a different screen based on the selection in order to complete the operation. If you are in the process of entering data, the enter key will accept the edited data.
The operator interface uses menu driven screens to perform various operations on the drive. You can think of a screen as a window or template, overlaying data from the drive. The operator interface combines a screen with the drive data, to formulate what you see on the display area of the operator interface. Individual screens display a particular type of data and allow selected operations to be performed on this data. A number of different screens may be used while performing a single operation.

Components

Although the data displayed on any particular screen will vary, the general makeup of a screen is the same for all. Figure 73 components.

Some screens have more than one page associated with them. The current page number and the number of pages which make up the data currently being displayed on the screen is shown in the upper right hand corner (e.g. showing page 1 of 2 pages).
Along the bottom of the screen are one or two rows of 'Softkeys' which represent the assignment to the actual function keys. In Figure 73
, Softkeys F6 through F10
are shown. Pressing F8 will display the next page of data.
In the very lower right-hand corner is a small dot. This dot indicates the healthy state of the operator interface terminal. Under normal conditions this dot will flash at a rate of .5 Hz. During communication errors, the dot will flash at a rate of .1 Hz.

Information Windows

Numerous screens require communications with the drive in order to function. At times, the duration of this activity will be noticeable to you. During this activity, a special 'window' is used within the current screen to inform you of this activity. The time required for the activity will vary.

Accessing/Writing to Drive

When first powered up, the operator interface knows very little about the information in the drive. As each screen is activated, the operator interface requests information from the drive, which it will store within the operator interface for future reference. When the operator interface requests information from the drive, a window is used to display a message "Accessing Drive ...". During this time, the operator interface will not respond to any user input, until the task at hand is completed. You will notice that subsequent activation of the same screen for the same data will be much quicker since the operator interface already has most or all of its required information.
You can selectively choose to download the complete database to the operator interface on command, thus eliminating the initial access the operator interface will automatically download the database on power-up, or during periods of inactivity. Refer to Database Download
Some screens require that information be written to the drive. During this task, a window is used to display the message "Writing to Drive...” During this time, the operator interface will not respond to any user input, until the task at hand is completed.
delays. If uninterrupted,

Communication Error

While the operator interface is reading or writing to the drive, it is possible for communications to be disrupted for a number of reasons. If this were to occur, a special window is used to inform you of this. During this time, the operator interface will not respond to any user input, until the task at hand is completed.

Operator Interface Chapter 3
The window for the "Communication Error" can take on two forms. If a window has already been displayed showing "Accessing Drive" or Writing to Drive", then the communication error message will be added to the window already in use. Some screens constantly read from the drive in order to show real-time data. An example of this is the 'Top Level Menu’. When a communication error occurs on a screen showing real-time data, a window is opened showing a box around the "Communication Error". Two examples of this are shown in Figure 75
Figure 76
.
and
In both cases, once communications has been re-established, the information window will be removed and the operator interface will return to normal operation.

Languange Changing

When the language used by the drive changes, (either via the operator interface or an external device), the operator interface must do considerable work. The database strings are all invalidated, the character set for the server is changed and all strings used by the operator interface are linked to the new language. During this possibly lengthy process, the “Language Changing ...” message is displayed.

General Operation

The operations that can be performed on a screen vary depending on the actual screen being displayed. The majority of the operations are activated by the function keys located along the bottom of the screen. Although the meaning of these keys does change from one screen to the next, there are some functions which are available on most screens and always have the same assignment.
The operations for these latter keys will not be explained within the description of individual screen operations. They are explained here and apply equally to all screens.
F1 - Help
This operation is active on every screen, even if the 'Softkey' is not displayed. Help is context sensitive and will display help that relates to the screen that you are currently viewing.
F6 - Alarms
The F6 'Softkey' will always get you to the Alarm Summary Screen. A new alarm will cause this key to flash in reverse video.
F8 - Next Page
When a screen is capable of displaying data that requires more than one page, this 'Softkey' will be active. The 'Softkey' will increment the page number being viewed.
F9 - Previous Page
When a screen is capable of displaying data that requires more then one page, this 'Softkey' will be active. The 'Softkey' will decrement the page number being viewed.
F10 - Exit
When you are viewing any screen other than the Top Level Menu, this 'Softkey' will return you to the previous screen.

Operator Interface Power-up Sequence

When the operator interface is powered up or reset, it will go through two
noticeable operations:
1. Linking to Drive - During this phase the operator interface is establishing communications with the drive communications board. The screen will also show information about the software product contained in the PowerFlex operator interface, such as:
a. software part number and revision level b. date and time stamp of program creation
2. Obtaining Drive Database - During this phase, the database of information about the drive is obtained from the drive. Obtaining the database at this point in time is optional and may be aborted by pressing any key on the operator interface. Obtaining the entire database does however speed up subsequent operations since relevant portions of the database do not have to be obtained. (Without obtaining the entire database, the operator interface will access portions of the drive database as required. This slows down the first access to the operation that requires the data. Subsequent operations requiring the same data are not affected). Aborting the download will not affect portions of the database already obtained.
Once the database has been obtained, the operator interface will start up in one of two modes, depending on to what degree the drive has previously been configured:

Top Level Menu

1. On an unconfigured drive, the operator interface will enter the 'Setup Wizard' mode. Until the user has gone through the entire 'Setup Wizard', this will be the default mode to power up in. The 'Setup Wizard' can be cancelled at any time by pressing the appropriate softkey.
2. Once the drive has been configured through the 'Setup Wizard', the Top Level Menu, will be displayed from this point forward. The 'Setup Wizard' can be re-entered via the Setup Menu.
This screen (Figure 77) represents the main menu from which all other screens (and the operations which they perform) are activated. To activate an operation, simply press the function key corresponding to the 'Softkey' shown on the screen. A screen for that operation will be displayed. Refer to the section entitled "How To:" for information about the various operations which may be performed.
The screen identifies the drive product to which the operator interface is attached and its overall state of operation. Four digital meters show four selected parameters located in the drive. A Hobbs meter displays the number of hours that the drive has been running.

The status of the drive will show one of the following:
NOT READY – drive is not ready to start
READY – drive will start when commanded
FORWARD RN – drive is running in the forward direction
REVERSE RN – drive is running in the reverse direction
WA RN IN G – d ri ve ha s a wa rn in g
FAULTED – the drive is faulted
DISCHARGING – waiting for the input filter capacitor to discharge on an Active Front End drive before re-start

How To

The following sections describe how to perform the various operations on the drive, using the operator interface. Throughout the discussion, a number of screens will be used to achieve the desired operation. In many cases, the same screen will be used for more than one operation, however with possibly different data from the drive.
Throughout the section, you want to focus on how the operation is performed. The operator interface will take care of what screens are needed to perform the operation.

Obtain Help

Help is obtained for any screen by pressing the [F1] function key. Figure 78 shows the help screen, which is displayed for the Top Level Menu. After the name of the screen (i.e. HELP:) is the name of the screen for which help is being accessed. (In this case the name of the Top Level Menu is REV.) This particular help screen contains three pages. To view page two, press the [F8] key. Page 2 is displayed. To return to page 1, press the [F9] key.
