This document provides procedural information for physically installing the
PowerFlex™ 7000 medium voltage drives. These procedures include removing the
drive components from the truck and transporting the drive to the installation
site within your operation.

This manual is intended for use by plant operations personnel familiar with
moving and siting heavy equipment. Specific experience with medium voltage
and solid-state variable speed drive equipment is NOT required for this part of
the installation process, but is mandatory for subsequent connection processes.

This manual provides information specific to physically unloading and situating a
PowerFlex 7000 drive. It does not include project-specific, nor drive-specific,
topics such as:

• Dimensional and electrical drawings generated for each customer’s order.

• Spare parts lists compiled for each customer’s order.

• Drive-specific technical specifications.

Please refer to the following documents for additional product detail or
instruction relating to PowerFlex 7000 drives:

• Drive-specific Technical Specifications

• Installation Guide: detailed installation and pre-commissioning
information, including an overview of the drive interface and initial
parameter configuration.

• Commissioning Guide required procedures and checklists for Rockwell
Automation commissioning technicians.

• User Manual: instructions for daily and recurring drive usage or
maintenance tasks

• Technical Data: additional troubleshooting, parameters, and specification
information for MV variable frequency drives.

Rockwell Automation provides the site- and installation-specific electrical and
design information to the customer during the order process cycle.

Preface

If you have multiple drive types or power ranges, confirm that you have the
correct documentation for each specific PowerFlex 7000 product:

• ‘A’ Frame for lower power air-cooled configurations (up to approximately
1250 hp/933 kW)

• ‘B’ Frame for higher-power, air-cooled configurations

• ‘C’ Frame for all liquid-cooled configurations

General Precautions

Commissioning Support

ATT EN TI ON : This drive contains ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) sensitive parts

and assemblies. Static control precautions are required when installing, testing,
servicing or repairing this assembly. Component damage can result if ESD
control procedures are not followed. If you are not familiar with static control
procedures, reference Allen-Bradley publication 8000-4.5.2
Electrostatic Damage” or any other applicable ESD protection handbook.

ATT EN TI ON : An incorrectly applied or installed drive can result in component
damage or a reduction in product life. Wiring or application errors, such as,
undersizing the motor, incorrect or inadequate AC supply, or excessive ambient
temperatures can result in malfunction of the system.

ATT EN TI ON : Only personnel familiar with the PowerFlex 7000 Adjustable
Speed Drive (ASD) and associated machinery should plan or implement the
installation, start-up and subsequent maintenance of the system. Failure to
comply may result in personal injury and/or equipment damage.

After installation, Rockwell Automation Medium Voltage Support is responsible
for commissioning activities for the PowerFlex 7000 product line.

Chapter 1

Receiving and Storing Procedures

This document pertains to the Bulletin 7000 family of medium voltage drives.
Additional procedures can apply for specific equipment. See other
documentation provided with the equipment.

ATT EN TI ON : This document applies ONLY to physically moving and siting the
drive cabinetry. For procedures involving joining cabinets and cabling, as well as
electrical installation and grounding requirements, refer to the correct
Installation Manual for your PowerFlex™ 7000 drive.

Read this guide before attempting to move the drive. The instructions help you
safely inspect and transport your Rockwell Automation medium voltage product
to its installation site. Failure to follow the procedures within this guide can result
in personal injury or death, damage to the drive and potential economic loss.

General Handling Information

WARNING: Never attempt to lift or move the drive by any means other than the

handling methods listed in this publication. Failure to do so can result in
personal injury or death, damage to the drive, and potential economic loss.

• Approximate weights: 2300…13,600 kg (5000…30,000 lb).

• Rockwell Automation strongly recommends using professional riggers
with suitable rated lifting equipment to move the drive to its final
installation site.

• Have qualified professionals inspect all lifting equipment.

• Keep the drive in an upright position. Some units are top-heavy and can
fall over if tilted.

• Install the drive on a level (+/- 1 mm per meter [+/- 0.036 in. per 36 in.] of
drive length in all directions) floor. Use metal shims if necessary.

• Be aware the cabinets are not rigid structures. Avoid torquing or twisting
the cabinets while siting the drives or joining shipping splits.

• Only use fasteners with a minimum metric Grade 10.9 (SAE Grade 8)
strength. Rockwell Automation strongly recommends using Crosby bolt­type shackles.

• Close and secure all drive doors before moving the equipment.
