the Heating, Ventilation & Air Conditioning
(HVAC) industry.
Key design features include:
• Automatic energy optimisation
• Motor thermal overload protection
• Automatic switching frequency optimisation for
minimised acoustic noise generation
• Zero de-rating of motor
• Automatic motor tuning at switch-on
• Earth fault protection

ECO OPERATING INSTRUCTION
MANUAL
The Eco Operating Instructions booklet (which
should be read in conjunction with this manual)
provides basic information on equipment
installation and programming, to control the
functions of fans and pump motors. It is aimed at
HVAC Installation Technicians and Electricians
working and commissioning on-site, and is
intended to provide a quick, straightforward guide
to installing and simple operating of the Eco units.
ECO REFERENCE MANUAL
This Manual - The Eco Reference Manual is
intended for use by a wide range of HVAC
professionals. For example, the Eco Reference
Manual is to be used by Building Automation
Engineers to plan their equipment and cabling
schedules and estimate their material
requirements. HVAC Consultants may also use it
in order to compile the relevant portions of their
tender specification.
The ability to easily control the speed of pump or
fan motors provides superior regulation and
control of the process, enabling optimisation of
room temperatures and personal comfort levels.
The Eco range combines ease of installation and
commissioning with low maintenance and
operating costs. In addition, the specific HVAC
product functionality (compared with similar
products aimed at “Hi-Tech” multiple applications)
means that product costs can be minimised, and
the user does not pay for features which are not
required.
Day-to-day operating costs can be drastically
reduced - up to 60% in some applications. Energy
consumption and associated emissions are also
reduced to the lowest possible levels.
The Eco Reference Manual should also be useful
to electrical panel builders, building automation
control engineers, quantity surveyors / estimators,
electrical project managers, and maintenance
contractors.

3.PRINCIPLES OF INVERTER OPERATION
INTRODUCTION
This section of the manual is intended to help
first-time users of variable speed drives to
understand basic principles of operation, and gain
some insight into successful installation and
application of the MICROMASTER Eco range of
Variable Speed Drives.
VARIABLE SPEED DRIVES
A Variable Speed Drive (VSD) system consists of
a Motor and some form of speed controller.
History
Early electric VSDs consisted of AC and DC
motor combinations which were used as rotating
AC to DC converters. The DC supply was used to
drive the DC motor at variable speed by
controlling the field current in the DC generator to
vary the DC voltage to the DC motor.
The first electronic controllers used Thyristor
(SCR) Rectifiers which controlled the voltage, and
therefore the speed of DC motors. These DC
VSDs are still widely used and offer very
sophisticated control capability. However, the DC
motor is large, expensive and requires periodic
brush maintenance.
Present day
The AC induction motor is simple, low cost,
reliable and widely used throughout the world. In
order to control the speed of an AC induction
motor a more complex controller, which varies
the frequency as well as the voltage, usually
called an inverter is required.
Induction motor
In order to understand how an inverter works, it is
first necessary to understand how an induction
motor works.
An asynchronous induction motor works like a
transformer. When the stator (the fixed, outer
winding) is connected to a three phase power
source, a magnetic field which rotates at the
frequency of the supply is set up.

ECO REFERENCE MANUAL
This field crosses the air gap between the stator
and rotor and causes currents to flow in the rotor
windings. This produces a force (torque) on the
rotor as the current interacts with the changing
magnetic field, and the rotor turns.
If the windings are arranged in several pairs (or
poles), the frequency of the rotating field will be
less than the applied frequency (e.g. two pole =
50/60Hz = 3000/3600 rpm, but four pole =
50/60Hz = 1500/1800 rpm).
Torque
However, if the rotor runs at the same speed as
the rotating field, there will be no changing
magnetic field, and therefore no torque.
Since rotor currents must be induced in order to
create output torque, the rotor always runs a little
slower than the rotating field. This difference in
speed is known as slip and is generally about 3%.

(maximum) torque

point
Torque Speed Characteristic of An Induction Motor
The speed of the motor depends on the applied
frequency, as well as the winding arrangement,
and to some extent on the load.
Therefore in order to control the motor speed it is
necessary to control the frequency of the supply.
If the frequency is reduced, the voltage must be
reduced, or the stator current and magnetic flux
will be too high and the motor’s magnetic field will
saturate. Hence the voltage must be controlled as
well.
Variable frequency
operation
Speed
Slip
If the frequency is increased above normal, more
voltage would normally be needed to maintain
maximum flux; this is not usually possible, so less
torque is available at high speed, (i.e. speeds
above the supply frequency).

Therefore in order to control the speed of a
standard AC motor, the applied frequency and
voltage must be controlled.
The use of a standard induction motor together
with a variable frequency speed controller allows
a cost effective speed control system to be built.

VARIABLE FREQUENCY INVERTER.
An electronic converter which converts Direct
Current (DC) to Alternating Current (AC) is known
as an inverter. Electronic speed controllers for AC
motors usually convert the AC supply to DC using
a rectifier, and then convert it back to a variable
frequency, variable voltage AC supply using an
inverter bridge. The connection between the
rectifier and inverter is called the DC link. The
block diagram of a speed controller (often called
an inverter) is shown below:

Page 12
ECO REFERENCE MANUAL
The three phase supply is fed into a full wave
rectifier which supplies the DC link capacitors.
The capacitors reduce the voltage ripple
(especially on single phase supplies) and supply
energy for short mains breaks. The voltage on
the capacitors is uncontrolled and depends on the
peak AC supply voltage.
MICROMASTER Eco &
MIDIMASTER Eco inverters are
available as three phase.
DIAGRAM AND
TEST RESULTS
The DC voltage is converted back to AC using
Pulse Width Modulation (PWM). The desired
waveform is built up by switching the output
transistors (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors;
IGBTs) on and off at a fixed frequency (the
switching frequency). By varying the on and off
time of the IGBTs the desired current can be
generated. The output voltage is still a series of
square wave pulses and the inductance of the
motor windings results in a sinusoidal motor
current. Pulse Width Modulation is shown in the
figure below.

CONTROL & REGULATION
The Eco range enables the following
improvements to sy stem control and regulation.
• Finer control of system functions as the Eco
accurately follows set point s.

Proportional, Integral, Derivative (PID) control
loop function.
• Reduced overshoot of pre-set parameters,
provides optimised levels of comfort.
• Automatic compensation for system
fluctuations - partially blocked filters.
NOISE
Noise reductions can be achieved by reduction in:
• Motor and fan rpm.
• Air flow velocity
• Balance dampers are set in a more open
position.
• Periodic on/off actions create a higher and
more irritating noise level than continuous
running

WEAR & TEAR
Eco inverters can make possible greatly reduced
maintenance and running costs:
• Fewer stop/start sequences means that
mechanical stresses are reduced.
• Equipment life is extended, and a smaller
number of components require reduced
degree of maintenance
• Reduced airflow means reduced cleaning.
• Reduction in replacement of maintenance
consumables such as fan belts, motor
bearings and fan bearings.

EQUIPMENT RATIONALISATION
Using Eco inverters can significantly reduce the
number of system components and often enable
valuable space to become available:
• Mechanical components which may be
eliminated include dampers, actuators, (and
outstations by using serial communication).
• Reductions in the use of electrical contactors,
control and overload relays, terminals and PID
modules can be achieved. Also, control panel
complexity is reduced, as is wiring and labour
costs.

voltage (V)
frequency (Hz)
The Eco starts to analyse the power consumption
of the motor as soon as the motor has reached
setpoint speed (i.e. when acceleration is
complete).
It then begins to search for the optimum
efficiency (lowest power consumption) by slightly
lowering or raising the output voltage to the
motor.
For example, if the Eco detects that the power
consumption is increasing as it is increasing the
voltage to the motor, then the control strategy will
begin to decrease the output motor voltage in
search of the lowest power consumption level.
The converse of this will also apply, again to
automatically determine the lowest power
consumption level.
The Control Mode (P077=4) is set to Energy
Control Optimisation as the factory default.
The amount of additional energy saved using this
optimisation technique can vary considerably and
is dependent on motor loading, motor type and
duty cycle. Typical additional savings can be
between 2% and 5%.

8. Eco SELECTION CRITERIA - SIZE, TYPE ETC
Generally, drive selection is straightforward, as the motor rating is already known and the speed range
requirements are either pre-determined, or easily identified and accomplished. However, when a drive
system is selected from first principles, careful consideration may avoid problems in installation and
operation, and may also generate significant cost savings.
.
SC
OVERALL CONSIDERATIONS
• Make sure that the Current rating of the
inverter is compatible with the name plate
current rating of motor - power rating can be
used as a rough guide.
• Check that you have selected the correct
operating voltage and that the motor terminals
are configured correctly.
• Make sure that the speed range you require is
attainable. Operation above normal supply
frequency (50 or 60Hz) is usually only possible
at reduced power. Operation at low frequency
and high torque (not normally a characteristic
of fans and pumps) can cause the motor to
overheat unless provision is made for
additional cooling.
• Do you need to operate with cables longer
than 100m, or screened or armoured cables
longer than 50m ?. If so, it may be necessary
to de-rate the inverter, or fit a choke to
compensate for the cable capacitance. See
section 14 for motor cable length details.
• The Eco is only intended for use with
centrifugal pumps and fans see p 8-8 for
further information.
SUPPLY SIDE REQUIREMENTS
SUPPLY TOLERANCE
The inverters are designed to operate on a wide
range of supply voltages as follows:
208 - 240 V +/- 10%
380 - 460/480/500 V +/- 10%
525 - 575 V +/- 15%
Inverters will operate over a supply frequency of
47 - 63 Hz.
Many supplies vary outside these levels. For
example:
• Supply voltages at the end of long power lines
in remote areas can rise excessively in the
evening and weekends when large loads are
no longer present.
• Industries with locally controlled and
generated supplies can have poor voltage
regulation and control.
• Power systems in certain parts of the world
may not meet the inverter input voltage
tolerances.
In all installations, check that the supply will
remain within the voltage tolerances stated
above. Operation outside of the stated supply
levels may cause damage and give unreliable
operation.
To achieve maximum reliability and optimum
performance, the main power supply to the
inverter system must be suited to the inverter.
The following points should be considered:
8-1
Page 32
ECO REFERENCE MANUAL
SC
SUPPLY DISTURBANCE
Many supplies are well controlled and remain in
tolerance, but are affected by local disturbances.
These can cause faulty operation and damage to
inverters. In particular, check for:
• Power Factor Correction equipment.
Unsuppressed switching of capacitor banks
can produce very large voltage transients and
is a common cause of inverter damage.
• High power welding equipment, especially
resistance and RF welders.
• Other drives, semiconductor heater controllers
etc.
The inverter is designed to absorb a high level of
supply disturbance - for instance, voltage spikes
up to 2kV. However, the above equipment can
cause power supply disturbances in excess of
this. It will be necessary to suppress this
interference - preferably at source - or at least by
the installation of an input choke in the inverter
supply. EMC filters do not suppress disturbances
with this level of energy. Over-voltage protection
products such as metal oxide varistors should
also be considered in extreme cases.
Damage can also be caused by local supply
faults and the effects of electrical storms. In
areas where these are expected, similar
precautions are recommended.

UNGROUNDED SUPPLIES
Certain installations need to operate with supplies
that are isolated from the protective earth (IT
supply). This permits equipment to continue to
run following a line to earth fault. However,
MICROMASTER Eco and MIDIMASTER Eco are
designed to normally operate on grounded
supplies and are fitted with interference
suppression capacitors between the supply and
ground. Preventative measures (see below)
should be used on ungrounded supplies. Please
consult Siemens for further clarification.
LOW FREQUENCY HARMONICS
The inverter converts the AC supply to DC using
an uncontrolled diode rectifier bridge. The DC link
voltage is close to the peak AC supply voltage, so
the diodes only conduct for a short time at the
peak of the AC waveform.
EMC FILTER RESTRICTIONS FOR
ALL PRODUCTS
The input RFI suppression filters
on unearthed supplies since they are designed
for earthed supplies only. Many unearthed
supplies are only intended for industrial users
(particularly 500V ones), and EN61800-3 does
not impose any emissions limits in such
applications. Therefore a filter may not be
required in any case.
The EMC tests have been carried out according
to EN61800-3 on earthed supplies. The test
results will not be valid for unearthed supplies.
cannot
be used
SC
The current waveform therefore has a relatively
high RMS value as a high current flows from the
supply for a short time.
For typical harmonic details, refer to Section 15.
MICROMASTER Eco
MICROMASTER can be used on unearthed
supplies if connected through an isolating
transformer.
Alternatively they may also be connected directly
to the unearthed supply, but the inverter may then
shut down (F002) if an output earth fault
develops.
MIDIMASTER Eco
The 380/500V models are suitable for use on
unearthed supplies at a maximum switching
frequency of 2kHz (P076 = 6 or 7). This is to
prevent the input Y capacitors from overheating in
the event of an earth fault on the Eco output.
The MIDIMASTER Eco will continue to operate
normally under earth fault conditions at the
MIDIMASTER Eco input.
Earth fault monitoring on the input supply,
capable of detecting an earth fault on the motor
output, is recommended.

This means that the input current waveform
consists of a series of low frequency harmonics,
and this may in turn cause voltage harmonic
distortion, depending on the supply impedance.
Sometimes these harmonics need to be
assessed in order to ensure that certain levels
are not exceeded. Excessive harmonic levels
can cause high losses in transformers, and may
interfere with other equipment. In any case, the
rating and selection of cabling and protection
equipment must take into account these high
RMS levels. Some typical measured harmonic
levels are shown below.
Three Phase Supplies
Current
SC
In order to calculate the harmonics in a particular
supply system it is essential that the supply
impedance is known. This is usually stated in
terms of fault current levels, transformer size, and
installed impedance such as line inductors etc.
The addition of input line chokes reduces the
level of harmonic currents and also reduces the
overall RMS current as well as improving the
overall power factor.
Where supplies have very low impedance (such
as below 1%) an input inductor is recommended
in any case to limit peak currents in the drive.

MOTOR LIMITATIONS
The motor speed is determined mainly by the
applied frequency. The motor slows down a little
as the load increases and the slip increases. If
the load is too great the motor will exceed the
maximum torque and stall or ‘pull out’.
The standard induction motor is cooled by a built
in fan connected directly to the shaft that runs at
motor speed. This is designed to cool the motor
at full load and name plate rated speed. If a
motor runs at a lower frequency and at full torque
- that is high current not normally an operating
condition of pumps and fans - motor cooling may
Torque
be inadequate. Motor manufacturers generally
give the necessary de-rating information, but a
typical de-rating curve would limit output torque at
zero frequency rising to full output torque
capability at 50% of nameplate rated speed (see
diagram). Ensure that these limitations are not
exceeded for long term operation.
Use the i2t function to help protect the motor
(See P074 in parameter descriptions ) or consider
using a motor with built in thermal protection such
as a thermistor (PTC).

ECO REFERENCE MANUAL
High speed operation of standard motors is
usually limited to twice the normal operating
speed (i.e. up to 6000 or 7200 rpm) of a two pole
motor because of bearing limitations. However,
because the motor magnetic flux level will reduce
above base speed (because the output voltage is
limited to approximately the input voltage) the
maximum torque will also fall in inverse
proportion to the speed above base speed.
It is not usually possible to operate a fan or pump
motor over its base speed since the torque
(current) requirement will increase proportionally
to the square of the speed.
SC
However, if a motor is connected as a low voltage
motor (delta connected motor windings) and
operated on a higher voltage inverter, full torque
may be obtained up to 1.7 times base frequency
if the inverter is correctly set up. Obtain the
correct voltage/frequency curve by setting the
motor parameters as follows:

LOAD CONSIDERATIONS
The inverter and motor requirements are
determined by the speed range and torque
requirements of the load. The relationship
between speed and torque is different for
different loads. Many loads can be considered to
be constant torque loads. That is, the torque
remains the same over the operating speed
range. Typical constant torque loads are
compressors, positive displacement pumps and
conveyors.
These constant torque loads are generally not
suited to the MICROMASTER Eco since it is
rated only for variable torque loads such as
pumps and fans.

ECO REFERENCE MANUAL
VARIABLE TORQUE APPLICATIONS
SC
Some loads have a Variable Torque
characteristic, that is, the torque increases with
the speed. Typical variable torque loads are
centrifugal pumps and fans. In these applications
the load is proportional to the square of the
speed, and therefore the power is proportional to
the cube of the speed. This means that at
reduced speeds there is a great reduction in
power and therefore energy saving - a major
advantage of variable speed drives applied to
pumps and fans. For example, a 10% reduction
in speed will give a theoretical 35% reduction on
power!
Because the power is greatly reduced, the
voltage applied to the motor can also be reduced
and additional energy saving achieved. A
‘quadratic’ or ‘pump and fan’ voltage to frequency
relationship is a factory default within the
MICROMASTER Eco and MIDIMASTER Eco.
It is not generally useful to run pumps or fans
above base speed as the power will rise
excessively and the fan or pump may become
inefficient or damaged.
MIDIMASTER Eco are therefore variable torque
rated for pump and fan operation can give an
additional capital cost saving in these
applications.

OTHER LOADS
Many other loads have non linear or varying
torque relationships. The torque requirement of
the load should be understood before the inverter
and motor is selected.
By comparing the load/speed requirement with
the motor capability, the correct motor can be
selected. Remember a different pole pair

arrangement (nameplate rated speed) may give a
better match to the load needs.
Starting torque may need special consideration. If
a high starting torque is required this must be
considered during rating.
This type of starting duty is generally not
characteristic of fan and pump applications.

ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS
SC
The inverter is designed for operation in an HVAC
environment. However there are certain
limitations which must be considered; the
following check list should help:
• Check that the airflow through the inverter will
not be blocked by wiring etc. Ensure adequate
clearance between cable trunking and the top
and bottom ventilation ducts of the inverter.
• Make sure the temperature of the air does not
exceed 50°C MICROMASTER Eco or 40°C
MIDIMASTER Eco. Remember to allow for
any temperature rise inside the enclosure or
cubicle.
• The inverters are available with protection
levels of IP20 (MICROMASTER Eco), IP21 or
IP56 (MIDIMASTER Eco).
IP20 and IP21 units need additional protection
against dust, dirt, and water.
• The inverter is designed for fixed installation
and is not designed to withstand excessive
shock and vibration.
• The inverter will be damaged by corrosive
atmospheres.
• Protect the unit from dust; dust can build up
inside the unit, damage the fans, and prevent
proper cooling. Conductive dust, such as
metal dust, will damage the unit.
• Give due consideration to Electromagnetic
Compatibility (EMC), such as:
1. The inverter should be protected from the
effects of equipment such as Power Factor
Correction equipment, Resistance Welding
Equipment etc.
2. The inverter should be well grounded.
3. How will the inverter and any control
equipment (contactors, PLCs, relays
sensors etc.) interact? Contactor coils
should be suppressed using an R-C
module. BMS units actuators and sensors
should be well earthed.
IP Protection
The IP number
defines the level of
Ingress Protection (IP)
for the particular
inverter.
MICROMASTER Eco
models have an IP
rating of IP20 (US
equivalent NEMA 1).
MIDIMASTER Eco

POWER AND MOTOR CONNECTIONS
- MIDIMASTER Eco RANGE
1. Gain access to power and motor terminals
by removing the front cover from the inverter
(lower-front cover only, for frame size 7).
2. Make sure that the power source supplies
the correct voltage and has the necessary
current supply capacity. Make sure that the
appropriate circuit-breaker (or fuses) with the
specified current rating are connected
between the power supply and inverter
(Refer to Table of recommended fuses and
ratings on page 10-7).
3. Feed the cables through the correct glands
in the base of the inverter. Secure the cable
glands to the inverter and connect the leads
to the power and motor terminals.
4. Connect the power input leads to the power
terminals L1, L2, L3 (3 phase) and earth (PE)
using a 4-core cable and lugs to suit the cable
size.
5. Use a 4-core cable and suitable lugs to
connect the motor leads to the motor
terminals U, V, W and earth (PE).
6. Tighten all the power and motor terminals:
Frame size 4 and 5: Tighten up each of the
power and motor terminal screws to 1.1 Nm.
Frame size 6: tighten up each of the power
and motor terminal Allen-screws to 3.0 Nm.
Frame size 7: Tighten up each of the M12
power and motor terminal nuts to 30 Nm.
Make sure that all the leads are
connected correctly and the
equipment is properly earthed.
The total length of the motor cable(s)
should generally not exceed 100m. If
a screened motor cable is used or if
the cable channel is well grounded,
the maximum length should generally
not exceed 50m. Cable lengths
above 200m are possible by derating
the invertor’s output current or by
using additional output reactors
(chokes). Refer to table of maximum
recommended motor cable lengthsSection 13 and output reactor
selection-Section 15.

ratio between the rated motor speeds will be
consistent over the full range.
If motor sizes vary to any great extent, this could
cause problems at start-up and at low rpm. This is
because smaller motors need a higher voltage
during start-up, as they have a higher resistance
value in the stator.
Additional motor protection (e.g. thermistors in
every motor or individual thermal overload relays)
is essential in systems with parallel motor
operation. This is because the inverter’s internal
thermal protection cannot be used, as output
current must be programmed to match the overall
motor current.
Total motor current consumption must not exceed
maximum rated output current.
Parameter P077 should be set to multi motor
mode.
The MICROMASTER Eco & MIDIMASTER Eco
range can be used to control all types of threephase asynchronous squirrel cage motors.
The voltage and connection method should be
taken from the motor nameplate, but as a general

The MICROMASTER Eco & MIDIMASTER Eco

MOTOR OVERLOAD PROTECTION
When operated below rated speed, the cooling
effect of fans fitted to the motor shaft is reduced,
so that most motors require de-rating for
continuous operation at low frequencies.
However, variable torque loads such as pumps
and fans are generally not heavily loaded at low
speeds. To provide motors with additional
protection against overheating, a PTC (thermistor)
temperature sensor may be fitted to the motor and
connected to the inverter control terminals. Note:
to enable the motor overload protection trip
function, see parameter P087=1.

SELECT BETWEEN POTENTIOMETER CONTROL AND PID REGULATION
In a ventilation system, the duct pressure differential is to be adjustable by means of a
potentiometer. Output signals from the pressure transducer are supplied to the Eco, the
selected pressure differential must be kept constant , and the internal PID regulator is used to
achieve this. Alternatively, selection can be made at the motor control panel for closed loop PID
regulation.

All electronic and electrical equipment generate
unwanted signals. These signals can be emitted
from the product either via cables that are
connected to the product (Input, output, control
signals etc.) or via electromagnetic radiation ‘radio
transmission’. These signals can be received by
other products (via the same routes) and can
interfere with the correct operation of the product.

Micromaster
Control
Supply
Any particular product gives out a certain level of
emissions, and has a certain level of immunity to
incoming signals from other products. If the
immunity of all products is higher than their
emissions, there is no problem. If the immunity
is lower, severe problems can occur, causing
quality problems, damage, or in extreme cases
injury.
Electro-magnetic Compatibility (EMC)
concerns how equipment works together;
Electro-magnetic Interference (EMI) refers to
the unwanted signals themselves.
Output
Emissions
Output
Immunity to
Emissions
EMI has become a more serious problem
recently as more electronic systems (which
may prove to have low immunity) are used in
industrial applications, and as power electronic
products such as drives, generate high
frequency signals which can produce high
levels of interference.
ELECTRO-MAGNETIC
COMPATIBILITY (EMC)
All manufacturers/assemblers of electrical
apparatus which performs a complete intrinsic
function which is placed on the European
market as a single unit intended for the end
user must comply w i th the EMC directive
EEC/89/336 after January 1996. There are
three ways by which the
manufacturer/assembler can demonstrate
compliance:
Self-Certification
This is a manufacturer's declaration that the
European standards applicable to the electrical
environment for which the apparatus is
intended have been met. Only standards
which have been officially published in the
Official Journal of the European Community
can be cited in the manufacturer's declaration.
•Technical Construction File
A technical construction file can be
prepared for the apparatus describing its
EMC characteristics. This file must be
approved by a ‘Competent Body’ appointed
by the appropriate European government
organisation. This approach allows the use
of standards which are still in preparation.
•EC Type-Examination Certificate
This approach is only applicable to radio
communication transmitting apparatus.
The MICROMASTER Eco and MIDIMASTER
Eco units do not have an intrinsic function until
connected with other components (e.g. a
motor). Therefore, the basic units are not
allowed to be CE marked for compliance with
the EMC directive. However, full details are
provided of the EMC performance
characteristics of the products when they are
installed in accordance with the wiring
recommendations in the Wiring Guidelines at
the end of this section.

UNRESTRICTED DISTRIBUTION
When the product is available to the general public, an EC declaration of conformity and CE mark are
required. (This is not applicable to the MICROMASTER Eco range which is always supplied via
restricted distribution channels).
RESTRICTED DISTRIBUTION
When the product is not available to the general public (expert use only) EC declaration of conformity
and CE mark are not required. However, components must be designed in such a way that they will not
cause EMC disturbances when properly installed.
The inverters are designed to operate in an
environment where a high level of ElectroMagnetic Interference (EMI) can be expected.
Usually, good installation practices will ensure
safe and trouble-free operation. If there are
any problems, the following guidelines may
prove useful. In particular, grounding of the
system at the inverter, as described below,
may prove effective. The figures at the end of
this section illustrate how filters should be
installed and connected.
• Ensure that all equipment in the cubicle is
well earthed using short, thick earthing
cable connected to a common star point or
busbar. It is particularly important that any
control equipment (such as a BMS), that is
connected to the inverter is also connected
to the same earth or star point as the
inverter via a short, thick link. Flat
conductors (e.g. braids or metal brackets)
are preferred as they have lower impedance
at high frequencies.
Connect the return earth from motors
controlled by the inverter directly to the
earth connection (PE) on the associated
inverter.
• On the MIDIMASTER Eco, use saw-tooth
washers when mounting the inverter and
ensure that a good electrical connection is
made between the heatsink and the back
panel, removing paint if necessary to
expose bare metal.
• Wherever possible, use screened leads for
connections to the control circuitry.
Terminate both the ends of the cable neatly,
ensuring that unscreened wires are as short
as possible. Use cable glands whenever
possible and earth both ends of the screen
on the control cable.
• Separate the control cables from the power
connections as much as possible, using
separate trunking, etc. If control and power
cables need to cross, arrange the cables so
that they cross at 90° if possible.
• Ensure that contactors in the cubicle are
suppressed, either with R-C suppressors for
AC contactors or ‘flywheel’ diodes for DC
contactors, fitted to the coils. Varistor
suppressors are also effective. This is
particularly important if the contactors are
controlled from the output relay on the
inverter.
• Use screened or armoured cables for the
motor connections and ground the screen
at both ends via the cable glands.
• If the drive is to be operated in an Electromagnetic noise-sensitive environment, the
RFI filter should be used to reduce the
conducted and radiated interference from
the inverter. For optimum performance,
there should be a good conductive bond
between filter and metal mounting plate.
On no account must safety regulations be
compromised when installing inverters!

2. Cover the loose strands of the cable
screen with either a short length of heat
shrink sleeve or some insulation tape.
This is to ensure that the screen is tidy and
loose strands will not cause a nuisance.
3. Fit the filter to the studs provided in the
IP56 case and bolt down.
4. Screw the three power cables and the
earth connection into the supply input
terminals (L1, L2, L3 and E) of the inverter.
The screen over the cable that leaves the filter
is not used in this type of installation. It is only
required if the filter is to be fitted to an IP21
rated inverter as an external filter.

PARAMETER TYPES
There are three types of parameters:
True value parameters.
•
For example, setting parameter P003 rampdown time to 10 seconds tells the Eco to take
10 seconds to slow the motor from its normal
operating speed to stopped.
Limited range parameters
•
The values themselves are not relevant and
only represent the function required. For
example:
1. Parameter P199 can only be set to 0 or 1.
2. setting the value to 0 tells the Eco to give
access to the basic parameters only.
3. setting the value to 1 gives access to the
expert parameters.
