Table 1: The safety symbols

The safety symbol Description

WARNING!

CAUTION!

HOT SURFACE!

2.2 WARNING

WARNING!

Do not touch the components of the power unit when the drive is connected to
mains. The components are live when the drive is connected to mains. A contact
with this voltage is very dangerous.
WARNING!

Do not touch the motor cable terminals U, V, W, the brake resistor terminals or the

SAFETY VACON · 13

WARNING!

Before you do electrical work, make sure that there is no voltage in the
components of the drive.
WARNING!

To do work on the terminal connections of the drive, disconnect the drive from
mains and make sure that the motor has stopped. Wait 5 minutes before you open
the cover of the drive. Then use a measuring device to make sure that there is no
voltage. The terminal connections and the components of the drive are live 5
minutes after it is disconnected from mains and the motor has stopped.
WARNING!

Before you connect the drive to mains, make sure that the front cover and the cable
cover of the drive are closed. The connections of the AC drive are live when the
drive is connected to mains.
WARNING!

Disconnect the motor from the drive if an accidental start can be dangerous. When
there is a power-up, a power break or a fault reset, the motor starts immediately if
the start signal is active, unless the pulse control for Start/Stop logic is selected. If
the parameters, the applications or the software change, the I/O functions
(including the start inputs) can change.
WARNING!

Wear protective gloves when you do mounting, cabling or maintenance operations.


There can be sharp edges in the AC drive that can cause cuts.

2.3 CAUTION

CAUTION!

Do not move the AC drive. Use a fixed installation to prevent damage to the drive.
CAUTION!

Do not make measurements when the AC drive is connected to mains. It can cause
damage to the drive.
CAUTION!

Make sure that there is reinforced protective ground connection. It is mandatory,


because the touch current of the AC drives is more than 3.5 mA AC (refer to EN
61800-5-1). See chapter 2.4 Grounding and earth fault protection.
CAUTION!

Do not use spare parts that are not from the manufacturer. Using other spare parts
can cause damage to the drive.

VACON · 14 SAFETY

CAUTION!

Do not touch the components on the circuit boards. Static voltage can cause
damage to these components.
CAUTION!

Make sure that the EMC level of the AC drive is correct for your mains. See chapter
8.5 Installation in an IT system. An incorrect EMC level can cause damage to the
drive.
CAUTION!

Prevent radio interference. The AC drive can cause radio interference in a domestic
environment.
NOTE!

If you activate the autoreset function, the motor starts automatically after an
automatic fault reset. See the Application Manual.
NOTE!

If you use the AC drive as a part of a machine, the machine manufacturer must
supply a mains disconnection device (refer to EN 60204-1).

2.4 GROUNDING AND EARTH FAULT PROTECTION

CAUTION!

The AC drive must always be grounded with a grounding conductor that is


connected to the grounding terminal that is identified with the symbol . Not using
a grounding conductor can cause damage to the drive.
The touch current of the drive is more than 3.5 mA AC. The standard EN 61800-5-1 tells that
1 or more of these conditions for the protective circuit must be true.

The connection must be fixed.


a) The protective grounding conductor must have a cross-sectional area of minimum 10
mm2 Cu or 16 mm2 Al. OR
b) There must be an automatic disconnection of the mains, if the protective grounding
conductor breaks. See chapter 5 Power cabling. OR
c) There must be a terminal for a second protective grounding conductor in the same
cross-sectional area as the first protective grounding conductor.

Table 2: Protective grounding conductor cross-section

Cross-sectional area of the phase conductors (S) The minimum cross-sectional area of the protective
[mm2] grounding conductor in question [mm2]

S ≤ 16 S

16 < S ≤ 35 16

35 < S S/2

The values of the table are valid only if the protective grounding conductor is made of the
same metal as the phase conductors. If this is not so, the cross-sectional area of the
protective grounding conductor must be determined in a manner that produces a
conductance equivalent to that which results from the application of this table.
The cross-sectional area of each protective grounding conductor that is not a part of the
mains cable or the cable enclosure, must be a minimum of:

• 2.5 mm2 if there is mechanical protection, and


• 4 mm2 if there is not mechanical protection. If you have cord-connected equipment,
make sure that the protective grounding conductor in the cord is the last conductor to be
interrupted, if the strain-relief mechanism breaks.
Obey the local regulations on the minimum size of the protective grounding conductor.

NOTE!

Because there are high capacitive currents in the AC drive, it is possible that the
fault current protective switches do not operate correctly.
CAUTION!

Do not do voltage withstand tests on the AC drive. The manufacturer has already
done the tests. Doing voltage withstand tests can cause damage to the drive.

2.5 ELECTRO-MAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY (EMC)


The drive must obey the standard IEC 61000-3-12. To obey it, the short-circuit power SSC
must be a minimum of 120 RSCE at the interface point between your mains and the public
mains. Make sure that you connect the drive and the motor to mains with a short-circuit
power SSC that is a minimum of 120 RSCE. If necessary, contact your mains operator.

2.6 USING AN RCD OR AN RCM DEVICE


The drive can cause a current in the protective grounding conductor. You can use a residual
current-operated protective (RCD) device, or a residual current-operated monitoring (RCM)
device to give protection against a direct or an indirect contact. Use a type B RCD or RCM
device on the mains side of the drive.

4.1 GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT MOUNTING
Install the AC drive in vertical or horizontal position on the wall. If you install the drive in a
horizontal position, there is no protection against drops of water that fall vertically.
You can also install the AC drive into the cabinet wall with a flange mounting option (through-
hole mounting). With the flange mounting, the enclosure class of the power unit is IP54 (UL
Type 12) and the enclosure class of the control unit is IP21 (UL Type 1).
Attach the AC drive with the screws and other components that you received in the delivery.
Make sure that there is sufficiently free space around the AC drive for cooling, see 4.5
Cooling. Also make sure that the mounting surface is sufficiently flat.
For the dimensions of the wall-mounted and flange-mounted Vacon NX AC drives, see the
chapters below.
The sizes FR10 to FR11 are standalone AC drives. The enclosures have fixing holes. For
dimensions, see Chapter 4.4.1 Standalone (FR10 and FR11).

4.5 COOLING
The AC drive produces heat in operation. The fan moves air and decreases the temperature
of the drive. Make sure that there is sufficiently free space around the drive. Some free space
is also necessary for maintenance.
If many AC drives are installed above each other, the necessary free space is C + D (see Fig.
15 Installation space). You must also make sure that the outlet air from the lower drive goes
to a different direction than the air intake of the top drive.
Make sure that the temperature of the cooling air does not go above the maximum ambient
operating temperature or below the minimum ambient operating temperature of the drive.

5.1 CABLE CONNECTIONS
The mains cables are connected to terminals L1, L2 and L3. The motor cables are connected
to terminals U, V and W.
To obey the EMC levels, use a cable entry gland when you install the motor cable at the two
ends. For cable selections in different EMC levels, see Table 23.

Use cables with a minimum heat resistance of +70 °C (158 °F). In the selection of the cables
and the fuses, refer to the nominal output current of the drive. You can find the nominal
output current on the nameplate.
We recommend that you select the cables and the fuses to agree with the output current
because the input current of the AC drive is almost the same as the output current.
For information on how to make the cable installation to obey the UL standards, see Chapter
5.2 UL standards on cabling.
Chapter 5.3 Cable dimensioning and selection shows the minimum dimensions of the Cu-
cables and the related fuse sizes.
If the motor temperature protection of the drive (see Vacon All in One Application Manual) is
used as an overload protection, select the cable to agree with the protection. If 3 or more

cables are used in parallel for larger AC drives, you must use a separate overload protection
for each cable.
These instructions are valid only for processes that have 1 motor and 1 cable connection
from the AC drive to the motor. In other conditions, speak to the manufacturer to get more
information.

mains voltage. We recommend an NKCABLES/MCMK cable. See Fig. 18.
3. A symmetrical power cable with a compact low-impedance shield. A cable for the
specified mains voltage. We recommend an NKCABLES /MCCMK, SAB/ÖZCUY-J or
equivalent cable. See Fig. 18. * = For the EMC levels C1 and C2, it is necessary to have a
360º grounding of the shield with cable glands in the motor end.
4. A screened cable with a compact low-impedance shield, for example an NKCABLES/
JAMAK, or an SAB/ÖZCuY-O cable.
For the definitions of EMC protection levels, see Chapter 9.3 The compliance with the product
standard IEC/EN 61800-3 + A1.

If you installed a safety switch, make sure that the EMC protection continues from the start
of the cables until their ends.

5.2 UL STANDARDS ON CABLING


To obey the UL (Underwriters Laboratories) regulations, use a UL-approved copper wire with
a minimum heat resistance of 60 or 75 °C (140 or 167 °F). To obey the standards, use cables
with +90 °C (194 °F) heat resistance for sizes 0170 2 and 0168 5 (FR8), and 0261 2, 0261 5,
0300 2 and 0300 5 (FR9).
Use Class 1 wire only.
When the drive has Class T and J fuses, you can use it on a circuit that gives a maximum of
100 000 rms symmetrical amperes, and a maximum of 600 V.
The integral solid state short circuit protection does not give a branch circuit protection.
Obey the National Electric Code and any additional local codes to get the branch circuit
protection. Only fuses give the branch circuit protection.
For the tightening torques of the terminals, see Table 35 The tightening torques of the
terminals and Table 38 Tightening torques of the terminals.

5.3 CABLE DIMENSIONING AND SELECTION


We recommend the fuse type gG/gL (IEC 60269-1). To make a selection of the fuse voltage
rating, refer to the mains. Do not use larger fuses than what is recommended.
Make sure that the operation time of the fuse is less than 0.4 seconds. The operation time
agrees with the fuse type and the impedance of the supply circuit. For more information on
faster fuses, speak to the manufacturer. The manufacturer can also recommend some aR
(UL recognised, IEC 60269-4) and gS (IEC 60269-4) fuse ranges.
The tables show the typical sizes and types of cables that you can use with the AC drive. In
the selection of cables, refer to local regulations, cable installation conditions and cable
specification.

The dimensions of the cables must agree with the requirements of the standard
IEC60364-5-52.
• The cables must be PVC-isolated.
• The maximum ambient temperature is +30 °C (86 °F).
• The maximum temperature of the cable surface is +70 °C (158 °F).
• Use only cables with a concentric copper shield.
• The maximum number of parallel cables is 9.
When you use parallel cables, make sure that you obey the requirements of the cross-
sectional area and the maximum number of cables.
For important information on the requirements of the grounding conductor, see chapter 2.4
Grounding and earth fault protection.
For the correction factors for each temperature, see the standard IEC60364-5-52.

5.5 BRAKE RESISTOR CABLES


Vacon® NXS and NXP AC drives have terminals for the DC supply and an optional external
brake resistor. These terminals are identified with B–, B+/R+ and R–. The DC bus connection
is made to terminals B– and B+ and the brake resistor connection to R+ and R–. You can find
the dimensions that we recommend for the brake resistor cables in the tables in Chapter 5.3
Cable dimensioning and selection.

CAUTION!

If you use a multi-conductor cable, 1 of the conductors of the brake resistor cable
stays unconnected. Cut off the remaining conductor to prevent an accidental
contact with a conducting component.
See Chapter 9.1.5 Brake resistor ratings.

NOTE!

The frames FR8 and larger have the DC connection as optional.


NOTE!

If it is necessary to connect an external brake resistor, see Brake Resistor Manual.

5.6 PREPARING FOR THE CABLE INSTALLATION

• Before you start, make sure that none of the components of the AC drive is live. Read
carefully the warnings in Chapter 2 Safety.
• Make sure that the motor cables are sufficiently far from other cables.
• The motor cables must go across other cables at an angle of 90°.
• If it is possible, do not put the motor cables in long parallel lines with other cables.
• If the motor cables are in parallel with other cables, obey the minimum distances (see
Table 32 The minimum distances between cables).
• The distances are also valid between the motor cables and the signal cables of other
systems.
• The maximum lengths of shielded motor cables are 300 m (984 ft) (AC drives with power
greater than 1.5 kW or 2 HP), and 100 m (328 ft) (AC drives with power from 0.75 to 1.5
kW or 1 to 2 HP). If the used motor cables are longer than these, speak to the factory to
get more information.
NOTE!

Each parallel cable adds to the total length.


NOTE!

If you use long motor cables (max. 100 m or 328 ft) together with small drives
(≤1.5 kW or ≤2.01 HP), the capacitive current in the motor cable can increase
the measured motor current compared to the actual motor current. Think this
when you set up the motor stall protection functions.
• If the cable insulation checks are necessary, see Chapter 8.4 Measuring the cable and
motor insulation for instructions.

7.9.7.2 Fan control (P6.7.2)
Use this function to control the cooling fan of the AC drive. You have 4 options to select from:

• Continuous (default setting). The fan is always on when the power is on.
• Temperature. The fan starts automatically when the heat sink temperature goes to 60 °C
(140 °F) or when the AC drive operates.
The fan stops about a minute after one of these:
• the heat sink temperature falls to 55 °C (131 °F)
• the AC drive stops
• the Fan control value is changed from Continuous to Temperature
• First start. When power is on, the fan is in the stop state. When the AC drive gets the first
start command, the fan starts.
• Calc temp. The fan function agrees to the calculated IGBT temperature:
• If the IGBT temperature is more than 40 °C (104 °F), the fan starts.
• If the IGBT temperature is below 30°C (86 °F), the fan stops.
NOTE!

As the default temperature at power-up is 25 °C (77 °F), the fan does not
start immediately.

Use this function to change the timeout of the HMI acknowledgement time. Use this when
there is more delay in the RS-232 transmission, for example, when modems are used for
communication over longer distances.
NOTE!

Do not change the default values of parameters 6.7.3 and 6.7.4 (200 and 5) if the AC
drive is connected to the PC with a cable. If the AC drive is connected to the PC with
a modem and the messages are transferred with a delay, set the values for
parameter 6.7.3 to agree these delays. For example, if the transfer delay between
the AC drive and the PC is 600 ms, make these settings:

Example:
• Set the value of parameter 6.7.3 to 1200 ms (2 x 600, sending delay + receiving
delay)
• Set the [Misc]-part of the file NCDrive.ini to agree with the settings:
• Retries = 5
• AckTimeOut = 1200
• TimeOut = 6000
Do not use intervals shorter than the AckTimeOut-time in the NC-Drive monitoring.

the size of the drive.
2 Connect the DC-power supply to the B+/B-
terminals (DC+ to B+, DC- to B-) of the DC-link or
directly to the capacitor terminals. In the NX AC
drives with no B+/B- terminals (FR8/FR9), connect
the DC-supply between 2 input phases (L1 and L2).
3 In drives FR8 to FR11: To make sure that the
capacitors are fully charged, remove the fuses of
the cooling fan. If necessary, speak to the factory to
get more instructions.
4 Set the DC-voltage to the nominal DC-voltage level
of the AC drive (1.35*Un AC) and give the AC drive
power for 1 hour, at minimum.
If the AC drive was in store for much longer than 12 months and the capacitors were not
charged, speak to the factory to get instructions before you connect the power.

NOTE!

The currents in given ambient temperatures (in 9.2 Vacon® NXS and NXP -
technical data) are achieved only when the switching frequency is the same or
smaller than the factory default.
The currents for FR10 to FR11 are valid at an ambient temperature of 40°C (104 °F) (except
for 0416 6 and 0590 6: currents are valid at an ambient temperature of 35°C (95 °F)).

9.1.4 OVERLOAD CAPABILITY


The low overload means that if 110% of the continuous current (IL) is necessary for 1 minute
each 10 minutes, the remaining 9 minutes must be approximately 98% of IL or less. This is to
make sure that the output current is not more than IL during the duty cycle.

The category changes when these properties in the AC drive change:

• the level of electromagnetic disturbances


• the requirements of a power system network
• the installation environment (see 9.3.1 Environment definitions in product standard IEC/EN
61800-3 + A1).
The Type designation code tells which category requirement your AC drive obeys.
All Vacon NX AC drives obey all EMC immunity requirements (standard IEC/EN 61800-3 +
A1).

CATEGORY C1

Available for 380-500 V, FR4 to FR6, IP54 (UL Type 12).


The AC drives in category C1 have the best EMC protection. These AC drives have the
nominal voltage of less than 1000 V. They are used in the 1st environment.

NOTE!

If the protection class of the AC drive is IP21 (UL Type 1), only the conducted
emissions are in the requirements of category C1.

CATEGORY C2

Available for 380-500 V, FR4 to FR9 and 208-240 V, FR4 to FR9.


The category C2 includes AC drives in fixed installations. These AC drives have the nominal
voltage of less than 1000 V. The category C2 AC drives can be used in the 1st and the 2nd
environment.

TECHNICAL DATA FOR NXS AND NXP VACON · 147

The category C3 includes AC drives that have the nominal voltage of less than 1000 V. These
AC drives are used in the 2nd environment only.

CATEGORY C4

Available for: All products.


These AC drives obey the standard IEC/EN 61800-3 + A1 if they are used in IT systems. In IT
systems, the networks are isolated from ground, or connected to ground through high
impedance to decrease the leakage current.

NOTE!

If the AC drives are used with other supplies, they do not obey the EMC
requirements.
To change the EMC protection category of your Vacon NX AC drive from C2 or C3 to C4, see
the instructions in Chapter 8.5 Installation in an IT system.

NO EMC EMISSION PROTECTION

In IP00.
The AC drives of this category do not give EMC emission protection. These drives are
installed in enclosures.

NOTE!

An external EMC filter is usually necessary to obey the EMC emission


requirements.
WARNING!

In a domestic environment this product can cause radio interference. If necessary,


do the sufficient steps.

VACON · 148 FAULT TRACING

10 FAULT TRACING
When the control diagnostics of the AC drive find an unusual condition in the operation of the
drive, the drive shows this information:

• This information shows on the display (see 7.7 Using the Active faults menu (M4)):
• the location indication F1
• the fault code (see Chapter 10.2 Fault codes)
• a short description of the fault
• the fault type symbol (see )
• the FAULT or ALARM symbol
• The red LED on the keypad starts to blink (only when a fault shows).
If many faults show at the same time, you can examine the list of active faults with the
Browser buttons.
In the NX AC drives, there are 4 different types of faults.

Table 61: Fault types

Fault type symbol Description

The type A fault (Alarm) tells you about unusual operation on the drive. It does not
A (Alarm)
stop the drive. The 'A fault' stays in the display for about 30 seconds.

The type 'F fault' stops the drive. To start the drive again, you must find a solution to
F (Fault)
the problem.

The type 'AR fault' stops the drive. The fault is reset automatically and the drive tries
AR (Fault Autoreset) to start the motor again. If it cannot the start the motor again, a fault trip (FT, see
below) shows.

If the drive cannot start the motor after an AR fault, an FT fault shows. The type 'FT
FT (Fault Trip)
fault' stops the AC drive.

The fault stays active until it is reset, see Chapter 10.1 Resetting a fault. The memory of active
faults can keep the maximum of 10 faults in the order in which they were shown.
Reset the fault with the Reset button on the keypad, or through the control terminal, fieldbus
or the PC tool. The faults stay in the Fault history where you can go and examine them. See
the different fault codes in Chapter 10.2 Fault codes.
Before you ask help from the distributor or the factory because of unusual operation,
prepare some data. Write down all the texts on the display, the fault code, the source
information, the Active Faults list and the Fault History.

10.1 RESETTING A FAULT


1 Remove the external Start signal before you reset
the fault to prevent that the drive starts again
without a note.
