NOTE

LEROY-SOMER reserves the right to modify the characteristics of its products at any time in order to incorporate the latest tech-
nological developments. The information contained in this document may be therefore changed without prior notice.

CAUTION

For the user’s safety, this VARMECA 20 must be connected to a proper earthing ( terminal).

If the accidental starting of the installation is likely to cause a risk to the personnel or to the machines being driven, it is necessary
to supply the equipment via a circuit-breaking device (power contactor) which can be controlled via an external safety system
(emergency stop, detection of errors on the installation).

VARMECA 20 is fitted with safety devices which in case of a fault may control its stopping and consequently the motor stopping.
This motor itself can be also subject to stopping as result of the mechanical blocking. Finally, the voltage fluctuations, in particular
the power cuts, may also cause the motor stopping.

The removal of the shutdown causes can lead to a restart which may be dangerous for certain machines or installations, espe-
cially for those which must comply with appendix 1 of decree no. 902.767 of 29th July, 1992 on safety.
In such cases, it is important for the user to take the appropriate precautions against the motor restarting after an unscheduled
motor stopping. The variable speed drive is designed to be able to supply with power a motor and the driven machine above
its rated speed.
If the motor or the machine are not mechanically designed to withstand such speeds, the user may be exposed to a serious
risk due to their mechanical deterioration. It is important for the user to check, before setting a high speed, if the installation can
withstand it.
The variable speed drive making the object of this manual is a component designed to be integrated into an installation or into an
electrical machine and it can under no circumstances be considered in any case a safety device. It is therefore the responsibility
of the machine manufacturer, the installation designer or the user to take the necessary precautions in order to ensure that the
installation complies with the standards in force and to provide any devices required to ensure the safety of the equipment and
personnel.

LEROY-SOMER declines all responsibility in case the above mentioned recommendations are not observed.

GENERAL INFORMATION

1 - GENERAL INFORMATION
• This manual describes the characteristics and the installation of VARMECA A20 and B20.
• VARMECA A20 and B20 are designed to operate in an industrial environment.
• If the run command has been enabled, the motor starts as soon as it is powered up.

1.1 - General principle

VARMECA - 20 is the physical association of a three phase asynchronous motor and of an integrated variable speed drive.
The motor allows all kinds of assembling arrangements (foot or flange) and can be combined with standard geared motors from
the LEROY-SOMER range.
In the standard version, the variable speed drive with integrated control does not require any connection other than the power
supply.
The options may be used to broaden the applications range of VARMECA - 20.
Due to the advanced technology of the IGBT power module, very high technology and reduced noise levels are possible.

1.5 - Radio-frequency interference

1.5.1 - General
The variable speed drives use high-speed switches (transistors, semi-conductors) which switch high voltages (around 550V for
the three phase variable speed drives) at high frequencies (several kHz). This provides better efficiency and a low motor noise.

Therefore, they generate radio-frequency signals which may disturb the operation of other equipment or the measurements taken
by the sensors:
- due to high-frequency leakage currents which escape to earth via the leakage capacity of the variable speed drive/motor cable
and that of the motor by the metal structures holding the motor.
- by R.F. signal conduction or feedback on the power supply cable: conducted emissions,
- by direct radiation near to the mains supply power cable or the variable speed drive/motor cable: radiated emissions.
These phenomena are of direct interest to the user.
The frequency range concerned (radio-frequency) does not disturb the energy distributor.

The conformity of the variable speed drive is assured only if the mechanical and electrical installation instructions
described in this manual are observed.

The second environment includes the industrial networks supplied with low voltage but which do not serve
buildings for domestic use. The operation of a variable speed drive without RFI filter in such an environment may
cause interference on certain electronic appliances located close to the variable speed drive whose level of immunity
might not be compatible with the industrial conditions. It is impossible to filter the disturbed element, add an external RFI
filter.

1.5.4 - Control cable immunity

The control cable immunity can be increased outside
VARMECA 20 by one of the following 2 methods:
• The use of a shielded twisted pair cable with a shielding
connected to earth on its circumference at less than 100 mm
of VARMECA 20.
• Running the cable through a ferrite ring at maximum 100
mm from VARMECA 20.

Note: Several control cables can pass through a single

ferrite.

1.5.5 - Control circuit immunity when

overvoltage occurs
The immunity to control circuit overvoltages or long cable
lengths and connection to the outside of a building.
The various variable speed drive input and output circuits are
in compliance with the EN61000-6-2 (1kV) standard on
overvoltages.

There are some exceptions, where the installation may be

exposed to overvoltage peaks which exceed the levels
determined by the standard. This may be the case of
lightning strikes or earth faults associated with long cable

GENERAL INFORMATION

1.6 - Definition of cables and protection devices

• It is the responsibility of the user to connect and provide protection for VARMECA 20 according to the legislation
and regulation in force in the country of use. This is particularly important as regards the size of the cables, the
type and the rating of fuses, the earth or ground connection, the powering down, the fault settlement, the insulation and
the protection against overcurrents.
• These tables are given for information only and must under no circumstances be used instead of the standards in force.
• If a circuit-breaker is used, this must be of the motor circuit-breaker type (curve D).
• The differential circuit-breaker must be of type B. A too high number of devices connected to a single differential circuit-
breaker may switch it on. It is important to make sure that the differential protects only VARMECA 20.
• Observe the sizes of the protection fuses.

• The variable speed drive contains capacitors which
remain loaded at a fatal voltage, even if the power supply
has been cut off.
• Wait 2 minutes after powering down the variable speed
drive before removing the protection devices.
• The variable speed drive must be protected against
overcharges and short-circuits.
• It is vital to comply with the rating of the protection
devices.
• Connection exclusively by copper conductor.
• Check to see if the voltage and the current of the
variable speed drive, the motor and the mains supply are
compatible.
• After the variable speed drive operation, the heater may
be very hot, therefore avoid touching it.

3.1 - Wiring precautions

• When VARMECA 20 is remotely controlled, avoid the
parallel routing of the power cables and of the control cables.
• All the remote control cables must be shielded and have a
section between 0.22 mm2 and 1 mm2. The shielding must
be connected to earth at both sides.

• VARMECA 20 has a positive logic configuration.

The use of a variable speed drive with a control
system having different control logic may cause an
accidental starting of the motor.
• In the variable speed drive the control circuits are
isolated from the power circuits by a simple insulation.
(CEI 664-1). The installer must ensure that the external
control circuits are isolated against any human contact.
• If the control circuits need to be connected to circuits
complying with the SELV safety requirements, an
additional insulation must be inserted in order to
maintain the SELV classification.

- Run the cables towards the cable gland with a curve radius
allowing it to avoid the water intrusion.
- Tighten well the cable gland.
