Safety information for users

2 Hardware description
2.1 Safety information for users
Handling of electro- VIPA modules make use of highly integrated components in MOS-
static sensitive modules Technology. These components are extremely sensitive to over-vol-
tages that can occur during electrostatic discharges. The following
symbol is attached to modules that can be destroyed by electrostatic
discharges.

The Symbol is located on the module, the module rack or on packing

material and it indicates the presence of electrostatic sensitive equip-
ment. It is possible that electrostatic sensitive equipment is destroyed
by energies and voltages that are far less than the human threshold
of perception. These voltages can occur where persons do not dis-
charge themselves before handling electrostatic sensitive modules
and they can damage components thereby, causing the module to
become inoperable or unusable. Modules that have been damaged
by electrostatic discharges can fail after a temperature change,
mechanical shock or changes in the electrical load. Only the conse-
quent implementation of protection devices and meticulous attention
to the applicable rules and regulations for handling the respective
equipment can prevent failures of electrostatic sensitive modules.

Shipping of modules Modules must be shipped in the original packing material.

Measurements and When you are conducting measurements on electrostatic sensitive

alterations on electro- modules you should take the following precautions:
static sensitive modules
n Floating instruments must be discharged before use.
n Instruments must be grounded.
Modifying electrostatic sensitive modules you should only use sol-
dering irons with grounded tips.

CAUTION!
Personnel and instruments should be grounded when
working on electrostatic sensitive modules.

Overview For the inclusion into your PLC system several HMI/SCADA project-
engineering platforms are at your disposal that has to be installed at
an external PC. Here you may create your project, where appropriate
simulate it and transfer it to the Touch Panel via a connection that
you’ve entered before. Via the at the Touch Panel pre-installed run-
time version of the HMI/SCADA project engineering platforms your
project is run able.
By using the according communication driver, the Touch Panel sup-
ports connecting options to the PLC via field bus and Ethernet.
During operation your operating device communicates with the
according PLC and reacts to the application courses in the PLC
according to the configured processes. Via dialogues configured
before, process values may be monitored graphically, altered and
evaluated.

Basic rules for the EMC-equitable assembly of installations

4 Installation Guidelines
4.1 Basic rules for the EMC-equitable assembly of installations
General The installation guidelines contain information about the interference
free deployment of a PLC system. There is the description of the
ways, interference may occur in your PLC, how you can make sure
the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), and how you manage the
isolation.

What does EMC mean? Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) means the ability of an electrical
device, to function error free in an electromagnetic environment
without being interfered respectively without interfering the environ-
ment.
The components of VIPA are developed for the deployment in indus-
trial environments and meets high demands on the EMC. Neverthe-
less you should project an EMC planning before installing the compo-
nents and take conceivable interference causes into account.

Possible interference Electromagnetic interferences may interfere your control via different
causes ways:
n Electromagnetic fields (RF coupling)
n Magnetic fields with power frequency
n Bus system
n Power supply
n Protected earth conductor
Depending on the spreading medium (lead bound or lead free) and
the distance to the interference cause, interferences to your control
occur by means of different coupling mechanisms.
There are:
n galvanic coupling
n capacitive coupling
n inductive coupling
n radiant coupling

 Installation Guidelines VIPA HMI
EMC-equitable assembly

Basic rules for EMC In the most times it is enough to take care of some elementary rules
to guarantee the EMC. Please regard the following basic rules when
installing your PLC.
n Take care of a correct area-wide grounding of the inactive metal
parts when installing your components.
– Install a central connection between the ground and the pro-
tected earth conductor system.
– Connect all inactive metal extensive and impedance-low.
– Please try not to use aluminium parts. Aluminium is easily oxi-
dizing and is therefore less suitable for grounding.
n When cabling, take care of the correct line routing.
– Organize your cabling in line groups (high voltage, current
supply, signal and data lines).
– Always lay your high voltage lines and signal respectively data
lines in separate channels or bundles.
– Route the signal and data lines as near as possible beside
ground areas (e.g. suspension bars, metal rails, tin cabinet).
n Proof the correct fixing of the lead isolation.
– Data lines must be laid isolated.
– Analog lines must be laid isolated. When transmitting signals
with small amplitudes the one sided laying of the isolation may
be favourable.
– Lay the line isolation extensively on an isolation/protected
earth conductor rail directly after the cabinet entry and fix the
isolation with cable clamps.
– Make sure that the isolation/protected earth conductor rail is
connected impedance-low with the cabinet.
– Use metallic or metallised plug cases for isolated data lines.
n In special use cases you should appoint special EMC actions.
– Consider to wire all inductivities with erase links.
– Please consider luminescent lamps can influence signal lines.
n Create a homogeneous reference potential and ground all elec-
trical operating supplies when possible.
– Please take care for the targeted employment of the grounding
actions. The grounding of the PLC serves for protection and
functionality activity.
– Connect installation parts and cabinets with your PLC in star
topology with the isolation/protected earth conductor system.
So you avoid ground loops.
– If there are potential differences between installation parts and
cabinets, lay sufficiently dimensioned potential compensation
lines.

4.2 EMC-equitable assembly

Mostly, measures for suppressing interference voltages are only
taken, when the control is already in commission and the perfect
receive of a wanted signal is disturbed. Causes for such interferen-
ce's are in the most cases inadequate reference potentials, coming
from mistakes at the device assembly and installation.

Guidelines for assem- When assembling the devices, you have to ensure the large-surface
bling and grounding of grounding of the inactive metal parts. A correctly done grounding sup-
inactive metal parts ports an unambiguous reference potential for the control and reduces
the impact of coupled interferences.

42 HB160 | TP-ECO | 62H-MDC0 | GB | 16-02

VIPA HMI Installation Guidelines
EMC-equitable cabling

Grounding means the conducting connection of all inactive metal

parts. The sum of all interconnected inactive parts is called ground.
Inactive parts are all conductive parts electrically separated from all
active parts by means of a basic isolation and that may only get
voltage in case of an error.
The ground must not adopt dangerous contact voltage even in case
of an error. Thus you have to connect the ground with the protected
earth conductor. To avoid ground loops, local distant ground con-
structions (cubicles, construction and machine parts) have to be con-
nected with the protected earth conductor system in star-topology.

Please regard at grounding:

n Connect the inactive metal parts as carefully as the active ones.
n Take care of impedance-low metal-metal-connections, e.g. with
large-surface and well conductive contacts.
n If you include coated or anodized metal parts in the grounding,
you have to come through the isolating protection layers. For this
you may use special contact washers or remove the isolation
layer.
n Protect the connection points from corrosion, e.g. with grease.
n Moveable grounding parts (e.g. cubicle doors) have to be con-
nected via flexible ground strips. The ground strips should be
short and have a large surface, because the surface is decisive
for the diversion of high frequency interferences.

4.3 EMC-equitable cabling

Line routing Content of this section is the line routing of bus, signal and supply
lines. Object of the line routing is to suppress the "slurring" at parallel
lines.

Line routing inside and For an EMC-equitable routing of the lines it is convenient to divide the
outside of cubicles cables in different groups and install each group itself:
Group A
n screened bus and data lines
n screened analog lines
n unshielded lines for direct voltage £60V
n unshielded lines for alternating voltage £25V
n Coaxial cables for monitors
Group B
n unshielded lines for direct voltage >60V and £400V
n unshielded lines for alternating voltage >25V and £400V
Group C
n unshielded lines for direct and alternating voltage >400V
Group D
n Lines for H1 respectively TCP/IP

Combination of groups Following the table you may see the conditions for the cabling of the
line groups by combining the single groups:

Line routing outside of Wherever possible, exterior cabling should be installed on metallic
buildings cable trays. A galvanic connection must be provided for joints
between cable trays. You must abide by the applicable lightning pro-
tection and grounding regulations when installing exterior cables.

Lightning protection
CAUTION!
Where cables and signal lines for PLC equipment are
installed outside of buildings, the conditions for internal
and external lightning protection must be satisfied.
– Exterior lines should either be installed in metallic con-
duit pipes that is grounded on both ends or in steel-
reinforced concrete cable trunks with continuously con-
nected reinforcing.
– Signal lines should be protected against overvoltage by
varistors or by lightning arrester filled with rare gas.
– Install these protective elements at the location where
the cables enter the building.

Any lightning protection system must be based on an indi-

vidual assessment of the entire plant. For questions
please contact VIPA GmbH.

EMC-equitable cabling

Equipotential bonding Potential differences can occur between different sections when con-
trollers and peripheral equipment are connected by means of non-iso-
lated connections or the screens of screened cables are connected at
both ends and grounded on different sections of the plant. One
reason for a potential difference can be that different sections of the
plant are powered from different power sources. These potential dif-
ferences must be reduced by means of equipotential bonding conduc-
tors to ensure that the electronic equipment employed on the plant
operates properly.

Rules for equipotential n The lower the impedance of the equipotential bonding conductor,
bonding the higher the effectiveness of potential equalization.
n The impedance of the equipotential bonding conductor must not
exceed 10% of the impedance of the screen where screened
signal lines are connected between the different sections of the
plant and the screening is connected to ground/neutral on both
sides.
n The cross-sectional area of the equipotential bonding conductor
must be calculated to carry the maximum equalization current.
The following cross-sections have been successfully employed:
– 16mm2 Cu for equipotential bonding conductors up to 200m
– 25mm2 Cu equipotential bonding conductors exceeding 200m.
n Use copper or galvanized steel for equipotential bonding conduc-
tors. These must be connected to ground/neutral by means of
large-surface connections that are protected from corrosion.
n The equipotential bonding conductor should be installed in such a
manner that it includes the smallest surface between the bonding
conductor and the signal lines.

Screening of lines and Screening is one method commonly used to reduce (attenuate) the
cables interference pick-up from magnetic, electrical or electromagnetic
fields.
n Interference on screens is conducted to ground by the conductive
connection between the screen and the screening rain/enclosure.
To avoid interference from these currents it is very important that
the neutral connection is a low-impedance connection.
n You should only use cables that are provided with a braided
screen. The degree of screening should be more than 80%.
n Avoid cables with foil-type screens as the foil can be easily dam-
aged by tension and pressure at the point of attachment; this can
result in reduced effectiveness of the screening action.
n As a rule you should always ground the screens of cables on both
ends. This is the only way in which you can ensure that high fre-
quency interference is attenuated properly.

One-sided grounding of In exceptional cases it may be necessary to ground the screen on

screens one side only. However, this will only attenuate the lowest frequen-
cies. The one-sided grounding of screens may provide advantages
when:
n It is not possible to install an equipotential bonding conductor
n Analogue signals (a few mV or mA) must be transmitted
n Foil-type screening (static screening) is employed.

 Installation Guidelines VIPA HMI
Special precautions providing high noise immunity

You should always use metallic or metallised covers for serial data
lines. Connect the screen of the data line to the cover. Do not con-
nect the screen to PIN 1 of the connector! In case of stationary opera-
tions it is recommended that the remove the insulation from the
screened cable without cutting the screen and to attach this point to
the screening/neutral rail.

Potential differences can give rise to an equalization cur-

rent via the screen connected between the two ground
connections. In this case you must install an additional
equipotential bonding conductor.

Connecting the screen Please observe the following points when you handle the screens:
n Use only metallic cable clamps when connecting the screening of
cables. These clamps must provide a good electrical contact and
a large-surface connection to the screen.
n Attach the screens to the screening rail directly at the point where
the cables enter the enclosure. The screening conductor must be
continued to the module without interruption, however, it must not
be connected to the module!

4.4 Special precautions providing high noise immunity

Inductors require Inductors controlled by your programmable controller (e.g. contactors
snubber networks and relays) do not normally require additional snubber networks or
suppressors as the respective modules have been provided with the
required components.

Equipotential bonding Snubber networks must only be connected to inductors when output
circuits can be disabled by means of additional contacts (e.g. relay
contacts). In this case the integrated suppressors on the module are
also disabled. You can connect diodes to suppress back-emc, varis-
tors or RC-networks to the inductors.

Power outlet for PGs Every cubicle must be provided with a power outlet for the PU. These
outlets must be wired to the distribution system, which is also used to
connect the neutral conductor for the cubicle.

Cubicle illumination The cubicle illumination should consist of incandescent lights, e.g.
LINESTRA-lamps. Avoid using fluorescent lamps as these lamps can
cause interference. If you can not avoid using fluorescent lamps you
should implement the steps outlined in the following figure.

Connection of the inactive parts
You should take special care to check the connections of:
n Module racks
n Frames
n Screen and protected earth conductor
Are all the inactive metal parts interconnected by means of large-sur-
face and low-impedance connections?
Has a proper connection been installed with respect to the ground/pro-
tected earth conductor system?
Has the isolation been removed from varnished and anodized surfaces
or have these connections been fitted with special contact washer?
Have the connection been protected from corrosion, e.g. by means of
grease?
Have doors been grounded by means of grounding straps connected
to the body of the cubicle?
Cable routing
Cabling divided into groups?
Power cables (230 ... 400V) and signal lines installed in separate
channels or bunches?
Potential compensating
When installing the equipment at separate locations, check the instal-
lation of the potential compensating line.
Cable screen
All covers of plugs are metallic?
All analog and data lines installed screened?
Line screens attached to the screening or the protected earth con-
ductor?
Have the screens been connected by means of large-surface and low-
impedance cable clamps?
Cable screens grounded both-sided where possible?
Inductors
Have the coils of contactors controlled by means of contacts been
connected to snubber networks?
