Preface

Migration Considerations This migration considerations checklist includes some of the key migration
requirements to consider when replacing your 700H drive with a 755 drive. This
Checklist checklist is intended as a prompt to help you think about the key requirements
you need to understand before you can design a migration plan. This checklist is
not a step-by-step migration process.

Use this migration guide, along with the publications listed in Additional
Resources on page 7, to help you understand your current 700H installation, and
the technical solution for migrating to a 755 drive.

Table 1 - Migration Considerations Checklist

Topic Considerations
Common mode capacitors and MOV jumpers Verify the configuration of the common mode capacitor and MOV for the 700H drive.
(see page 10) Make sure that the common mode capacitor and MOV configuration of the new 755 drive is compatible with your
existing installation prior to commissioning the 755 drive.
Specifications and features Determine the specifications and features that are required for your drive.
(see page 11) Determine if you want to add or change specifications or features for this migration.
Compare the specifications and features of the drives to help you select the 755 drive that meets your migration
requirements.
Amp and horsepower ratings Compare your 700H drive ratings to the 755 drive ratings.
(see page 16) Determine which 755 drive meets your ratings requirements.
Dimensions and enclosure types Verify that the 755 drive footprint will fit into the existing space, and that the 755 drive enclosure is rated for the
(see page 20) installation environment.

Power and control terminals Determine if the 755 drive will require additional or different wiring and cabling due to differences in the terminal
(see page 28 and page 40) blocks.
Determine the 755 drive option modules you will need to meet the performance and function of your migration.
Power wiring impedance Frames 12…14 of the 700H drives require minimum cable lengths and/or reactors between the drive and the motors;
(see page 39) the 755 drive does not.
Determine if the 755 drive will require different motor lead quantities, termination methods, and cable lengths due to
the difference in impedance requirements.
Cooling and airflow requirements The 755 drive has different airflow channels than the 700H drive. Determine the differences in minimum mounting
(see page 52) clearances and airflows needed to maintain the correct operating temperature of the 755 drive.

IP00, NEMA/UL type open power structures IP00, NEMA/UL type open installations are not standard-drive solutions. These installations are engineered-drive
(see page 54) solutions, and migration to a 755 open type solution requires a careful technical review of your existing 700H
installation, and careful technical planning and design of the 755 open type solution.
Programing and parameters Drive configuration options for the 700H are programmed using the option cards in the five available slots of the control
(see page 55) board. Some of the same drive configurations for the 755 drive are programmed by the drive parameters.
Determine your current 700H drive control board configurations, and determine the 755 parameters you will need to
migrate to the 755 drive.
Network communication Network communications can vary significantly depending on the communication option in the 700H drive, the
(see page 63) controller type communicating to the drive, and which 755 drive model is selected.
Identify your current network communication configuration and verify that the 755 drive is compatible with, or can be
adapted to, your current communication network and devices.
Safety option modules The 755 drive offers a safe torque off and safe speed monitor option modules.
(see page 67) Determine the safety control system of your 700H drive, and determine how the 755 drive safety option modules can
meet or exceed your current safety control system.

Chapter 1 Drive Selection Considerations

PowerFlex Drive Conversion Use the following tables to compare amps, kilowatts, horsepower, and dimensions
for migrating your 700H drive to a 755 drive. Because of the wide variety of
Guide possible migration options, we provide these tables as an example of how you can
compare your 700H drive with the different 755 drives.

IMPORTANT Dimensions are for NEMA/UL Type 1 cabinets. See Dimensions and Enclosure
Types on page 20 and PowerFlex Drive Catalog Numbers on page 48 to
compare your current 700H drive to the possible 755 drive configurations.

(1) This wiring configuration is possible when there are no output options in the option bay and the motor connections are wired from the drive bay.
(2) Other configurations with shielded cable are possible, but using conduit hubs is recommended.

IMPORTANT Carefully review and compare your existing 700H wiring with the 755 wiring
described in Enclosure Options, NEMA/UL Type 1 Enclosure - 2500 MCC Style
Cabinet (Approximate Dimensions, and Power and Control Wiring sections) in
the PowerFlex 750-Series AC Drives Installation Instructions,
publication 750-IN001.

Power Wiring Impedance For 700H drives, frames 12…14, the minimum cable length for parallel motor
cables from the drive to the point where the cables connect is 5 m (16.4 ft). The
Considerations parallel cables are joined at the motor end (not the drive end). Or, a reactor can
be installed on the output of each power module with a minimum of 5 uH prior
to joining the parallel cables at the motor end.

The 755 drive does not require the same cabling configuration to meet
impedance and inductance requirements.

Refer to the Wiring and Grounding Guidelines for Pulse Width Modulated
(PWM) AC Drives, publication DRIVES-IN001, for minimum inductance on
installations where dv/dt filters are not installed.

IMPORTANT The difference in power wiring and cabling requirements between the 700H
and 755 drives can affect motor lead quantity, termination methods, and cable
lengths.
Carefully review and compare your existing 700H wiring with the 755 wiring
described in the PowerFlex 750-Series AC Drives Installation Instructions,
publication 750-IN001.

(6) Contacts in un-powered state. Any relay programmed as fault or alarm will energize (pick up) when power is applied to drive and de-
energize (drop out) when a fault or alarm exists. Relays selected for other functions will energize only when that condition exists and will de-
energize when condition is removed.

IMPORTANT The 700H drive has dual ratings of 400/480V and 600/690V which require a
parameter change to adapt the drive to a specific voltage.
The 755 drive does not have a dual rating, it uses a hardware change to adapt
the drive to the specific voltage class.

Chapter 1 Drive Selection Considerations

IP00, NEMA/UL Type Open There are many possible different engineered solutions for the IP00, NEMA/UL
Type Open power structure installations. Contact your local Rockwell
Power Structures Automation representative, systems integrator, or engineering integrator if you
are interested in migrating your 700H open type drive to a 755 open type or
standard drive.

ATTENTION: Only qualified personnel familiar with adjustable frequency AC

drives and associated machinery should plan or implement the installation,
startup, and subsequent maintenance of the system. Failure to comply may
result in personal injury and/or equipment damage.

IMPORTANT IP00, NEMA/UL type open installations are not standard-drive solutions. These
installations are engineered-drive solutions, and migration to a 755 open type
solution requires a careful technical review of your existing 700H installation,
and careful technical planning and design of the 755 open type solution.

The installation instructions below provide technical information for installing

the 700H and 755 open type drives in a customer-supplied enclosure. Review
these instructions for technical specifications and information that can help you
engineer a solution for your IP00, NEMA/UL Type Open migration.

 Chapter 2

Analog Speed Follower and Preset Speed

Drive Configuration The 700H is typically controlled by digital I/O, analog speed follower, and a
preset speed module, or possibly via a communication network.

The information in this chapter covers the hard-wired stand-alone configurations

of analog speed follower and preset speed.

Drive configuration options for the 700H are programmed using the option
cards in the five available slots of the control board (see 700H Control Circuit
Board Designations on page 42). Some of the same drive configurations for the
755 drive are programmed by the drive parameters.

Determine your current 700H drive control board configurations, and determine
the 755 parameters you will need to migrate to the 755 drive. Refer to these
programming manuals to help you understand and identify the different drive
configuration and programming options:
• PowerFlex 750-Series AC Drives Programming Manual,
publication 750-PM001
• PowerFlex 700H Adjustable Frequency AC Drive Programming Manual,
publication 20C-PM001

Analog Speed Follower The 755 drive can be configured to use an analog source as a speed reference. The
default configuration is port 1, but the drive can be configured to follow a ±10V
DC source, 0…10V DC source, or 4…20 mA source with an optional analog I/O
module. See 755 Drive I/O Option Modules on page 45.

This section provides three common examples with the 700H drive using
different speed-reference inputs along with hard-wired start/stop/direction
control, and the equivalent 755 drive configurations.

Programming the Drives The HIM is used to program the drive parameters. Refer to these programming
manuals for details on how to use the HIM and for a full list of programming
with the Human Interface parameters:

Chapter 2 Analog Speed Follower and Preset Speed

Three-wire Control with Analog Speed Reference Examples

The 3-wire control method is start/stop/direction. The digital control inputs use
the internal 24V DC supply of the drive, and the analog speed follower reference
uses a 10 kΏ potentiometer wired to the internal 10V DC power supply of the
drive.

For an example of the analog speed reference, see Two-wire Control with Analog
Input Speed Reference Examples on page 58.

Network Communication

Overview A 700H drive with a communication option card can be replaced with a
755 drive communication option card. The process to migrate can vary
significantly depending on the communication option in the 700H drive, the
controller type communicating to the drive, and which 755 drive model is
selected.

This section describes the network options that are compatible with the 755
drives, and introduces the dedicated communication types for the 755 drives.

Because of the wide variety of networks, processors, and drive options available,
use this section to understand the types of network communication that are
available for the 755 drives, and determine the correct communication option for
your drive migration.

Communication Option Locations

The figures below show the location for the 700H and 755 drive communication
option adapters.

Software Versions
The 755 drives use the same software packages as the 700H drives, but knowing
the software versions of each drive is essential to an effective migration. See the
following table.

Velocity Reference/Feedback

The 700H drive velocity reference and feedback data is represented as scaled
values, or a value of 32,767 will equate to parameter 55 [Maximum Freq] setting,
and a value of 0 will equate to 0 Hz.

The 755 drive velocity reference and feedback data are in engineering units and
are dependent on P300 [Speed Units]. A reference of 30.0 equals either 30 Hz or
30.0 rpm.

Using the I/O

The terms input and output (as in I/O) are defined from the perspective of the
controller:
• Output is data that is produced by the controller and sent to the adapter.
• Input is data that is produced by the adapter and sent to the controller.

The I/O image varies greatly depending on the communication adaptor. Refer to
the respective I/O adaptor user manual for details about the adapter.
