Subject to alteration.
Danger!
Dangerous electrical voltage!
Before commencing the installation
Disconnect the power supply of the device.
Ensure that devices cannot be accidentally retriggered.
Verify isolation from the supply.
Ground and short-circuit.
Cover or enclose neighbouring units that are live.
Follow the engineering instructions (IL) of the device
concerned.
Only suitably qualified personnel in accordance with
EN 50110-1/-2 (VDE 0105 Part 100) may work on this device/
system.
Before installation and before touching the device ensure
that you are free of electrostatic charge.
The functional earth (FE) must be connected to the
protective earth (PE) or to the potential equalizing.
The system installer is responsible for implementing this
connection.
Connecting cables and signal lines should be installed so
that inductive or capacitive interference do not impair the
automation functions.
Install automation devices and related operating elements
in such a way that they are well protected against unintentional operation.
Suitable safety hardware and software measures should
be implemented for the I/O connection so that a cable or
wire breakage on the signal side does not result in
undefined states in the automation device.
Ensure a reliable electrical isolation of the low voltage for
the 24 V supply. Only use power supply units complying
with IEC 60364-4-41 or HD 384.4.41 S2 (VDE 0100 part 410).
Deviations of the mains voltage from the nominal value
must not exceed the tolerance limits given in the technical
data, otherwise this may cause malfunction and
dangerous operation.
Eaton Industries GmbH

Safety instructions
Emergency-Stop devices complying with IEC/EN 60204-1

must be effective in all operating modes of the automation
devices. Unlatching the emergency switching off devices
must not cause restart.
Built-in devices for enclosures or cabinets must only be
run and operated in an installed state, desk-top devices or
portable devices only when the housing is closed.
Measures should be taken to ensure the proper restart of
programs interrupted after a voltage dip or failure. This
should not cause dangerous operating states even for a
short time. If necessary, emergency switching off devices
should be implemented.
Wherever faults in the automation system may cause

damage to persons or property, external measures must
be implemented to ensure a safe operating state in the
event of a fault or malfunction (for example, by means of
separate limit switches, mechanical interlocks, etc.).
During operation, and depending on their degree of
protection, variable frequency drives may have live,
uninsulated, moving, and/or rotating parts, as well as hot
surfaces.
The impermissible removal of the required cover,
improper installation or incorrect operation of the motor or
variable frequency drive can cause the failure of the
device and serious injury and/or material damage.
Comply with all applicable national accident prevention
regulations (e.g. BGV A3) when working with energized
variable frequency drives.
The electrical installation must be carried out in
accordance with the relevant regulations (e.g. with regard
to cable cross sections, fuses, PE).
All transport, installation, commissioning and maintenance work must only be carried out by trained personnel
(observe IEC 60364, HD 384 or DIN VDE 0100 and national
accident prevention regulations).
If applicable, systems in which variable frequency drives
are installed must be equipped with additional monitoring
and protective devices in accordance with the applicable
safety regulations, e.g., the German Equipment and
Product Safety Act, accident prevention regulations, etc.
Making changes to the variable frequency drives by using
the operating software is allowed.
Keep all covers and doors closed during operation.
When designing the machine, the user must incorporate
mechanisms and measures that limit the consequences of
a drive controller malfunction or failure (an increase in
motor speed or the motor's sudden stop) so as to prevent
hazards to people and property, e.g.:
Additional stand-alone devices for monitoring parameters that are relevant to safety (speed, travel, end
positions, etc.)
Electrical and non-electrical safety devices (interlocks
or mechanical locks) for mechanisms that protect the
entire system
Due to the possibility of there being capacitors that are
still holding a charge, do not touch live device parts or
terminals immediately after disconnecting the variable
frequency drives from the supply voltage. Heed the
corresponding labels on the variable frequency drives

0.5 Mains supply voltages
0.5 Mains supply voltages

The rated operating voltages stated in the following table are based on the
standard values for networks with a grounded star point.
In ring networks (as found in Europe) the rated operating voltage at the
transfer point of the power supply companies is the same as the value in the
consumer networks (e.g. 230 V, 400 V).
In star networks (as found in North America), the rated operating voltage at
the transfer point of the utility companies is higher than in the consumer
network.
Example: 120 V 115 V, 240 V 230 V, 480 V 460 V.
The DC1 variable frequency drive's wide tolerance range takes into account a
permissible voltage drop of 10% (i.e. ULN - 10%) while, in the 400-V category, it takes into account the North American mains voltage of 480 V + 10 %
(60 Hz).
The permissible power supply for the DC1 series is listed in the Technical
Specifications section in the annex.
The rated mains voltage operational data is always based on mains frequencies of 50/60 Hz within a range of 48 to 62 Hz.
0.6 Units of measurement

Every physical dimension included in this manual uses international metric
system units, otherwise known as SI (Systme International dUnits) units.
For the purpose of the equipment's UL certification, some of these dimensions are accompanied by their equivalents in imperial units.

1 DC1 device series

1.1 Introduction
1 DC1 device series

1.1 Introduction
Due to their ease of use and high reliability, DC1 PowerXL variable
frequency drives are ideal for general applications involving three-phase
motors. In addition, an integrated radio interference suppression filter and a
flexible interface ensure that the inverters meet a number of important
needs in the machine building industry when it comes to the optimization of
production and manufacturing processes.
For installations in control panels, devices with a performance range
of 0.37 (for 230 V) to 11 kW (for 400 V) are available in a compact and
sturdy design featuring three available sizes (FS1, FS2, FS3) and a degree
of protection of IP20.
For distributed local installations, there are three sizes covering a performance range of 0.37 (for 230 V) to 7.5 kW (for 400 V) and featuring a degree
of protection of IP66. These models come in two versions: with and without
local controls. These local controls include a setpoint potentiometer, a
selector switch for switching operating directions, and a lockable main
switch on the mains side.
The computer-based drivesConnect parameter configuration program
ensures data integrity and reduces the time required for commissioning and
maintenance.
In addition, the comprehensive accessories available increase the inverters'
flexibility in all areas of application.

Mains voltage = rated operating voltage of the motor (e. g. 3~ 400 V),
Rated motor current (recommended value, dependent on the circuit type
and the power supply)
Load torque (quadratic, constant),
Starting torque,
Ambient air temperature (rated value e. g. +40 C).
Ambient conditions (control cabinet installation for IP20 degree of
protection and direct local installation for IP66 degree of protection)
When connecting multiple motors in parallel to the output of a

variable frequency drive, the motor currents are added geometrically separated by effective and idle current components.
When you select a variable frequency drive, make sure that it
can supply the total resulting current. If necessary, for dampening and compensating the deviating current values, motor
reactors or sine filters must be installed between the variable

1.9 Proper use
1.9 Proper use

The DC1 variable frequency drives are not domestic appliances. They are
designed only for industrial use as system components.
The DC1 variable frequency drives are electrical devices for controlling variable speed drives with three-phase motors. They are designed for installation
in machines or for use in combination with other components within a
machine or system
If installed in a machine, the variable frequency drives must not be placed
into operation until it is confirmed that the relevant machine complies with
the safety requirements set forth in the 2006/22/EC Machinery Directive
(meets the requirements set forth in EN 60204). The user of the equipment
is responsible for ensuring that the machine use complies with the relevant
EU Directives.
The CE markings on DC1 variable frequency drives confirm that the devices
meet the requirements set forth in the European Union's Low Voltage and
EMC Directives (Directives 2006/95/EC and 2006/42/EC) when used in their
typical drive configuration.
In the described system configurations, DC1 variable frequency drives are
suitable for use in public and non-public networks.
A connection of a DC1 variable frequency drive to IT networks (networks
without reference to earth potential) is permissible only to a limited extent,
since the devices built-in filter capacitors connect the network with the earth
potential (enclosure).
On earth free networks, this can lead to dangerous situations or damage to
the device (isolation monitoring required).
To the output (terminals U, V, W) of the DC1 variable frequency

drive you must not:
connect a voltage or capacitive loads (e.g. phase compensation capacitors),

connect multiple variable frequency drives in parallel,
make a direct connection to the input (bypass).
Observe the technical data and connection requirements.

For additional information, refer to the equipment rating plate or label of the
variable frequency drive and the documentation. Any other usage constitutes
improper use.

1.10 Maintenance and inspection
1.10 Maintenance and inspection

DC1 series variable frequency drives will be maintenance-free as long as the
general rated operational data ( Section 1.5, Designations for the
elements in variable frequency drives with an IP20 degree of protection,
page 18) is adhered to and the specific technical data (see annex) for the
corresponding ratings is taken into account. Please note, however, that
external influences may affect the operation and lifespan of a DC1 variable
frequency drive.
We therefore recommend that the devices are checked regularly and the
following maintenance measures are carried out at the specified intervals.
Table 2: Recommended maintenance for DC1 variable frequency drives

According to manufacturer specifications, no later than 5 years
Charge capacitors
12 months
( Section 1.12, Charging the internal DC link capacitors)
There are no plans for replacing or repairing individual components of DC1

variable frequency drives!
If the DC1 variable frequency drive is damaged by external influences, repair
is not possible.
Dispose of the device according to the applicable environmental laws and
provisions for the disposal of electrical or electronic devices.
1.11 Storage
If the DC1 variable frequency drive is stored before use, suitable ambient
conditions must be ensured at the site of storage:
24
Storage temperature: -40 - +60 C,

Relative average air humidity: < 95 %, non condensing (EN 50178),
To prevent damage to the RASP DC link capacitors, storage times longer
than 12 months are not recommended
( Section 1.12, Charging the internal DC link capacitors).
12/13 MN04020003Z-EN
www.eaton.com
1 DC1 device series

1.12 Charging the internal DC link capacitors
1.12 Charging the internal DC link capacitors

After extended storage times or extended downtimes during which no
power is supplied (> 12 months), the capacitors in the internal DC link must
be recharged in a controlled manner in order to prevent damage. To do this,
the DC1 variable frequency drive must be supplied with power, with a
controlled DC power supply unit, via two mains connection terminals
(e.g. L1 and L2).
In order to prevent the capacitors from having excessively high leakage
currents, the inrush current should be limited to approximately 300 to
800 mA (depending on the relevant rating). The variable frequency drive
must not be enabled during this time (i.e. no start signal). After this, the DC
voltage must be set to the magnitudes for the corresponding DC link voltage
(UDC 1.41 x Ue) and applied for one hour at least (regeneration time).
DC1-12, DC1-32: about 324 V DC at Ue = 230 V AC
DC1-34: about 560 V DC at Ue = 400 V AC
Due to the internal voltage doubler circuit, the capacitors in

DC1-1D variable frequency drives cannot be reformed using
the connection terminals!

Figure 11: AC supply systems with earthed center point
While planning the project, consider a symmetrical distribution

to the three main phase conductors, if multiple variable
frequency drives with single-phase supplies are to be
connected. The total current of all single phase consumers is
not to cause an overload of the neutral conductor (N-conductor).
The connection and operation of variable frequency drives to asymmetrically

grounded TN networks (phase-grounded Delta network "Grounded Delta",
USA) or non-grounded or high-resistance grounded (over 30 ) IT networks is
only conditionally permissible.
Operation on non-earthed networks (IT) requires the use of suitable insulation monitors (e.g. pulse-code measurement method)
In networks with an earthed phase conductor, the maximum

phase-earth voltage must not exceed 300 VAC.
If a DC1 variable frequency drive is connected to a corner-grounded system

or to an IT system (ungrounded, insulated), the internal radio interference
suppression filter must be disconnected (by unscrewing the screw marked
EMC in DC1--A20N only).

The required filter winding for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) no longer

Measures for electromagnetic compatibility are mandatory in a

magnet system, to meet the legal standards for EMC- and Low
Voltage Directive.
Good earthing measures are a prerequisite for the effective
insert of further measures such as screen earth kit or filters
here. Without respective grounding measures, further steps are
superfluous.
2.2.2 Mains voltage and frequency

DC1 variable frequency drives feature a wide tolerance range that incorporates the rated values for European (ULN = 230 V/400 V, 50 Hz) and American
(ULN = 240 V/480 V, 60 Hz) standard voltages:
115 V, 50/60 Hz at DC1-1D

110 V - 10 % - 115 V + 10 % (99 V - 0 % - 126.5 V + 0 %)
230 V, 50 Hz; 240 V, 60 Hz bei DC1-12, DC1-32
200 V - 10 % - 240 V + 10 % (180 V - 0 % - 264 V + 0 %)
400 V, 50 Hz; 480 V, 60 Hz bei DC1-34
380 V - 10 % - 480 V + 10 % (342 V - 0 % - 528 V + 0 %)
The permissible frequency range for all voltage categories is 50/60 Hz

(48 Hz - 0% - 62 Hz + 0%).
2.2.3 Voltage balance

Unbalanced voltages and deviations from the ideal voltage shape may occur
in three-phase AC supply systems if the phase conductors are loaded
unevenly and if large output loads are connected directly. In variable
frequency drives powered with a three-phase power supply, these unbalances may cause the diodes in the mains rectifier to be loaded unevenly,
resulting in premature diode failure.
12/13 MN04020003Z-EN
www.eaton.com
29
2 Engineering
In the project planning for the connection of three-phase

supplied variable frequency drives (DC1-3), consider only AC
supply systems that handle permitted asymmetric divergences
in the mains voltage +3 %.
If this condition is not met or if the unbalance at the connection
location is not known, it is recommended to use a recommended mains choke (please refer to the annex, "Mains chokes"
section, page 214).
2.2.4 Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)

Non-linear consumers (loads) in an AC supply system produce harmonic
voltages that again result in harmonic currents. These harmonic currents at
the inductive and capacitive reactances of a mains supply system produce
additional voltage drops with different values which are then overlaid on the
sinusoidal mains voltage and result in distortions. In supply systems, this
form of "noise" can give rise to problems in an installation if the sum of the
harmonics exceeds certain limit values.
The THD value (THD = Total Harmonic Distortion) is defined in standard
IEC/EN 61800-3 as the ratio of the rms value of all harmonic components to
the rms value of the fundamental frequency.
In order to reduce THD values (up to 30%), it is recommended

to use a recommended mains choke (please refer to the annex,
"Mains chokes" section, page 214).
2.2.5 Idle power compensation devices

Compensation on the power supply side is not required for the variable
frequency drives of the DC1 series. From the AC power supply network
they only take on very little reactive power of the fundamental harmonics
(cos ~ 0.98).
In the AC supply systems with non-choked reactive current

compensation devices, current deviations can enable parallel
resonance and undefinable circumstances.
In the project planning for the connection of variable frequency
drives to AC supply systems with undefined circumstances,
consider using main chokes.
30
12/13 MN04020003Z-EN
www.eaton.com
2 Engineering
2.2.6 Mains chokes

Main chokes (also known as commutating chokes) increase the inductance
of the mains supply cable. This extends the current flow period and dampens
mains voltage drops.
Towards the variable frequency drive, the main chokes dampen the interference from the supply network. This increases the electric strength of the
variable frequency drive and lengthens the lifespan (diodes of the mains
power rectifier, internal DC link capacitors).
For the operation of the DC1 variable frequency drive, the

application of main chokes is not necessary. We do recommend
however that an upstream mains choke is used since the
network quality is not known in most cases.
While planning the project, consider that a main choke is only
assigned to a single variable frequency drive for decoupling.
When using an adapting transformer (assigned to a single variable frequency drive), a main choke is not necessary.
Main chokes are designed based on the mains-side input
current (ILN) of the variable frequency drive.
The mains chokes recommended for DC1 variable frequency
drives are listed in the annex ( Table 32 and Table 33)
( Section 11.16, Mains chokes, page 215).

Figure 13: Circuit Diagram of a sine filter
The sine filter removes high-frequency components above the set resonance
frequency from the variable frequency drive output voltage (U2).
This reduces the conducted and radiated emission.
Advantages of sine filters:
Long motor cable lengths with reduced conducted and radiated interference
Reduced motor losses and noise
Longer motor lifespan
Disadvantages of sine filters:
Voltage drop of up to 9% caused by system

(approx. 36 V if U2 = 400 V)
higher heat dissipation,
A fixed pulse frequency is required
Require more space inside the control panel
NOTICE
sine filters must only be used with permanently set pulse
frequencies.

2.3 Safety and switching

2.3.1 Fuses and cable cross-sections
The fuses and wire cross-sections allocated for power-side connections
depend on the rated mains current ILN of the variable frequency drive
(without main choke).
NOTICE
When selecting the cable cross-section, take the voltage drop
under load conditions into account.
The consideration of other standards (e.g. VDE 0113 or
VDE 0289) is the responsibility of the user.
The recommended fuses and their assignment to the variable frequency
drives are listed in Page 206 the annex.
The national and regional standards (for example VDE 0113, EN 60204) must
be observed and the necessary approvals (for example UL) at the site of
installation must be fulfilled.
When the device is operated in a UL-approved system, use only UL-approved
fuses, fuse bases and cables. The permissible cables must have a heat
resistance of 75 C.
The connection terminals marked with and the metallic enclosure (IP66)
must be connected to the earth-current circuit.
The leakage currents to earth (as defined in EN 50178) are higher than
3.5 mA.
They are listed for the individual ratings in the annex, under the specific
technical data, starting on Page 173.
As per the requirements in standard EN 50178, a protective

earth (PE) must be connected. The cable cross-section must be
at least 10 mm2 or consist of two separately connected earthing
cables.
NOTICE
The specified minimum PE conductor cross-sections (EN 50178,
VDE 0160) must be maintained.
A completely (360) screened low impedance cable on the motor side is

required. The length of the motor cable depends on the RFI class and the
environment.
12/13 MN04020003Z-EN

Choose the cross-section of the PE conductor in the motor lines

at least as large as the cross-section of the phase conductors
(U, V, W).
2.3.2 Residual current circuit-breaker (RCD)

Residual current circuit-breakers (RCDs = residual current devices) protect
people and farm animals from the presence (not the production of!) impermissibly high touch voltages. They prevent dangerous (including fatal) injuries
caused by electrical accidents and also serve to prevent fires.
CAUTION
In the case of variable frequency drives powered with a threephase power supply, certain faults may produce DC currents
that will prevent type A RCD protective devices from tripping,
thus rendering the protection they provide ineffective.
RCD protective devices must be used exclusively for variable

frequency drives powered with a single-phase (L, N) power
supply.
Only AC/DC sensitive residual current circuit-breakers (RCD,

type B) should be used with three-phase variable frequency
drives (EN 50178, IEC 755).
NOTICE
Residual current devices (RCD) are only to be installed between
the AC supply system and the variable frequency drive.
NOTICE
Safety-relevant leakage currents can occur while handling and
when operating the variable frequency drive, if the variable
frequency drive is not grounded.
Leakage currents to earth are mainly caused by foreign capacities with variable
frequency drives: between the motor phases and the shielding of the motor
cable and via the star capacitor of the radio interference suppression filter.
The size of the leakage currents is mainly dependent upon the:
34
length of the motor cable,

shielding of the motor cable,
height of the pulse frequency (switching frequency of the inverter),
design of the radio interference suppression filter
grounding measures at the site of the motor.

2.4 EMC compliance
2.3.3 Mains contactors

The mains contactor enables an operational switching on and off of the
supply voltage for the variable frequency drive and switching off in case of a
fault.
The mains contactor is designed based on the mains-side input current ILN of
the variable frequency drive for utilization category AC-1 (IEC 60947) and the
ambient air temperature at the location of use. Mains contactors and their
assignment to the variable frequency drives belonging to the DC1 series are
listed in the annex ( Table 26, page 208).
While planning the project, make sure that inching operation is

not done via the mains contactor of the variable frequency drive
on frequency-controlled drives, but through a controller input of
the variable frequency drive.
The maximum permissible mains voltage switch-on frequency
for the DC1 variable frequency drive is once every 30 seconds
(normal operation).
2.4 EMC compliance

Electrical components in a system (machine) have a reciprocal effect on each
other. Each device not only emits interference but is also affected by it. This
occurs as a result of galvanic, capacitive and/or inductive coupling or through
electromagnetic radiation. In practice, the limit between line-conducted interference and emitted interference is around 30 MHz. At values above 30 MHz
the lines and cables act like antennas and radiate the electromagnetic waves.
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) for frequency controlled drives (variable
speed drives) is implemented in accordance with product standard IEC/EN
61800-3. This includes the complete power magnet system (PDS = Power
Drive System), from the mains supply to the motor, including all components, as well as cables ( Figure 10, page 27). This type of magnet system
can consist of several individual drives.
The generic standards of the individual components in a magnet system
compliant with IEC/EN 61800-3 do not apply. These component manufacturers, however, must offer solutions that ensure standards-compliant use.
In Europe, maintaining the EMC Directive is mandatory.
A declaration of conformity (CE) refers always to a "typical" power magnet
system (PDS). The responsibility to comply with the legally stipulated limit
values and thus the provision of electromagnetic compatibility is ultimately
the responsibility of the end user or system operator.
Measures must be taken to remove or minimize emission in the associated
environment. He must also utilize means to increase the interference immunity of the devices of the system.
12/13 MN04020003Z-EN
www.eaton.com
35
2 Engineering
2.4 EMC compliance
With their high interference immunity up to category C3, DC1 variable
frequency drives are ideal for use in harsh industrial networks (2nd environment).
The DC1-F version (with integrated RFI filter) makes it possible to
comply with the stringent limit values for conducted emission for category
C1 in the 1st environment. This requires a correct EMC installation
( Page 51) and the observance of the permissible motor cable lengths and
the maximum switching frequency (fPWM) of the inverter.
In the case of variable frequency drives without an internal radio interference
suppression filter, longer motor cable lengths and lower leakage currents can
sometimes be achieved for the individual categories by using a dedicated
external radio interference suppression filter.
The required EMC measures should be taken into account in the engineering
phase. Improvements and modifications during mounting and installation or
even at the installation site involve additional and even considerably higher
costs.

2.5.1 Motor Selection
General recommendations for motor selection:
For a frequency-controlled magnet system (PDS), use three-phase AC

motors with squirrel-cage rotors and surface cooling, also known as
three-phase asynchronous motors or standard motors. Other types of
motors, such as external rotor motors, wound-rotor motors, reluctance
motors, permanent-magnet motors, synchronous motors, and servomotors can also be operated with a variable frequency drive, but normally
require additional engineering in consultation with the motor's manufacturer.
Only use motors that have insulation class F (maximum steady state
temperature of 155 C ) at least.
Choose 4 pole motors preferably (synchronous speed: 1500 min-1
at 50 Hz and 1800 min-1 at 60 Hz).
Take the operating conditions into account for S1 operation (IEC 60034-1).
When operating multiple motors in parallel on one variable frequency
drive, the motor output should not be more than three power classes
apart.
Ensure that the motor is not overdimensioned. If it is underdimensioned
in the "speed control" (slip compensation) operating mode, the motor
output may only be one single assigned output level lower.
2.5.2 Parallel connection of motors

DC1 variable frequency drives make it possible to run several motors in
parallel in "V/Hz control" mode (P-10 = 0).
If several motors are connected, the total of the motor currents,

taking the inrush currents into account (only when the motor is
connected during ongoing operation), must be less than the variable frequency drive's rated operational current.
Parallel operation at different motor speeds can be implemented only by

changing the number of pole pairs and/or changing the motors transmission
ratio.
Connecting motors in parallel reduces the load resistance at the variable
frequency drive output. The total stator inductance is lower and the leakage
capacity of the lines greater. As a result, the current distortion is greater than
in a single-motor circuit.
In order to reduce the amount of current distortion, a motor choke should be
used at the variable frequency drive's output ( Table 34, page 218 and
Table 35, page 218).
12/13 MN04020003Z-EN
www.eaton.com
37
2 Engineering
2.5 Motor
NOTICE
If multiple motors are connected in parallel to a single variable
frequency drive, make sure to dimension the individual motors'
contactors as required for utilization category AC-3.
The motor contactors must be selected according to the rated
operational currents of the motors that will be connected.
If several motors are being run in parallel, you will not be able to
use the variable frequency drive's electronic motor protection.
Each motor will have to be protected individually with thermistors and/or an overload relay.
Within a frequency range of 20 to 120 Hz, the PKE electronic

motor-protective circuit-breaker can be used for motor protection at the variable frequency drive's output as well.

2.5.4 87-Hz Characteristic curve

The three-phase motor with the rating plate in Figure 14 can be operated
with either a star or delta circuit. The operational characteristic curve is determined by the ratio of motor voltage to motor frequency in this case.
The 87-Hz characteristic curve is used to operate the three-phase standard
motor with the rating plate in Figure 14 with a delta circuit on a 400-V
network at 87 Hz. To enable this, the variable frequency drive must deliver
the higher current for delta circuits (3.2 A) and the motor frequency (V/Hz key
point) must be set to 87 Hz on the variable frequency drive.
This results in the following advantages:
The motor's speed adjustment range is increased by a factor of 3 (from

50 Hz to 87 Hz)
The motor's efficiency is improved, since the motor speed increases
while the (absolute) slip remains the same and therefore is smaller,
percentage-wise, relative to the new (higher) speed
Greater power can be taken from the motor (P ~ M x n), making it
possible in some cases to use a motor that is one size smaller (and
therefore less expensive) for the application (e.g., travel motor in crane
drives)
The machine speed of existing machines can be increased without
having to change the motor and/or transmission. In other words, operation does not take place within the field-weakening range
Due to the higher thermal load, it is recommended to only use

the next higher listed motor output.
If using 2 pole motors (p = 1), the high speed of approximately

5,000 rpm must be taken into account (consult the manufacturer's specifications).

The following aspects must be taken into account when connectinghazardous location motors:
40
A variable frequency drive can be installed in an explosion-proof enclosure within the hazardous location or in a control panel outside the
hazardous location.
All applicable industry-specific and country-specific regulations for
hazardous locations (ATEX 100a) must be complied with.
The specifications and instructions provided by the motor's manufacturer with regard to operation with a variable frequency drive e.g.,
whether motor reactors (dV/dt limiting) or sine filters are required must
be taken into account.
Temperature monitors in the motor windings (thermistor, Thermo-Click)
must not be connected directly to the variable frequency drive, but
instead must be connected through a relay approved for the hazardous
location (e.g. EMT6).

3.1 Introduction
This chapter provides a description of the installation and the electrical
connections for the variable frequency drive DC 1 series.
While mounting and/or assembling the variable frequency drive,

cover all ventilation slots in order to ensure that no foreign
bodies can enter the device.
Perform all installation work with the specified tools and without
the use of excessive force.
3.2 Mounting
The instructional leaflets in this section are meant to show how to install the
device in a suitable enclosure for devices with degree of protection IP20 in
compliance with standard EN 60529 and/or any other applicable local regulations.
The enclosures must be made of a material with high thermal conductivity.

If a control panel with ventilation openings is used, the openings must
be located above and below the variable frequency drive in order to allow
for proper air circulation. The air should come in from below the variable
frequency drive and leave above it.
If the environment outside the control panel contains dirt particles
(e.g., dust), a suitable particulate filter must be placed on the ventilation
openings and forced ventilation must be used. The filters must be maintained and cleaned if necessary.
An appropriate enclosed control panel (without ventilation openings)
must be used in environments containing large percentages or amounts
of humidity, salt, or chemicals.

3.3 EMC installation

The responsibility to comply with the legally stipulated limit values and thus
the provision of electromagnetic compatibility is the responsibility of the end
user or system operator. This operator must also take measures to minimize
or remove emission in the environment concerned. He must also utilize
means to increase the interference immunity of the devices of the system.
When implementing a magnet system (PDS) with variable frequency drives,
it is advisable to take into account any necessary electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) measures during the engineering stage, as making changes
during assembly and installation and retroactively fixing things at the installation location will be more expensive.
The technology and system of a variable frequency drive cause the flow of
high frequency leakage current during operation. All grounding measures
must therefore be implemented with low impedance connections over a
large surface area.
With leakage currents greater than 3.5 mA, in accordance with VDE 0160
or EN 60335, either
the cross-sectional area of the protective conductor must be 10 mm2,

the protective conductor must be open-circuit monitored, or
the second protective conductor must be fitted.
For an EMC-compliant installation, we recommend the following measures:
installation of the variable frequency drive in a metallically conductive

housing
with a good connection to ground,
screened motor cables (short cables).
Ground all conductive components and housings in a magnet

system using as short a line as possible with the greatest
possible cross-section (Cu-drain wire).
3.3.1 EMC measures in the control panel

In order to have an installation that meets EMC requirements, make sure to
connect all the metallic parts in the devices and in the control panel to each
other across a large area and in a way that will make it possible to conduct
high frequencies. Mounting plates and control panel doors should make good
contact and be connected with short HF-drain wires. Avoid using painted
surfaces (anodized, yellow chromated). An overview of all EMC measures is
provided in Figure 31 on Page 53.
Install the variable frequency drive as directly as possible

(without spacers) on a metal plate (mounting plate).
12/13 MN04020003Z-EN

52
Route mains and motor cables in the switch cabinet as close to

the ground potential as possible. This is because free moving
cables act as antennas.
When laying HF cables (e.g. screened motor cables) or

suppressed cables (e.g. mains supply cables, control circuit and
signal cables) in parallel, a minimum clearance of 300 mm
should be ensured in order to prevent the radiation of electromagnetic energy. You should also use separate cable entries if
there is a great difference in voltage potentials. Any necessary
crossed cabling between the control signal and power cables
should always be implemented at right angles (90 degrees).
Never lay control- or signal cables in the same duct as power

cables. Analog signal cables (measured, reference and correction values) must be screened.

NOTICE
The screw labeled EMC must not be manipulated as long as the
variable frequency drive is connected to the mains.
The EMC screw (in DC1--A20N models only) galvanically

connects the EMC filter's capacitors to earth. The screw must
be screwed in all the way to the stop (factory setting) in order
for the variable frequency drive to comply with the EMC standard.
Due to their system characteristics, variable frequency drives with an internal

EMC filter will produce a larger fault current to earth than devices without
a filter. For applications in which this larger leakage current may cause
malfunction messages or disconnections (residual current device), the EMC
filter's internal protective earth can be disconnected (remove the EMC screw
to do this).
Local EMC regulations must be taken into account when doing so. If necessary, a specific low-leakage-current EMC filter must be connected upstream.
In connections to isolated power sources (IT networks), the EMC screw
should be removed. The earth fault monitors required for IT networks must
be suitable for operation with power electronic devices (IEC 61557-8).

3.4 Earthing
3.3.3 Screen earth kit

Unscreened cables behave like antennae, i.e. they act as transmitters and
receivers.
For a proper EMC connection, cables emitting interference

(e.g. motor cables) and susceptible cables (analog signal and
measured values) must be screened and laid separately from
each other.
The effectiveness of the cable shielding depends on a good shield connection and a low shield resistance.
Use only shields with tinned or nickel-plated copper braiding.

Braided steel shields are unsuitable.
Control and signal lines (analog, digital) should always be

grounded on one end, in the immediate vicinity of the supply
voltage source (PES).
3.4 Earthing
The protective earth (PE) in the control panel should be connected from the
mains supply to a central earth point (mounting plate, system earth). The PE
conductor's cross-sectional area must be at least as large as that of the
incoming mains supply cable.
Every variable frequency drive must be individually connected to the power
supply system's protective earth directly at the location of installation
(system earthing). This protective earth must not pass through any other
devices.
All protective conductors should be routed in a star topology starting from
the central earth point, and all of the magnet system's conductive components (variable frequency drive, motor choke, motor filter, main choke)
should be connected.
The earth-fault loop impedance must comply with all locally applicable industrial safety regulations. In order to meet UL requirements, UL-listed ring
cable lugs must be used for all earth wiring connections.
56
Avoid ground loops when installing multiple variable frequency

drives in one control panel. Make sure that all metallic devices
that are to be grounded have a broad area connection with the
mounting plate.

3 Installation
3.4 Earthing
3.4.1 Protective earth

This refers to the legally required protective earth for a variable frequency
drive. An earthing terminal on the variable frequency drive, or the system
earth, must be connected to a neighboring steel element in the building
(beam, ceiling joist), an earth electrode in the ground, or a mains earth bus.
The earth points must meet the requirements set forth by the applicable
national and local industrial safety regulations and/or regulations for electrical
systems.
3.4.2 Motor earthing

The motor earth must be connected to one of the earthing terminals on the
variable frequency drive and to a neighboring steel element in the building
(beam, ceiling joist), an earth electrode in the ground, or a mains earth bus.
3.4.3 Earth-fault protection

A fault current to earth can be produced by variable frequency drives due to
their system characteristics. DC1 series variable frequency drives have been
designed in such a way that the smallest possible fault current will be
produced in compliance with standards applicable worldwide. This fault
current must be monitored by a residual current device (RCD, type B).
3.4.4 VAR screw

DC1 series variable frequency drives are equipped with an overvoltage filter
for the input supply voltage that is designed to protect the devices from
noise pulses in the mains voltage. Pulse spikes are typically caused by lightning strikes or by switching operations in other high-power devices on the
same supply.
If high potential tests are performed on a system, these overvoltage
protection components may cause the system to fail the test. In order to
make it possible to perform this type of hipot tests, the overvoltage
protection components can be disconnected by removing the VAR screw
(in DC1--A20N models only). The screw must be screwed back in after the
high potential tests are performed and the test must then be repeated. The
system must then fail the test, indicating that the overvoltage protection
components have been reconnected.
NOTICE
The screw labeled VAR ( Figure 33, page 55) must not be
manipulated as long as the variable frequency drive is
connected to the mains.

3.5.1.3 Covered power terminals

In the case of sizes FS2 and FS3, the DC+/+, DC-, and BR connections will
be covered with plastic covers at the factory. They can be uncovered if
necessary.
NOTICE
Terminal L3 will be covered with a plastic cover on all variable
frequency drives that are powered with a single-phase power
supply (DC1-1D, DC1-12). Do not uncover this terminal!
3.5.1.4 Motor connection cable

The screened cables between the variable frequency drive and the motor
should be as short as possible.
Connect the screening, on both sides and across a large area (360
overlap), to the protective earth (PE). The power screen's ground
connection (PES) should be in the immediate proximity of the variable
frequency drive (screening shield, cable gland) and directly on the motor
terminal box.
Prevent the screening from becoming unbraided, e.g. by pushing the
opened plastic sheath over the end of the screening or with a rubber
grommet on the end of the screening.
Alternatively, in addition to the large-area gland plate, you can also twist
the screen braid at the end and connect it to the protective earth. In
order to prevent EMC interference, this twisted screen connection
should be as short as possible (recommended value for the twisted
cable screen: b 1/5 a).

(recommended value for the twisted cable screen b 1/ a)
In the case of variable frequency drives with an IP20 degree of protection,

the screen braid can be connected (PES) to the ground potential across a
large area inside the control panel, either with a gland plate or after being
twisted. To prevent EMC interference, this twisted screening connection
should be as short as possible.
In the case of direct local installations (IP66), the screen braid can be
connected in a metallic cable gland and connected to the PE using a
connection cable.
Prevent the screen from becoming unbraided at the other end of the control
cable, e.g. by using a rubber grommet. The screen braid must not make
any connection with the protective ground here because this would cause
problems with an interference loop.
3.5.2.2 Control signal terminals

3.5.2.8 Digital Input Signals

Control signal terminals 2, 3, 4, and 6 all have the same function and mode of
operation as digital inputs (DI1 to DI4).
A logic level of +24 V (positive logic) is used:
8 - 30 V = High (logic "1")

0 - 4 V = Low (logic "0")
The internal control voltage from control signal terminal 1 (+24 V, maximum
100 mA) or an external voltage source (+24 V) can be used for this. The
permissible residual ripple must be less than 5 % Ua/Ua.
If you use an external voltage source, make sure to connect the

0-V potentials of the externalvoltage source to the 0-V potentials
of the variable frequency drive.

Optional modules DXC-EXT-IO110 and DXC-EXT-IO230 can be used to optically isolate the digital inputs (DI1 to DI4) and integrate them directly into
control circuits with 110 V / 230 V. Values of 80 to 110/230 V AC will be

3.5.4 Insulation test

The variable frequency drive of the DC1 series are tested, delivered and
require no additional testing.
CAUTION
CAUTION
On the control signal and the connection terminals of the

variable frequency drive, no leakage resistance tests are to be
performed with an insulation tester.
Wait at least 5 minutes after switching the supply voltage off

before you disconnect one of the connection terminals
(L1/L, L2/N, L3, DC-, DC+, BR) of the variable frequency drive.
If insulation testing is required in the power circuit of the PDS, you must
consider the following measures.
3.5.4.1 Testing the motor cable insulation
Disconnect the motor cable from the connection terminals U, V and W of

the variable frequency drive and from the motor (U, V, W). Measure the
insulation resistance of the motor cable between the individual phase
conductors and between the phase conductor and the grounding
conductor.
The insulation resistance must be greater than 1 M.
3.5.4.2 Testing the mains cable insulation
Disconnect the power cable from the mains supply network and from
the connection terminals 1/L, L2/N and L3 of the variable frequency
drive. Measure the insulation resistance of the mains cable between the
individual phase conductors and between each phase conductor and the
protective conductor.
3.5.4.3 Testing the motor insulation
Disconnect the motor cable from the motor (U, V, W) and open the
bridge circuits (star or delta) in the motor terminal box.
Measure the insulation resistance of the individual motor windings. The
measurement voltage must at least match the rated operating voltage of
the motor but is not to exceed 1000 V.
82
Consider the notes from the motor manufacturer in testing the

insulation resistance.

4.3 Commissioning with control signal terminals (default settings)
NOTICE
Any contactors and switching devices on the power side are not
to be opened during motor operation. Inching operation using
the mains contactor is not permitted.
Contactors and switchgear (repair and maintenance switches)
on the motor side must not be opened while the motor is in
operation.
Inching operation of the motor with contactors and switching
devices in the output of the variable frequency drive is not
permitted.
NOTICE
Make sure that there is no danger in starting the motor. Disconnect the driven machine if there is a danger in an incorrect operating state.
If motors are to be operated with frequencies higher than the

standard 50 or 60 Hz, then these operating ranges must be
approved by the motor manufacturer. The motors could be
damaged otherwise.

DC1 variable frequency drives with local controls are configured and wired at
the factory. They can be started directly via the control signal terminals when
the rated motor output for the mains voltage is connected (see the
connecting example below).
You can skip this section if you want to set up the parameters

Connect the variable frequency drive according to the connection

example above for the simple commissioning with the specified default
settings (see connecting example above).
The potentiometer should have a fixed resistance (connection to control

signal terminals 5 and 7) of at least 1 k and up to a maximum of 10 k.
A standard fixed resistance of 4.7 k is recommended.
Make sure that the enable contacts (FWD/REV) are open before switching on
the mains voltage.
If the connections for the setpoint value potentiometer cannot

be clearly allocated with terminals 5, 6 and 7, you should set the
potentiometer to about 50% before giving the start release
(FWD/REV) for the first time.
When the specified supply voltage is applied at the mains connection terminals (L1/L, L2/N, L3), the switched-mode power supply unit (SMPS) in the
internal DC link will be used to generate the control voltage and light up the
7-segment LED display (STOP). At this point, the variable frequency drive will
be ready for operation (correct operating status) and in Stop mode.
The start enable signal is sent by activating one of the digital inputs with
+24 V:
Terminal 1: FWD = Clockwise rotating field (Forward Run)

Terminal 2: REV = Counterclockwise rotating field (Reverse Run)
The FWD and REV control commands are interlocked (exclusive OR) and
require a rising voltage edge.

4 Operation
The frequency is shown with a minus sign with a start release with a left
rotating field (REV).
You can now set the output frequency (0 - 50 Hz) and, as a result, the
speed of the connected three-phase motor (0 - nMotor), by using the
potentiometer via terminal 6 (0 - +10 V proportional voltage signal). The
change in output frequency here is delayed based on the specified acceleration and deceleration ramps. When using the device's default
settings, these times will be set to 5 seconds.
The acceleration and deceleration ramps specify the time change for the
output frequency: from 0 to fmax (WE = 50 Hz) or from fmax back to 0.
Figure on Page 87 shows a good example of the process, if the release
signal (FWD/REV) is switched on and the maximum setpoint voltage (+10 V)
is applied. The speed of the motor follows the output frequency depending
on the load and moment of inertia (slip), from zero to nmax.
If the release signal (FWD, REV) is switched off during operation, the inverter
is blocked immediately (STOP). The motor comes to an uncontrolled stop
(see in Figure).
The acceleration time is set in parameter P-03.

5 Parameters
5.3.1 Parameter Lock

Access to the DC1 variable frequency drive's parameters can be limited in
order to prevent user errors. This option can be used to ensure that only
authorized people will be able to make changes to the parameters.
When the device is running with its default configuration, only the "basic
parameters" will be visible and editable.
Parameter P-14 can be used to make all parameters visible and allow
access to them (P-14 0 = P-37, WE = 101).
Parameter P-37 can be used to change the access code used to access
all parameters. Once you confirm the changes you make to parameter
P-37, the extended parameters will be locked.
Parameter P-38 (P-38 = 1) can be used to block access to all parameters,
with the exception of parameter P-14 (read-only).
You can use the procedure below in order to block access to the parameter
sets (make sure to follow the steps in the order shown!):
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
P-14 = 101 (accesses all parameters with the default settings)

P-37 = 123 (new code)
P-14 = 123 (accesses all parameters with the new code)
P-38 = 1 (changes all parameters to "read-only")
P-14 123 (hides all extended parameters)
If you follow the steps above, only the basic parameters will be visible and it
will not be possible to make any changes to them. To make any changes to
the parameters, it will first be necessary to enter the new access code with
P-14 = 123 and then set parameter P-38 to 0.
5.3.2 Default settings

DC1 variable frequency drives can be restored to their default configuration
by using the following button combination: + + Stop button. When
using this combination, hold down the buttons for two seconds until "P-dEf"
is shown on the display.
The fault log (P-13) and the monitor log will not be restored to
their default settings when the parameters are reset!

Figure 61: Digital and analog inputs
The operation of the DC1 variable frequency drive's via control signal terminals (P-12 = 0, P-15 = 5) is active with factory settings:
DI1 (control signal terminal 2): FWD (Start enable clockwise rotating
field)
DI2 (control signal terminal 3): REV (Start enable anti-clockwise rotating
field)
DI3/AI2 (control signal terminal 4): FF1 (fixed frequency 1= P-20;
WE = 15 Hz)
AI1/DI4 (control signal terminal 6): analog setpoint input (0 - 10 V)
When control control signal terminal 2 (FWD) and control signal terminal 3
(REV) are activated at the same time, a dec2 (P2-24) quick stop will be
activated.
In the case of variable frequency drives with local controls (DC1--A6SN),
the FWD switch position will drive DI1 and the REV switch position will
drive DI2.

The defined acceleration (P-03) and deceleration times (P-04)

apply for all changes to the frequency reference value.
If the start-release (FWD, REV) is switched off, the output
frequency (fOut) is immediately set to zero. The motor runs down
uncontrolled. If a controlled run-down is requested (with value
from P-04), parameter P-05 must be 0.
Starting friction and load inertia can lead to longer acceleration
times for the drive than those configured in P-03. Large gyrating
masses and the load being driven can lead to longer deceleration
times for the drive than that configured in P-04.

6.3.3 U/f characteristic curve

The inverter in the DC1 variable frequency drive works with sinusoidal pulse
width modulation (PWM). The IGBTs are switched with two control methods
based on V/Hz control:
U/f (P-10 = 0)
Frequency control (Hz),

Parallel Connection of several motors,
Large power difference (PFU >> PMotor),
Switching in the output.
U/f with slip compensation (P-10 > 0)

Speed control (min-1, rpm) with slip compensation,
Single operation (only one motor),
maximum one power rating smaller PFU > PMotor,
High torque (requirement: exact motor data for the motor model).
The U/f-characteristic curve (voltage/frequency characteristic curve) designates a control process for the variable frequency drive, with which the
motor voltage is controlled in a certain ratio to the frequency. If the voltage/
frequency ratio is constant (linear characteristic curve), the magnetizing flux
and the torque curve of the connected motor is virtually constant.
In a standard application, the benchmark values for the V/Hz characteristic
curve match the rated operational data of the connected motor (see the
motor's rating plate):
Output voltage P-28 = Nominal motor voltage P-07

Cut-off frequency P-29 = Rated motor frequency P-09 = Maximum

The rating data of the U/f-characteristic curve is assigned automatically and corresponds with the values of parameter P-07

6.3.4 Speed behavior without slip compensation

On the constant three-phase AC supply, the three-phase asynchronous
motor has a constant rotor speed (n1, P-10, rating plate specifications)
according to the number of pole pairs and mains frequency. The slip here
represents the difference between the rotating field of the stator and that of
the rotor. In static operation, the slip is constant.
Load changes () at the motor shaft cause a larger slip (n) and thus a
reduced rotor speed ().
In controlled operation (V/F characteristic curve), the variable frequency drive
cannot compensate this load-related speed difference. The speed behavior
of the motor corresponds to that of a motor in a constant AC supply system.

6.3.5 Speed behavior with slip compensation

In the control mode (V/Hz with slip compensation, P-10 > 0), the variable
frequency drive can compensate for fluctuations caused by the load's
characteristics. To do this, the internal motor model uses the measured
voltage and current values of the stator winding (u1, i1) to calculate the
required manipulated values for flux variable i and torque variable iw. In the
three-phase motor's equivalent circuit diagram, the load-related slip is shown
as resistor R2/s. During no-load operation, this resistance approaches
infinity, and approaches zero as the load increases.

the load-related slip deviations.

resulting speed reduction is compensated by an increase in the output

6.4 Braking
6.4 Braking
Various braking functions can be configured:
DC braking,
Generative braking (brake chopper),
Mechanical braking (actuation).
The brake functions allow you to reduce undesired coasting and long
coasting times. Mechanical braking also ensures safe operating states.
6.4.1 DC-braking
With DC braking, the variable frequency drive supplies the three-phase stator
winding of the three-phase motor with DC current. This generates a
stationary magnetic field which induces a voltage in the rotor while the rotor
is in motion. As the electrical resistance of the rotor is very low, even small
induction can generate high rotor currents and thus a strong braking effect.
As the speed slows down, the frequency of the induced voltage and with it
the inductive resistance drops. The resistive load becomes more effective
and increases the braking effect.
DC braking is not suitable for holding loads or for intermediate

braking. Nor for intermediate braking.
NOTICE
DC braking will cause increased motor heating. Accordingly,
make sure to configure a braking torque that is as low as
possible using the voltage amplification (P-11) and braking
duration (P-32) parameters.

6.4 Braking
6.4.2 Regenerative braking

If the rotor of an asynchronous motor is driven oversynchronously in the
operating direction of the rotating field, it generates electric power via its
stator windings. The motor then becomes a generator. In the variable
frequency drive, this generative energy causes an increase in the DC link
voltage. Oversynchronous speeds occur, for example, when the output
frequency in variable frequency drive operation is reduced with short deceleration times, the connected machine has a large flywheel mass or when the
flowing medium in pumps and fans works against the speed reduction.
The increase in the DC link voltage is monitored by the DC1 variable
frequency drive and always enables a braking torque of approx. 30% of the
rated motor torque. A higher braking torque can be achieved with a more
powerful variable frequency drive. A braking chopper is integrated into DC1
variable frequency drives with a size of FS2 or bigger. When used in conjunction with an external high-capacity resistor, this brake chopper makes it
possible to achieve braking torques of up to 100% of the rated motor torque.
The braking chopper will be activated at a DC link voltage of 390 V or higher
in DC1-x2 part nos. and 780 V or higher in DC1-34 part nos. If the voltage
falls down to 378 V in DC1-x2 part nos. / 756 V in DC1-34 part nos., the
braking chopper will be deactivated. The external braking resistance is
connected via terminals DC+ and BR.

The brake chopper can be activated in parameter P-34. This function is only
available in variable frequency drives of size FS2 and FS3.
In variable frequency drives without a braking transistor,

parameter P-34 has no function.
If the DX-BR-100 integrated braking resistance is being used,

parameter P-34 should be set to 1.
If an external braking resistance is being used, parameter P-34
should be set to 2 and the braking resistance should be
protected externally.

P-02 (fmin) - P-01 (fmax)

The skip frequency function is used to prevent the variable frequency
drive from being run at a specific output frequency, e.g. at a frequency
that will cause mechanical resonance in a specific machine.
Parameter P-27 is used to define the center of the skip frequency band
and is used together with parameter P-26. The output frequency will
run through the specified band at the speeds set in P-03 or P-04 without
holding an output frequency that falls within the defined band.
If the frequency reference value applied to the variable frequency drive
falls within the band, the output frequency will remain at the upper or
lower limit of the band.

The start enable signal is issued with a continuous signal at control signal
terminal 2 (DI1); the operating direction (FWD or REV) is selected with
control signal terminal 6 (DI4).
The frequency reference value can then be increased with a pulse on
terminal 3 (DI2) (UP). The acceleration will be based on the time set in
P-03 (acc1) and go all the way to just under the maximum output frequency
set in P-01.
Parameter P-31 is used to define the behavior of the variable frequency drive
in the event of a restart:
P-31 = 2: The variable frequency drive will start off from the minimum
frequency (P-02).
P-31 = 3: The variable frequency drive will store the set value and start
from the previously set frequency reference value.
The frequency reference value set here will be retained even after the
supply voltage is switched off.
Control signal terminal 4 (DI3) can be used to reduce the configured

frequency reference value of the motor potentiometer (DOWN). The deceleration will take place using the time set in P-04 (dec1) all the way to 0 Hz if a
minimum frequency has not been set in P-02.

8 Modbus RTU
8.1 General
8 Modbus RTU
8.1 General
Modbus is a centrally polled bus system in which a so-called master (PLC)
controls the entire data transfer on the bus. Internode communication
between the individual modules (slaves) is not possible.
Every single data transfer operation is initiated by the master with a request.
Only one request can be sent on the cable at a time.
Slaves are not able to initiate transfers, and are only able to respond to
requests.
Two types of dialog are possible between master and slave:
The master sends a request to a slave and waits for a response.

The master sends a request to all slaves and does not wait for a
response (broadcast).

Figure 84: Modbus network with DC1
The figure shows a typical setup with a host computer (master) and any
number (a maximum of 63 modules) of DC1 variable frequency drives
(slaves) . Each variable frequency drive has a unique address on the network.
Addresses are assigned individually to each DC1 variable frequency drive
with the P-36 parameter and are independent of their physical connection
(position) within the network.

8.1 General
8.1.2 COM Port

The electrical connection between the master and the slaves is established
with RJ45 cables. If you use multiple slaves, they will need to be connected
in parallel by using RJ45 cables and splitters.
The DC1 variable frequency drive built-in RJ45 port supports the Modbus
RTU protocol and therefore allows a direct network connection without an
additional interface module. The network cable must be provided at each
physical end (last station) with a bus termination resistor of 120 in order to
prevent signal reflections and the resulting transfer errors.
EASY-NT-R resistors can be plugged into the splitter version.

8.3 Operating mode Modbus RTU

The Modbus RTU (Remote Terminal Unit) operating mode transmits data in
binary format (higher data throughput) and defines the transfer format for
data requests and data responses.
Each message byte that is sent will contain two hexadecimal characters
(0 - 9, A - F).
The data transfer between a master (PLC) and the DC1 variable frequency
drive is carried out according to the following sequence:
Master request: the master sends a Modbus frame to the variable

frequency drive.
Slave response: the variable frequency drive sends a Modbus frame as a
response to the master.

8 Modbus RTU
8.3.1 Structure of the master request

8.3.1.1 Address
P-36 is used to enter the address (1 to 63) of the variable frequency drive
to which the request is being sent. Only the variable frequency drive
with this address can respond to the request.
Address 0 is used as a so-called Broadcast (message to all bus users)
from the master. In this mode, individual modules cannot be addressed
and data cannot be output from the slaves.
8.3.1.2 Function code

The function code defines the type of message. The following actions can be
performed in the case of DC1 variable frequency drives:
Function code [hex]
Designation
Description
03
Read Holding Registers
Reading of the holding registers in the slave (process

data, parameters, configuration).
A master request enables up to 11 registers to be read.
06
Write Single Register
Writing of a holding register in the slave.

With a general telegram (Broadcast) the appropriate
holding registers are written in all slaves. The register
is read back for comparison.
8.3.1.3 Data
The length of the data block (data: N x 1 bytes) depends on the function
code. The function code is made up of two hexadecimal values and has a
range of 00 to FF. The data block contains additional information for the slave
that will enable the latter to perform the operation specified by the master in
the function code (this information may specify the parameters that need to
be processed, for example).
8.3.1.4 Cyclic redundancy check (CRC)

Frames in the Modbus RTU operating mode include a cyclic redundancy
check (CRC). The CRC field is made up of two bytes that contain a binary
16-bit value. The CRC check is always run independently of the parity check
for the individual characters of the telegram. The CRC result is appended to
the frame by the master. While receiving the frame, the slave performs a
new calculation and compares the calculated value to the actual value in the
CRC field. If both values are not identical, an error is set.
140
12/13 MN04020003Z-EN
www.eaton.com
8 Modbus RTU
8.3.2 Structure of the slave response

8.3.2.1 Required transfer time
The time between receiving a request from the master and the response
of the variable frequency drive is at least 3.5 characters (rest time).
Once the master has received a response from the variable frequency
drive, it must wait for at least the rest time before it can send a new
request.
8.3.2.2 Normal slave response
If the master request contains a write register function

(function code 06), the variable frequency drive immediately
returns the request as a response.
If the master request contains a read register function
(function code 03), the variable frequency drive returns the read data
with the slave address and the function code as a response.
8.3.2.3 No slave response

In the following cases, the variable frequency drive ignores the request and
does not send a reply:
on receiving a broadcast request.

if the request contains a transmission error.
If the slave address in the request does not match the variable frequency
drive's address.
with a CRC or parity error.
If the time interval between the messages is less
than 3.5. characters.
The master must be programmed to repeat the request if it

does not receive a response within a specified time.

9.2 System overview

The DC1 variable frequency drive's CANopen slaves are integrated into a
CANopen fieldbus system.
Figure 88: Integration into a CANopen network

a Master section, PLC (e. g.: XC100, XC200) or PC with CANopen card
b Slave area: Variable frequency drives with CANopen interface
The RJ45 plug makes it possible to connect DC1 variable frequency drives to
a CANopen communications network. The CiA DS-301 CANopen communication profile documents the "How" of communications.
The CANopen communications protocol draws a distinction between
process data objects (PDOs) and service data objects (SDOs).
The variable frequency drive is controlled with fast, cyclic process data
(PDOs). The process data channel can be used not only to specify the speed
setpoint, but also to trigger various drive functions, such as enables, operating directions, and resets. At the same time, it can also be used to read
actual values, such as the actual speed, current, and device status, from the
variable frequency drive. As a general rule, the variable frequency drive's
parameters are configured using SDOs. The parameter data channel makes it
possible to store all application-related drive parameters in the higher-level
controller and transfer them to the variable frequency drive if necessary. All
of the variable frequency drive's parameters can be transferred with
CANopen by using the appropriate SDOs/PDOs.

9.2.1 COM Port

The electrical connection between the master and the slaves is established
with RJ45 cables. If you use multiple slaves, they will need to be connected
in parallel by using RJ45 cables and DX-SPL-RJ45-2SL1PL splitters. Please
note that the stub lines should be as short as possible.
The DC1 variable frequency drive's built-in RJ45 port supports the CANopen
protocol, making it possible to establish a direct network connection without
the need for an additional interface module. A bus termination resistor with a
resistance of 120 needs to be connected at each physical end (last
module) of the network cable in order to prevent signal reflections and the
associated transfer errors.

The baud rate is set using parameter P-50 ( Page 226). It must be set
to the same value for all the communication modules on the CANopen bus.
The baud rate for DC1 variable frequency drives can be set to a value
between 125 and 1,000 kBit/s.
The maximum cable length will depend on the baud rate you use.

Every CANopen module needs a unique address (node ID) within the
CANopen structure. All node IDs must be unique within the entire bus
structure. A maximum of 127 addresses (1 to 127) can be assigned within a
CANopen structure.
Parameter P-36 is used to set the CANopen address in DC1 variable

9.2 System overview
Difference between P-12 = 7 and P-12 = 8
P-12 = 7
If parameter P-12 is set to a value of 7, both the setpoint value and the
command will be provided via CAN; meanwhile, the ramp times will
have to be set using parameters P-03 and P-04.
P-12 = 8
If parameter P-12 is set to a value of 8, the DC1 variable frequency drive
will behave the same way as with P-12 = 7, except when it comes to the
ramp times. Ramp times will now be cyclically transmitted instead.
When the device is running with its default configuration, the ramp time
will be the third word in the first receive PDO. The corresponding value
will be scaled by a factor of 0.01.
Example: 500 5.00 s

There are four different transmission options available for selection in DC1
variable frequency drives.

9.3.1 EDS file
DC1 variable frequency drives can be integrated into a CANopen structure by
using a standardized EDS file (Eatn1000100.eds). This EDS (EDS = Electronic
Data Sheet) file describes the functionality of a CANopen device in machinereadable format. EDS files list all objects, the supported baud rates, the
manufacturer, and other information as well.
The latest version of the EDS file will be included in the CD-ROM enclosed
with every DC1 variable frequency drive.
It can also be downloaded from Eaton's website at:
http://www.eaton.com/moeller Support
The object dictionary contains all the objects corresponding to a CANopen
module. Objects are used to map a device's functionality/parameters. They
are accessed with SDOs or PDOs. As per the corresponding specification,
the object dictionary is subdivided into the following ranges:

10.1 Introduction
DC1 series variable frequency drives come with several internal monitoring
functions. When a deviation from the correct operating state is detected, an
error message will be displayed; in the inverter's default settings, the relay
contact will open (control signal terminals 10 and 11).
10.2 Error Messages

The most recent four error messages will be stored in the order in which
they occurred (with the most recent one in the first place). Error messages
can be read from parameter P-13.
10.2.1 Acknowledge error message (Reset)

To acknowledge and reset the current error message, you can either
switch off the supply voltage or press the STOP pushbutton. Error messages
(a maximum of four) are stored in parameter P-13.
Error messages can also be reset with an additional positive edge at control
signal terminal 2/DI1 or 3/DI2 (new start signal).
10.2.2 Fault log

The fault log (P-13) stores the most recent four error messages in the order
in which they occurred. The most recent error message will always be
shown as the first value when P-13 is accessed. To see the remaining error
messages one after the other, press the (Up) button. Their order will be
indicated by means of flashing dots in the 7-segment digital display
assembly.
The values in the fault log (P-13) will not be deleted if the
variable frequency drive is reset to its default settings!

Motor with constant speed: Determine the overload or fault.

Motor starts: The load stalled or has seized.
Check whether there is a star/delta motor
wiring error.
Motor accelerates/decelerates: The excessively
short acceleration/deceleration time is
requiring too much power. If P-03 or P-04 cannot
be increased, a more powerful variable
frequency drive is required.

and motor.
04
I.t-trF
Thermal motor overload
The DC1 variable frequency drive was

switched off after more than 100 % of
the value set in P-08 was delivered for
a period of time.
Check whether the decimal places are flashing

(variable frequency drive overloaded) and either
raise the acceleration ramp (P-03) or reduce the
motor load.
Make sure that the cable length matches the
variable frequency drive specifications.
Check the load mechanically in order to make
sure that it is free, that nothing is getting
jammed or locked, and there are no other
mechanical faults.

Figure 94: DC1-S
Starting the motor properly requires a special method. The variable

frequency drive will start the motor directly with the motor's rated operational frequency (P-32), while the voltage, starting from the boost start
voltage (P-11), will be increased to the motor's rated operational voltage
(P-07) within the boost time (P-33) period.
After the boost start process, the variable frequency drive will start adjusting
the motor's speed by changing the output frequency.
The curves in figure 95 below show how this function works.

11 Annex
Follow the steps below in order to obtain a reliable start:
1. Connect the motor to the variable frequency drive correctly.
2. Set the motor's rated operational voltage (P-07) and the rated motor
current (P-08) correctly (see the information on the nameplate).
3. Open the extended parameter set with P-14 = 101.
4. Set boost time P-33 to its maximum value of 150 s.
5. Start the variable frequency drive and have the display show the motor
current (to do this, press the OK button until "A x.x" is shown).
6. About 3 to 5 seconds after the unit starts, compare the motor current
with the rated motor current. Then follow the scenario that applies:
a) The motor current is less than 80% of the rated motor current:
Stop the variable frequency drive

Increase the value in P-11
Repeat, starting from step 5
b) The motor current is more than 90% of the rated motor current:
Check to make sure that once the boost start voltage is set correctly,
the current falls between 80% and 90% of the rated motor current
about 3 to 5 seconds after the unit starts.
Now reduce boost time P-33 in the direction of the value required for the
motor start. The ideal boost time will be a few seconds longer than the
time for the motor start.
186
Stop the variable frequency drive

Reduce the value in P-11
Repeat, starting from step 5

frequency drives, please refer to instructional leaflets

11.11 Cables and fuses

Select all the cross-sectional cable areas and cable protection fuses that you
will be using in such a way as to comply with all applicable local standards.
For an installation in accordance with UL Standards, the fuses and copper
cable that are UL-approved and have a heat-resistance of +60/75 C are to be
used.
Use power cables with insulation according to the specified mains voltages
for the permanent installation. A screened cable is not required on the mains
side. On the motor side however, a complete (360), low-impedance,
screened cable is necessary.
The length of the motor cable depends on the RFI class.
NOTICE
When selecting fuses and cables, make sure to always comply
with all the regulations that apply at the installation site.

11.13 EMC cable brackets
11.13 EMC cable brackets

DX-EMC-MNT- cable brackets can be used to route and secure cables in a
DC1 variable frequency drive's connection area. These cable brackets are
mounted on the variable frequency drive's mains connection and motor sides
and are then connected to the drive's ground connection.
The cable brackets' integrated hole pattern (M4 screw tread) makes it
possible to secure the cables being connected and relieve any strain on them
by using the corresponding gland plates. It also makes it possible to have a
360 EMC connection (PES) in the case of screened cables.
These cable brackets are made of galvanized sheet steel.
Figure 116: DX-EMC-MNT-1N (left) and DX-EMC-MNT-1M (right) cable brackets
For more information and technical data on DX-EMC-MNT-

EMC cable brackets, please refer to instructional leaflet
IL040010ZU.
DX-EMC-MNT- EMC cable brackets are sold as individual

units. There are different brackets for each DC1 variable
frequency drive size (FS1, FS2, and FS3).
The gland plates and their fixing screws are included in the
equipment supplied with the cable brackets.

11.14 Radio interference suppression filter

The DX-EMC1 and DX-EMC3 external radio interference suppression
filters can be used to further limit emitted interference (EMC) in the relevant
environment. The ability to stay within the permissible limits (category C1,
C2, C3) in the 1st environment (public grid) or 2nd environment (industrial
supply network) will depend on the motor cable length and on switching
frequency fPWM of the inverter in the DC1 variable frequency drive.
L0AD
LINE
Figure 117: Radio interference suppression filter
The DX-EMC1 and DX-EMC3 radio interference suppression filters must only be used together with the recommended
DC1-N variable frequency drives (which do not have an integrated radio interference suppression filter).
In the case of variable frequency drives with an internal radio interference suppression filter, theEMC screw must be used instead.
The radio interference suppression filters can be mounted side by side with
the variable frequency drives without any lateral clearance between them.
The connection must be made on the mains side (LINE) using screw
terminals L and N in DX-EMC12- devices and terminals L1, L2, L3 in
DX-EMC-34 devices. The variable frequency drives need to be connected
to the screw terminals labeled LOAD.
The PE connection needs to be made using the stud marked with a grounding
symbol. The radio interference suppression filters have low leakage currents.
The rated value at 50 Hz with mains voltage fluctuations of 10% is < 3.00 mA
for DX-EMC1 devices and < 0.40 mA for DX-EMC3 devices.

11.15 Braking resistances

Braking resistances convert the mechanical braking energy produced during
extended periods of dynamic operation or when braking large moments of
inertia into heat.
Braking resistances can be connected to terminals BR and DC+ on DC1 variable frequency drives with a size of FS2 or FS3.
11.15.1 DX-BR3-100
Braking resistance DX-BR-100 can be installed directly inside the heat sink in
FS2 and FS3 DC1 variable frequency drives.
Figure 118: Braking resistance DX-BR3-100
For detailed instructions on how to install the braking resistance,

please refer to instructional leaflet IL0412024ZU.
NOTICE
Do not install braking resistance DX-BR-100 unless the system
is de-energized first!

11.16 Mains chokes
11.16 Mains chokes

Allocating the mains chokes is done according to the rated input currents of
the variable frequency drive (without upstream main choke).
Figure 120: main chokes DEX-LN
When the variable frequency drive is running at its rated current

limit, the mains choke with a uK value of around 4% will cause
the variable frequency drive's maximum possible output voltage
(U2) to be reduced to about 96% of the mains voltage (ULN).
Mains chokes reduce the magnitude of the current harmonics

up to about 30 % and increase the lifespan of variable frequency
drives and upstream-connected switching devices.

11.18 Sine filter
Figure 124: Sine filter DX-SIN3
The DX-SIN3 sine filter removes high-frequency components from the variable frequency drive's output voltage (U2). This reduces the conducted and
radiated emission. The sine filter's output voltage has a sine wave shape
with a small superimposed ripple voltage.
The sinusoidal voltage's total harmonic distortion is typically 5 to 10%. This
reduces noise and losses in the motor.
