1.6.1 Electrical Installation in General

All cabling must comply with national and local regulations on cable cross-sections and ambient temperature. Copper
conductors are required. 75 °C (167 °F) is recommended. For TR170 drives operating in ambients over 50 °C (122 °F), copper
conductors rated 80 °C (176 °F) or higher are recommended.

1.9.1 Short Circuit and Overcurrent Trips

The frequency converter is protected against short circuits with current measurement in each of the 3 motor phases or in
the DC link. A short circuit between 2 output phases causes an overcurrent in the inverter. The inverter turns off the IGBTs
individually when the short-circuit current exceeds the permitted value (Alarm 16 Trip Lock).

Troubleshooting

4.4 Visual Inspection


Visually inspect the conditions in Table 4.1 as part of any initial troubleshooting procedure.

Inspect for Description


Auxiliary equipment • Look if more auxiliary equipment, switches, disconnects, or input fuses/circuit breakers reside on the
input power side of frequency converter or output side to motor.

• Examine operation and condition of these items as possible causes for operational faults.

4 4 • Check function and installation of pressure sensors or encoders, and other equipment used for
feedback to the frequency converter.

Cable routing • Avoid routing motor wiring, AC line wiring, and signal wiring in parallel. If parallel routing is
unavoidable, maintain a separation of 150–200 mm (6–8 inches) between the cables or separate them
with a grounded conductive partition.

• Avoid routing cables through free air.

Control wiring • Check for broken or damaged wires and connections.

• Check the voltage source of the signals. Though not always necessary depending on the installation
conditions, the use of screened cable or a twisted pair is recommended.

• Ensure that the screen is terminated correctly.

Frequency converter cooling Check operational status of all cooling fans:


• When voltage is applied to the frequency converter, the fan activates for a few seconds.

• Check for blockage or constrained air passages.

Frequency converter display The display shows important items, such as:
• Warnings.

• Alarms.

• Frequency converter status.

• Fault history.

Frequency converter interior • Check that the frequency converter interior is free of:
- Dirt.

- Metal chips.

- Moisture.
- Corrosion.

• Check for burnt or damaged power components, or carbon deposits that are the result of a
catastrophic component failure.

• Check for cracks or breaks in the housings of power semiconductors, or pieces of broken component
housings, which are loose inside the unit.

EMC considerations • Check for proper installation regarding electromagnetic capability.

• Refer to the frequency converter operating instructions and this chapter for further details.

Environmental conditions • Under specific conditions, these units can be operated within a maximum ambient of 50 °C (122 °F).

• Humidity levels must be less than 95% non-condensing.

• Check for harmful airborne contaminates such as sulfur-based compounds.

GLCP • If supplied, check that the GLCP is correctly installed, and that the display is lit when powered on.

Grounding • The frequency converter requires a dedicated ground wire from its enclosure to the building ground.
It is also suggested to ground the motor to the frequency converter enclosure.

• The use of conduit or mounting of the frequency converter to a metal surface is not considered to
be suitable grounding.

• Check for good ground connections that are tight and free of oxidation.

Inspect for Description


Input power wiring Check for:
• Loose connections.

• Proper fusing.

• Blown fuses.

Memory module • Check that the memory module is plugged in correctly.

Motor • Check nameplate ratings of the motor.

• Ensure that motor ratings coincide with frequency converters. 4 4


• Ensure that the frequency converter motor parameters (parameter 1-20 Motor Power to
parameter 1-25 Motor Nominal Speed) are set according to motor ratings.

Output to motor wiring Check for:


• Loose connections.

• Switching components in output circuit.

• Faulty contacts in switch gear.

PROFIBUS option • Check that the option is mounted correctly on the control card.

Programming Ensure that frequency converter parameter settings are correct according to:
• Motor.

• Application.

• I/O configuration.

Proper clearance The frequency converter requires top and bottom clearance adequate to ensure proper air flow for
cooling in accordance with the frequency converter size. When the heat sink is exposed at the rear of
the frequency converter, mount the frequency converter on a flat, solid surface.
Vibration • Check for exposure to an unusual amount of vibration.

• When the frequency converter experiences a high level of vibration, ensure solid mounting or use
shock mounts.

5.2.5 Sources of EMI

Modern frequency converters (see Illustration 5.1) utilize fast-switching electronic devices to generate the modulated output
voltage waveform necessary for accurate motor control. These devices rapidly switch the fixed DC-link voltage creating a
variable frequency, and variable voltage PWM waveform. This high rate of voltage change [dU/dt] is the primary source of
the frequency converter generated EMI.

The high rate of voltage change caused by the IGBT switching creates high frequency EMI.

Test Procedures

6.4.6 Output Imbalance of Motor Supply


Voltage Test

Check the balance of the output voltage and current to


measure the electrical functioning between the frequency
converter and the motor. In testing the phase-to-phase
output, both voltage and current are monitored. Conduct
static tests on the inverter section of the frequency
converter before this procedure.

converters with diode modules. If the output current and the voltage are unbalanced, it
indicates that the frequency converter is not working
properly. It could be the result of a defective power card or
an improper connection of the output circuitry.

NOTICE
Use an analog voltmeter for monitoring output voltage.
Digital voltmeters are sensitive to waveform and
switching frequencies and commonly return erroneous
readings.

Test Procedures

6.5 Initial Start-up Or After Repair Drive


Tests
Perform these tests under the following conditions:
• Starting a frequency converter for the first time.
• Approaching a frequency converter that is
suspected of being faulty.
• After repair of the frequency converter.
Following this procedure ensures that all circuitry in the
frequency converter is functioning properly before putting
it into operation.
1. Perform visual inspection procedures as described
in Table 4.1.

6 6 2. Perform static test procedures to ensure that the


frequency converter is safe to start.
3. Disconnect motor cables from output terminals
(U, V, W) of the frequency converter.
4. Apply AC power to frequency converter.
5. Give the frequency converter a run command and
slowly increase reference (speed command) to
approximately 40 Hz.
6. Use an analog voltmeter or a DVM capable of
measuring true RMS to measure phase-to-phase
output voltage on all 3-phases: U to V, U to W, V
to W. All voltages must be balanced within 8 V. If
measuring unbalanced voltage, refer to
chapter 6.4.6 Output Imbalance of Motor Supply
Voltage Test.
7. Stop the frequency converter and remove input
power. Wait for the discharge time listed in
Table 1.1 to allow DC capacitors to discharge fully.
8. Reconnect motor cables to frequency converter
output terminals (U, V, W).
9. Reapply power and restart the frequency
converter. Adjust motor speed to a nominal level.
10. Set load to 50%.
11. Using a clamp-on ammeter, measure output
current on each output phase. All currents must
be balanced.
12. The correct measurement is 50% rated current.
