Torque characteristics (typical graphs)
The graphs below define the continuous and transient overtorque available, either on a self-ventilated or force-ventilated
motor. The only difference is in the ability of the motor to provide a high continuous torque at less than half the nominal
speed.

Special uses
Use with a motor with a power different to the speed controller rating
The device can supply any motor with a power less than that for which it is designed.
For motor powers slightly greater than the speed controller rating, ensure that the current taken does not exceed the
continuous output current of the controller.
Connecting motors in parallel
The speed controller rating must be greater than or equal to the sum of the currents of the motors to be connected to this
speed controller.
In this case, external thermal protection must be provided for each motor by thermistors or thermal overload relays.
If the number of motors connected in parallel is greater than or equal to 3, it is recommended that a 3-phase choke be
installed between the controller and the motors.
Switching the motor on the speed controller output
Switching is possible with the controller locked or unlocked. When switching on the fly (controller unlocked), the motor
is controlled and accelerates smoothly to the reference speed according to the acceleration ramp.
This use requires automatic catching a spinning load ("catch on the fly") to be configured and the “motor phase failure”
protection to be disabled.
Example : opening of the downstream contactor

t2 : acceleration with ramp
Typical applications : safety break on controller output, bypass function, switching of motors connected in parallel.
(1) For powers ≤ 250 W, derating is less (20 % instead of 50 % at very low frequency).
(2) The nominal frequency of the motor and the maximum output frequency can be adjusted from 40 to 400 Hz.
Caution: check with the manufacturer for the mechanical overspeed capabilities of the selected motor.

Presentation
These chokes provide improved protection against overvoltages on the line supply and to reduce harmonic distortion of
the current produced by the speed controller.
The recommended chokes limit the line current.
They have been designed to comply with standard EN 50178 (VDE 0160 level 1 high-energy overvoltages on the line
supply).
The choke values are defined for a voltage drop of between 3 and 5 % of the nominal line supply voltage. A higher value
may cause a loss of torque.
The use of line chokes is particularly recommended in the following cases :
i Line supply with significant disturbance from other equipment (interference, overvoltages)
i Line supply with a voltage imbalance between phases > 1.8 % of the nominal voltage
i Speed controller supplied by a line with very low impedance (close to transformers which are more than 10 times more
powerful than the speed controller rating)
The prospective short-circuit current at the speed controller connection point should not exceed the maximum value
given in the reference table. The use of chokes enables the following line supplies to be connected :
Isc max. 22 kA for 200/240 V ; Isc max. 65 kA for 380/500 V
i Installation of a large number of frequency inverters on the same line
i Reduction of overload in cos ϕ power factor correction capacitors, if the installation has a power factor correction
installed

Function
The Altivar 28 incorporates radio interference suppression input filters to comply with the EMC "products" standards IEC
1800-3 and EN 61800-3. Compliance with these standards meets the requirements of the European directive on EMC.
The additional filters meet the strictest requirements : they are designed to reduce conducted emissions on the line supply
to below the limits of standards EN 55011 class A (1) or EN 55022 class B.
These additional filters are mounted behind the ATV-28H speed controllers. The filters have tapped holes for mounting
the speed controller in front.
Use according to the type of supply
These additional filters can only be used on TN type (connected to neutral) and TT type (neutral to earth) supplies.
Standard IEC 1800-3, appendix D2.1, states that, for type IT (impedance earthed or isolated neutral) supplies, the filters
may prevent the earth leakage detectors from working reliably.
In addition, the effectiveness of the additional filters on this type of supply depends on the type of impedance between
neutral and earth and is therefore not recommended.
In the case of a machine which must be installed on an IT supply, the solution is to insert an isolation transformer and
operate the machine locally on a TN or TT supply.

Special precautions for mounting ATV-28H speed controllers in enclosures
Follow the mounting recommendations on the facing page.

In order to ensure that air circulates freely in the speed controller :
- Provide ventilation grilles.
- Ensure there is sufficient ventilation, otherwise install forced ventilation with a filter. The vents and/or the fans which may
be fitted should provide an air flow at least as good as that of the speed controller fans (see below).
- Use special IP 54 filters.
- Remove the cover from the upper part of the speed controller.
Fan air flow according to speed controller rating

Dust and damp proof metal wall-fixing or floor-standing enclosure (degree of protection IP 54)
It is necessary to mount the speed controller in a dust and damp proof enclosure in certain environmental conditions :
dust, corrosive gas, high humidity with the risk of condensation and dripping water, splashing liquids, etc.
This arrangement enables the speed controller to be used in an enclosure where the maximum internal temperature can
reach 50 °C.
Calculating the dimensions of the enclosure
Maximum thermal resistance Rth (°C/W)
θ = maximum temperature in the enclosure in °C

θ° – θe
Rth = –––––– θe = maximum external temperature in °C
P P = total power dissipated in the enclosure in W
Power dissipated by the speed controller : see page 14.

Add the power dissipated by the other components of the device.
Effective exchange surface area of the enclosure S (m2)

(sides + top + front panel, in the case of a wall-mounted unit)
K
S = –––– K = thermal resistance on the enclosure surface area
Rth
For metal enclosure : K = 0.12 with internal fan, K = 0.15 without fan.
Warning : Do not use insulated enclosures, because of their low conductivity.
Mounting recommendations for ready-assembled ATV-28E speed controllers
Install the unit vertically, at ± 10°.

Do not place it close to heating elements.

Leave sufficient free space to ensure that the air required
for cooling purposes can circulate from the bottom to the

Principle
i Earth connections between speed controller, motor and cable shielding must have "high frequency" equipotentiality.
i Use shielded cables with shielding connected to earth for a complete 360 o at both ends of the motor cable, braking
resistor (if used) and control-command cables. Conduit or metal ducting can be used for part of the shielding, provided
that there is no break in continuity.
i Ensure maximum separation between the power supply cable (line supply) and the motor cable.

3 Non-shielded power supply wires or cables.
4 Non-shielded wires for the output of the fault relay contacts.
5 Attachment and connection to earth of the shielding of cables 6, 7 and 8 as close as possible to the speed controller :
- Strip the shielding
- Use cable clamps of an appropriate size to clamp the shielding to the mounting plate 1 tight enough to ensure good
contact.
- Types of clamp : stainless steel
6 Shielded cable for connecting the motor, shielding connected to earth at both ends. This shielding must be unbroken,
and if there are intermediate terminals, they must be in EMC shielded metal boxes.
7 Shielded cable for connecting the control/command. For applications which require a large number of conductors,
small cross-sections must be used (0.5 mm 2).
The shielding must be connected to earth at both ends. This shielding must be unbroken, and if there are intermediate
terminals, they must be in EMC shielded metal boxes.
8 Shielded cable for connecting the braking resistor, if used. The shielding must be connected to earth at both ends. This
shielding must be unbroken, and if there are intermediate terminals, they must be in EMC shielded metal boxes.
9 Earth screw for the motor cable on low power drives, as the screw on the heatsink is inaccessible.
Note :
1 Although there is a high frequency equipotential earth connection between the speed controller, the motor and the cable
shielding, it is still necessary to connect the PE protective conductors (green-yellow) to the appropriate terminals on each
of the devices.
2 If an additional input filter is used, it is mounted behind the speed controller and connected directly to the line supply
by an unshielded cable. Connection 3 is then made using the filter cable.

Automatic adaptation of the deceleration ramp
Function :
Automatic adaptation of the deceleration ramp time, if the initial setting is too short given the inertia of the load. This
function avoids possible locking of the speed controller in the event of an overbraking fault.
Applications :
All applications not requiring precise stopping and not using braking resistors.
Setting :
Yes or No. Factory setting : yes.
Automatic adaptation must be disabled if the machine has position control with stopping on a ramp and a braking resistor
installed.
Voltage/frequency ratio for the motor power supply
Function :
Calculation of the voltage/frequency ratio limit values, according to the characteristics of line supply, the motor and the
application.
Applications :
All constant torque or variable torque applications with or without overspeed.
Adjustment points :
The base frequency bFr corresponding to the line supply must be set beforehand (factory setting : 50 Hz).
- FrS : nominal motor frequency (in Hz)
- UnS : nominal motor voltage (in V)
- tFr : maximum frequency of speed controller output (in Hz)
Settings :
UnS :
- ATV-28iiiiM2 controllers : 200-230-240, factory setting 230
- ATV-28iiiiN4 controllers : 380-400-460-500, factory setting 400 if bFr = 50, or 460 if bFr = 60
FrS : 40 to 400, factory setting = bFr
tFr : 40 to 400, factory setting = 1.2 bFr
Note : The factory setting 60 Hz of tFr can be maintained even with a 50 Hz line supply and motor because it simply
concerns an HSP safety limit.
Type of voltage/frequency ratio
Function :
Adaptation of voltage/frequency ratio to the application to optimise performance.
Applications :
- Constant torque applications (machines with average load operating at low speed) with motors connected in parallel
or special motors (eg : high resistance cage motors) : ratio L
- Variable torque applications (pumps, fans) : ratio P
- Heavily loaded machines operating at low speed, fast cycle machines, with flux vector control (sensorless) : ratio n
- Energy-saving, for machine with slow variations in torque and speed : ratio nLd. Voltage is automatically reduced to
the minimum according to the required torque.
Adjustment points :
UFr : correction of the voltage/frequency ratio by modifying the IR compensation
Settings :
- Ratio L, n, nLd, or P, factory setting n
- UFr : 0 to 100, factory setting 20
From 20 to 0 : decrease in torque available at low speed
From 20 to 100 : increase in torque available at low speed
Autotuning (for “flux vector control” n or “energy-saving” nLd voltage/frequency ratios)
The autotuning function is performed on stopping, by request using the integrated adjustment terminal. The speed
controller automatically measures the motor parameters and changes the corresponding speed controller parameters.
Applications :
When torque or damping performance is inadequate, or when a higher level of performance is required.

Switching frequency, noise reduction
Function :
High frequency switching of the intermediate d.c. voltage can be used to supply the motor with a current wave of low
harmonic distortion. The switching frequency can be adjusted during operation to reduce the noise generated by the
motor.
Value : 2 to 15 kHz, factory setting 4 kHz
Switching frequency modulation is random to avoid resonance phenomena. This function can be inhibited if it causes
instability.
Applications :
All applications which require a low level of motor noise.
Power adaptation :
The speed controller output current should be derated if the frequency is above 4 kHz (factory setting) :
- from 4 kHz to 12 kHz : derating of 10 %
- from 12 kHz to 15 kHz : derating of 20 %
Skip frequencies
Function :
Prevention of a critical speed causing mechanical resonance. It is possible to inhibit extended motor operation in one
adjustable frequency range with a width of 2 Hz.
Applications :
Pumps, fans.

Controlled stop on loss of line supply
Function :
Control of motor stopping on loss of line supply, following a ramp which is self-adapting as a function of the restored kinetic
energy.
Applications :
Material handling, machines with high inertia, continuous production processing machines.
Factory setting : inactive
Automatic catching a spinning load with speed search (“catch on the fly”)
Function :
Restarting the motor with a speed surge following a short power break. On restart, the speed controller searches for the
effective speed of the motor in order to restart on a ramp and return to the reference speed. The speed search time can
reach 3.2 s depending on the initial difference.
This function requires the speed reference and the direction of operation to be maintained on restart.
Applications :
Machines where motor speed does not drop rapidly during a power break (high inertia machines).

Automatic restart
Function :
Automatic restart after locking of the speed controller on a fault, if the other operating conditions allow and the fault has
disappeared.
This restart is made by a series of automatic attempts performed at increasing intervals :
1 second, 5 seconds, 10 seconds then 1 minute and so on.
If the speed controller has not restarted after 6 minutes, it will lock and the procedure is abandoned until it is switched
off and then on again.
The faults which allow this restart are either that the line voltage is too low or the following have occurred :
- overbraking
- line overvoltage
- motor thermal overload
- speed controller thermal overload
- line voltage too low
- mains phase loss
- motor phase loss
- serial link fault
If any of these faults occur, the controller fault relay remains energised if the function is configured.
This function requires the speed reference and the operating direction to be maintained.
Applications :
Machines or installations operating continuously without monitoring, which, when restarted, pose no danger to either
equipment or personnel (pumps, fans, etc).
Limitation of the operating time at low speed (LSP)
Function :
The motor is automatically stopped at the end of a period of operation at low speed (LSP) where the speed reference is
less than LSP and the run signal is present.
This time can be adjusted from 0.1 to 25.5 seconds.
The setting 0 makes the function inactive (no shutdown)
Restart occurs automatically on a ramp when the reference reappears or on a break and re-establishment of the run
signal.
Applications : Automatic start/stop of pressure regulated pumps.

Factory setting : Inactive
Fault relay, unlocking
The fault relay is energised when the speed controller is powered up and there is no fault present. It consists of a C/O
contact with common point.
The speed controller is unlocked after a fault :

- by powering down until the red lamp extinguishes then powering the speed controller up again
- automatically in the cases described in the "automatic restart" function

Thermal protection of motor
Function :
Indirect protection of the motor by continuous calculation of I2t.
This function provides thermal protection of the motor in the following cases :
- ambient temperature around the motor ≤ 40 °C
- extended operation between 30 Hz and 50/60 Hz with self-ventilated motor
- above 30 Hz, when the decrease in motor ventilation is taken into account in the calculation
- maintaining power to the speed controller. The thermal state memory is cleared when the speed controller is switched
off.
Ith : 0.5 to 1.15 times the permanent output current of the speed controller, factory set at 1.0 times.
Set to the nominal current indicated on the motor rating plate.
To disable thermal protection : increase the adjustment value to the maximum.
In the case of motors connected in parallel on the same speed controller, each motor starter must be fitted with a thermal
overload relay, in order to compensate for any risk of unequal distribution of loads.
Thermal protection of speed controller
Function :
i Indirect protection of the speed controller by current limit.
This function provides thermal protection of the speed controller under normal ambient temperature conditions.
Typical tripping levels :

- motor current = 185 % of the nominal speed controller current : 2 seconds
- motor current = maximum speed controller transient current : 60 seconds
i Protection via thermistor fitted on the heatsink.
Operation on line supply at - 40 %
Function :
Reduces the trip threshold of the "undervoltage" fault to operate on a line supply with voltage drops of 40 %.
Warning: It is essential to use a line choke.
The speed controller performance is reduced when operated at undervoltage.

Forward/reverse operation
Function :
Reverse operation can be disabled for applications with a single direction of motor rotation.
Example : fans
2-wire control
Function :
Run (forward or reverse) and stop are controlled by the same logic input for which state 1 (run) or 0 (stop) is taken into
account.
To take account of machine safety requirements, the restart mode after loss of supply can be configured.
3-wire control
Function :
Run (forward or reverse) and stop are controlled by 2 different logic inputs.
LI1 is always assigned to the stop function. Stop occurs on opening (state 0).
The pulse on the run input is memorized until the stop input is opened.
On power-up or after a manual or automatic fault reset, the motor can only be powered once the "forward", "reverse" and
"injection stop" commands have been reset.
Ramp switching : 1st ramp : ACC, DEC; 2nd ramp : AC2, DE2
Function :
This can be activated in 2 ways :
- by activating a logic input LIx
- by detecting an adjustable frequency threshold
If a logic input is assigned to the function, ramp switching can only be performed by this input.
Step by step operation (JOG)
Function :
Low speed pulse operation. Minimum time between 2 pulses : 0.5 seconds.
Applications :
- Machines with insertion of product in manual operation.
- Gradual advancing of the mechanism during a maintenance operation.
If the JOG contact is closed then the operating direction contact activated, the ramp is 0.1 s whatever the ACC, dEC, AC2
and dE2 settings. If the operating direction contact is closed then the JOG contact activated, the configured ramps are
used.

To unassign the logic inputs, the following order must be observed : PS8 (LIz), then PS4 (LIy), then PS2 (LIx).
Note : The “preset speeds” function is not compatible with the PI function.
Reference switching
Function :
Two references are switched (AI1 reference and AI2 or AIC reference) by a command on a logic input.
This function automatically assigns AI2 or AIC to speed reference 2.
Connection diagram :
LIx + 24 COM AI1 + 10 AI 2 or AI C
Contact open, reference = AI2 or AIC

Contact closed, reference = AI1
If AI2 or AIC is assigned to the PI function, operation combines both functions, see page 44.

Freewheel stop
Function :
Stops the motor using the resistive torque only. The motor power supply is cut.
Freewheel stop occurs when the logic input opens (state 0).
d.c. injection stop
Functions :
Both the following operating modes may be used individually or together on the same speed controller :
i d.c. injection braking, automatic on stopping (frequency < 0.5 Hz)
- current on stopping can be set from 0.25 times the motor thermal current Ith to 1 times the speed
controller permanent current. Factory setting 0.7 times the speed controller current.
- braking time on stopping : 0 to 25 seconds or continuous.
i d.c. injection braking activated by logic command, LI2, LI3 or LI4 :
- braking when LI is activated
- fixed braking current : nominal speed controller current for 5 seconds then 0.5 motor Ith.
Applications :
- Low speed braking of high inertia fans.
- Maintaining a standstill torque (0.2 to 0.4 Tn) for fans located in an air flow.
Factory setting : automatic on stopping only, 0.5 seconds.
Note : Injection braking is disabled if the fast stop function is in progress.
Fast stop
Validation : 1 logic input LI2, LI3 or LI4. Fast stop when the logic input opens (state 0).
Function :
Braked stop with the deceleration ramp time divided by 4 but at the minimum accepted by the speed controller-motor
assembly without locking on an overbraking fault (time increased if the braking capability is exceeded).
Applications :
Conveyors with electrical emergency stop braking (optimization of the braking time according to the load).
Note : On a fast stop, automatic injection braking or braking on a logic input is disabled.
Fault reset
Function :
Clears the memorized fault and resets the speed controller if the cause of the fault has disappeared, except in the case
of the following faults : OCF (overcurrent), SCF (motor short-circuit), EFF and InF (internal faults) which require the
controller to be switched off.
The fault is cleared when the logic input changes from 0 to 1.
Forced local mode when using the serial link (option)
Function :
Changes from line control mode (serial link) to local mode (control via the terminals).

Speed reference
Function :
2 factory set summing inputs.
i 1 speed reference input + 10 V (AI1)
i 1 additional analogue input used
- either with voltage 0 + 10 V (AI2)
- or with current X-Y mA (AIC), X and Y can be configured from 0 to 20 mA
Applications :
Machines where the speed is controlleded by an external parameter.
PI regulator
The reference is the input AI1 or an internal reference (rPI) which can be adjusted via the Altivar 28 keypad.
AI2 or AIC can be assigned to feedback.
Function :
Simple regulation of flow rate or pressure with a sensor sending a feedback signal adapted to the speed controller.
Applications :
Pumping and ventilation
Adjustable parameters :
- regulator proportional gain (rPG)
- regulator integral gain (rIG)
- PI feedback multiplication coefficient (FbS) : adjusts the maximum feedback value so that it corresponds to the
maximum value of the PI regulator reference
- reversal of correction direction (PIC) : if PIC = no, the speed of the motor increases when the error is positive, if PIC =
yes, the speed of the motor decreases when the error is positive.

“Manual-Automatic” operation with PI
Function :
This function combines the PI regulator and reference switching by a logic input. The speed reference is given by AI1 or
by the PI function, depending on the state of the logic input.
Warning : If a logic input is assigned to “reference switching” (see page 42), only input AI3 can be used for PI.

Analogue output AO
Function :
Analogue output AO is a current output, which can be configured for 0-20 mA or 4-20 mA.
Motor current :
Supplies the image of the motor rms current.
20 mA corresponds to twice the nominal motor thermal current Ith.

Compatibility of configurable I/O functions
Only functions which may be incompatible with other functions are listed in this table.
i Stop functions have priority over run commands.
i Speed references via logic command have priority over analogue setpoints.
The choice of functions is limited :
- by the number of speed controller inputs and outputs to be reassigned
- by the incompatibility of certain functions with others
