Installation and maintenance work

These warnings are intended for all who work on the drive, motor cable or motor.
WARNING! Ignoring the following instructions can cause physical injury or death, or
damage to the equipment:
• Only qualified electricians are allowed to install and maintain the drive.
• Never work on the drive, motor cable or motor when main power is applied.
After disconnecting the input power, always wait for 5 min to let the intermediate
circuit capacitors discharge before you start working on the drive, motor or
motor cable.
Always ensure by measuring with a multimeter (impedance at least 1 Mohm)
that:
1. voltage between drive input phases U1, V1 and W1 and the frame is close to
0 V.
2. voltage between terminals UDC+ and UDC- and the frame is close to 0 V.
• Do not work on the control cables when power is applied to the drive or to the
external control circuits. Externally supplied control circuits may cause
dangerous voltages inside the drive even when the main power on the drive is
switched off.
• Do not make any insulation or voltage withstand tests on the drive or drive
modules.
• When reconnecting the motor cable, always check that the phase order is
correct.
Note:
• The motor cable terminals on the drive are at a dangerously high voltage when
the input power is on, regardless of whether the motor is running or not.
• The brake control terminals (UDC+, UDC-, R+ and R- terminals) carry a

dangerous DC voltage (over 500 V).
• Depending on the external wiring, dangerous voltages (115 V, 220 V or 230 V)

may be present on the terminals of relay outputs RO1 to RO3 or on the optional
AGPS board (Prevention of Unexpected Start, ACS800-01/U1, ACS800-04/
04M, ACS800-11/U11, ACS800-31/U31).
• ACS800-02 with enclosure extension: The main switch on the cabinet door
does not remove the voltage from the input busbars of the drive. Before working
on the drive, isolate the whole drive from the supply.
• ACS800-01/U1, ACS800-04/04M, ACS800-11/U11, ACS800-31/U31: The

Prevention of Unexpected Start function does not remove the voltage from the
main and auxiliary circuits.
Safety instructions

7
• At installation sites above 2000 m (6562 ft), the terminals of the RMIO board
and optional modules attached to the board do not fulfil the Protective Extra
Low Voltage (PELV) requirements stated in EN 50178.
Grounding
These instructions are intended for all who are responsible for the grounding of the
drive.
WARNING! Ignoring the following instructions can cause physical injury, death,
increased electromagnetic interference and equipment malfunction:
• Ground the drive, motor and adjoining equipment to ensure personnel safety in
all circumstances, and to reduce electromagnetic emission and interference.
• Make sure that grounding conductors are adequately sized as required by

safety regulations.
• In a multiple-drive installation, connect each drive separately to protective

earth (PE).
• ACS800-01, ACS800-11, ACS800-31: In European CE compliant installations

and in other installations where EMC emissions must be minimized, make a
360° high frequency grounding of cable entries in order to suppress
electromagnetic disturbances. In addition, connect the cable shields to
protective earth (PE) in order to meet safety regulations.
ACS800-04 (45 to 560 kW) and ACS800-02 in first environment: make a 360°
high frequency grounding of motor cable entries at the cabinet lead-through.
• Do not install a drive with EMC filter option +E202 or +E200 (available for
ACS800-01 and ACS800-11, ACS800-31 only) on an ungrounded power
system or a high-resistance-grounded (over 30 ohms) power system.
Note:
• Power cable shields are suitable for equipment grounding conductors only
when adequately sized to meet safety regulations.
• As the normal leakage current of the drive is higher than 3.5 mA AC or 10 mA

DC (stated by EN 50178, 5.2.11.1), a fixed protective earth connection is
required.

Mechanical installation and maintenance

These instructions are intended for all who install and service the drive.
WARNING! Ignoring the following instructions can cause physical injury or death,
or damage to the equipment:
• Handle the unit carefully.
• ACS800-01, ACS800-11, ACS800-31: The drive is heavy. Do not lift it alone.

Do not lift the unit by the front cover. Place the unit only on its back.
ACS800-02, ACS800-04: The drive is heavy. Lift the drive by the lifting lugs
only. Do not tilt the unit. The unit will overturn from a tilt of about 6 degrees.
Use extreme caution when manoeuvring a drive that runs on wheels. An
overturning unit can cause physical injury.
Do not tilt!
• Beware of hot surfaces. Some parts, such as heatsinks of power

semiconductors, remain hot for a while after disconnection of the electrical
supply.
• Make sure that dust from borings and grindings does not enter the drive when
installing. Electrically conductive dust inside the unit may cause damage or
malfunctioning.
• Ensure sufficient cooling.
• Do not fasten the drive by riveting or welding.
Safety instructions

Printed circuit boards
WARNING! Ignoring the following instructions can cause damage to the printed
circuit boards:
• The printed circuit boards contain components sensitive to electrostatic

discharge. Wear a grounding wrist band when handling the boards. Do not
touch the boards unnecessarily.
Fibre optic cables
WARNING! Ignoring the following instructions can cause equipment malfunction

and damage to the fibre optic cables:
• Handle the fibre optic cables with care. When unplugging optic cables, always
grab the connector, not the cable itself. Do not touch the ends of the fibres with
bare hands as the fibre is extremely sensitive to dirt. The minimum allowed
bend radius is 35 mm (1.4 in.).
Safety instructions

10
Operation
These warnings are intended for all who plan the operation of the drive or operate
the drive.
WARNING! Ignoring the following instructions can cause physical injury or death,
or damage to the equipment:
• Before adjusting the drive and putting it into service, make sure that the motor
and all driven equipment are suitable for operation throughout the speed range
provided by the drive. The drive can be adjusted to operate the motor at
speeds above and below the speed provided by connecting the motor directly
to the power line.
• Do not activate automatic fault reset functions of the Standard Control Program
if dangerous situations can occur. When activated, these functions will reset
the drive and resume operation after a fault.
• Do not control the motor with the disconnecting device (disconnecting means);
instead, use the control panel keys and , or commands via the I/O
board of the drive. The maximum allowed number of charging cycles of the DC
capacitors (i.e. power-ups by applying power) is five in ten minutes.
Note:
• If an external source for start command is selected and it is ON, the drive (with
Standard Control Program) will start immediately after fault reset unless the
drive is configured for 3-wire (a pulse) start/stop.
• When the control location is not set to Local (L not shown in the status row of
the display), the stop key on the control panel will not stop the drive. To stop
the drive using the control panel, press the LOC/REM key and then the stop
key .

Permanent magnet motor

These are additional warnings concerning permanent magnet motor drives. Ignoring
the instructions can cause physical injury or death, or damage to the equipment.
Installation and maintenance work
WARNING! Do not work on the drive when the permanent magnet motor is rotating.
Also, when the supply power is switched off and the inverter is stopped, a rotating
permanent magnet motor feeds power to the intermediate circuit of the drive and the
supply connections become live.
Before installation and maintenance work on the drive:
• Stop the motor.
• Ensure that the motor cannot rotate during work. Prevent the start-up of any
drives in the same mechanical group by opening the “prevention of unexpected
start” switch and padlocking it. Make sure that no other system, like hydraulic
crawling drives, are able to rotate the motor directly or through any mechanical
connection like felt, nip, rope, etc.
• Ensure that there is no voltage on the drive power terminals:
Alternative 1) Disconnect the motor from the drive with a safety switch or by other
means. Measure that there is no voltage present on the drive input or output
terminals (U1, V1, W1, U2, V2, W2, UDC+, UDC-).
Alternative 2) Measure that there is no voltage present on the drive input or output
terminals (U1, V1, W1, U2, V2, W2, UDC+, UDC-). Ground the drive output
terminals temporarily by connecting them together as well as to the PE.
Alternative 3) If possible, both of the above.
Start-up and operation
WARNING! Do not run the motor over the rated speed. Motor overspeed leads to
overvoltage which may damage or explode the capacitors in the intermediate circuit
of the drive.
Controlling a permanent magnet motor is only allowed using the control program for
Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machine Drive, or other control programs in scalar
control mode.

This chapter contains the instructions that you must follow when selecting the motor,
cables, protections, cable routing and way of operation for the drive system.
Note: The installation must always be designed and made according to applicable
local laws and regulations. ABB does not assume any liability whatsoever for any
installation which breaches the local laws and/or other regulations. Furthermore, if
the recommendations given by ABB are not followed, the drive may experience
problems that the warranty does not cover.

This chapter applies to the ACS800-01/U1, ACS800-11/U11, ACS800-31/U31,
ACS800-02/U2, ACS800-04/U4, and ACS800-07/U7 types up to -0610-x.
Note: All options described in this chapter are not available for all products. Check
the availability from section Type code on page 24.
Motor selection and compatibility

1. Select the motor according to the rating tables in chapter Technical Data. Use the
DriveSize PC tool if the default load cycles are not applicable.
2. Check that the motor ratings lie within the allowed ranges of the drive control
program:
• motor nominal voltage is 1/2 ... 2 · UN of the drive
• motor nominal current is 1/6 ... 2 · I2hd of the drive in DTC control and
0 ... 2 · I2hd in scalar control. The control mode is selected by a drive parameter.

30
3. Check that the motor voltage rating meets the application requirements:
If the drive is equipped … and … … then the motor voltage
with … rating should be …

ACS800-01, -U1, -02, -U2, frequent or long term brake cycles will UACeq1

-U31, -17, -37 DC link voltage will be increased from UACeq2
nominal (parameter setting)
UN = rated input voltage of the drive

UACeq1 = UDC/1.35
UACeq2 = UDC/1.41
UACeq is the equivalent AC power source voltage of the drive in V AC.

UDC is the maximum DC link voltage of the drive in V DC.
For resistor braking: UDC= 1.21 × nominal DC link voltage.
For units with IGBT supply: See the parameter value.
(Note: Nominal DC link voltage is UN × 1.35 or UN × 1.41 in V DC.)
See notes 6 and 7 below the Requirements table, page 34.

4. Consult the motor manufacturer before using a motor in a drive system where the
motor nominal voltage differs from the AC power source voltage.
5. Ensure that the motor insulation system withstands the maximum peak voltage in
the motor terminals. See the Requirements table below for the required motor
insulation system and drive filtering.
Example 1: When the supply voltage is 440 V and a drive with a diode supply is
operating in motor mode only, the maximum peak voltage in the motor terminals
can be approximated as follows: 440 V · 1.35 · 2 = 1190 V. Check that the motor
insulation system withstands this voltage.
Example 2: When the supply voltage is 440 V and the drive is equipped with an
IGBT supply, the maximum peak voltage in the motor terminals can be
approximated as follows: 440 V · 1.41 · 2 = 1241 V. Check that the motor
insulation system withstands this voltage.

31
Protecting the motor insulation and bearings

The output of the drive comprises – regardless of output frequency – pulses of
approximately 1.35 times the equivalent mains network voltage with a very short rise
time. This is the case with all drives employing modern IGBT inverter technology.
The voltage of the pulses can be almost double at the motor terminals, depending on
the attenuation and reflection properties of the motor cable and the terminals. This in
turn can cause additional stress on the motor and motor cable insulation.
Modern variable speed drives with their fast rising voltage pulses and high switching
frequencies can generate current pulses that flow through the motor bearings, which
can gradually erode the bearing races and rolling elements.
The stress on motor insulation can be avoided by using optional ABB du/dt filters.
du/dt filters also reduce bearing currents.
To avoid damage to motor bearings, the cables must be selected and installed
according to the instructions given in the hardware manual. In addition, insulated N-
end (non-drive end) bearings and output filters from ABB must be used according to
the following table. Two types of filters are used individually or in combinations:
• optional du/dt filter (protects motor insulation system and reduces bearing
currents).
• common mode filter (mainly reduces bearing currents).

32
Requirements table
The following table shows how to select the motor insulation system and when an optional ABB du/dt
filter, insulated N-end (non-drive end) motor bearings and ABB common mode filters are required. The
motor manufacturer should be consulted regarding the construction of the motor insulation and
additional requirements for explosion-safe (EX) motors. Failure of the motor to fulfil the following
requirements or improper installation may shorten motor life or damage the motor bearings and voids
the warranty.

Note 4: HXR and AMA motors

All AMA machines (manufactured in Helsinki) for drive systems have form-wound windings. All HXR
machines manufactured in Helsinki starting 1.1.1998 have form-wound windings.
Note 5: ABB motors of types other than M2_, M3_, HX_ and AM_
Use the selection criteria given for non-ABB motors.
Note 6: Resistor braking of the drive
When the drive is in braking mode for a large part of its operation time, the intermediate circuit DC
voltage of the drive increases, the effect being similar to increasing the supply voltage by up to
20 percent. The voltage increase should be taken into consideration when determining the motor
insulation requirement.
Example: Motor insulation requirement for a 400 V application must be selected as if the drive were
supplied with 480 V.
Note 7: Drives with an IGBT supply unit
If voltage is raised by the drive (this is a parameter selectable function), select the motor insulation
system according to the increased intermediate circuit DC voltage level, especially in the 500 V supply
voltage range.

35
Note 8: Calculating the rise time and the peak line-to-line voltage
The peak line-to-line voltage at the motor terminals generated by the drive as well as the voltage rise
time depend on the cable length. The requirements for the motor insulation system given in the table
are “worst case” requirements covering installations with 30 metre and longer cables. The rise time can
be calculated as follows: t = 0.8 · ÛLL/(du/dt). Read ÛLL and du/dt from the diagrams below. Multiply
the values of the graph by the supply voltage (UN). In case of drives with an IGBT supply unit or resistor
braking, the ÛLL and du/dt values are approximately 20% higher.

including three rings for one cable).
Permanent magnet synchronous motor

Only one permanent magnet motor can be connected to the inverter output.
It is recommended to install a safety switch between the permanent magnet
synchronous motor and the drive output. The switch is needed to isolate the motor
during any maintenance work on the drive.

Supply connection
Disconnecting device (disconnecting means)

ACS800-01, ACS800-U1, ACS800-11, ACS800-U11, ACS800-31, ACS800-U31,
ACS800-02 and ACS800-U2 without enclosure extension, ACS800-04, ACS800-U4
Install a hand-operated input disconnecting device (disconnecting means) between
the AC power source and the drive. The disconnecting device must be of a type that
can be locked to the open position for installation and maintenance work.
ACS800-02 and ACS800-U2 with enclosure extension, ACS800-07 and ACS800-U7
These units are equipped with a hand-operated input disconnecting device
(disconnecting means) which isolates the drive and the motor from the AC power as
standard. The disconnecting device does not, however, isolate the input busbars
from the AC power. Therefore, during installation and maintenance work on the
drive, the input cables and busbars must be isolated from the input power with a
disconnector at the distribution board or at the supplying transformer.
EU
To meet the European Union Directives, according to standard EN 60204-1, Safety
of Machinery, the disconnecting device must be one of the following types:
• switch-disconnector of utilization category AC-23B (EN 60947-3)
• disconnector that has an auxiliary contact that in all cases causes switching
devices to break the load circuit before the opening of the main contacts of the
disconnector (EN 60947-3)
• circuit breaker suitable for isolation in accordance with EN 60947-2.
US
The disconnecting means must conform to the applicable safety regulations.
Fuses
See section Thermal overload and short-circuit protection.
Main contactor
If used, dimension the contactor according to the nominal voltage and current of the
drive. The utilization category (IEC 947-4) is AC-1.

37
Thermal overload and short-circuit protection
Thermal overload protection of the drive and the input and motor cables
The drive protects itself and the input and motor cables against thermal overload
when the cables are dimensioned according to the nominal current of the drive. No
additional thermal protection devices are needed.
WARNING! If the drive is connected to multiple motors, a separate thermal overload

switch or a circuit breaker must be used for protecting each cable and motor. These
devices may require a separate fuse to cut off the short-circuit current.
Thermal overload protection of the motor

According to regulations, the motor must be protected against thermal overload and
the current must be switched off when overload is detected. The drive includes a
motor thermal protection function that protects the motor and switches off the current
when necessary. Depending on a drive parameter value, the function either monitors
a calculated temperature value (based on a motor thermal model) or an actual
temperature indication given by motor temperature sensors. The user can tune the
thermal model further by feeding in additional motor and load data.
The most common temperature sensors are:
• motor sizes IEC180…225: thermal switch (e.g. Klixon)
• motor sizes IEC200…250 and larger: PTC or Pt100.
See the firmware manual for more information on the motor thermal protection, and
the connection and use of the temperature sensors.
Protection against short-circuit in the motor cable

The drive protects the motor cable and motor in a short-circuit situation when the
motor cable is dimensioned according to the nominal current of the drive. No
additional protection devices are needed.

1) Size the fuses according to instructions given in chapter Technical data. The fuses will protect the input
cable in short-circuit situations, restrict drive damage and prevent damage to adjoining equipment in
case of a short-circuit inside the drive.

39
2) Circuit breakers which have been tested by ABB with the ACS800 can be used. Fuses must be used
with other circuit breakers. Contact your local ABB representative for the approved breaker types and
supply network characteristics.
The protective characteristics of circuit breakers depend on the type, construction and settings of the
breakers. There are also limitations pertaining to the short-circuit capacity of the supply network.
WARNING! Due to the inherent operating principle and construction of circuit breakers,
independent of the manufacturer, hot ionized gases may escape from the breaker
enclosure in case of a short-circuit. To ensure safe use, special attention must be paid to
the installation and placement of the breakers. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
Note: Circuit breakers must not be used without fuses in the USA.
3) Size the fuses according to local safety regulations, appropriate input voltage and the rated current of
the drive (see chapter Technical data).
4) ACS800-02 units and ACS800-07 units with enclosure extension are equipped with aR fuses as
standard. ACS800-U2 and ACS800-U7 units are equipped with T/L fuses as standard. The fuses
restrict drive damage and prevent damage to adjoining equipment in case of a short-circuit inside the
drive.
Ground fault protection

The drive is equipped with an internal ground fault protective function to protect the
unit against ground faults in the motor and motor cable. This is not a personal safety
or a fire protection feature. The ground fault protective function can be disabled with
a parameter, refer to the appropriate ACS800 Firmware Manual.
The EMC filter of the drive includes capacitors connected between the main circuit
and the frame. These capacitors and long motor cables increase the ground leakage
current and may cause fault current circuit breakers to function.
Emergency stop devices

For safety reasons, install the emergency stop devices at each operator control
station and at other operating stations where emergency stop may be needed.
Note: Pressing the stop key ( ) on the control panel of the drive does not generate
an emergency stop of the motor or separate the drive from dangerous potential.
ACS800-02/U2 with enclosure extension and ACS800-07/U7

An emergency stop function is optionally available for stopping and switching off the
whole drive. Two stop categories according to IEC/EN 60204-1 (1997) are available:
immediate removal of power (Category 0 for ACS800-02/U2 and ACS800-07/U7)
and controlled emergency stop (Category 1 for ACS800-07/U7).
Restarting after an emergency stop
After an emergency stop, the emergency stop button must be released and the drive
started by turning the operating switch of the drive from position “ON” to “START”.

Prevention of Unexpected Start

The ACS800-01/U1, ACS800-04/U4, ACS800-11/U11, ACS800-31/U31 and
ACS800-07/U7 can be equipped with an optional Prevention of Unexpected Start
function according to standards IEC/EN 60204-1: 1997; ISO/DIS 14118: 2000 and
EN 1037: 1996.
The Prevention of Unexpected Start function disables the control voltage of the
power semiconductors, thus preventing the inverter from generating the AC voltage
required to rotate the motor. By using this function, short-time operations (like
cleaning) and/or maintenance work on non-electrical parts of the machinery can be
performed without switching off the AC power supply to the drive.
The operator activates the Prevention of Unexpected Start function by opening a
switch on a control desk. An indicating lamp on the control desk will light, signalling
that the prevention is active. The switch can be locked out.
The user must install on a control desk near the machinery:
• switching/disconnecting device for the circuitry. “Means shall be provided to
prevent inadvertent, and/or mistaken closure of the disconnecting device.”
EN 60204-1: 1997.
• indicating lamp; on = starting the drive is prevented, off = drive is operative.
• ACS800-01/U1, ACS800-04/U4, ACS800-11/U11, ACS800-31/U31: safety relay
(type BD5935 has been approved by ABB)
For connections to the drive, see chapter Installation of AGPS board (Prevention of
Unexpedted Start, +Q950) or the circuit diagram delivered with the drive (ACS800-
07/U7).
WARNING! The Prevention of Unexpected Start function does not disconnect the
voltage of the main and auxiliary circuits from the drive. Therefore maintenance work
on electrical parts of the drive or the motor can only be carried out after isolating the
drive system from the main supply.
Note: If a running drive is stopped by using the Prevention of Unexpected Start

function, the drive will cut off the motor supply voltage and the motor will coast to
stop.

42
Selecting the power cables
General rules
Dimension the mains (input power) and motor cables according to local
regulations:
• The cable must be able to carry the drive load current. See chapter Technical
data for the rated currents.
• The cable must be rated for at least 70 °C maximum permissible temperature of
conductor in continuous use. For US, see Additional US requirements.
• The inductance and impedance of the PE conductor/cable (grounding wire) must
be rated according to permissible touch voltage appearing under fault conditions
(so that the fault point voltage will not rise excessively when a ground fault
occurs).
• 600 V AC cable is accepted for up to 500 V AC. 750 V AC cable is accepted for
up to 600 V AC. For 690 V AC rated equipment, the rated voltage between the
conductors of the cable should be at least 1 kV.
For drive frame size R5 and larger, or motors larger than 30 kW (40 HP),
symmetrical shielded motor cable must be used (figure below). A four-conductor
system can be used up to frame size R4 with up to 30 kW (40 HP) motors, but
shielded symmetrical motor cable is always recommended. The shield(s) of motor
cable(s) must have 360° bonding at both ends.
Note: When continuous metal conduit is employed, shielded cable is not required.
The conduit must have bonding at both ends as with cable shield.
A four-conductor system is allowed for input cabling, but shielded symmetrical cable
is recommended. To operate as a protective conductor, the shield conductivity must
be as follows when the protective conductor is made of the same metal as the phase
conductors:
Cross-sectional area of the phase Minimum cross-sectional area of the
conductors corresponding protective conductor
S (mm2) Sp (mm2)
S < 16 S
16 < S < 35 16
35 < S S/2
Compared to a four-conductor system, the use of symmetrical shielded cable

reduces electromagnetic emission of the whole drive system as well as the stress on
motor insulation, bearing currents and wear.
The motor cable and its PE pigtail (twisted shield) should be kept as short as
possible in order to reduce high-frequency electromagnetic emission, as well as
stray currents outside the cable and capacitive current (relevant in power range
below 20 kW).

43
Alternative power cable types

Power cable types that can be used with the drive are represented below.
Recommended
Symmetrical shielded cable: three phase conductors A separate PE conductor is required if the conductivity
and a concentric or otherwise symmetrically of the cable shield is < 50% of the conductivity of the
constructed PE conductor, and a shield phase conductor.

[motors > 30 kW (40 HP)].
Motor cable shield

To effectively suppress radiated and conducted radio-frequency emissions, the
shield conductivity must be at least 1/10 of the phase conductor conductivity. The
requirements are easily met with a copper or aluminium shield. The minimum
requirement of the motor cable shield of the drive is shown below. It consists of a
concentric layer of copper wires with an open helix of copper tape or copper wire.
The better and tighter the shield, the lower the emission level and bearing currents.
Copper wire screen Helix of copper tape Inner insulation

Insulation jacket
or copper wire
Cable core

44
Additional US requirements
Type MC continuous corrugated aluminum armor cable with symmetrical grounds or
shielded power cable must be used for the motor cables if metallic conduit is not
used. For the North American market, 600 V AC cable is accepted for up to
500 V AC. 1000 V AC cable is required above 500 V AC (below 600 V AC). For
drives rated over 100 amperes, the power cables must be rated for 75 °C (167 °F).
Conduit
Separate parts of a conduit must be coupled together, bridge the joints with a ground
conductor bonded to the conduit on each side of the joint. Bond the conduits also to
the drive enclosure and motor frame. Use separate conduits for input power, motor,
brake resistor, and control wiring. When conduit is employed, type MC continuous
corrugated aluminium armor cable or shielded cable is not required. A dedicated
ground cable is always required.
Note: Do not run motor wiring from more than one drive in the same conduit.
Armored cable / shielded power cable

Six conductor (3 phases and 3 ground) type MC continuous corrugated aluminum
armor cable with symmetrical grounds is available from the following suppliers (trade
names in parentheses):
• Anixter Wire & Cable (Philsheath)
• BICC General Corp (Philsheath)
• Rockbestos Co. (Gardex)
• Oaknite (CLX).
Shielded power cables are available from Belden, LAPPKABEL (ÖLFLEX) and
Pirelli.
Power factor compensation capacitors

Power factor compensation is not needed with AC drives. However, if a drive is to be
connected in a system with compensation capacitors installed, note the following
restrictions.
WARNING! Do not connect power factor compensation capacitors or harmonic

filters to the motor cables (between the drive and the motor). They are not meant to
be used with AC drives and can cause permanent damage to the drive or
themselves.

45
If there are power factor compensation capacitors in parallel with the three phase
input of the drive:
1. Do not connect a high-power capacitor to the power line while the drive is
connected. The connection will cause voltage transients that may trip or even
damage the drive.
2. If capacitor load is increased/decreased step by step when the AC drive is
connected to the power line: Ensure that the connection steps are low enough not
to cause voltage transients that would trip the drive.
3. Check that the power factor compensation unit is suitable for use in systems with
AC drives i.e. harmonic generating loads. In such systems, the compensation unit
should typically be equipped with a blocking reactor or harmonic filter.
Equipment connected to the motor cable
Installation of safety switches, contactors, connection boxes, etc.

To minimize the emission level when safety switches, contactors, connection boxes
or similar equipment are installed in the motor cable between the drive and the
motor:
• EU: Install the equipment in a metal enclosure with 360 degrees grounding for the
shields of both the incoming and outgoing cable, or connect the shields of the
cables otherwise together.
• US: Install the equipment in a metal enclosure in a way that the conduit or motor
cable shielding runs consistently without breaks from the drive to the motor.
Bypass connection
WARNING! Never connect the supply power to the drive output terminals U2, V2
and W2. If frequent bypassing is required, employ mechanically connected switches
or contactors. Mains (line) voltage applied to the output can result in permanent
damage to the unit.
Before opening a contactor (DTC control mode selected)

Stop the drive and wait for the motor to stop before opening a contactor between the
output of the drive and the motor when the DTC control mode is selected. See the
appropriate ACS800 control program firmware manual for the required parameter
settings. Otherwise, the contactor will be damaged. In scalar control, the contactor
can be opened with the drive running.

46
Protecting the relay output contacts and attenuating disturbances in case

of inductive loads
Inductive loads (relays, contactors, motors) cause voltage transients when switched
off.
The relay contacts on the RMIO board are protected with varistors (250 V) against
overvoltage peaks. In spite of this, it is highly recommended to equip inductive loads
with noise attenuating circuits [varistors, RC filters (AC) or diodes (DC)] in order to
minimize the EMC emission at switch-off. If not suppressed, the disturbances may
connect capacitively or inductively to other conductors in the control cable and form
a risk of malfunction in other parts of the system.
Install the protective component as close to the inductive load as possible. Do not
install protective components at the RMIO board terminal block.

47
Selecting the control cables

All control cables must be shielded.
Use a double-shielded twisted pair cable (Figure a, e.g. JAMAK by NK Cables,
Finland) for analogue signals. This type of cable is recommended for the pulse
encoder signals also. Employ one individually shielded pair for each signal. Do not
use common return for different analogue signals.
A double-shielded cable is the best alternative for low-voltage digital signals but
single-shielded twisted pair cable (Figure b) is also usable.
a b
A double-shielded twisted A single-shielded twisted
pair cable pair cable
Run analogue and digital signals in separate, shielded cables.

Relay-controlled signals, providing their voltage does not exceed 48 V, can be run in
the same cables as digital input signals. It is recommended that the relay-controlled
signals be run as twisted pairs.
Never mix 24 VDC and 115/230 V AC signals in the same cable.
Relay cable
The cable type with braided metallic screen (e.g. ÖLFLEX by LAPPKABEL,
Germany) has been tested and approved by ABB.
Control panel cable

In remote use, the cable connecting the control panel to the drive must not exceed 3
metres (10 ft). The cable type tested and approved by ABB is used in control panel
option kits.

48
Connection of a motor temperature sensor to the drive I/O
WARNING! IEC 60664 requires double or reinforced insulation between live parts
and the surface of accessible parts of electrical equipment which are either non-
conductive or conductive but not connected to the protective earth.
To fulfil this requirement, the connection of a thermistor (and other similar
components) to the digital inputs of the drive can be implemented in three alternate
ways:
1. There is double or reinforced insulation between the thermistor and live parts of
the motor.
2. Circuits connected to all digital and analogue inputs of the drive are protected
against contact and insulated with basic insulation (the same voltage level as the
drive main circuit) from other low voltage circuits.
3. An external thermistor relay is used. The insulation of the relay must be rated for
the same voltage level as the main circuit of the drive. For connection, see
ACS800 Firmware Manual.
Installation sites above 2000 metres (6562 feet)
WARNING! Protect against direct contact when installing, operating and servicing
the RMIO board wiring and optional modules attached to the board. The Protective
Extra Low Voltage (PELV) requirements stated in EN 50178 are not fulfilled at
altitudes above 2000 m (6562 ft).
Routing the cables

Route the motor cable away from other cable routes. Motor cables of several drives
can be run in parallel installed next to each other. It is recommended that the motor
cable, input power cable and control cables be installed on separate trays. Avoid
long parallel runs of motor cables with other cables in order to decrease
electromagnetic interference caused by the rapid changes in the drive output
voltage.
Where control cables must cross power cables make sure they are arranged at an
angle as near to 90 degrees as possible. Do not run extra cables through the drive.
The cable trays must have good electrical bonding to each other and to the
grounding electrodes. Aluminium tray systems can be used to improve local
equalizing of potential.

IT (ungrounded) systems
A drive equipped with no EMC filter or with EMC filter +E210 is suitable for IT
(ungrounded systems). If the drive is equipped with EMC filter +E202, disconnect
the filter before connecting the drive to an ungrounded system. For detailed
instructions on how to do this, please contact your local ABB representative.
WARNING! If a drive with EMC filter +E202 is installed on an IT system [an

ungrounded power system or a high resistance-grounded (over 30 ohms) power
system], the system will be connected to earth potential through the EMC filter
capacitors of the drive. This may cause danger or damage the unit.

Double-shielded cable Single-shielded cable
Single-shielded cable: Twist the grounding wires of the outer shield and connect
them to the nearest grounding clamp. Double-shielded cable: Connect the inner
shields and the grounding wires of the outer shield to the nearest grounding clamp.
Do not connect shields of different cables to the same grounding clamp.
Leave the other end of the shield unconnected or ground it indirectly via a few
nanofarads high-frequency capacitor (e.g. 3.3 nF / 630 V). The shield can also be
grounded directly at both ends if they are in the same ground line with no significant
voltage drop between the end points.
Keep the signal wire pairs twisted as close to the terminals as possible. Twisting the
wire with its return wire reduces disturbances caused by inductive coupling.
Securing the control cables mechanically

Use strain relief clamps as shown above. Fasten the control cables together and to
the drive frame with cable ties as shown in section Routing the control/signal cables
inside the cubicle.

This chapter shows
• external control connections to the RMIO board for the ACS800 Standard Control
Program (Factory Macro)
• specifications of the inputs and outputs of the board.

This chapter applies to ACS800 units which employ RMIO-01 board from revision J
onwards and RMIO-02 board from revision H onwards.
Note for the ACS800-02 with enclosure extension and the ACS800-07
The connections for the RMIO board shown below apply also to optional terminal
block X2 available for the ACS800-02 and ACS800-07. The terminals of the RMIO
board are wired to terminal block X2 internally.
Terminals of X2 accept cables from 0.5 to 4.0 mm2 (22 to 12 AWG). Tightening
torque for screw terminals is 0.4 to 0.8 Nm (0.3 to 0.6 lbf ft). For disconnecting wires
from spring terminals, use a screw driver with a blade thickness of 0.6 mm
(0.024 in.) and width of 3.5 mm (0.138 in.), e.g. PHOENIX CONTACT SZF 1-
0,6X3,5.
Note on terminal labelling

Optional modules (Rxxx) may have identical terminal designations with the RMIO
board.

90
Note on external power supply

External +24 V power supply for the RMIO board is recommended if
• the application requires a fast start after connecting the input power supply
• fieldbus communication is required when the input power supply is disconnected.
The RMIO board can be supplied from an external power source via terminal X23 or
X34 or via both X23 and X34. The internal power supply to terminal X34 can be left
connected when using terminal X23.
WARNING! If the RMIO board is supplied from an external power source via
terminal X34, the loose end of the cable removed from the RMIO board terminal
must be secured mechanically to a location where it cannot come into contact with
electrical parts. If the screw terminal plug of the cable is removed, the wire ends
must be individually insulated.
Parameter settings
In Standard Control Program, set parameter 16.9 CTRL BOARD SUPPLY to
EXTERNAL 24V if the RMIO board is powered from an external supply.

Heatsink
The heatsink fins pick up dust from the cooling air. The drive runs into
overtemperature warnings and faults if the heatsink is not clean. In a “normal”
environment (not dusty, not clean) the heatsink should be checked annually, in a
dusty environment more often.
Clean the heatsink as follows (when necessary):
1. Remove the cooling fan (see section Fan).
2. Blow dry clean compressed air from bottom to top and simultaneously use a
vacuum cleaner at the air outlet to trap the dust. Note: Prevent dust from entering
adjoining equipment.
3. Replace the cooling fan.
Fan
The lifespan of the cooling fan of the drive is about 50 000 hours. The actual lifespan
depends on the running time of the fan, ambient temperature and dust
concentration. See the appropriate ACS800 firmware manual for the actual signal
which indicates the running time of the cooling fan. For resetting the running time
signal after a fan replacement, please contact ABB.
A cooling fan is included in the enclosure extension with a contactor option. Its
lifespan is at least 40 000 h.
Replacement fans are available from ABB. Do not use other than ABB specified
spare parts.
Maintenance

102

Capacitors
The drive intermediate circuit employs several electrolytic capacitors. Their lifespan
is at least 90 000 hours depending on the operating time of the drive, loading and
ambient temperature. Capacitor life can be prolonged by lowering the ambient
temperature.
It is not possible to predict a capacitor failure. Capacitor failure is usually followed by
damage to the unit and an input cable fuse failure, or a fault trip. Contact ABB if
capacitor failure is suspected. Replacements are available from ABB. Do not use
other than ABB specified spare parts.

Symbols
Nominal ratings
Icont.max continuous rms output current. No overload capability at 40 °C.
Imax maximum output current. Available for 10 s at start, otherwise as long as allowed by drive
temperature.
Typical ratings:
No-overload use
Pcont.max typical motor power. The power ratings apply to most IEC 34 motors at the nominal voltage,
230 V, 400 V, 500 V or 690 V.
Light-overload use (10% overload capability)
I2N continuous rms current. 10% overload is allowed for one minute every 5 minutes.
PN typical motor power. The power ratings apply to most IEC 34 motors at the nominal voltage,
230 V, 400 V, 500 V or 690 V.
Heavy-duty use (50% overload capability)
I2hd continuous rms current. 50% overload is allowed for one minute every 5 minutes.
Phd typical motor power. The power ratings apply to most IEC 34 motors at the nominal voltage,
230 V, 400 V, 500 V or 690 V.
Sizing
The current ratings are the same regardless of the supply voltage within one voltage range. To achieve
the rated motor power given in the table, the rated current of the drive must be higher than or equal to
the rated motor current.
Note 1: The maximum allowed motor shaft power is limited to 1.5 · Phd, 1.1 · PN or Pcont.max (whichever
value is greatest). If the limit is exceeded, motor torque and current are automatically restricted. The
function protects the input bridge of the drive against overload. If the condition exists for 5 minutes, the
limit is set to Pcont.max.
Note 2: The ratings apply at an ambient temperature of 40 °C (104 °F). At lower temperatures the
ratings are higher (except Imax).
Note 3: Use the DriveSize PC tool for a more accurate dimensioning if the ambient temperature is
below 40 °C (104 °F) or the drive is loaded cyclically.
Derating
The load capacity (current and power) decreases if the installation site altitude exceeds 1000 metres
(3281 ft), or if the ambient temperature exceeds 40 °C (104 °F).
Temperature derating
In the temperature range +40 °C (+104 °F) to +50 °C (+122 °F), the rated output current is decreased
1% for every additional 1 °C (1.8 °F). The output current is calculated by multiplying the current given in
the rating table by the derating factor.
Example If the ambient temperature is 50 °C (+122 °F), the derating factor is 100% - 1 % · 10 °C =
90% or 0.90. The output current is then 0.90 · I , 0.90 · I or 0.90 · I . °C

Fuses
gG and aR fuses for protection against short-circuit in the input power cable or drive
are listed below. Either fuse type may be used if it operates rapidly enough. Choose
between gG and aR fuses according to the table under Quick guide for selecting
between gG and aR fuses on page 116, or verify the operating time by checking
that the short-circuit current of the installation is at least the value given in the
fuse table. The short-circuit current can be calculated as follows:
U
Ik2-ph =
2· Rc2 + (Zk + Xc)2
where
Ik2-ph = short-circuit current in symmetrical two-phase short-circuit (A)
U = network line-to-line voltage (V)
Rc = cable resistance (ohm)
Zk = zk · UN2/SN = transformer impedance (ohm)
zk = transformer impedance (%)
UN = transformer rated voltage (V)
SN = nominal apparent power of the transformer (kVA)
Xc = cable reactance (ohm).
Calculation example
Drive:
• ACS800-02-0260-3
• supply voltage U = 410 V
Transformer:
• rated power SN = 3000 kVA
• rated voltage (drive supply voltage) UN = 430 V
• transformer impedance zk = 7.2%.
Supply cable:
• length = 170 m
• resistance/length = 0.112 ohm/km
• reactance/length = 0.0273 ohm/km.
UN2 (430 V)2

Zk = zk · = 0.072 · = 4.438 mohm
SN 3000 kVA
ohm
Rc = 170 m · 0.112 km = 19.04 mohm

Xc = 170 m · 0.0273 = 4.641 mohm
km
410 V
Ik2-ph = = 9.7 kA
2· (19.04 mohm)2 + (4.438 mohm + 4.641 mohm)2
The calculated short-circuit current 9.7 kA is higher than the minimum short-circuit current of the drive
gG fuse type OFAF3H500 (8280 A). -> The 500 V gG fuse (ABB Control OFAF3H500) can be used.

Note 1: The supply transformer minimum power in kVA is calculated with a zk value of 6% and
frequency 50 Hz.
Technical data

117
Note 2: The table is not intended for transformer selection - that must be done separately.
The following parameters can effect on the correct operation of the protection:
• cable length, i.e. the longer the cable the weaker the fuse protection, as the long cable limits the
fault current
• cable size, i.e. the smaller the cable cross-section the weaker the fuse protection, as the small cable
size limits the fault current
• transformer size, i.e the smaller the transformer the weaker the fuse protection, as the small
transformer limits the fault current
• transformer impedance, i.e. the higher the zk the weaker the fuse protection as high impedance
limits the fault current.
The protection can be improved by installing a bigger supply transformer and/or bigger cables, and in
most cases by selecting aR fuses instead of gG fuses. Selection of smaller fuses improves the
protection, but may also affect the fuse life time and lead to unnecessary operation of the fuses.
In case of any uncertainty regarding the drive protection, please contact your local ABB.
Cable types
The table below gives copper and aluminium cable types for different load currents.
Cable sizing is based on max. 9 cables laid on a cable ladder side by side, ambient
temperature 30 °C, PVC insulation, surface temperature 70 °C (EN 60204-1 and
IEC 60364-5-52/2001). For other conditions, size the cables according to local
safety regulations, appropriate input voltage and the load current of the drive.

Voltage and EMC Directives (Directive 73/23/EEC, as amended by 93/68/EEC and Directive 89/336/
EEC, as amended by 2004/108EC).
Definitions
EMC stands for Electromagnetic Compatibility. It is the ability of electrical/electronic equipment to
operate without problems within an electromagnetic environment. Likewise, the equipment must not
disturb or interfere with any other product or system within its locality.
First environment includes establishments connected to a low-voltage network which supplies buildings
used for domestic purposes.
Second environment includes establishments connected to a network not supplying domestic premises.
Drive of category C2: drive of rated voltage less than 1000 V and intended to be installed and

“C-tick” marking
“C-tick” marking is required in Australia and New Zealand. A “C-tick” mark is attached to each drive in
order to verify compliance with the relevant standard (IEC 61800-3 (2004) – Adjustable speed electrical
power drive systems – Part 3: EMC product standard including specific test methods), mandated by the
Trans-Tasman Electromagnetic Compatibility Scheme.
Definitions
EMC stands for Electromagnetic Compatibility. It is the ability of electrical/electronic equipment to
operate without problems within an electromagnetic environment. Likewise, the equipment must not
disturb or interfere with any other product or system within its locality.
The Trans-Tasman Electromagnetic Compatibility Scheme (EMCS) was introduced by the Australian
Communication Authority (ACA) and the Radio Spectrum Management Group (RSM) of the New
Zealand Ministry of Economic Development (NZMED) in November 2001. The aim of the scheme is to
protect the radiofrequency spectrum by introducing technical limits for emission from electrical/
electronic products.

Resistor braking

This chapter describes how to select, protect and wire brake choppers and resistors.
The chapter also contains the technical data.

This chapter applies to the ACS800-01/U1 (frame sizes R2 to R6), ACS800-02/U2
(frame sizes R7 and R8), ACS800-04/U4 (frame sizes R7 and R8) and ACS800-07/
U7 (frame sizes R6, R7 and R8).
Availability of brake choppers and resistors for the ACS800

Frame R2 and R3 drives and 690 V units of frame size R4 have a built-in brake
chopper as standard equipment. For other units, brake choppers are optionally
available as built-in units, indicated in the type code by +D150.
Resistors are available as add-on kits. For the ACS800-07/U7, resistors are
available as factory installed.
How to select the correct drive/chopper/resistor combination

1. Calculate the maximum power (Pmax) generated by the motor during braking.
2. Select a suitable drive / brake chopper / brake resistor combination for the
application according to the following tables (take account of other factors in the
drive selection also). The following condition must be met:
Pbrcont > Pmax
where
Pbr denotes Pbr5, Pbr10, Pbr30, Pbr60, or Pbrcont depending on the duty cycle.
3. Check the resistor selection. The energy generated by the motor during a 400-
second period must not exceed the resistor heat dissipation capacity ER.
If the ER value is not sufficient, it is possible to use a four-resistor assembly in which two standard
resistors are connected in parallel, two in series. The ER value of the four-resistor assembly is four
times the value specified for the standard resistor.

Note: A resistor other than the standard resistor can be used provided that:
• its resistance is not lower than the resistance of the standard resistor.
WARNING! Never use a brake resistor with a resistance below the value specified
for the particular drive / brake chopper / resistor combination. The drive and the
chopper are not able to handle the overcurrent caused by the low resistance.
• the resistance does not restrict the braking capacity needed, i.e.,

All braking resistors must be installed outside the converter module. The resistors are built in an IP 00 metal frame. The
2xSAFUR and 4xSAFUR resistors are connected in parallel. Note: The SAFUR resistors are not UL listed.
Resistor installation and wiring

All resistors must be installed outside the drive module in a place where they will
cool.
WARNING! The materials near the brake resistor must be non-flammable. The
surface temperature of the resistor is high. Air flowing from the resistor is of
hundreds of degrees Celsius. Protect the resistor against contact.
Resistor braking

152
Use the cable type used for drive input cabling (refer to chapter Technical data) to
ensure the input fuses will also protect the resistor cable. Alternatively, two-
conductor shielded cable with the same cross-sectional area can be used. The
maximum length of the resistor cable(s) is 10 m (33 ft). For the connections, see the
power connection diagram of the drive.
ACS800-07/U7
If ordered, the resistors are factory installed in a cubicle(s) next to the drive cabinet.
Protection of frame sizes R2 to R5 (ACS800-01/U1)

It is highly recommended to equip the drive with a main contactor for safety reasons.
Wire the contactor so that it opens in case the resistor overheats. This is essential
for safety since the drive will not otherwise be able to interrupt the main supply if the
chopper remains conductive in a fault situation.
Below is a simple example wiring diagram.

Protection of frame size R6 (ACS800-01, ACS800-07) and frame sizes R7

A main contactor is not required for protecting against resistor overheating when the
resistor is dimensioned according to the instructions and the internal brake chopper
is in use. The drive will disable power flow through the input bridge if the chopper
remains conductive in a fault situation. Note: If an external brake chopper (outside
the drive module) is used, a main contactor is always required.
A thermal switch (standard in ABB resistors) is required for safety reasons. The
cable must be shielded and not longer than the resistor cable.

the drive will stop by coasting when the switch opens.

For other control programs, the thermal switch may be wired to a different digital
input. Programming of the input to trip the drive by “EXTERNAL FAULT” may be
needed. See the appropriate firmware manual.
Brake circuit commissioning

For Standard Control Program:
• Enable the brake chopper function (parameter 27.01).
• Switch off the overvoltage control of the drive (parameter 20.05).
• Check the resistance value setting (parameter 27.03).
• Frame sizes R6, R7 and R8: Check the setting of parameter 21.09. If stop by
coasting is required, select OFF2 STOP.
For the use of the brake resistor overload protection (parameters 27.02...27.05),
consult an ABB representative.
WARNING! If the drive is equipped with a brake chopper but the chopper is not
enabled by parameter setting, the brake resistor must be disconnected because the
protection against resistor overheating is then not in use.
For settings of other control programs, see the appropriate firmware manual.

This chapter contains guidelines for selecting and installing a non-ABB du/dt filter
with the drive.
When a du/dt filter must be used

A du/dt filter must be used with drives of voltages from 500 V to 690 V according to
the Requirements table on page 32.
Filter and installation requirements

1. The filter is an LCR filter or an L filter (i.e. a series inductor: three single-phase
inductors or one three-phase inductor).
Check that the approximate per-phase impedance of the filter inductor is 1.5 %
for drives of frame size R7 and 2 % for drives of frame size R8 when calculated
as follows:
3 ⋅ IN
Z = 2⋅π⋅f ⋅ L ⋅ ------------------ ⋅ 100
L N U
N
where
ZL = impedance of the inductor divided by the nominal phase impedance of the motor, in
percentage
L = per-phase inductance of the filter
fN = rated motor frequency
IN = rated motor current
UN = rated motor voltage.
Note: Impedances over 1.5 % or 2 % can be used, but then the voltage drop
across the filter will be increased, thus reducing the pull-out torque and attainable
power.
2. The du/dt value of the inverter output voltage is approximately 5 kV /
