Operation principle The line-side and motor-side converters have their own RDCU control units and control programs. The parameters of each program can be viewed and changed using one control panel. The converter to be controlled can be selected using the control panel;...
AC voltage and current waveforms The AC current is sinusoidal at a unity power factor. The IGBT supply unit does not generate characteristic current or voltage overtones like a traditional 6- or 12-pulse bridge does. The Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) in voltage depends slightly on the Short Circuit Ratio in the Point of Common Coupling (PCC).
Motor-side converter The motor control is based on the Direct Torque Control (DTC) method. Two phase currents and DC link voltage are measured and used for the control. The third phase control is measured for earth fault (ground fault) protection. The motor-side converter is controlled by an RDCU drive control unit located in the swing-out frame of the cabinet.
Door switches Main switch-disconnector (Q1 in frame size R6 to R8i) The switch-disconnector handle switches the main and auxiliary voltages to the drive on and off. Air circuit breaker (Q1 in frame size 2×R8i and up) The air circuit breaker controls the main supply voltage (phases L1, L2 and L3). For more information on using the breaker, refer to its manual.

Supply (AC line) cable short-circuit protection Always protect the input cable with fuses. In networks with a short-circuit withstand of 65 kA or less, standard gG fuses can be used. No fuses need be installed at the drive input. If the drive is supplied through busbars, fuses must be installed at the drive input. In networks with a short-circuit withstand of less than 50 kA, standard gG fuses are sufficient.
Prevention of unexpected start The drive can be equipped with an optional prevention of unexpected start function according to standards IEC/EN 60204-1: 1997; ISO/DIS 14118: 1996 and EN 1037: 1996. The circuit conforms to EN954-1, Category 3. The function is achieved by disconnecting the control voltage to the power semiconductors of the inverters of the drive.
Selecting the power cables General rules Dimension the supply (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.
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.
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 VAC cable is accepted for up to 500 VAC. 1000 VAC cable is required above 500 VAC (below 600 VAC).
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 to the motor cables (between the drive and the motor).
Before opening an output contactor (in DTC motor control mode) 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 Firmware Manual of the drive for the required parameter settings.) Otherwise, the contactor will be damaged.
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. Coaxial cable (for use with Advant Controllers AC 80/AC 800) •...
