Please read the warning information carefully. ® VACON 20 X is a drive designed to control asynchronous AC motors and permanent magnet mo- tors. The product is intended to be installed in a restricted access location and for a general pur- pose use.
(if no keypad is attached, see the indicators on the cover). Wait an ® additional 30 seconds before starting any work on the connections of VACON X Drive. After expiration of this time, use measuring equipment to absolutely ensure that no voltage is present.
Before performing any measurement on the motor or the motor cable, disconnect the motor cable from the AC drive. ® Do not perform any voltage withstand test on any part of VACON 20 X. The tests shall be performed according to a specific procedure. Ignoring this procedure may damage the product.
CAUTION! ® The VACON 20 X AC drive must always be grounded with a grounding conductor connected to the grounding terminal marked with Since the touch current exceeds 3.5 mA AC (for the three-phase version), according to EN61800-5- 1, the drive must have a fixed connection and provision of an additional terminal for a second pro- tective grounding conductor of the same cross-sectional area as the original protective grounding conductor.
Page 10
® In VACON 20 X, the phase conductor and the corresponding protective grounding conductor can be of the same cross-sectional area, provided they are made of the same metal (because the cross- sectional area of the phase conductor is less than 16 mm...
IEC 61800-5-1) and the GND terminals are referred to PE. This is important when you need to connect other circuits to the drive and test the complete assem- ® bly. Should you have any doubts or questions, please contact your local VACON distributor. CONTROL UNIT...

This chapter describes the Safe Torque Off (STO) function which is a functional safety feature pres- ® ent into VACON 20 X drive products as standard. This function is available only in the three-phase version. General description The STO function brings the motor in no-torque-state as defined by 4.2.2.2 of the IEC 61800-5-2: “Power that can cause rotation (or motion in the case of a linear motor) is not applied to the motor.
Safe Torque Off vacon • 103 Standards The STO function has been designed for use in accordance with the following standards: Table 42. Safety Standards. Standards IEC 61508, Parts 1-7 EN 61800-5-2 EN 62061 ISO 13849-1 EN 954-1 IEC 60204-1 The STO function has to be applied correctly to achieve the desired level of operational safety.
® In VACON 20 X, the STO function is realized by preventing the propagation of the control signals to the inverter circuit. The inverter power stage is disabled through redundant disabling paths which start from the two separated and galvanically isolated STO inputs (S1-G1, S2-G2 in Figure 70).
The reaction time of the STO function is the amount of time which passes from the moment in which ® the STO is demanded until the system is in the Safe State. For VACON 20 X, the reaction time is 20 ms maximum.
• 106 Safe Torque Off Connections To make the STO function available and ready to be used, both STO jumpers have to be removed. They have been located in front of the STO terminal to mechanically prevent the insertion of the STO inputs.
Safe Torque Off vacon • 107 Safety Capability Cat.4 / PL e / SIL 3 9.5.1 For this safety capability, an external safety device must be installed. This must be used to dynam- ically activate the STO inputs and to monitor the STO output feedback.
Page 110
• 108 Safe Torque Off The picture below shows an example of connection for the STO function. The external device has to be connected with 6 wires to the drive. EXTERNAL DEVICE POWER UNIT DC+/R+ DC-* Reinforced Figure 73. STO example with automatic monitoring of the feedback and both STO inputs used.
Safe Torque Off vacon • 109 Safety Capability Cat. 3 / PL e / SIL 3 9.5.2 The safety capability is reduced to Cat. 3 / PL e / SIL 3 if the STO inputs are statically used (which means they are forced to commute together).
• 110 Safe Torque Off Safety Capability Cat.1 / PL c / SIL 1 9.5.4 Without any automatic monitoring of STO output feedback, the safety capability is reduced to Cat. 1 / PL c / SIL 1. The STO inputs (which can be connected in parallel) must be supplied by a safety push button or a safety relay.
Safe Torque Off vacon • 111 Commissioning 9.6.1 General wiring instructions Protect the STO cabling with a shielding or an enclosure to exclude external damage. Wires ferrules are highly recommended for all STO signals (inputs and feedback). The wiring should be done according to the general wiring instructions for the specific product. A shielded cable is required.
• 112 Safe Torque Off Parameters and fault tracing There are no parameters for the STO function itself. Before testing the STO function, make sure that the checklist (Table 49) is inspected and completed. When STO function is demanded, the drive always generates a fault (“F30”) and the motor stops by coasting.
Safe Torque Off vacon • 113 Maintenance and diagnostics If any service or repair has to be conducted on the drive installed, please inspect the checklist given in Table 49. During maintenance breaks, or in case of service/repair, ALWAYS make sure that the STO function is available and fully functional by testing it.
• 114 Solar pump application OLAR PUMP APPLICATION ® The installation instructions in this chapter are intended only for VACON 20 X Drives with addition- al solar pump application. 10.1 Danger ® The terminals are live when the VACON 20 X Drive is connected to a photovoltaic system.
® When VACON 20 X is used in the Solar Pump application, a diode must be connected between DC+ and DC- to protect the inverter against reverse voltage. See tables below for diode specification. Table 55. Diode specification, Mains voltage 3AC 208-240V, 50/60 Hz, up to 400V in VDC...
The photovoltaic system has to be dimensioned in order to not exceed the values specified in the tables below. ® Table 58. VACON 20 X (208…240V 3AC 50/60Hz) DC-link input ratings Enclosure Max. Recommended PV Array Power AC drive type...
