Installation/Wiring AC Supply Source Considerations PowerFlex 70 drives are suitable for use on a circuit capable of delivering up to a maximum of 200,000 rms symmetrical amperes, and a maximum of 600 volts. ATTENTION: To guard against personal injury and/or equipment damage caused by improper fusing or circuit breaker selection, use only the recommended line fuses/circuit breakers specified in Appendix...
Installation/Wiring source. This impedance could come from the supply transformer itself, the cable between the transformer and drive or an additional transformer or reactor. The impedance can be calculated using the information supplied in the Wiring and Grounding Guidelines for Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) AC Drives, publication DRIVES-IN001….
Installation/Wiring RFI Filter Grounding Using an optional RFI filter may result in relatively high ground leakage currents. Therefore, the filter must only be used in installations with grounded AC supply systems and be permanently installed and solidly grounded (bonded) to the building power distribution ground. Ensure that the incoming supply neutral is solidly connected (bonded) to the same building power distribution ground.
Page 18
Installation/Wiring Unshielded THHN, THWN or similar wire is acceptable for drive installation in dry environments provided adequate free air space and/or conduit fill rates limits are provided. Do not use THHN or similarly coated wire in wet areas. Any wire chosen must have a minimum insulation thickness of 15 mils and should not have large variations in insulation concentricity.

Installation/Wiring 1-11 Disconnecting MOVs and Common Mode Capacitors PowerFlex 70 drives contain protective MOVs and common mode capacitors that are referenced to ground. To guard against drive damage, these devices should be disconnected if the drive is installed on an ungrounded distribution system where the line-to-ground voltages on any phase could exceed 125% of the nominal line-to-line voltage.
1-12 Installation/Wiring I/O Wiring Important points to remember about I/O wiring: • Use copper wire only. Wire gauge requirements and recommendations are based on 75 degree C. Do not reduce wire gauge when using higher temperature wire. • Wire with an insulation rating of 600V or greater is recommended. •...

Installation/Wiring 1-15 Hardware Enable Circuitry (Enhanced Control Only) By default, the user can program a digital input as an Enable input. The status of this input is interpreted by drive software. If the application requires the drive to be disabled without software interpretation, a hardware enable configuration can be utilized.

1-16 Installation/Wiring Encoder Interface (Enhanced Control Only) The PowerFlex Encoder Interface can source 5 or 12 volt power and accept 5 or 12 volt single ended differential inputs. Table 1.J Terminal Description No. Signal Description 5-12V Power Internal power source 250 mA (isolated). Power Return Encoder B (NOT) Single channel or quadrature B input.
Installation/Wiring 1-19 Speed Reference Control “Auto” Speed Sources The drive speed command can be obtained from a number of different sources. The source is determined by drive programming and the condition of the Speed Select digital inputs, Auto/Manual digital inputs or reference select bits of a command word.
1-20 Installation/Wiring Auto/Manual Examples PLC = Auto, HIM = Manual A process is run by a PLC when in Auto mode and requires manual control from the HIM during set-up. The Auto speed reference is issued by the PLC through a communications module installed in the drive. Since the internal communications is designated as Port 5, [Speed Ref A Sel] is set to “DPI Port 5”...
Installation/Wiring 1-21 EMC Instructions CE Conformity Conformity with the Low Voltage (LV) Directive and Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Directive has been demonstrated using harmonized European Norm (EN) standards published in the Official Journal of the European Communities. PowerFlex Drives comply with the EN standards listed below when installed according to the instructions in this manual and the Wiring and Grounding Guidelines for Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) AC Drives, publication DRIVES-IN001.
Page 34
• When operated on a public supply system, it is the responsibility of the installer or user to ensure, by consultation with the distribution network operator and Rockwell Automation if necessary, that applicable requirements have been met. Essential Requirements for CE Compliance Conditions 1-6 listed below must be satisfied for PowerFlex drives to meet the requirements of EN61800-3.

Programming and Parameters File-Group-Parameter View This simplifies programming by grouping parameters that are used for similar functions. The parameters are organized into 6 files in Basic Parameter view or 7 files in Advanced Parameter view. Each file is divided into groups, and each parameter is an element in a group. By default, the LCD HIM displays parameters by File-Group-Parameter view.

Application Notes Skip Frequency Figure C.2 Skip Frequency Frequency Command Frequency Drive Output Frequency Skip + 1/2 Band 35 Hz Skip Frequency 30 Hz Skip – 1/2 Band 25 Hz Time Some machinery may have a resonant operating frequency that must be avoided to minimize the risk of equipment damage.
Page 143
Application Notes Skip Frequency Examples The skip frequency will have Max. Frequency hysteresis so the output does not toggle between high and low values. Three distinct bands can be Skip Band 1 Skip Frequency 1 programmed. If none of the skip bands touch or overlap, each band has its own high/low limit.
Application Notes Stop Mode Mode Description Coast to Output Voltage Stop Output Current Motor Speed Time Coast Time is load dependent Stop Command This method releases the motor and allows the load to stop by friction. 1. On Stop, the drive output goes immediately to zero (off). 2.

Application Notes Mode Description Ramp to Output Voltage Stop Output Current Motor Speed Output Current Output Voltage Hold Level Time DC Hold Time Stop Zero Command Command Speed This method uses drive output reduction to stop the load. 1. On Stop, drive output will decrease according to the programmed pattern from its present value to zero.
Page 146
Application Notes Mode Description Fast Output Voltage Brake Output Current Motor Speed Time Stop Command This method uses drive output reduction to stop the load. 1. On Stop, the drive output will decrease according to the programmed pattern from its present value to zero at the rate determined by the programmed active [Decel Time x].
Application Notes Motor Overload For single motor applications the drive can be programmed to protect the motor from overload conditions. An electronic thermal overload I function emulates a thermal overload relay. This operation is based on three parameters; [Motor NP FLA], [Motor OL Factor] and [Motor OL Hertz] (parameters 042, 048 and 047, respectively).
Application Notes [Motor NP FLA] is multiplied by [Motor OL Factor] to select the rated current for the motor thermal overload. This can be used to raise or lower the level of current that will cause the motor thermal overload to trip. The effective overload factor is a combination of [Motor OL Hertz] and [Motor OL Factor].
Application Notes Start At PowerUp When Start At Powerup in 2 wire control is configured, the drive will start if all start permissive conditions are met (within 10 seconds of drive power being applied), and the terminal block start input (Run, Run Forward or Run Reverse for 2-wire) is closed.
C-10 Application Notes Overspeed Overspeed Limit is a user programmable value that allows operation at maximum speed, but also provides an “overspeed band” that will allow a speed regulator such as encoder feedback or slip compensation to increase the output frequency above maximum speed in order to maintain maximum motor speed.
Application Notes C-11 Process PI for Standard Control The internal PI function of the PowerFlex 70 provides closed loop process control with proportional and integral control action. The function is designed for use in applications that require simple control of a process without external control devices.
Page 152
C-12 Application Notes PI Enable The output of the PI loop can be turned on (enabled) or turned off (disabled). This control allows the user to determine when the PI loop is providing part or all of the commanded speed. The logic for enabling the PI loop is shown in below.
