Definition
ACS1000 air-cooled drive
Application and Motor Controller
The digital signal processor is the heart of the control system of the drive.
A cluster is a synonym for a group of hardware modules of the drive
control system.
Distributed drive control system
DDCS is an acronym for a serial communication protocol designed for data
transfer via optical fibers.
Short form for ACS1000 drive
The drive system includes all equipment used to convert electrical into
mechanical power to give motion to the machine.
Communication link dedicated for ABB drives
DriveDebug is part of ABB's DriveWare® software tools for drives using the
DDCS communications protocol. DriveDebug runs on computers with
Windows® operating systems. DriveDebug is a specialist's tool used to
diagnose, tune and troubleshoot ABB drives.
DriveWindow is a DriveWare® product. DriveWindow is a 32 bit Windows®
application for commissioning and maintaining ABB drives equipped with
optical communication links.
Frequency converter and related equipment
Electromagnetic compatibility
All measures to suppress electromagnetic disturbances caused by different
electrical equipment in the same electromagnetic environment, and to
strengthen the immunity of the equipment to such disturbances.
Earth
The conducting path (eg, conductor) between the electric equipment (eg,
frequency converter) and the earth. The electric equipment is connected to the
earth, eg, by a grounding set or a grounding switch.
Inverter unit of the drive. The INU converts the DC voltage to the required AC
motor voltage and frequency.
The IOEC module is an active input and output device for digital and
analog signals.
RMS voltage of the main power supply of the drive
Main circuit breaker
The MCB is a major protection device of the drive and is the main connection
and disconnection point between the main power supply and the drive.
Brand name for lubricants
Printed circuit board
