Description Braking chopper Conducts the energy generated by a decelerating motor from the DC bus to a braking resistor. The braking chopper is built in the ACSM1; braking resistors are external options. Braking resistor Dissipates the braking energy by converting it to heat.
Please note that the installation must, however, 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.
Free space requirements The modules and their regen filter modules can be installed side by side. The main dimensions of the regen supply module as well as free space requirements are shown below. For more details, refer to the chapter Dimension drawings.

The ACSM1-204 is to be mounted in an upright position. The wall the module is to be mounted on must be even, of non-flammable material and strong enough to carry the weight of the module.
Installation procedure Direct wall mounting of the regen supply module 1. Mark the locations for the four holes. The mounting points are shown in Dimension drawings. 2. Fix the screws or bolts to the marked locations. 3. Position the regen supply module onto the screws on the wall. Note: Only lift the regen supply module by its chassis.
Cold plate mounting (ACSM1-204Cx-xxxx-x, frames C and D only) For cold plate cooling characteristics, see page 71. 1. Determine the locations for the four fixing points on the cold plate. The fixing points of the regen supply module are shown in the dimension drawings on page (frame C) or (frame D).

ACSM1-04 drives (frame sizes A…D). Note: The ACSM1-204 regen supply module is not designed to be started under load. If the DC bus is loaded when the ACSM1-204 tries to start, the start attempt may fail.
AC. Due to this, the charging capacity of the supply module(s) has to be checked. The ACSM1 drive and supply modules in frame sizes A-D have a charging circuit in series with the capacitor bank.
• The regen supply module and regen filter module cannot prevent power flow from the grid to the DC bus and further to the ACSM1-04 drives. Even if the modulation of the ACSM1-204 regen supply module is stopped, the anti-parallel diodes of the inverter bridge in ACSM1-204 enable power flow to the DC bus and to the motor inverters.
Supply disconnecting device Install a hand-operated input disconnecting device (disconnecting means) between the AC power source and the regen supply module. The disconnecting device must be of a type that can be locked to the open position for installation and maintenance work.
The protective characteristics of circuit breakers depend on the supply voltage as well as the type and construction of the breakers. There are also limitations pertaining to the short-circuit capacity of the supply network. Your local ABB representative can help you in selecting the breaker type when the supply network characteristics are known.
Selecting the power cables General rules Dimension the power cables according to local regulations. • The cable must be able to carry the regen supply module load current. See the chapter Technical data for the rated currents. ° • The cable must be rated for at least 70 C (US: 75 °C [167 °F]) maximum permissible temperature of conductor in continuous use.

Heatsink The heatsink fins pick up dust from the cooling air. The regen supply module runs into overtemperature warnings and faults if the heatsink is not clean. In a normal environment, the heatsink should be checked annually, in a dusty environment more often.
If the regen supply module is operated in a critical part of a process, fan replacement is recommended once these symptoms start appearing. Replacement fans are available from ABB. Do not use other than ABB-specified spare parts. Fan replacement (Frames A and B) Detach the power cable clamp plate and terminal blocks.
Fan replacement (Frames C and D, ACSM1-204Ax-xxxx-x) To remove the fan, release the retaining clip (arrowed) carefully using a screwdriver. Pull the fan holder out. Disconnect the fan cable. Carefully bend the clips on the fan holder to free the fan.
Fan replacement (Frames C and D, ACSM1-204Cx-xxxx-x) Unfasten the fan holder by removing the two screws marked (1) in the drawing below. Pull the fan holder out and disconnect the wire plug (2). Remove the four screws (3) to release the fan from the holder. Use the spacers (4) to mount the new fan.
Replacing the cooling fan of the WFU filter To remove the fan, release the retaining clips (arrowed). Pull the fan holder out. Disconnect the fan cable. Carefully bend the clips on the fan holder to free the fan. Install a new fan in reverse order. Note: The airflow direction is bottom-to-top.

The regen supply module is intended to be incorporated into machinery to constitute machinery covered by Machinery Directive (98/37/EC) and does therefore not in every respect comply with the provisions of the directive. For more information, see the Declaration of Incorporation by ABB Drives (code 6884199).
Overload protection – The regen supply module provides overload protection in accordance with the National Electrical Code (US). Braking – The ACSM1-204 has an internal braking chopper. When applied with appropriately sized braking resistors, the braking chopper will allow the regen supply module to dissipate regenerative energy (normally associated with quickly decelerating a motor).
Braking resistor selection Pre-selected resistors are available from ABB as shown in the table below. If the listed resistor is not sufficient for the application, a custom resistor can be selected within the limits imposed by the internal braking chopper of the ACSM1-204. The following rules apply: •...
