The rise time and peak voltage can affect the service life of the motor. Beijer Electronics recommend using an output choke for motor cable lengths of 50m or more to ensure good motor service life.
11.7. Additional Information for UL Compliance Beijer BFI-H3 is designed to meet the UL requirements. For an up to date list of UL compliant products, please refer to UL listing NMMS:E36531 1. In order to ensure full compliance, the following must be fully observed.
11.8.1. IP20 Drive Models All Beijer BFI-H3 models provide a simple method to disconnect the internal EMC filter and surge protection varistors by fully removing the screws shown below. This should only be carried out where necessary, for example in cases such as IT or ungrounded supplies, where the phase to ground voltage can exceed the phase to phase voltage.
If the required motor current exceeds this level, it will be necessary to either: Reduce the switching frequency selected; or Use a higher power rated drive and repeat the calculation to ensure sufficient output current is available. www.beijerelectronics.com Version 3.08 | Beijer BFI-H3 User Guide | 75...
