010.3210.0619 06.21 2.7 EMC FILER DISCONNECT Drives with an EMC filter have an inherently higher leakage current to Ground (Earth). For applications where tripping occurs the EMC filter can be disconnected (on IP20 units only) by completely removing the EMC screw on the side of the product.
010.3210.0619 06.21 3. MECHANICAL INSTALLATION 3.1 GENERAL The EDrive E3 should be mounted in a vertical position only, on a flat, flame resistant, vibration free mounting using the integral mounting holes or DIN Rail clip (Frame Sizes 1 and 2 only).
010.3210.0619 06.21 3.4 REMOVING THE TERMINAL COVER To access the connection terminals, the drive front cover needs to be removed. Removing the 2 screws on the front of the product allows access to the connection terminals, as shown to the right 3.5 ROUTINE MAINTENANCE The drive should be included within the scheduled maintenance program so that the installation maintains a...
4.2 GROUNDING GUIDELINES DANGER The ground terminal of each EDrive E3 should be individually This EDrive E3 contains high voltage capacitors connected DIRECTLY to the source breaker panel ground bus that take time to discharge after removal of bar (through the filter if installed).
A fixed installation is required according to IEC61800-5-1 with a suitable disconnecting device installed between the EDrive E3 and the AC Power Source. The disconnecting device must conform to the local safety code / regulations (e.g. within Europe, EN60204-1, Safety of machinery).
The motor should be connected to the EDrive E3 U, V, and W terminals using a suitable 3 or 4 core cable. Where a 3 core cable is utilised, with the shield operating as an earth...

Used to display real-time information, to access and exit parameter NAVIGATE edit mode and to store parameter changes Used to increase speed in real-time mode or to increase parameter values in parameter edit mode Used to decrease speed in real-time mode or to decrease parameter DOWN...
5.7 LED DISPLAY The EDrive E3 has a built in 6-digit 7-Segment LED display. In order to display certain warning, the following methods are used. 5.7.1 LED Display Layout Fig 7 See Fig 5 5.7.2 LED Display Meaning...
010.3210.0619 06.21 6. PARAMETERS 6.1 STANDARD PARAMETERS The parameter set is arranged in Groups according to the following structure: Access to all parameter groups is controlled by setting P-14 as follows: P-14 = P-37 (Factory setting: 101) Allows Extended Parameter Access P-14 = P-37 + 100 (Factory Setting: 201) Allows Advanced Parameter Access In order to prevent possible damage to the drive and connected machinery, certain parameters are locked during operation of the drive to prevent change.
Working in RPM ( Relevant Parameters) EDrive E3 normally uses frequency for all speed related parameters, e.g. Minimum and Maximum Output Frequency. It is also possible to work directly in RPM, by setting the above parameter to the relevant rated speed from the connected motor...
Page 23
010.3210.0619 06.21 When set to the default value of zero, all speed related parameters are displayed in Hz, and slip compensation for the motor is disabled. Entering the value from the motor nameplate enables the slip compensation function, and the EDrive display will also now show motor speed in RPM.
Page 24
010.3210.0619 06.21 Speed Limits ( Relevant Parameters) These parameters define the range of output frequency and therefore the speed range through which the drive will operate. As described above: • If P-10 = 0, Values are Hz • If P-10 <> 0, Values are RPM Dependent on the speed reference selection, the operation will be as follows: For Analog Speed Reference: Applying 0% analog signal results in the speed reference of P-02.

010.3210.0619 06.21 Motor Energy Optimisation: Reduces energy losses in the motor under part load conditions by reducing motor flux. This function should not be used in applications which have large sudden load step changes, or for PI control applications, as it may cause instability in the control or over current trip.

Current Limit ( Relevant Parameters) 6.3.4 Advanced Functions Autotune ( Relevant Parameters) Motor Control Methods EDrive E3 may be used with the following motor types: • A synchronous Induction Motors (IM) • S ynchronous Permanent Magnet AC Motors (PM) • Brushless DC Motors (BLDC) •...
Page 34
Asynchronous Induction Motors (IM) Vector Control EDrive E3 factory default parameters are intended for use with IM motors where the power rating of the motor is approximately the same or slightly less than the indicated power rating of the drive. In this case, it should be possible to operate the motor without any parameter adjustment at all for initial testing.
Page 35
Synchronous Permanent Magnet AC Motors (PM), BLDC Motors and LSPM Motors Suitable Motors EDrive E3 provides open loop control of permanent magnet AC motors including BLDC and LSPM type, intended to allow the use of high efficiency motors in simple applications. Both interior and exterior magnets type motors are supported.
Page 36
010.3210.0619 06.21 • Select the appropriate motor type in P-51 For PM motor control P-51 = 2 For BLDC motor control P-51 = 3 For LSPM motor control P-51 = 5 • Carry out an Autotune. An Autotune MUST be carried out. This is achieved by setting P-52 = 1.
Register number for each parameter P-04 to P-60 is defined as 128 + Parameter number, e.g. for parameter P-15, the register number is 128 + 15 = 143. Internal scaling is used on some parameters, for further details, please contact your ENERVEX Representative.
