Basic safety instructions 1.4.2 Voltage test The KEB Elevator drive is dielectric-tested after assembly as part of the factory end test routine. This dielectric test is harmonized and in accordance with the requirements set forth in UL 61800, CSA C22.2 No. 274-17, ASME A17.5-2019, CSA B44.1-19, EN81, IEC 61800-5 and EN 60204-1.
Further information and the correct setting of the ‘on’ and ‘off’ timers can be found in the programming manual for the F6 elevator drive. Switching at the input For applications that require cyclic switching off and on of the drive controller, maintain an off-time of at least five min after the last switch on.
► The function of the drive controller is dependent on its parameteri- zation. Never replace without knowledge of the application. ► Modification or repair is permitted only by KEB Automation KG or KEB America Inc. authorized personnel. ► Only use original manufacturer parts.

GeneRaL eLectRicaL Data 3.4 General electrical data 3.4.1 switching frequency and temperature The drive controller cooling is designed such that the heat sink overtemperature thresh- old is not exceeded at rated conditions. A switching frequency higher than the rated switching frequency also produces higher losses and thus a higher heat sink heating. If the heat sink temperature reaches a critical threshold (T ), the switching frequen- cy will be reduced automatically step-by-step.

MAins ConneCtion 5.3.5.3 Selection of the motor cable Correct wiring techniques as well as the motor cable itself play an important role in systems with long cable lengths, i.e. MRL applications. With lower motor power ratings it becomes critical to utilize a motor cable with reduced capacitance phase-to-phase as well as phase-to-shield.
MAins ConneCtion 5.3.5.5 Motor cable cross-section and installation The ampacity of the motor conductors shall be sized based on following: • The rated current of the motor. • The adjusted value of LM09. NFPA 70 • In North America, the electric code requirements set forth in CSA C22.1 must be observed.
► Cables from the motor temperature sensor within the motor cables may only be used with double shielding! ► The temperature sensor input on the F6 drive has basic isolation. The brake can be supplied with both, internal and external voltage.
MAins ConneCtion KTY sensors are polarized semiconductors and must be operated in forward direction! Connect the anode to tA1 and the cathode to tA2!
