General note on gender equality KOSTAL is aware of how language impacts on gender equality and always make an effort to reflect this in documentation. Nevertheless, for the sake of readability we are unable to use non-gender-specific terms throughout and use the masculine form instead.
Electromagnetic compatibility All VERTIMO systems have been developed taking into account the strictest EMC guidelines. All versions, that are intended for operation with single-phase 230 V or three-phase 400 V supplies and for use within the European Union, are fitted with an internal EMC filter. This EMC filter is designed to reduce the emissions fed back into the power supply by the cabling in order to meet harmonised EU standards.
When installing the drive controller ensure that sufficient cooling is Risk of electric shock! Ensure that the VERTIMO drive controller is provided. Once the drive controller is in its installation position, do VOLTAGE-FREE before starting any work.
3 Mechanical installation 3.1 General • The VERTIMO drive controller must be installed vertically on a level, flame-resistant and vibration-free installation surface using the integrated mounting holes or a DIN standard clamping plate (sizes A and B only). • Never store combustible materials in the vicinity of the drive controller.
The typical thermal loss of the drive controller is 3% of the operating load conditions. The dimensions stated above are simply guidelines. The ambient temperature of the drive controller MUST always be within the stated range. V1.20 Operating manual for VERTIMO...

The Enclosure in which the drive is installed should be free from dust and condensation; furthermore ventilation fans and air filters should be checked for correct air flow. All electrical connections should also be checked to ensure that all screwed terminals are connected tightly and that the supply lines are not displaying signs of heat damage.

Earthing guidelines The earthing terminal of each VERTIMO drive controller must be individually and DIRECTLY connected to the earthing bus (via the filter, if installed). In this setup, the earthing connectors of the drive controller must not be looped from one drive controller to another or to or from another device.
• The motor should be connected to terminals U, V and W on the VERTIMO drive controller using a suitable three- or four-wire cable. If using a two-wire cable where the shielding is acting as the earth wire, this must have at least the same cross-section as the phase wire if made from the same material.
4.8 Use of the REV/0/FWD selector switch (switched version only) By adapting the parameter settings, the VERTIMO can be configured for various applications and not just forwards or reverse running. This could usually be the case for manual/off/auto applications (also known as local/remote control) for the HVAC and pump industry.
The drive controller has an internal function protecting against thermal motor overload; if the value exceeds 100% of the parameter defined in P- 08 for a specific amount of time (e.g. 150% for 60 sec.), the drive controller is shut down in response to an error and the “I.t-trP” message is issued.

1: Reduction of maximum current limit value. When the overload accumulator reaches 90%, the output current limit is reduced internally to 100% of P-08 to avoid a “It.trp” shutdown in response to an error.
