2 Safety Instruction and Application Advice

According to Low-Voltage Guideline 73/23/EECMachine Guideline 98/37/ECElectromagnetic Compatibility 89/336/EEC

2.1 General Information

�Trained staffIn principle, the complete installation, the initial operation and themaintenance must only be carried out by trained staff.Trained staff, according to this fundamental safety instruction, arepersons, familiar with the installation, mounting, initial and perma-nent operation of the product and, are qualified appropriately forthe work. The standards DIN VDE 0100 and DIN VDE 0110 andalso the legal national rules for prevention of accidents must bepaid attention to.

�Energized and hot surfacesDuring the operation the units can have energized and hot surfa-ces according to their protection system.

�Damages / InjuriesSubjects can be damaged and persons be injured

� when covers are removed illegally,

� during any improper use,

� when either the installation or the operation is incorrect.

�ModificationsConsult SIEB & MEYER before carrying out any modificationswithin the unit.

2.2 Appropriate Use

Definition of the concepts acc. to IEC / EN 61800-3

2.2.1 First EnvironmentEnvironment with residential districts; this environment contains also establish-ments which are directly connected without intermediate transformer to the low-vol-tage power supply network, which supplies buildings used for domestic purposes(households).

Annotation: Examples for establishments within the first environment are houses,apartments, stores or offices in residential buildings.

2.2.2 Second EnvironmentEnvironment with all remaining establishments (e.g. industrial establishments)which are not directly connected to a low-voltage power supply network, whichsupplies buildings used for domestic purposes.

Annotation: Examples for establishments within the second environment are indu-strial areas and technical areas of buildings which are supplied by a transformer.

- 10 - Frequency Converter FC72

2.2.3 PDS (Power Drive System) of Category C1PDS with a rated voltage lower than 1,000 V, which is to be used within the firstenvironment.

2.2.4 PDS of Category C2PDS with a rated voltage lower than 1,000 V, which is neither a device with connec-tor nor a movable device and which must be installed and operated for the first timeby an expert, if it is used within the first environment.

Annotation: An expert is a person or an organisation which has the necessary expe-rience for the installation and/or initial operation of drive systems including its EMCaspects.

2.2.5 PDS of Category C3PDS with a rated voltage lower than 1,000 V, which is to be used within the secondenvironment and not within the first environment.

According to EN 61800-3, the electronic power drive systems (PDS) developed bySIEB & MEYER must be used in industrial establishments which are not directlyconnected to a low-voltage power supply network, which supplies buildings in re-sidential districts (also called second environment , category C3). Products of thiskind are only partly available.Since all products by SIEB & MEYER are electronic equipment used for the opera-tion of motors, electric loads and provided for the installation into machines or partsof a stationary installation, the safety-relevant aspects of the Machine Guidelines(98/37/EWG) must be taken into account.

�If the mechanics or the electronics of the device i s modified,the conformity with the EC/EEC guidelines and thus the label will expire.

Before initial operation, make sure that the machine will not expose danger (e.g.runaway moves). The conformity according to the safety standard EN 60204-1 andEN 61800-5-1 must have been proven.

The manufacturer of the system or the machine has to meet the requirements ofthe legal values regarding the Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC). SIEB & MEY-ER�s units can be operated in industrial areas, provided the attached EMC informa-tion has been taken into consideration.

SIEB & MEYER takes care in its own EMC laboratory over their products to meetthe respective standards, when they are installed properly.

Deviations of the construction and the installation, described in the documentationand in the manual “Unit Assembly Complying EMC” require new measurements ofthe system or machine by the machine manufacturer to meet the statutory require-ments.Appropriate proceedings according to the EMC Product Standard (PDS) DIN/EN 61800-3 ensure the use in industrial areas.

� Products, not equipped with an AC supply line filter must be operated with a seriesconnected mains filter! Detailed information can be found in the chapter "Unit As-sembly Complying EMC".

FC72 Frequency Converter - 11 -

If using the drive systems in residential areas, in business and commercial areas aswell as in small trade, the user has to take additional and larger filter measure-ments.

SIEB & MEYER products meet the requirements of the Low-Voltage Guideline73/23/EEC. The coordinated standards of the series IEC / EN 50178 and IEC / EN60 204-1 in combination with IEC / EN 60 947 and IEC / EN 61800-5-1 are strictlyused for the products.

Technical data and the connection specification can be found in the respective pro-duct documents.

2.3 Transport and Storage

Make sure, that the unit is correctly used. The following points must especially betaken into consideration:� Protection against mechanical damage (transport, handling, etc.)!� Protection against dirt and humidity!� Dry and well-ventilated storage area!� No storage in the open!� Storage temperature between �25�C to +55�C (�13�F to +131�F)! Shortly it may

be +70�C (+158�F).� Protection against contact with electronic components (electrostatic discharge)!� No modification of insulating distances!

2.4 Installation

The drive components are designed for fulfilling the degree of pollution 2 accordingto IEC 61800-1 / DIN EN 50178.� The units can be loaded to their maximum up to a height of 1,000 m M.S.L

(3,281 ft M.S.L.)� For an operation in areas higher than 1,000 m M.S.L. (3,281 ft M.S.L.) the capacity

must be reduced by 15 % per 1,000 m (3,281 ft.)� The ambient air must not contain aggressive, electrically conductive or flammable

2.5 Electrical Connection

�The valid rules for prevention of accidents (e.g. VBG 1 andVBG 4) should be paid attention to, when working atcurrent-carrying units.

The electrical installation must be carried out according to the relevant electricalcodes (e.g. appropriate wire gauges, fuse protection and connections of groundconductors must be considered).

Recommendations for the installation according to the EMC (e.g. shields, connecti-on to earth and line installations) can be found in the technical documents of theunit (only for machine manufacturers). The manufacturer of the system or machinehas to meet the requirements of the legislation regarding the EMC.

� All work at and within the units must only be carried out, when they are turned offand when the AC line is cut!

� The mains supply must be protected via an overload release with restricted gui-dance for each mains phase.

� The mains line should only be connected, when the work is completed!� Before turning on the unit the first time, make sure that the connected machine will

not have runaway axes!� After turning off the unit hazardous voltages may still exist for up to 3 minutes in

the power supply (due to capacitors).� Capacitive loads must not be connected to the output phases of the servo am-

plifiers and frequency converters.� Prevent cable loops. Therefore, the units must only be connected to earth at the

provided PE connection for the mains supply line and the racks only at the provi-ded earth screw.

Basically, the operation can be made with residual current operated devices. Never-theless, like all clocked units of the power electronics, also SIEB & MEYER�s pro-ducts can lead leakage currents via the earth system. Depending on the sensitivityof the residual current operated device and the installation type, the operation alongwith the device may arise problems. The following points should be taken into con-sideration:� Use shortest motor leads possible.� Do not connect additional consumers to the same residual current operated devi-

ce.� Use a residual current operated device with high response threshold.

2.6 Operation

Systems, into which servo amplifiers and frequency converters are mounted, possi-bly must be equipped with additional protective devices according to the valid safetyinstructions (e.g. law about technical material, rules for prevention of accidents,etc.).

All doors and covers must be closed during the operation.

�In order to ensure a trouble-free operation of the installation, thescrews must always be tightened!

2.7 Maintenance

The unit, especially the fan, must be checked regularly for cleanness and functiondepending on the ambient pollution.

2.8 Guarantee

The guarantee is only granted when the points 2.1 to 2.7 are taken into considerati-on.

3 Specific Safety Instruction for FC72

3.1 Back-Magnetizing of Synchronous Motors (Field We a-kening)

Concerning synchronous motors, back-magnetizing is frequently used. Back-magneti-zing can be compared to field weakening - similar to asynchronous motors. In contrast to asynchronous motors, the synchronous motor is a voltage source dueto its permanent magnets. Depending on the motor design and the desired speed,high voltages may occur at the terminals of the motor. If the back-magnetizing of a synchronous motor is used, a current vector must beimpressed via the converter which is capable to reduce the required voltage at theterminals of the motor.

Advantage: Characteristic curves with field weakening profile can be generated -similar to asynchronous motors.

Disadvantage: If the control of the converter fails (e.g. in case of an error), high vol-tages can occur at the motor terminals which may destroy the converter if no furthermeasures are taken.

�These high voltages must absolutely be prevented!

The following limiting values are applied:

If the motor is used without additional protective arrangements, the voltage at theterminals of the motor must never exceed U = 520 Vrms which corresponds to a peakvoltage of U = 735 Vpeak. The indicated voltage values are voltages which are measu-red by means of the motor phases.

The peak voltage is calculated as follows:

voltage [V] = max. speed of the motor [krpm] × voltage constant [V/krpm]

U = n × kE

Example 1: maximum speed = 27000 rpmkE (acc. to data sheet) = 29.91 V/krpm

U = 27 krpm × 29.21 V/krpmU = 789 V

This motor must be connected using additional protective arrange-ments.

Example 2: maximum speed = 22000 rpmkE (acc. to data sheet) = 23.5 V/krpm

U = 22 krpm × 23.5 V/krpmU = 517 V

This motor can be connected without using additional protective ar-rangements.

Page 16: Frequency Converter of Series FC72 - SIEB & MEYER · LCD liquid crystal display LED light emitting diode LSB lowest significant bit MB Megabyte MC SIEB & MEYER motion controller MD

�Specific Safety Instruction

- 16 - Frequency Converter FC72

If motors are to be used which are not capable to reduce the voltage to these limitingvalues, additional components must be used. One of this additional components isthe VP module (Type: Dynamic) of SIEMENS. If the control of the converter fails, thismodule limits the voltage to a value which does not damage the frequency converter.But also these modules may work incorrectly. Therefore, the maximum voltage gene-rated at the terminals of the motor must never exceed U = 1400 Vrms. This value cor-responds to a peak voltage of U = 2000 Vpeak. Also these indicated voltage values arevoltages which are measured by means of the motor phases.

�Please contact SIEB & MEYER for a safe dimensioning of thedrive!

3.2 Wiring Example

Example: VP module; company: Siemens

The VP module must always be connected to the output terminals of the output sta-ge. The cable connecting the VP module to the converter must not be longer than1.5 m (specified by Siemens).

The signaling contact of the VP module must be connected to the "Safety Contact" ofthe converter. This makes sure that the converter stops supplying energy as soon asthe VP module is activated.

5 General Information

The frequency converters of series FC72 in modular design have especially beendeveloped for high-speed asynchronous and synchronous motors.

The control circuit used in this series offers high advantage for applications. Leastmotor losses are especially required in fields of high-speed cutting.

So far the use of frequency converters caused the generation of considerable addi-tional losses in the motor spindles. Often the operation of frequency converters wasimpossible even in idle run due to high motor temperatures. Thus, the motor capacityhad to be reduced considerably. Even for applications requiring a high surface qualityof the workpiece (e. g. molding) least thermal expansion is very important.

The widely used pulse width modulation (PWM) is especially unsuitable for high-speed spindles, since high-frequency currents (up to 30 kHz) flow in the motor due tothe high switching frequency. These currents do not support the required rotatingfield, but only additionally heat the motor. A particular disadvantage is that theadditional losses are mainly generated in the rotor, in which a cooling can hardly berealized. Therefore, SIEB & MEYER has been using different control circuits for thefrequency converters.

The new converters of the series FC72 permit to minimize the converter-dependentlosses with regard to the application. This means that in most of the applications anadditional choke is not required.

Further advantages:

� Due to the fact that additional motor inductors are not necessary, considera-ble savings in costs and size can be obtained.

� Vector-controlled motor drive with motor frequencies of up to 2,000 Hz(120,000 RPM).

� No power reduction in higher speed ranges.

� Combinable with power supply modules of other manufacturers.

� Easy to mount and to service due to modular structure.

� Large power range of 20 to 170 kVA.

� Storage and selection possibilities of four different motor parameters

� Possibility of switching from wye to delta run

5.1 Integration in Drive Systems

An operational drive combination consists of the following components:

� Frequency converter FC72XXX. The frequency converters are equipped with fastfuses for semiconductor protection.

� Mains supply unit of other manufacturers (e. g. Siemens) for the supply with540VDC to 680VDC. The mains supply unit must be equipped with a braking elec-tronics with ballast resistor, or a possibility to feed back energy.

� External 24VDC voltage supply to supply the electronics with the required auxiliaryvoltages. Current input approximately 2.0 A to 3.0 A. Usually each switch cabinetprovides a sufficient voltage supply of 24VDC.

� Speed evaluation via sine/cosine encoder or incremental encoder. (sensorlessvector control for asynchronous motors in preparation)

� Cooling system for water-cooling of the output stage heat sink (starting from powerrange 100 kVA). The cooling system of the motor spindle can be used additionally.

� Control system (CNC, PLC, PC or remote control) to control the requiredfunctions. Different interfaces are available: Profibus-DP; Interbus-S or Can-Bus(on demand) or the data transmission is realized in a conventional way via analogreference value and 24 V inputs and outputs.

� Accessories, for example motor chokes, motor filters or periphery for water-coo-ling, can be conceived by Sieb & Meyer considering the special requirements ofthe customer, and delivered on demand.

6.5 Cooling

The converter modules up to a rated power of 70 kVA are ventilated. As already des-cribed, it must be ensured that enough space is provided for the fans to take in andblow out the cooling air (see also page 26). Additionally, a regular check of the fansconcerning their function and cleanness must be carried out (see Safety Instructions,page 9).

The frequency converters with a rated power of up to 100 kVA are equipped withaluminum bodies containing liquid coolants. When using liquid coolants, the followingmust be taken into consideration:

� The inlet temperature of the coolant must not exceed 35 �C.

� The coolant must be based on water and contain a corrosion preventive.

� Antifungal additives prevent the cooling channels from clogging.

� The coolant must be purified.

� Solids must not be carried.

� The following functions must be monitored:

– temperature

– maximum pressure

– pressure loss (leak in system)

– flux quantity

� The coolant must react chemically neutral.

� The operating pressure must not exceed a maximum of 4 bar.

� Bedewing of the heatsink and the connected coolant connections must beavoided! (Bedewing is caused by high humidity in combination with high tem-peratures, especially if the coolant temperature is low.).

� The Safety Instructions starting on page 9 must be observed.

Two couplings are mounted at the bottom of the output stage module for forward andreverse feed. The flow direction must absolutely be considered (see page 30).

SIEB & MEYER uses couplings made by RECTUS of the series 21 KB (article no.21KB KS08 MPX). These connections are used for a double shut-off coupling in orderto ensure that water cannot leak.

Two plugs for plastic tubes with a diameter of 8 mm are delivered along with the con-verter (article no. 21KB KO08 MPX). Other plugs can directly be ordered at RECTUS(www.rectus.de).

Before the delivery the cooling system is checked by SIEB & MEYER in a pressuretest with 6 bar over a time period of 8 hours.

�Before works are carried out at the cooling system, the electricalequipment in the danger area must be isolated (e. g. switch cabi-net). Possible discharge times of the electrical equipment have tobe considered.

�Before electrical equipment in the danger area (e. g. switch cabi-net) is connected to the electrical mains supply, the cooling sys-tem must be checked for leaks.

7 Functional Description

With the "usual" mains supply with fixed voltage and frequency, three-phase motorscan only be driven with definite speed graduation according to the number of motorpoles. The maximum achievable speed is 3,000 RPM (3,600 RPM) for a 2-polemotor. When starting, the motor however loads the installation mains up to the 5-foldof the rated motor value, thus causing problems especially for bigger machines.

The use of frequency converters eliminates these limitations. The frequency con-verter changes the inflexible mains supply into a rotary field, continuously adjustablein voltage and frequency. As advantages, the speeds can be changed infinitely andthe starting currents can be reduced considerably.

In addition, suitable electronics can compensate parasitic characteristics of the motor,or high-dynamic control cycles can be initiated.

For the operation of three-phase motors, the following connections have to be madeat the vector-controlled frequency converters of the series FC72:

� Supply of d.c. voltage (540 VDC to 680 VDC)

� Connection of motor phases

� Motor sensor connection (speed sensors, PTC, etc.)

� Supply of +24 VDC/2.0 A to 3.0 A

� Instruction and reference value presetting

Instructions and reference values can be preset via various sources, as for exampleCNC controls or PCs with serial interface.

In order to start the motor the following conditions must be met:

� The feeding power supply module indicates "OK"

� The internal operating voltages are provided.

� The operating software must have finished its boot cycle.

� Status messages, interrupting the operation have not occurred (LEDs FC0 toFC3 are off).

� The inverter has been activated.

� The safety contact (SC) has been closed.

� The motor sensors are connected (PTC or temperature sensor and speedencoder).

�Functional Description

- 34 - Frequency Converter FC72

7.1 Speed-Controlled Operation

If the conditions mentioned in the previous section are met, all three green LEDs (ON,INE, OK) are on. If the function "Start/ " (pulse enable) has been selected, theStopmotor can be accelerated using a preset reference value. The acceleration time de-pends on the programmed values.

The frequency converter provides the signal "Speed OK" after reaching the referencefrequency. The desired job can be started.

During the operation overloads or malfunctions of either the motor or the convertermay occur. Then either the electronic protection or the current limitation functions willbe activated.

It is not required to drive the motor to "Speed Zero", if another reference value is to bepreset. Another reference value can be processed anytime, but the signal "SpeedOK" is cleared during the adaptation (time until reaching the new reference speed).

When selecting the function "Stop" or withholding the reference value, the motor isdecelerated with the programmed deceleration time.

7.2 Position-Controlled Operation

7.2.1 Position-Controlled Operation with Higher-Rank ing Con-troller

The converter permits to transmit the speed signals received by the motor sensors toa higher-ranking controller. The signals transmitted by the motor sensors are outputimpedance-converted on connector X8 (see page 54), thus permitting a higher-ran-king position control (e. g. for positioning jobs). In this operational mode the completeposition control is implemented in the higher-ranking controller.

7.2.2 Position-Controlled Operation via Internal Pos itioningFunctions

Manifold possibilities to position the rotor have already been implemented in the stan-dard software "Vector 7x" of the converter series FC72. In order to use thesefunctions the following supplementary conditions are required:

� The speed sensors of the motor must be equipped with a reference track.

Page 35: Frequency Converter of Series FC72 - SIEB & MEYER · LCD liquid crystal display LED light emitting diode LSB lowest significant bit MB Megabyte MC SIEB & MEYER motion controller MD

� Functional Description

FC72 Frequency Converter - 35 -

For an absolute positioning, the reference track must only have one zero pul-se per rotation of the rotor.

� The function "positioning" must be assigned to one of the programmable in-puts.

� The function "calibration" must be assigned to one of the programmable in-puts.

� The function "position reached" must be assigned to one of the programma-ble outputs.

� Corresponding to the application, the software parameters for the speed andposition controller must have "useful" values. These parameters can be alte-red in the converter with the software "Vector 7x" and the included parametereditor.

After turning on the converter a calibration cycle has to be activated. While calibra-ting, the rotor rotates up to a maximum of 360� and searches for the zero pulse onthe reference track of the motor sensors. After the calibration the drive is ready for thedesired operations.

It is possible to preset an offset referring to the zero pulse.

Detailed information concerning the offset input (position) can be found in the opera-ting manual "Vector7x".

7.3 Overload

The converter contains two different evaluation functions for the behavior in case ofoverload. One function evaluates the load of the converter, the other function protectsthe connected motor. The function with the lower response threshold determines thebehavior of the combination of converter and motor.

7.3.1 Overload of the Converter

As you can see in the electrical output data (page 23), the converter can be loadedwith S1, S6 and peak values.

Even at the maximum ambient temperature of 40 �C there will be no limitation, if theconverter is loaded up to S1 values.

When loading the converter with values from S1 to S6 there will be limitations, only ifthe heatsink temperature gets too high. Countermeasures can be taken, for example,by evaluating the advance warning message "heatsink temperature".

If the heatsink temperature exceeds the maximum value, the motor is deceleratedwithin the preset deceleration time to speed 0. As soon as speed 0 is reached, theoutput stage will be deactivated and the error "heatsink temperature" will be display-ed.

S6 to Peak Value

For the range of S6 to peak values the existing load is evaluated by a so-calledI2t computer. The peak value is available for about 10 s. If the load is just above theS6 value, it is available for much longer since the current is evaluated as square va-lue.

The result of the I2t evaluation is saved to a "memory" which is faster filled than emp-tied. The memory will only be emptied, if the load has fallen below the correspondingS6 value. If the memory is not completely emptied when exceeding the S6 value, thepeak value is available for a correspondingly shorter period. If the memory is full, theconverter is turned off immediately without any warning. The error message"I2t converter" is displayed.

7.3.2 Overload of the Motor

The rated values and the maximum values of the motor are usually defined by themanufacturer of the motor or the spindle and integrated into the software togetherwith the motor parameters. These values can be altered. However, the alterationrequires a corresponding user level.

Rated Value

If the motor is loaded by the converter up to the rated value, there will be no limitation.

Peak Value

If the motor is loaded with values between the rated value and the peak value, theexisting load is evaluated by a so-called I2t computer. The peak value is available fora maximum of 10 s. If the load is just above the rated value, the peak value is availa-ble for much longer since the current is evaluated as square value.

The result of the I2t evaluation is saved to a "memory" which is faster filled than emp-tied. The memory will only be emptied, if the load has fallen below the correspondingrated value. If the memory is not completely emptied when exceeding the rated value,the peak value is available for a correspondingly shorter period. If the memory is full,the converter is turned off immediately without any warning. The error message"I2t motor" is displayed.

7.4.2.1 Serial Interface (Connector X2)

This 9-pole Submin D connection permits the connection of PCs or notebooks andthe operation or programming of the frequency converter by means of the software"Vector 7x".

The pin assignment and further information can be found in the section "Terminal andConnector Assignment" (page 61 ff.).

7.4.2.2 Outputs (Connector X3)

All outputs described in the following are equipped with relay. These outputs are n/ocontacts, which are connected to the same reference point by means of a single-en-ded connection. This reference point (RP) is potential-free and provided as terminalon connector X3. These outputs are updated every 8 ms, i. e. the maximum delaytimes of the outputs are approximately tv � 8 ms.

All eight available outputs can be programmed individually concerning the selectionof the pertaining message. The assignment is realized by means of the software Vec-tor7x

Three types of messages can be distinguished:

� Messages without parameter� Messages with parameter� Logic operations of messages (similar to PLC)

7.4.2.2.1 Messages without Parameter

Ready for operation (Controller on)

In order to ensure that the converter can signal the message "Ready for Operation",the following conditions must be met:

� The 24 V supply is provided (the LED ON is on).� The feeding power supply module signals "OK"� The operating software must have finished its boot cycle.� The inverter is activated (controller enable).� The safety contact (SC) has been closed.� The motor sensors are connected (temperature sensor and speed sensor).� A status message interrupting the operation has not occurred (LEDs FC0 to FC3

are off).

� Functional Description

FC72 Frequency Converter - 43 -

Converter OK

If an error message is not provided, the message "Converter OK" is set. This messa-ge does not necessarily mean that the converter is "ready for operation".

Example:

An error message is provided, but the inverter has not been enabled.

Current limitation (Controller limit)

If the preset maximum current value for motor and/or converter is reached, this mes-sage is set. The response time (time between the occurrence of the current limitationand the activation of the relay output) takes a maximum of 8 ms. Since this signal isreacting very fast to load variations, especially in combination with a “hard” adjustedspeed controller, an “unsteady” signal output can be expected.

Calibrated

An absolute positioning of the rotor first requires a calibration. If a calibration is re-quested and executed successfully, this message is set.

Temperature Warning Converter

The function "Temperature Warning Converter" enables the user to initiate appropria-te measures without interrupting the process, before the system is turned off due toexcessive temperatures. Appropriate measures might be, for example, the reductionof the process feeds, and thus the relief of the converter.

If the warning threshold for the converter temperature is reached, this message willbe set. The predetermined warning threshold is at 85�C and cannot be varied. Theconverter is finally turned off at a temperature of 90�C.

Temperature Warning Motor

The function "Temperature Warning Motor" enables the user to initiate appropriatemeasures without interrupting the process, before the system is turned off due toexcessive temperatures. Appropriate measures can be, for example, the reduction ofthe process feeds, and thus the relief of the motor.

Premisses are:

� With the parameterization of the software the corresponding values, at which awarning is to be initiated, have been preset.

� The motor comprises a temperature sensor (PT 100 or KTY 84 ).

�If a PTC or a NTC is used, a temperature warning for the motor isnot possible.

The temperature value, at which the message "Temperature Warning Motor" is set,must be defined in the motor parameters.

Motor Overload

If the motor is loaded with values exceeding the rated current, this message is set. Anassignment to an output does only make sense, if a peak current has been defined inthe motor parameters.

Converter Overload

If the converter is loaded with values exceeding the rated current, this message is set.An assignment to an output does only make sense, if the connected motor uses theS6 range or the peak current range of the converter.

Motor (Bit 0)

This message is set, if the input "Motor (Bit 0)" has been selected with high signal(24 V), and if it has been switched to the corresponding motor parameters. I. e., themessage corresponds to an acknowledgment meaning “command received and exe-cuted”.

Motor (Bit 1)

This message is set, if the input "Motor (Bit 1)" has been selected with high signal(24 V), and if it has been switched to the corresponding motor parameters. I. e., themessage corresponds to an acknowledgment meaning “command received and exe-cuted”.

Speed Limitation (Bit 0)

This message is set if the input "Speed Limitation (Bit 0)" has been selected with highsignal (24 V) and if it has been switched to the corresponding motor parameters. I. e.,the message corresponds to an acknowledgment meaning “command received andexecuted”.

Speed Limitation (Bit 1)

This message is set if the input "Speed Limitation (Bit 1)" has been selected with highsignal (24 V) and if it has been switched to the corresponding motor parameters. I. e.,

the message corresponds to an acknowledgment meaning “command received andexecuted”.

Main Contactor

If a switching from wye to delta is executed with running motor, first the inverter mustbe deactivated (controller enable off). By means of the message "Main Contactor", itis now possible to turn off a main contactor (between converter and motor), if provi-ded. Afterwards the branches of all motor phases can be activated using the output"Wye/delta".

The basic procedure is as follows:

� inverter deactivated � main contactor off� switching from wye to delta run� main contactor on � inverter activated

After selecting the input "Wye/delta" the procedure mentioned above is executed bythe converter automatically with a preset timing. This message is activated, if themain contactor is to be turned on. See also output "Wye/delta", page 34. (Wiring ex-ample see appendix)

Wye/Delta

If a switching from wye to delta is executed with running motor, first the inverter mustbe deactivated (controller enable off) and a main contactor, if provided, between con-verter and motor must be switched off. Then the message "Wye/delta" can be usedto initiate a change-over of the branches of all motor phases.

The chronological procedure is as follows:

� inverter deactivated � main contactor off � switching from wye to delta run� main contactor on � inverter activated

After selecting the input "Wye/delta" the procedure mentioned above is executed bythe converter automatically with a preset timing. This output is active, if the wye para-meters have been selected, it is not active, if the delta parameters are used. See alsooutput "main contactor", page 34. (Wiring example see appendix)

7.4.2.2.2 Messages with Parameter

If "Messages with Parameter" are assigned to the outputs, the corresponding para-meters can be edited using the software Vector7x.

Actual current �

If the motor current is lower or equal to a preset reference current (reference value),this message is set. The reference value is entered as value in percent and corre-sponds to the pertaining parameter. A reference value of 100 % corresponds to thepeak current of the motor. If a peak current has not been preset, the rated current ofthe motor is the reference value.

Actual current >

If the motor current is higher than a preset reference current (reference value), thismessage is set. The reference value is entered as value in percent and correspondsto the pertaining parameter. A reference value of 100 % corresponds to the peakcurrent of the motor. If a peak current has not been preset, the rated current of themotor is the reference value.

Actual speed �

If the motor speed is lower or equal to a preset reference speed (reference value),this message is set. The reference value is entered as value in percent and corre-sponds to the pertaining parameter. A reference value of 100 % corresponds to themaximum speed.

Actual speed >

If the motor speed is higher than a preset reference speed (reference value), thismessage is set. The reference value is entered as value in percent and correspondsto the pertaining parameter. A reference value of 100 % corresponds to the maximumspeed.

Speed zero

The message "Speed zero" is set, if a preset reference value is not reached. Thereference value is entered in UPM and corresponds to the pertaining parameter.

� Functional Description

FC72 Frequency Converter - 47 -

Speed OK

The message "Speed OK" is set, if the preset reference speed value has been rea-ched. In order to prevent the output from switching already at very low speed devia-tions, a hysteresis (window) is set as reference value. If the actual speed value iswithin this “window”, the message "Speed OK" is set. The reference value refers tothe current reference value and is entered in %. Thus, the “window” corresponds tothe pertaining parameter.

Warning I²t motor

As already described in chapter 6.3.2 "Overload of the Motor" (page 37), a peak cur-rent can be determined for the motor. As soon as motor and converter are active(regulator on), a so-called I²t function runs in the background. If the counter readingreaches 100 %, the converter is turned off immediately, and a corresponding errormessage is displayed. In order to prevent the converter from turning off suddenly(machine standstill), this message can be used as advance warning. If the counterreading is bigger than a preset reference value, this message is set. The referencevalue corresponds to the parameter and can be entered as value from 0.0 % to 100.0%. The evaluation of current amplitude and time is preset by the settings in the motorparameters and cannot be changed when programming the outputs.

Load message

This message is set, if the current generating the torque exceeds a preset limit. Thepertaining parameter is entered in % and refers to the maximum value currently pos-sible. The maximum possible value is permanently calculated by the converter andthus permanently adapted for the comparison. The current generating the torque isproportional to the consumed active load of the motor and therefore - as a first ap-proximation - also proportional to the torque delivered at the motor shaft.

7.4.2.2.3 Logic Operations of Messages

The outputs can be combined pair-wise with basic logic functions - similar to PLCfunctions. In addition, the function of each individual output can be negated. This as-signment is realized by means of the software Vector7x.

Among other things, the following logic operations are possible:

Exchange a = b or b = aNegation a = !a or b = !bAND a = a & b or b = a & bNAND a = !(a & b) or b = !(a & b)OR a = a # b or b = a # bNOR a = !(a # b) or b = !(a # b)XOR (exclusive-OR) a = a $ b or b = a $ b

This 9-pole Submin D plug-in connection permits to connect a speed sensor. Theoutput is opto-coupled, i.e. the output pulses – 6 per revolution – are provided withisolated potentials. The factor 6 already takes the unit "minute" into consideration.Thus a simple frequency counter can be used for displaying the motor speed.

1 kHz corresponds to 10,000 RPM

For pin assignment and further information see section "Terminal and ConnectorAssignment" (starting on page 61).

If no external 24 V supply is provided for the optocoupler and/or the inputs and out-puts, an internal 24 V supply can be applied to this connector. There are two possibili-ties:

� An external +24 V supply is not provided.

In this case an internal unstabilized voltage (internal +24 V) can be used at thestandard interface.

� The load current must not exceed 100 mA.

� An external +24 V supply is provided and is to be u sed.

In this case the internal 24 V supply must not be connected with the external 24 Vsupply.

� Beware of compensating currents!

7.4.2.5 Analog Values (Connector X6)

Reference Value Input (+, –)

The converter processes preset reference values with the programmed accelerationand deceleration times. Thus, the motor is always brought guided to the new referen-ce value and is never loaded with frequency variations. The speed reference value ispreset as analog voltage value at the standard interface.

An A/D converter digitizes the reference value and leads it to the processor. In orderto generate external reference values, a reference voltage of +10 V is provided at thestandard interface.

7.4.2.6 Motor Sensors (Connector X7, X8)

At the front panel two connections are provided (connectors X7 and X8). Thefunctions of both connections are described in the following.

"Gear wheel sensor systems" have proven successful for vector-controlled drives inhigh-speed technology. These sensor systems are excited by a gear wheel profile ona rotor, and their output signals are sine, cosine, or incremental values shifted by 90�.If an absolute positioning is required, a reference track (zero track) must be provided.The gear profiles are usually equipped with 32, 64, 128, 256, or 512 teeth). Any othernumber of teeth (e. g. 100) is also possible.

Motor Sensors IN (Connector X7)

Connector X7 (15-pole male Submin D connector, pin assignment on page 69) isprovided for the connection between motor and converter. The positioning signalstransmitted by the spindle sensors are processed and passed on to the converter formonitoring and controlling purposes.

Additionally, the converter can be adjusted to different sensors for monitoring themotor temperature. As a standard, the evaluating functions for PTC, PT 100 and KTY84 can be programmed. With the sensor types PT 100 and KTY 84, a temperaturewarning can additionally be assigned to one of the programmed outputs. The connec-tion with the converter is established via the connector X7.

Motor Sensors OUT (Connector X8)

Connector X8 (15-pole female Submin D connector, pin assignment on page 71) isprovided for the connection between the converter and a higher-ranking CNC. Theload signals are transmitted with transformed impedance from the motor sensors tothe connector and permit a higher-ranking position control (e.g. for positioning tasks).

7.4.2.6.1 PTCIf a PTC is integrated into the motor as temperature sensor and the converter hasbeen programmed correspondingly, the converter triggers automatically an higher-ranking stop when the rated PTC temperature is exceeded. The motor is deceleratedto speed = 0 within the programmed deceleration time. The corresponding error mes-sage is indicated and the converter signals "not ready for operation". This error canonly be reset after the motor has been cooled down sufficiently. The response thres-hold is 3.6 k�. That means, if the wiring at the motor protection inputs reaches thevalue of 3.6 k�, the higher-ranking stop is triggered.

7.4.2.6.2 PT 100 and KTY 84For the temperature sensors PT 100 and KTY 84 linearization functions have beenprogrammed in the converter. With these functions, the current temperature of themotor can be determined. This measurement permits to transmit, for example, war-nings to the operator or to a higher-ranking control. The following requirements mustbe met:

� The corresponding temperature sensor has to be programmed.

� The warning function has been assigned to one of the programmable out-puts.

If the temperature exceeds the warning threshold, it might reach the cut-off tempera-ture. The temperatures for warning and cut-off are defined by the manufacturer of themotor and are loaded together with the motor data into the converter. Therefore theycan only be altered in the motor parameters. If the cut-off temperature is reached, ahigher-ranking stop will be triggered as described under "PTC".

The connector pins labeled with analog ground (AGND) are provided as referenceground for the analog reference value and the analog outputs.

Both grounds (GND and AGND) are connected within the converter. Therefore thereis no potential isolation between the two connections.

7.4.2.9 Input for Message "Power OK" (Connector X10)

This 4-pole Mini Combicon plug-in connection permits to connect the signal "PowerOK". In case of an error, the output possibly provided by the power module can beconnected to connector 9. The logic evaluates the information correspondingly, thuspreventing the power module from a requested activation.

The input is opto-coupled, i.e. the signal has an isolated potential and thus offers ma-ximum protection against interferences.

For pin assignment and further information see section "Terminal and Connector As-signment" (starting on page 61).

FC72 Frequency Converter - 57 -

7.4.2.10 Safety Contact (SC)

At the front panel of the converter there are two terminals labeled SC (Safety Con-tact). These terminals can be used as safety contact. If there is no connection to theseterminals, the activation of the output stage transistors is interrupted. This safetyfunction is exclusively hardware-dependent.

If in case of an emergency stop this safety contact is wired via a relay with a delayedcut-off contact, a guided stop (software) of the motor spindle can be performed beforethe power module is disconnected. Advantage: The motor is already at standstill whendisconnected and does not "spin" to stop (see wiring example).

The input meets the requirements of category 1 according to EN-954-1 and is similarto SIL1 according to IEC 61508. In order to reach a higher category, you must use asafety relay combination for emergency stop devices, interlocking devices and the likeaccording to IEC/EN 60204-1 (e.g. SRB-NA-R-C.19 by SCHMERSAL).

�Potentials (e. g. 24 V or ground) must not be applied to these ter-minals.

Wiring example:

� The relay is not delivered along with the converter.

� Initial Operation

FC72 Frequency Converter - 59 -

8 Initial Operation

For the initial operation of the converter pay attention to the chapters "Safety In-struction and Application Advice" (starting on page 9) and "Unit Assembly ComplyingEMC" (page 17).

8.1 Tips for a Trouble-Free Operation

� All lines to be connected should be as short as possible. The line cross-sectionsmust be adapted to the rated current and the wiring.

� Use shielded cables for the motor lines and for the supply lines of the standardinterface.

� The supply line for the reference value should be a separate shielded cable. If ne-cessary, the reference value should be grounded directly at the controller, not atthe frequency converter.

�Particularly in extremely electromagnetically interfered environ-ments (e.g. control cabinets with different power electronic devi-ces) a grounding of the ground potentials is favourable or evennecessary!

� All shielded cables should be connected at both ends. Shielding with largest surfa-ce and wiring without any "pig tails" is especially recommended.

� The ground of the separate switch cabinet components should be arranged radiallyto a star point (ground bus).

� Power lines and sensor or logic lines should be separated in different cable con-duits.

8.2 Connection

Before starting the connection, the module should be installed firmly according to itsapplication. In order to wire and connect the separate connecting facilities proceed asfollows:

� Set the main switch (if existing) to "0" and make sure that no dangerous contactvoltages are applied to the plug-in connections and terminal connections.

� Connect the cooling system to the output stage module (only output stages �100 kVA, page 29).

Page 60: Frequency Converter of Series FC72 - SIEB & MEYER · LCD liquid crystal display LED light emitting diode LSB lowest significant bit MB Megabyte MC SIEB & MEYER motion controller MD

�Initial Operation

- 60 - Frequency Converter FC72

� Check the cooling system for leaks.

� Assign the standard interface correspondingly. If there is no standard interfaceavailable, proceed as described under "Bus Connections" starting on page 87.

� Assign the motor sensors (connector X7, page 53) correspondingly.

� If demanded, a connection from a higher-ranking position controller to the con-troller can be established (connector X8, page 54).

� Wire the safety contact (SC) as desired (page 56).

� Connect the external 24 VDC (2.0 A to 3.0 A) to the connector X9 (24 V In-put/GND), page 72.

� If existing, connect the PC to the connector 2 (page 41).

� Connect the motor as described in "U, V, W - Motor Phases", page 75.

� Ground the modules using the connection possibilities provided at the modules.

� Connect the external power supply to the terminals +600, –600 of the convertermodule, page 76.

�The polarity (+/–) must be correct! The supply lines must be dead!

� After the careful installation of all connections activate the supply line.

Is "Controller on" selected, and is the converter

"ready for operation"?

(LEDs ON, INE, OK are on) Yes No

�Enter a low speed reference value. �Check all connections again andobserve the section "Trouble Shoo-ting", starting on page 79.Are the direction of rotation and the speed of the motor

correct? Yes No

OK � A reversion of the rotational direction might beselected at the standard interface

� The preset polarity of the reference valuemight be wrong (only with analog referencevalue presetting)

� The motor phases or the sensor signals mightbe interchanged.

� Correct the reference value or the speed.

� Check the programming.

10.3 Check of Internal Fuses after Overload

The modular system FC72 provides multiple protective measures for the electronics:

� The output stages are short-circuit proof and temperature monitored.

� Limitation of the output stage current in case of overload.

� Electronic protection of internal auxiliary voltages.

� Identification of internal overvoltages and undervoltages of the external supplyvoltage (+/– 600 V).

� Protection of the external supply voltages (+/– 600 V and 24 VDC) via fuses.

The fuses for the external supply voltages (+/– 600 V and 24 VDC) are located in thepower unit of the converter.

A common fuse (IEC 127) with 6.3 A / semi time-lag is used on the internal PCB forprotecting the external 24 VDC.

For checking or replacing the fuses the front panel of the converter module must beremoved.

�Before opening the front panel, the supply voltage (+/– 600 V)must be disconnected from the modules.

Even after turning off the supply voltage, hazardou s voltagesmay exist for up to 3 minutes in the module.

The smaller fuse with 6.3 A is located in a clamp on the lower part of the internal PCB.

The larger fuse for protecting the supply voltage (+/– 600 V) is connected via threadedbolts with the terminals and the internal PCB. This fuse must only be replaced by fu-ses for semiconductor protection having the same rated values.

The following fuses are included in the different converter modules:
