Switch off the supply and wait at least 10 seconds before touching any part of the drive.
  • Page 7 If condensation is likely to occur when the drive is not in use, install an anti- condensation heater. This heater must be switched off when the drive is in use; automatic switching is recommended. Install the drive so that the heatsink fins are vertical for best flow of cooling air. Observe the requirements for ambient temperature if the drive is to be mounted directly above any heat generating equipment (such as another drive).

  • Page 13: Grounding

    Grounding To avoid intermittent tripping of the drive, use a single ground point for the supply and signal circuits. A grounding bar of appropriate size can be used. This must be mounted on insulated supports as close as possible to the drive and connected to the chassis ground using cable of 10mm to 20mm .

  • Page 18: Setting Up The Drive

    Setting up the drive Set up the drive by adjusting potentiometers and replacing specific capacitors and fixed resistors. These components are fitted to socket SK1. If a drive is replaced, the socket can be transferred to the replacement drive in order to keep the settings. Adjusting the potentiometers Five potentiometers are labelled as follows: RAMP...

  • Page 23: Motor Phasing

    Motor phasing If the motor connections are not correct, the motor could rotate at a high speed in an unspecified direction. Before testing the motor, disconnect the motor from the machine and ensure the AC supply can be quickly disconnected from the drive. WARNING 1.
  • Page 24 Figure 4-3 Waveform resulting from insufficient proportional gain 11. The waveform could be as shown in Figure 4-3. In this case, the system has insufficient dynamic gain. Turn the PROPORTIONAL potentiometer clockwise to obtain a waveform without oscillation. 12. When a waveform without oscillation has been obtained, in most cases the response will have an overshoot as shown in Figure 4-4.
