13006.emf
= GENERAL WARNING!
1.2 Danger
Do not touch the components of the power unit when the drive is connected to
mains. The components are live when the drive is connected to mains. A contact
with this voltage is very dangerous.
Do not touch the motor cable terminals U, V, W, the brake resistor terminals or the
DC terminals when the drive is connected to mains. These terminals are live when
the drive is connected to mains, also when the motor does not operate.
9000.emf
Do not touch the control terminals. They can have a dangerous voltage also when
the drive is disconnected from mains.
Before you do electrical work on the drive, disconnect the drive from the mains and
make sure that the motor has stopped. Lock out and tag out the power source to
the drive. Make sure that no external source generates unintended voltage during
work. Note that also the load side of the drive can generate voltage.
Wait 5 minutes before you open the cabinet door. Use a measuring device to make
sure that there is no voltage. The terminal connections and the components of the
9000 emf
drive can be live 5 minutes after it is disconnected from the mains and the motor
has stopped.
Before you connect the AC drive to mains, make sure that the coolant circulation
functions properly, and check the circulation for possible leaks.
9000 emf
Before you connect the drive to mains, make sure that the front cover and the cable
cover of the drive are closed. The connections of the AC drive are live when the
drive is connected to mains.
9000 emf
Before connecting the drive to mains make sure that the enclosure door is closed.
9000 emf
Disconnect the motor from the drive if an accidental start can be dangerous. When
there is a power-up, a power break or a fault reset, the motor starts immediately if
the start signal is active, unless the pulse control for Start/Stop logic is selected. If
the parameters, the applications or the software change, the I/O functions

1.3 Warnings
Do not move the AC drive. Use a fixed installation to prevent damage to the drive.
Do not make measurements when the AC drive is connected to mains. It can cause
damage to the drive.
Do not use spare parts that are not from the manufacturer. Using other spare parts
can cause damage to the drive.
Before you make measurements on the motor or the motor cable, disconnect the
motor cable from the AC drive.
Do not lift the AC drive from the plastic handles with an elevating device, such as jib
crane or hoist.
Do not touch the components on the circuit boards. Static voltage can cause
damage to these components.
Make sure that the EMC level of the AC drive is correct for your mains. Contact your
local distributor for instructions. An incorrect EMC level can cause damage to the
drive.
Prevent radio interference. The AC drive can cause radio interference in a domestic
environment.
If you activate the autoreset function, the motor starts automatically after an
NOTE!
automatic fault reset. See the Application Manual.
If you use the AC drive as a part of a machine, the machine manufacturer must
NOTE!
supply a mains disconnection device (refer to EN 60204-1).
The AC drive must always be grounded with a grounding conductor that is connected
to the grounding terminal that is identified with the symbol . Not using a ground-
ing conductor can cause damage to the drive.
The touch current of the drive is more than 3.5 mA AC. The standard EN 61800-5-1 tells that 1 or
more of these conditions for the protective circuit must be true.
The connection must be fixed.
a) The protective grounding conductor must have a cross-sectional area of minimum 10 mm2
Cu or 16 mm2 Al. OR
b) There must be an automatic disconnection of the mains, if the protective grounding
conductor breaks. See Chapter 6. OR
c) There must be a terminal for a second protective grounding conductor in the same cross-
sectional area as the first protective grounding conductor.
The values of the table are valid only if the protective grounding conductor is made of the same
metal as the phase conductors. If this is not so, the cross-sectional area of the protective grounding
conductor must be determined in a manner that produces a conductance equivalent to that which
results from the application of this table.
The cross-sectional area of each protective grounding conductor that is not a part of the mains cable
or the cable enclosure, must be a minimum of:
Because there are high capacitive currents in the AC drive, it is possible that the
NOTE!
fault current protective switches do not operate correctly.
If you use a fault protection relay, it must be of at least type B, preferably B+ (accord-
ing to EN 50178), with a trip level of 300 mA. This is for fire protection, not for touch
protection in grounded systems.
13006.emf
The earth fault protection inside the AC drive protects only the AC drive itself against
earth faults in the motor or the motor cable. It is not intended for personal safety.
Do not do voltage withstand tests on the AC drive. The manufacturer has already
done the tests. Doing voltage withstand tests can cause damage to the drive.
Before you start the motor, check that it is mounted properly and
make sure that the machine connected to the motor allows the
motor to be started.
Before reversing the motor make sure that this can be done safely.
Make sure that the motor terminals are not connected to mains
potential.

2. EU DIRECTIVE
2.1 CE marking
The CE marking on the product guarantees the free movement of the product within the EEA
(European Economic Area).
VACON® NX AC drives carry the CE label as a proof of compliance with the Low Voltage Directive and
the Electro Magnetic Compatibility Directive (EMC). The company SGS FIMKO has acted as the
Competent Body.
2.2.1 General
The EMC Directive provides that the electrical apparatus must not excessively disturb the
environment it is used in, and, on the other hand, it must have an adequate level of immunity toward
other disturbances from the same environment.
The compliance of VACON® NX Liquid-Cooled AC drives with the EMC directive is verified with
Technical Construction Files (TCF) checked and approved by SGS FIMKO, which is a Competent
Body. The Technical Construction Files are used to authenticate the conformity of VACON® AC drives
with the Directive because such a large-sized product family is impossible to be tested in a
laboratory environment and because the combinations of installation vary greatly.
Our basic idea was to develop a range of AC drives offering the best possible usability and cost-
efficiency. EMC compliance was a major consideration from the outset of the design.
VACON® NX Liquid-Cooled AC drives are marketed throughout the world, a fact which makes the
EMC requirements of customers different. As far as the immunity is concerned, all VACON® NX
Liquid-Cooled AC drives are designed to fulfil even the strictest requirements.
VACON® NX Liquid-Cooled AC drive and inverter modules delivered from factory fulfil all EMC
immunity requirements (standard EN 61800-3).
The basic liquid cooled modules do not have any inherent emission filtering. If filtering is needed
and a certain EMC emission level is required, external RFI filters must be used.
Class N:
The VACON® NX Liquid-Cooled drives of this class do not provide EMC emission protection. This
kind of drives are mounted in enclosures. External EMC filtering is usually required to fulfil the EMC
emission requirements.
Class T:
The T-class AC drives have a smaller earth leakage current and are intended to be used with IT
supplies only. If they are used with other supplies no EMC requirements are complied with.
Warning: This is a product of the restricted sales distribution class according to IEC 61800-3. In a
domestic environment this product may cause radio interference in which case the user may be
required to take adequate measures.
NX_5 = 380 - 500 VAC drives -> DC link voltage = 465 - 800 VDC
NX_6 = 525 - 690 VAC drives -> DC link voltage = 640 - 1100 VDC
NX_8 = 525 - 690 VAC drives -> DC link voltage = 640 - 1200 VDC
2.2.4.1 IT networks
The grounding of input capacitors made by default with the grounding screw at terminal X41 of the
bus board in all drives is imperative in all variations of TN/TT networks. Should a drive originally
purchased for TN/TT networks be used in an IT network, the screw at X41 must be removed. It is
strongly recommended that this be done by Danfoss personnel. Ask you local distributor for more
information.

*) Note, the control unit of NX_8 (voltage class 8) drives need to be supplied with a external 24 Vdc power
source.
If the AC drive is to be kept in store before use make sure that the ambient conditions are acceptable:
Storing temperature –40…+70 °C (no cooling liquid inside cooling element allowed below 0 ºC
Relative humidity <96%, no condensation
If the storage time exceeds 12 months the electrolytic DC capacitors need to be charged with
caution. Therefore, such a long storage time is not recommended. See Chapter 9.3 and the VACON®
NX Liquid-Cooled Drives Service Manual for instructions on charging. See also Chapter 3.3.
Warning: Always remove all cooling agent from the cooling element(s) before shipping to avoid
damage caused by freezing.
3.3 Maintenance
In case the AC drive is used in conditions with temperatures below the freezing point and the liquid
used for cooling is likely to freeze, be sure to empty the cooling element if the AC drive must be
moved or if it is taken out of use for a longer time. See also Chapter 3.2.
It may also be necessary to clean up the coolant ducts in the cooling element. Contact the factory
for more information.
The instructions for the cooling system provided by its manufacturer must be followed.

3.4 Warranty
Only manufacturing defects are covered by the warranty. The manufacturer assumes no
responsibility for damages caused during or resulting from transport, receipt of the delivery,
installation, commissioning or use.
The manufacturer shall in no event and under no circumstances be held responsible for damages
and failures resulting from misuse, wrong installation, unacceptable ambient temperature, running
motor with lower coolant flow than minimum flow, condensation, dust, corrosive substances or
operation outside the rated specifications.
Neither can the manufacturer be held responsible for consequential damages.
NOTE! VACON® NX Liquid-Cooled drives must not be run with the liquid cooling system
disconnected. Furthermore, the requirements of the liquid cooling specifications, e.g. minimum
flow rate (see Chapter 5.2 and Table 15) must be satisfied. Ignoring this will render the warranty
null and void.
NOTE! VACON® Liquid-Cooled NX_8 inverter unit must be equipped with a du/dt- or sine-filter. The
warranty is void in case filter are not used with these units.
The Manufacturer's time of warranty, if not otherwise agreed, is 18 months from the delivery or 12
months from the commissioning whichever expires first.
The local distributor may grant a warranty time different from the above. This warranty time shall
be specified in the distributor's sales and warranty terms. Vacon Ltd assumes no responsibility for
any other warranties than that granted by Vacon itself.
In all matters concerning the warranty, contact first your distributor.
4. TECHNICAL DATA
4.1 Introduction
The VACON® NX_W Liquid-Cooled product range consists of active front ends, inverters, brake
choppers and AC drives. Figure 1 & Figure 2 presents the block diagram of the VACON® NX Liquid-
Cooled inverter and AC drive. Mechanically, the product consists of two units, the Power Unit and
the Control Unit. The power unit can contain one to six modules (cooling plates), depending on the
drive size. Instead of air, VACON® NX Liquid-Cooled inverters and AC drives use liquid for cooling.
A charging circuit is embodied in the AC drives but not in active front ends, inverters or brake
choppers.
An external three-phase AC-choke (1) at the mains input together with the DC-link capacitor (2)
form an LC-filter. In AC drives, the LC-filter together with the diode bridge produce the DC-voltage
supply to the IGBT Inverter Bridge (3) block. The AC-choke also functions as a filter against High
Frequency disturbances from the mains as well as against those caused by the AC drive to the
mains. In addition, it enhances the waveform of the input current to the AC drive. In chasses with
multiple parallel line-rectifiers (CH74) AC-chokes are required to balance the line current between
the rectifiers.
The power drawn by the AC drive from the mains is mostly active power.
The IGBT Inverter Bridge produces a symmetrical, 3-phase Pulse Width Modulated AC-voltage to
the motor.
The Motor and Application Control Block is based on microprocessor software. The microprocessor
controls the motor basing on the information it receives through measurements, parameter
settings, control I/O and control keypad. The motor and application control block controls the motor
control ASIC which, in turn, calculates the IGBT positions. Gate drivers amplify these signals for
driving the IGBT inverter bridge.
The control keypad constitutes a link between the user and the AC drive. The control keypad is used
for parameter setting, reading status data and giving control commands. It is detachable and can
be operated externally and connected via a cable to the AC drive. Instead of the control keypad, a PC
can also be used to control the AC drive if connected through a similar cable (±12 V).
You can have your AC drive equipped with a control I/O board which is either isolated (OPT-A8) or not
isolated (OPT-A1) from the frame. Optional I/O expander boards that increase the number of inputs
and outputs to be used are also available. For closer information, contact the Manufacturer or your
nearest distributor.
The basic control interface and the parameters (the Basic Application) are easy to use. If a more
versatile interface or parameters are required, a more suitable application can be chosen from the
"All in One" Application Package. See VACON® NX All in One Application Manual for more
information on the different applications.
An internal brake chopper is available as standard for chassis CH3. For Ch72 (only 6-pulse) and
Ch74, it is available as internal option while in all other sizes the brake chopper is available as option
and installed externally. The standard product does not include a brake resistor. It should be
acquired separately.

VACON® Liquid-Cooled product range consists of both AC drives (AC input, AC output) and inverter
units (DC input, AC output). The following tables present the drive output values for both and an
indication of motor shaft power at Ith and IL at different mains voltages as well as the drive losses
and mechanical sizes. The power achieved is given as per the supply voltage.
4.2.1 AC drives
Ith = Thermal maximum continuous RMS current. Dimensioning can be done according to this current if the
process does not require any overloadability or the process does not include any load variation or margin for
overloadability.
IL = Low overloadability current. Allows +10% load variation. 10% exceeding can be continuous.
IH = High overloadability current. Allows +50% load variation. 50% exceeding can be continuous.
All values with cosϕ = 0.83 and efficiency = 97%.
*) c = power loss into coolant; a = power loss into air; T = total power loss; power losses of input chokes not
included. All power losses obtained using max. supply voltage, Ith and switching frequency of 3.6 kHz and
Closed Loop control mode. All power losses are worst case losses.
If some other mains voltage is used, apply the formula P = 3 x Un x In x cosϕ x eff% to calculate the VACON®
NX Liquid-Cooled drive output power.
The enclosure class for all VACON® NX Liquid-Cooled AC drives is IP00.
If the motor is continuously (besides start and stop ramps) run at frequencies below 5 Hz, pay attention to the
drive dimensioning for low frequencies, i.e. maximum IH = 0.66*Ith or choose drive according to IH. It is
recommended to check the rating with your nearest distributor.
Drive overrating may also be necessary if the process requires high starting torque.

5. INSTALLATION
5.1 Mounting
VACON® NX Liquid-Cooled Drive modules must be installed into an enclosure. The drives consisting
of one module will be mounted on the mounting plate. The drives that include two or three modules
are mounted inside a mounting bracket (see table below) which will then be installed in the
enclosure.
NOTE! If any other than vertical installation position is required, contact your distributor!
In Chapter 5.1.2 you will find the dimensions of VACON® NX Liquid-Cooled drives installed on
mounting bases (plates and brackets).
We recommend you to always use a jib crane or similar elevating device to lift the AC drive/ inverter
unit. See figures below for correct lifting points.
For units with no mounting bracket (see Chapter 5.1.2.1), the best place for hoisting is the hole(s) in
the middle of the mounting plate (Lifting point 1). VACON® NX Liquid-Cooled drives consisting of
several modules can the most safely and easily be lifted by the holes in the mounting bracket (Lifting
point 2) using a screw pin shackle. Pay also attention to the recommended dimensions of the
hoisting belt and the beam. See Figure 3.

In cabinet installation, the hoisting procedure described above right may, however, become difficult
or even impossible if the cabinet width does not allow the use of the screw pin shackle in Lifting
point 2 (see above).
In such case, follow the lifting procedure described in Figure 4. The mounting becomes easier and
safer if the drive can be laid on a supporting girder fixed on the cabinet frame. We also recommend
to use an aligning stud to guarantee an easy and safe mounting.
Aligning stud
Supporting grider
11312_uk
To additionally stabilize the cabinet with the drive, we recommend to mount a fixing rail on the back
of the cabinet, to which the top of the drive can be fastened with 5 or 6 M5 screws. The cut-out is
compatible with Rittal or Veda cabinets. Also secure the drive with M8 nuts and studs to the
supporting girder. See Figure 4 and Figure 5.
The VACON® NX Liquid-Cooled drives are equipped with plastic handles and these handles can be
used to move and lift drives consisting of one power module (CH61, CH62, & CH72) by hand.
NOTE! Never lift a drive from the plastic handle or handles with an elevating device, such as jib
crane or hoist. Recommended lifting procedure for these units are as described in Figure 3 and
Figure 4.

5.2 Cooling
Instead of using air for cooling, VACON® NX Liquid-Cooled drives are cooled with liquid. The liquid
circulation of the drive is usually connected to a heat-exchanger (liquid-liquid/liquid-air) which
cools down the liquid circulating in the cooling elements of the drive. Because the cooling elements
are made of aluminium, the cooling agents allowed to be used are drinking water, demineralized
water or a mixture of water and glycol.
There are two types of circulation system: open systems and closed systems.
An open system has no pressure, and allows free contact with air.
In a closed system, the piping is completely air-tight and there is pressure inside the pipes. The
pipes must be made of metal, or specific plastic or rubber that includes an oxygen barrier.
Preventing of oxygen diffusion in the coolant diminishes the risk of electrochemical corrosion of the
metal parts, and generation of rust deposits. Always use a closed system with VACON® NX Liquid-
Cooled drives.
In case there is no other option than using an open system, you must take several precautions.
1. Use glycol and inhibitor in the coolant.
2. Examine the water quality regularly, and add inhibitor accordingly.
3. Yearly check that the properties of the cooling liquid are in accordance with the
specification in this manual.
In a closed circulation system, the following figures are recommended reference values. To avoid
electrochemical corrosion, it is necessary to add an inhibitor (e.g. Cortec VpCI-649) in the cooling
agent.
Add inhibitor to the cooling agent every 2 years and change the cooling agent every 6 years.
The addition of each 0.05% of VpCI-649 into the cooling agent increases the electrical conductivity
with 75-100 μS. The maximum value depends on the added dosage rate.
The heat-exchanger delivered by VACON® (HX) consists of stainless steel materials. The good
corrosion performance of stainless steel in district water systems is utilized and no disadvantage of
divergent metal filler is included. Nevertheless, some precautions must be taken to reduce the
corrosion risk on the stainless steel in high chloride waters, see Table 18. We recommend to use a
VACON® HX heat exchanger whenever possible.
NOTE! If no heat-exchanger is used, actions must be taken to avoid electrochemical corrosion.
Specifically no brass or copper elements may be used in the liquid circulation of the drive.
Copper and brass may be used in the liquid circulation in case the liquid-cooled drive is equipped
with a nickel coated aluminum heatsink.
Notes:
1) No aggressive water allowed.
2) To avoid corrosion of piping, the sulphate content must not exceed 150 mg/l.
The cleanness of the heat exchanger, and therefore the heat exchanging capacity, depend on the
purity of the process water. The more impure the water, the more frequently the heat exchanger
needs cleaning. The following figures are reference values required of cooling circuit process water:
The design temperature of the cooling agent entering the drive module(s) is 35 °C. While circulating
inside the cooling element, the liquid transfers the heat produced by the power semiconductors
(and the capacitors). The design temperature rise of the cooling agent during the circulation is less
than 5 °C. Typically, 95% of the power losses is dissipated in the liquid. We advise you to equip the
cooling agent circulation with temperature supervision.
The heat exchanging equipment can be located outside the electrical room in which the AC drives
are. The connections between these two are made on site. In order to minimize the pressure drops,
the pipings must be made as straight as possible. We further recommend that a regulating valve
equipped with a measurement point is mounted. This makes the measurement and regulation of
liquid circulation possible in the commissioning phase.
In order to prevent dirt particles from accumulating in the connections and thus gradually
weakening the cooling effect, installation of filters is also recommended.
The highest point of the piping must be equipped with either an automatic or a manual venting
device. The material of the piping must comply with at least AISI 304 (AISI 316 is recommended).
Prior to the actual connection of the pipes, the bores must be cleaned thoroughly. If cleaning with
water is not possible, although recommended, pressured air must be used to remove all loose
particles and dust.
To facilitate the cleaning and venting of the coolant circulation, we recommend you to install a
bypass valve in the main line and valves at each AC drive inlet. Open the bypass valve and shut the
valves to the AC drive when cleaning and airing the system. On commissioning the system, the
bypass valve must be closed and the valves to the AC drives opened.
Below you will find a simplified example of the cooling system as well as an example of the
connections between the AC drives and the cooling system.

We recommend to equip the cooling system with pressure and flow supervision (FE). The flow
supervision can be connected to digital input function External fault. If the coolant flow is found too
low, the AC drive will be stopped.
The flow supervision and other actuators, e.g. a constant flow valve, are available as options. The
options must be mounted at the junction of the main line and the branching line to the element,
indicated with an asterisk (*) in the figure above.

Figure 25. Example: PI-diagram of the cooling system and the connections
In tables below you will find the specifications related to the cooling agent and its circulation. See
also Table 9 on page 25.
NOTE! Unless minimum liquid flow rate is ensured, air pockets may develop in the cooling
elements. Automatic or manual de-airing of the cooling system must also be ensured.
The following table will help you to determine the appropriate flows of cooling agent (l/min) with
given power losses (see Chapter 4.2).
Table 20. Cooling agent flow rates (l/min) in relation to power loss at certain glycol/water mixture
Table 20. Cooling agent flow rates (l/min) in relation to power loss at certain glycol/water mixture
5.2.1 Condensation
Condensation on the cooling plate of the VACON® NX Liquid-Cooled drive must be avoided.
Therefore, the temperature of the cooling liquid must be kept higher than the temperature of the
electrical room. Use the graph below to determine if the drive operating conditions (combination of
room temperature, humidity and cooling liquid temperature) are safe, or, to choose the allowed
temperature for the cooling liquid.
The conditions are safe when the point is below the respective curve. If not, take adequate
precautions by decreasing the room temperature and/or the relative humidity or increase the
cooling liquid temperature. Note that increasing the temperature of the cooling liquid above figures
in loadability charts decreases the nominal output current of the drive. The below curves are valid
at sea level altitude (1013 mbar).

Example:
If the temperature of the electric room is 30 °C, the relative humidity is 40% and the temperature of
the cooling liquid is 20 °C (the lowest curve in Figure 26), then the drive operating conditions are
safe.
However, if the room temperature were to rise to 35 °C and the relative humidity to 60%, then the
operating conditions of the drive would no longer be safe. In this case, to reach safe operating
conditions, the air temperature should be cooled to 28 °C or lower. If it is not possible to lower the
room temperature, then the temperature of the cooling liquid should be raised to at least 25 °C.
The external cooling system must be connected to each one of the cooling elements of the inverter
or AC drive.
NOTE! Do not connect the cooling elements in series.
The delivery comprises hoses (Technobel Noir Tricoflex, Art.no 135855) 1.5 m in length and 16 mm
in diameter (CH5, CH6, CH7). The hoses are inserted in 1400-mm UL94V0 approved conduits (type
HFX40). These hoses have screw type connectors with internal thread. The connection of the hoses
is made on the aluminium adapter (external thread) of the cooling element. The customer end
thread of the cooling hose is G1/2" male fixed including a Usit-R sealing. When you make the
connection of the line hose, avoid any twisting of the hose on the element.

The liquid carrying hoses from the network to the cooling elements of the drive must not be
electrically conductive. Risk of electrical shock and device damage! To avoid electrochemical
corrosion, it is necessary to add an inhibitor (e.g. Cortec VpCI-649l in the cooling liquid.

As stated on page 57, we recommend the installation of flow supervision in the liquid cooling
system. You can order the flow switch as an option. The specification of the flow switch as well as
notes as concerns its installation are given below.

The tables below state the maximum coolant temperatures for VACON® Liquid-Cooled drives at
given switching frequencies. Drive derating is required if the maximum temperatures are exceeded.
NOTE! If the heatsink is nickel-coated you must allow for a 2-degree C derating of values in the
tables below.1) (Temperatures given in parenthesis). This applies only to the two biggest drive sizes
of each chassis!
The input choke carries out several functions in the VACON® NX Liquid-Cooled AC drive. Connection
of the input choke is necessary except if you have a component in your system that performs the
same tasks (e.g. a transformer). The input choke is needed as an essential component for motor
control, to protect the input and DC-link components against abrupt changes of current and voltage
as well as to function as a protection against harmonics. In chasses with multiple parallel line
rectifiers (CH74) AC-chokes are required to balance the line current between the rectifiers.
The input chokes are included in the standard delivery of VACON® Liquid-Cooled AC drives (not
inverters). However, you can also order your AC drive without the choke.
The VACON® chokes listed below are meant for supply voltages of 400-500 V and 525-690 V.

AC drive types written bold italic require three (3) chokes of the designated kind per unit with 6-
pulse supply.
There are two types of input choke connection in VACON® NX Liquid-Cooled drives. The two smallest
sizes (CH31, CH32; up to 61 A) have terminal block connection whereas bigger sizes use busbar
connection. Examples of both connections and the choke dimensions below.

If you have ordered the input chokes for VACON® NX Liquid-Cooled separately pay attention to the
following instructions:
1. Protect the chokes from dripping water. You may even need to use plexiglass for
protection because jets of water may occur when working with the connections.
2. Connection of cables:
Types CHK0023N6A0, CHK0038N6A0, CHK0062N6A0 (chokes with terminal blocks)
The terminals are marked with letters U,V, W and X,Y and Z in such an order, however,
that terminals U and X, V and Y as well as W and Z form pairs of which one is an input and
the other an output. Furthermore, terminals U,V and W must all be used as either input
or output. The same applies to terminals X, Y and Z. See Figure 33.
Example: If you connect the mains cable of one phase to terminal X, the other two phases
must be connected to Y and Z. Accordingly, the choke output cables are connected to
their corresponding input pairs: phase 1 U, phase 2 V and phase 3 W.
How the power connections of VACON® NX Liquid-Cooled units are implemented depends on the
size of the unit. The smallest VACON® NX Liquid-Cooled unit (CH3) has terminal blocks for the
connections. In all other units, the connection is established using cables and cable clips or bolting
the busbars together.
The main circuit diagrams of each VACON® NX Liquid-Cooled drive chassis you will find in Appendix
2 on page 194.
Use cables with heat resistance of at least +90 °C. The cables and the fuses must be sized according
to the drive nominal OUTPUT current that you can find on the rating plate. Sizing according to the
output current is recommended because the drive input current never significantly exceeds the
output current. Installation of cables according to UL regulations is presented in Chapter 6.1.6.
In chassis CH5 and greater, the field cables (both motor and mains) must be connected to a specific
cable connection block (optional equipment). However, inside a switchgear, the cable connection
can be made directly to the drive.
VACON® Liquid-Cooled NX_8 inverter units must be equipped with a du/dt- or sine-filter.
Table 41 shows the minimum sizes of the Cu-cables and the corresponding aR fuse sizes.
If the motor temperature protection of the drive (see VACON® NX All in One Application Manual) is
used as an overload protection, the cable must be chosen accordingly. If three or more cables are
used in parallel each cable requires a separate overload protection.
These instructions apply only to cases with one motor and one cable connection from the AC drive
or inverter to the motor. In any other case, ask the factory for more information.
The mains cables of the size CH31 are connected to terminal blocks [see Figure 6] whereas busbar
connection is used for greater sizes, see drawings in Chapter 5.1.2.2. Mains cable type for EMC level
N in Table 35.
In order to avoid current sharing disbalance it is imperative to use symmetrical motor cables. We
also recommends to always use shielded cable whenever possible.
The motor cables of the size CH31 are connected to terminal blocks (see Figure 6) whereas busbar
connection is used for greater sizes, see drawings on on Chapter 5.1.2.2. Motor cable type for EMC
level N in Table 35. Ask factory for more information on the use of ferrite cores with the motor cable
in order to protect the motor bearings against motor bearing currents.
For information on control cables see Chapter 6.2.2.1 and Table 35.

We recommend a low-impedance grounding of the motor cable shield for better performance.
Because of several possible cable installations and environmental conditions, it is very important to
consider local regulations and the IEC/EN standards.
6.1.1.5 Cable selection and unit installation in accordance with the UL standards
To meet the UL (Underwriters Laboratories) regulations, use a UL-approved copper cable with a
minimum heat-resistance of +90 °C to meet the requirements.
The units are suitable for use on a circuit capable of delivering not more than 100,000 rms
symmetrical amperes, 600 V maximum, when protected by J, L or T Class fuses.
Integral solid state short circuit protection does not provide branch circuit protection. Branch circuit
protection must be provided in accordance with the National Electric Code and any additional local
codes. Branch circuit protection provided by fuses only.
In order to protect the drive from short-circuits and excessive loads, input line fuses must be used.
The warranty becomes void if the drive is not equipped with approriate fuses.
Depending on the drive configuration, the following types of fuse protection are recommended:
AC drive with AC supply:
Always protect the drive with fast-acting input line fuses for short-circuit protection. Also pay
attention to protection of cables!
Common DC bus:
• Inverter units: Choose fuse protection according to Table 43 and Table 44.
• Active Front End (AFE) units: Choose DC fuses according to Table 43 and Table 44;
Appropriate fuses for the AC supply are listed in Table 62 and Table 63, see Chapter 10.
• Inverter units connected to AFE units: Choose fuses for AC supply according to Table 62 and
Table 63; NOTE! Protect each inverter unit with fuses according to Table 43 and Table 44.
The fuse sizing in the tables below is based on Ferraz aR fuses. We primarily recommend you to use
these fuses or corresponding Bussman aR fuses (see Appendix 3 on page 196). Sufficient protection
against short-circuit cannot be guaranteed if other fuse types are used. Furthermore, equation of
the fuse values given in the tables below with those of other fuse manufacturers is not allowed. In
case you wish to use fuses of other fuse manufacturers, contact your nearest distributor.

Fuse information
The values in tables are based on max ambient temperature of +50 ºC.
Fuse sizes can differ in the same chassis. Make sure that the Isc of the supply transformer is high enough to
burn fuses fast enough.
Check the current rating of the fuse bases according to the input current of the drive.
The physical size of the fuse is chosen on the basis of the fuse current: Current > 400 amps (size 2 fuse or
smaller), current < 400 amps (size 3 fuse). The aR fuses are thermally rated into switch fuse in 50 degrees
ambient temperature.
Each DC supply line must be equipped with an aR fuse according to the tables below.

Fuse information
The values in tables are based on max ambient temperature of +50 ºC.
Fuse sizes can differ in the same chassis. Fuses can be chosen according to the biggest current
rating of the chassis to minimize fuse variants. Make sure that the Isc of the supply transformer is
high enough to burn fuses fast enough.
Check the current rating of the fuse bases according to the input current of the drive.
The physical size of the fuse is chosen on the basis of the fuse current: Current < 250 amps (size 1
fuse), current > 250 amps (size 3 fuse).
The aR fuses are thermally rated into switch fuse in 50 degree ambient temperature.
Before starting the installation, check that none of the components of the AC
1 drive is live.
VACON® NX Liquid-Cooled drive must always be installed in an enclosure, a
separate cubicle or an electrical room.
2 Always use a jib crane or similar lifting device to lift the drive. For safe and
appropriate lifting, see Chapter 5.1.1.

• The maximum length of the motor cables is 300 m.
• The motor cables should cross other cables at an angle of 90 degrees.
6 Clamp the motor cables to the cabinet frame as instructed in Figure 36.
Liquid cooling connection:
The standard delivery of the VACON® NX Liquid-Cooled drive includes hoses on
the cooling element 1.5 m in length and 15 mm in diameter. The hoses are
inserted in 1400-mm UL94V0 approved conduits. Connect the line hose branch to
its counterpart (screw or fast connector) on the of the VACON® Liquid-Cooled
drive.
Due to high pressure in the line hose, it is recommended to equip the liquid line
7 with a shut-off valve, which makes the connection easier. In order to prevent
water from spraying in the installation room we also recommend to wrap e.g.
linters around the connection on installing. For more information on the liquid
connection, see Chapter 5.2.2.
When the installation in the enclosure is completed the liquid pump can be
started. See Commissioning of the AC drive on page 137.
NOTE! Do not switch on the power before ensuring the proper functioning of the
liquid cooling system.

The control unit of VACON® NX Liquid-Cooled AC drive/inverter is installed into a mounting box. It
contains the control board and additional boards (see Figure 41 and Figure 42) connected to the five
slot connectors (A to E) of the control board. The control unit and the ASIC of the power unit are
connected through cables (and an adapter board). For more information, see page 108.
The mounting box with the control unit is mounted inside an enclosure. See the mounting
instructions on page 103.

Figure 42. Basic and option board connections on the control board
Usually, when the AC drive is delivered from the factory, the control unit includes at least the
standard compilation of two basic boards (I/O board and relay board) which are normally installed
in slots A and B. On the next pages you will find the arrangement of the control I/O and the relay
terminals of the two basic boards, the general wiring diagram and the control signal descriptions.
The I/O boards mounted at the factory are indicated in the type code.
The control board can be powered externally (+24 VDC, ±10%) by connecting the external power
source to the control unit. This voltage is sufficient for parameter setting and for keeping the
fieldbus active.
NOTE! The control board of NX_8 (voltage class 8) AFE, INU or BCU units must always be powered
externally with a +24 VDC ±10% power source.
The preferred solution is to connect the external +24 VDC power supply to the fiber adapter board
terminals X3:1 (24 VDC) & X3:2 (GND) or star coupler board terminals X4:25 (24VDC)& X4:26 (GND),
see pictures below.
3067_00
The control board can also be powered externally (+24 V, ±10%) by connecting the external power
source to either of the bidirectional terminal #6 or #12, see page 98.
NOTE! If the 24 V inputs of several AC drives are parallelly connected we recommend to use a diode
in terminal #6 (or #12) in order to avoid the current to flow in opposite direction. This might damage
the control board. See picture below.

The control board can be powered (+24 V) in two different ways: either 1) directly from the power
board ASIC, terminal X10 or/and 2) externally using the customer’s own power source. The two ways
of supplying the board can be used simultaneously. This voltage is sufficient for parameter setting
and for keeping the fieldbus active.
By factory default, the control unit is powered using the terminal X10 on the power board. However,
if an external supply is used to power up the control unit, a load resistor must be connected to
terminal X10 on the power board. This applies to all chassis ≥ CH61.
The basic control connections for boards A1 and A2 are shown in Chapter 6.2.3.

As a general rule, all internal electrical and communications connections are made at the factory.
However, if modules have to be moved, for example, and the connections therefore removed, you will
have to re-establish the connections between 1) the Power Unit ASIC and the Driver Board(s) on the
one hand and 2) the Power Unit ASIC and the Optical Cable Adapter Board on the other.
See the figures and tables on the following pages for the correct connection of internal electrical

7. CONTROL KEYPAD
The control keypad is the link between the VACON® AC drive and the user. The VACON® NX control
keypad features an alphanumeric display with seven indicators for the Run status (RUN, ,
READY, STOP, ALARM, FAULT) and three indicators for the control place (I/O term/ Keypad/
BusComm). There are also three Status Indicator LEDs (green - green - red), see below.
The control information, i.e. the number of menu, description of menu or the displayed value and
the numeric information are presented on three text lines.
The AC drive is operable through the nine push-buttons of the control keypad. Furthermore, the
buttons serve the purposes of parameter setting and value monitoring.
The keypad is detachable and isolated from the input line potential.

Parameters are the way of conveying the commands of the user to the AC drive. The parameter
values can be edited by entering the Parameter Menu from the Main Menu when the location
indication M2 is visible on the first line of the display. The value editing procedure is presented in
Figure 64.
Push the Menu button right once to move into the Parameter Group Menu (G#). Locate the
parameter group desired by using the Browser buttons and push the Menu button right again to
enter the group and its parameters. Use again the Browser buttons to find the parameter (P#) you
want to edit. From here you can proceed in two different ways: Pushing the Menu button right takes
you to the edit mode. As a sign of this, the parameter value starts to blink. You can now change the
value in two different manners:
1. Just set the new desired value with the Browser buttons and confirm the change with the
Enter button. Consequently, the blinking stops and the new value is visible in the value
field.
2. Push the Menu button right once again. Now you will be able to edit the value digit by
digit. This editing manner may come in handy, when a relatively greater or smaller value
than that on the display is desired. Confirm the change with the Enter button.
The value will not change unless the Enter button is pushed. Pressing the Menu button left takes
you back to the previous menu.
Several parameters are locked, i.e. uneditable, when the drive is in RUN status. If you try to change
the value of such a parameter the text *Locked* will appear on the display. The AC drive must be
stopped in order to edit these parameters.
The parameters values can also be locked using the function in menu M6 (see Chapter Parameter
lock (P6.5.2)).
You can return to the Main menu anytime by pressing the Menu button left for 3 seconds.
The basic application package "All in One+" includes seven applications with different sets of
parameters.
Once in the last parameter of a parameter group, you can move directly to the first parameter of that
group by pushing the Browser button up.

The keypad reference submenu (P3.2) displays and allows the operator to edit the frequency
reference. The changes will take place immediately. This reference value will not, however,
influence the rotation speed of the motor unless the keypad has been selected as source of
reference.
NOTE! The maximum difference in RUN mode between the output frequency and the keypad
reference is 6 Hz. See also Chapter 7.3.3.4 below.
See Figure 64 for how to edit the reference value (pressing the Enter button is not, however,
necessary).
The keypad direction submenu displays and allows the operator to change the rotating direction of
the motor. This setting will not, however, influence the rotation direction of the motor unless the
keypad has been selected as the active control place.
See also Chapter 7.3.3.4 below.
See Figure 65 for how to change the rotation direction.
NOTE! Additional Information on controlling the motor with the keypad is given in Chapter 7.2.1 and
Chapter 8.2.
By default, pushing the STOP button will always stop the motor regardless of the selected control
place. You can disable this function by giving parameter 3.4 the value 0. If the value of this parameter
is 0, the STOP button will stop the motor only when the keypad has been selected as the active
control place.
NOTE! There are some special functions that can be performed when in the M3 menu:
Select the keypad as the active control place by keeping the Start button pushed down for 3
seconds when the motor is running. The keypad will become the active control place and the
current frequency reference and direction will be copied to the keypad.
Select the keypad as the active control place by keeping the Stop button pushed down for 3
seconds when the motor is stopped. The keypad will become the active control place and the
current frequency reference and direction will be copied to the keypad.
Copy the frequency reference set elsewhere (I/O, fieldbus) to the panel by keeping the
enter pushed down for 3 seconds.
Note that if you are in any other than M3 menu these functions will not work.
If you are in some other than M3 menu and try to start the motor by pressing the START button when
the keypad is not selected as the active control place you will get an error message Keypad Control
NOT ACTIVE.
The Active faults menu can be entered from the Main menu by pushing the Menu button right when
the location indication M4 is visible on the first line of the keypad display.
When a fault brings the AC drive to a stop, the location indication F1, the fault code, a short
description of the fault and the fault type symbol (see Chapter 7.3.4.1) will appear on the display. In
addition, the indication FAULT or ALARM (see Figure 60 or Chapter 7.1.1) is displayed and, in case
of a FAULT, the red led on the keypad starts to blink. If several faults occur simultaneously, the list
of active faults can be browsed with the Browser buttons.
The memory of active faults can store the maximum of 10 faults in the order of appearance. The
display can be cleared with the Reset button and the read-out will return to the same state it was
before the fault trip. The fault remains active until it is cleared with the Reset button or with a reset
signal from the I/O terminal or fieldbus.
NOTE! Remove external Start signal before resetting the fault to prevent unintentional restart of the
drive.

The parameter copy function is used when the operator wants to copy one or all parameter groups
from one drive to another or to store parameter sets in the internal memory of the AC drive. All the
parameter groups are first uploaded to the keypad, then the keypad is connected to another drive
and then the parameter groups are downloaded to it (or possibly back to the same drive).
Before any parameters can successfully be copied from one drive to another the drive has to be
stopped when the parameters are downloaded to it:

In the Parameter comparison submenu (S6.4), you can compare the actual parameter values to the
values of your customised parameter sets and those loaded to the control keypad.
The comparison is performed by pushing the Menu button right when in the Compare parameters
submenu. The actual parameter values are first compared to those of the customised parameter
Set1. If no differences are detected a '0' is displayed on the lowermost line. But if any of the
parameter values differ from those of the Set1 the number of the deviations is displayed together
with symbol P (e.g. P1P5 = five deviating values). By pressing the Menu button right once again
you can still enter the pages where you can see both the actual value and the value it was compared
to. In this display, the value on the Description line (in the middle) is the default value and the one
on the value line (lowermost) is the edited value. Furthermore, you can also edit the actual value
with the Browser buttons in the edit mode that you can reach by pushing the Menu button right once
again.
In the same way, you can perform the comparison of the actual values to Set2, Factory Settings and
Keypad Set.

The VACON® NX Active Front End is used to transfer power between the AC input and intermediate
DC circuit. The VACON® NX Active Front End has a two-way function. This means that when power
is transferred from the AC input to the intermediate DC circuit, the VACON® NX Active Front End
rectifies the alternating current and voltage. When power is transferred from the intermediate DC
circuit to the AC input, the VACON® NX Active Front End inverts the direct current and voltage.
The Active Front End configurations consist of the unit itself, LCL filter, pre-charging circuit, control
unit, AC fuses, main contactor / circuit breaker and DC fuses which you need to take into account
when planning the switchgear configuration, see Figure 85.

10.6.1 Introduction
VACON® Liquid-Cooled AFE units can be used with either Liquid Cooled or Air Cooled LCL filters.
The standard Liquid Cooled LCL filters are named RLC filter. The RLC filter type codes can be seen
from Table 62. The RLC filters are not included in the standard delivery of the AFE units and therefor
they need to be ordered reparately. More information about Air Cooled LCL filters can be found from
UD01190B, VACON® NX Active Front End User‘s Manual, FI9-13.
The RLC filter contains a 3-phase chokes (Lnet)on the mains side, capacitors bank (Cbank) and 3 pcs
of 1-phase choke (Ldrive) on the AFE side, Figure 87. The RLC also includes capacitors connected
against ground potential. There are resistors connected across the capacitors for discharging them
when the LCL filter is disconnected from the input power. The discharging resistors are 10 MΩ, 500
V and 0.5 W.

If the filter is used in a network fitted with an earth fault protection relay, the discharging resistors
should be removed. If the discharging resistors are not removed, the earth fault monitoring device
might indicate a very low leakage resistance. The resistors must be connected so that the
capacitors are discharged when disconnecting from the input power. The wiring diagram of an
alternative discharging circuit can be seen in Figure 91. The discharging resistors should be 10 kΩ,
500 V and 2 W. Failure to ensure the discharging of capacitors take a very long time to discharge.
Figure 92 and Figure 93 have a blue marking on the lead that has to be removed from each
capacitors if the discharge resistor is not to be used.
WARNING! If you do not allow a total discharge of the system before starting the modification, it is
likely that you will get an electricshock in spite of the fact the system is disconnected from the power
supply.
3074_uk
If a PWM modulated rectifier from another manufacturer is connected to the same input
transformer, the capacitors must be removed! Otherwise the capacitors must not be removed.
Figure 92 and Figure 93 have a red marking on the lead that has to be removed from each capacitor
if the interference suppression capacitors are not to be used. Removing the lead disconnects the
capacitors from ground potential.

AC fuses are used to protect the input network in case the Active Front End unit or the LCL filter is
faulty. DC fuses are used to protect the Active Front End unit and the LCL filter in case there is a
short circuit in the DC buses. If DC fuses are not used, short-circuit in the DC buses will cause a
loading of the Active Front End unit. Vacon Ltd will not assume any responsibility for damages
caused by insufficient protection. The warranty becomes void if the drive is not equipped with
appropriate fuses.
Fuse information
The values in tables are based on max ambient temperature of +50 ºC.
Fuse sizes can differ in the same chassis. Make sure that the Isc of the supply transformer is high
enough to burn fuses fast enough.
Check the current rating of the fuse bases according to the input current of the drive.
The physical size of the fuse is chosen on the basis of the fuse current: Current < 250 amps (size 1
fuse), current > 250 amps (size 3 fuse).
The aR fuses are thermally rated into switch fuse in 50 degree ambient temperature.
The required AC fuse selection for the active front end unit can be found fromTable 66 and Table 67.
The required DC fuse selection for the active front end unit can be found from Table 38 and Table 39.

The Active Front End unit requires an external pre-charging circuit. The purpose of the pre-charging
unit is to charge the voltage in the intermediate circuit to a level sufficient for connecting the Active
Front End unit to the mains. The charging time depends on the capacitance of the intermediate
circuit and the resistance of the charging resistors. The technical specifications of manufacturer’s
standard pre-charging circuits are shown in Table 68. Pre-charging circuits are suitable for 380-500
Vac and 525-690 Vac.
The pre-charging components can be ordered separately. Components of the pre-charging circuit
are 2 pcs charging resistors, the contactor, the diode bridge and the snubber capacitor, see Table 69.
Each pre-charging circuit has maximum charging capacity, see Table 68. If the capacitance of the
intermediate circuit in the system exceeds the values shown, contact your nearest distributor.
Table 68. Capacitance Min and Max value for Pre-charging circuit
Table 69. Type designation code for the pre-charging components configuration

The example shown in Figure 94 uses a spring-return switch. The switch has positions 0-1-START.
The spring returns the switch from position START to position 1. To start the pre-charging, the
switch is turned from position 0 via 1 to START. When pre-charging starts, the switch can be
released and it returns to position 1. No other control measures are required. The Active Front End
application controls the main contactor of the system with Relay Output RO2, see Figure 95. When
pre-charging of the intermediate circuit is ready the main contactor will be closed. The status of the
main contactor is monitored via digital input (Default is DIN4). As a default the main contactor
monitoring is ON but it can be set OFF with parameter. The main contactor should not be possible
close without pre-charging.
To open the main contactor, simply turn the switch to 0. The contactor should not be opened under
load. Opening the contactor under load will shorten its service life.
NOTE! Wirings what are used for connecting the pre-charging circuit to the intermediate circuit has
to be double insulated.
NOTE! Enough space must be reserved around the resistors to ensure sufficient cooling. Don’t place
any heat sensitive components near the resistors.

10.9 Parelling
The power of the input group can be increased by connecting several Active Front End units in
parallel. Paralleling refers to Active Front End units connected in the same input transformer. Active
Front End units of different power ratings can also be connected in parallel. No communication
between the units is required; they work independently. Manufacturer’s standard LCL filters must
be used for paralleling. If LCL filters other than these are used in Active Front End units connected
in parallel, too large circulation currents may be generated between the Active Front End units. All
Active Front units must be set for 5% drooping and PWM Synch must be set for Enable. See the
Application manual for specific parameter settings.
Each Active Front End unit connected in parallel must have its own short-circuit protection on AC
and DC sides. The fuses are selected in accordance with Section x-x. When paralleling, attention
must be paid to the sufficient short-circuit capacity of the system.
The derating of Active Front End units connected in parallel is 5% of the DC power; this should be
taken into account when selecting the input unit.
If a device is to be isolated from the AC and DC voltages, and other Active Front End units connected
in parallel are also to be used, separate isolators are required in the AC input and DC output. The
AC input can be isolated using a compact circuit-breaker, an ordinary circuit-breaker or a fuse
switch. Contactors are not suitable for isolating the AC input because they cannot be locked in the
safe position. The DC output can be isolated using a fuse switch. The pre-charging circuit must also
be isolated from the AC input. A load isolation switch or safety isolation switch can be used for this.
The device can also be connected to mains even when the other devices connected in parallel are
already connected and running. In such a case, the isolated deice must first be pre-charged. When
that is done, the AC input can be switched on. After this, the device can be connected to the
intermediate DC circuit.
In case of paralleled Active Front End units, one common pre-charging circuit can be used, see
Figure 96. Standard pre-charging circuits can be used if the capacitance of the intermediate circuit
not exceeds maximum value. If all paralleled Active Front End units have a common circuit breaker,
the breaker can be controlled by one of the Active Front End units. If each paralleled Active Front
End unit has its own circuit breaker, each Active Front End controls it’s own circuit breaker. The
circuit diagram for control, see Figure 94 and Figure 95.
3079_uk
Figure 96. Active Front End units parallel connection with one common pre-charging circuit
10.11 Each Active Front End unit has the pre-charcing circuit
Each Active Front End can have an own pre-charging circuit, and each unit is controlling it’s own pre-
charging and main contactor, see Figure 97. One control switch can be used but if an Active Front
End unit needs to be controlled independently, separate switches are needed. With this the system
is more redundant than with a common pre-charging circuit. The circuit diagram for control, see
Figure 94 and Figure 95.

Figure 97. Active Front End units parallel connection with own pre-charging circuits
The VACON® NX Non-regenerative Front End (NFE) is used to transfer power from the AC input to
the intermediate DC circuit to which the inverter units are connected.
The Non-regenerative Front End configurations consist of the unit itself, choke, pre-charging circuit,
control unit with accessories, AC fuses, circuit breaker and DC fuses which you need to take into
account when planning the switchgear configuration, see Figure 98. The construction is for 12-
pulse network but it can be used as 6-pulse.
Other accessories such as breakers, fuses and pre-charging components etc should be acquired
separately.
NOTE! If you use other chokes than the recommended ones, contact your nearest distributor to
ensure compatibility.
Scope of supply:
The NFE unit consists of the power module (-TB1), NXP control (-AA1) and its option boards, control
accessories and a choice of chokes (-RA1.1 and -RA1.2). The option board type is fixed A1A2BHB100.
The option board for fieldbus can be ordered separately and is assembled into the slot E.
These external control accessories need to be assembled separately:
• 2 pieces of input phase monitor relays (-PRM1.1 and -PRM1.2)
• DC-voltage transducer 1500Vdc-10Vdc (-KF10)
11.2 Diagrams
The NFE unit has a typical control circuit. Some of the inputs and outputs can be set with

The NFE power unit, NXP Control and the external control accessories need external 24Vdc supply.
A minimum of 2A power is required to ensure proper operation. See the connection from circuit
diagrams Figure 98 - Figure 101. The cable between the NXP control and the power unit has to be
shielded and grounded using the cable clamp which is included in the delivery of the drive.
The main circuit breaker control requires typically external 230Vac, and a minimum of 2A.
A 24Vdc power supply for fans, fan feedback signals and PT100 temperature sensor must be
connected to the X100 connector at the NFE module.
Remove the protective cover to reveal the X100-connector on the power unit.
11712_00
Connect the wires as shown in Figure 100. The 24Vdc fans require minimum 1A
2 current capacity. Route the cables into the NFE power unit on the top of unit.
Using the cable clamp (1) included in the delivery of the drive, ground the shield
of the cable between the NXP control and the power unit.

Table 77.
AC fuses are used to protect the input network in case the Non-regenerative Front End unit or the
choke is faulty. DC fuses are used to protect the Non-regenerative Front End unit and the choke in
case there is a short circuit in the DC buses. If DC fuses are not used, short-circuit in the DC buses
will cause a loading of the Non-regenerative Front End unit. Vacon Ltd will not assume any
responsibility for damages caused by insufficient protection. The warranty becomes void if the
drive is not equipped with appropriate fuses.
Main circuit breakers are used to protect chokes and Non-regenerative Front End units from
overloading and unbalanced loading. Therefore, both rectifier bridges must be equipped with
individual circuit breakers, see Figure 98.
Fuse information
The values in tables are based on max ambient temperature of +50 ºC.
The required AC fuse type for the non-regenerative front end unit can be found from Table 78. The
required DC fuse type for the non-regenerative front end unit can be found from Table 79.

NOTE! If other circuit breakers are used, the overload and short circuit characteristics must be
similar than those of the circuit breakers mentioned above. Overload IN = 1000AAC/3sec,
instantaneous short-circuit l = 1500AAC. Note that IEC, UL and other related approvals may be
required. For UL enclosures, use UL Listed Breakers with category code PAQX or DIVQ.
11.10 Settings
The option boards and phase monitor relays have settings that you may need to adjust. For settings
of software application parameters, see Chapter 11.13.
The phase monitor relays (PMR1.1 and PMR1.2) have functions to detect under voltage, phase
sequence and phase failure. All of those have to be correct so that the power unit is powered
correctly and stays in run mode. If any of them is not correct, the phase monitor relay's output does
not activate and the control unit gives an input phase fault.

Each Non-regenerative Front End unit requires its own external pre-charging circuit. The purpose
of the pre-charging unit is to charge the voltage in the intermediate circuit to a level sufficient for
connecting the Non-regenerative Front End unit to the mains. The charging time depends on the
capacitance of the intermediate circuit of the total common DC-bus system and the resistance of
the charging resistors. The technical specifications of manufacturer's standard pre-charging
circuits are shown in Table 81. The pre-charging circuits are suitable for 400-500 Vac and 525-690
Vac.
The pre-charging duration and DC voltage level are monitored by the NXP control. The DC voltage
level must be over 40VDC after 1 second charging and final pre-charging voltage level must be
reached within the maximum charging time. If these conditions are not reached, a charging fault is
issued. The maximum charging time can be set by a parameter.
The pre-charging components can be ordered separately. The pre-charging circuit includes the
following components: 2 pcs charging resistors, the contactor, the diode bridge and the snubber
capacitor, see Table 82. Each pre-charging circuit has maximum charging capacity, see Table 81. If
the capacitance of the intermediate circuit in the total system exceeds the values shown, contact
your nearest distributor.
Table 81. Capacitance Min and Max value for Pre-charging circuit
Table 82. Type designation code for the pre-charging components configuration
The Non-regenerative Front End unit must not be connected to mains without pre-charging. In order
to ensure the correct operation of the pre-charging circuit, the input circuit-breaker and the pre-
charging circuit contactor must be controlled by the Non-regenerative Front End unit. The input
circuit-breaker and the pre-charging circuit contactor must be connected as shown in
Chapter 11.2.1.
NOTE! You need to double-insulate all wirings that do not have short circuit protections and are
used for connecting the pre-charging circuit to the intermediate circuit.
NOTE! Enough space must be reserved around the resistors to ensure sufficient cooling. Do not
place any heat sensitive components near the resistors.
11.12 Paralleling
The power of the input group can be increased by connecting several Non-Regenerative Front End
units in parallel. Manufacturer's standard chokes must be used for parallel units. Use of other than
these chokes in the Non-Regenerative Front End units connected in parallel may cause a too large
current imbalance between the units.
Each Non-Regenerative Front End unit connected in parallel must have its own short-circuit
protection on AC and DC sides and own circuit breakers in AC side. When paralleling, attention must
be paid to the sufficient short-circuit capacity of the system.
The derating of Non-Regenerative Front End units connected in parallel is 10% of the DC power; this
should be taken into account when dimensioning the system.
If a device is to be isolated from the AC and DC voltages, and other Non-Regenerative Front End
units connected in parallel are also to be used, separate isolators are required in the AC input and
DC output. The AC input can be isolated using a circuit-breaker or a fuse switch. Contactors are not
suitable for isolating the AC input because they cannot be locked in a safe position. The DC output
can be isolated using a proper load switch. The pre-charging circuit must also be isolated from the
AC input by using fuse switch. The device can also be connected to mains even when the other
devices connected in parallel are already connected and running. In such a case, the isolated device
must first be pre-charged. When that is done, the AC input can be switched on. After this, the device
can be connected to the intermediate DC circuit.

When a fault is detected by the NFE control electronics, the drive is stopped and main circuit
breakers and the charging switch is controlled into open state, which will then disconnect the NFE
module from the mains supply. The fault can be reset with the Reset button on the control keypad
or via the I/O terminal. Resetting the faults will clear the fault and initiate new start-up procedure
of the NFE unit. The faults are stored in the Fault history menu (M5) which can be browsed. The
different fault codes you will find in the table below.

The VACON® NXB (Brake chopper unit) is a unidirectional power converter for the supply of
excessive energy from a common DC bus drive line-up to resistors where the energy is dissipated
as heat. External resistors are needed. The NXB improves the DC-link voltage controllability as well
as enhances the motor drives performance in dynamic applications.
Mechanically, the NXB module is based on inverter unit construction. The dynamic DC energy brake
function is achieved through a specific NXB system software. Several NXB modules can be installed
parallelly in order to increase the braking capacity, however, the modules require mutual
synchronization.
In Vacon type designation code, the Brake Chopper Unit is characterized by number 8, for example:
