3.4 Mounting and installation guidelines

immunity of MICROMASTER and MICROMASTER Vector,
Size C
The drive inverters are designed for use in industrial
environments with strong electromagnetic noise and
disturbances. Generally, safe, reliable and fault-free operation is
guaranteed if the drive units have been correctly installed.
However, if problems do occur, then the following guidelines
might possibly help. It can be especially effective to connect the
drive inverter ground potential, as subsequently described, to 0
V of the system.
(1) Ensure that all of the drive units are correctly grounded
using a short grounding cable with adequate cross-
section, to a common neutral point or a busbar. It is
especially important that all of the control devices,
connected to the drive inverter (for example, a PLC) are
connected to the same grounding or neutral point through
a short grounding cable with adequate cross-section. Flat
conductors are preferred (for example, finely-stranded or
metal brackets), as they have a low impedance at high
frequencies.
If motors are fed from the drive inverter, the potential
bonding conductor should be directly connected to 0 V
(PE) of the particular drive inverter.
(2) Remove the paint from the mounting plate in order to
establish a good electrical connection between the
heatsink and the housing. Please use serrated washers
when mounting and installing MIDIMASTER Vector.
(3) When possible, use shielded cables to connect-up the
control terminals. Assemble the cable ends correctly so
that non-shielded wires and conductors are kept as short
as possible. Where possible, use cable glands.
(4) Separately route the control cable, as far as possible, away
from the supply cable. This can be realized, for example, by
using separate cable ducts. If control cables and line supply
cables (power cables) cross over, then arrange the cables so
that they cross at an angle of 90°.
(5) Ensure that the contactors in the electrical cabinet are
provided with noise suppression devices. For AC coils,
use RC elements or for DC coils, use free-wheeling
diodes. Varistors are also effective. This is especially
important if the contactors are controlled using the drive
inverter relay connection.
(6) Use shielded cables to connect-up the motors or route
the cables in a protective pipe and ground the shield at
both ends using cable glands.
(7) If the drive inverters are installed in an environment
which is prone to electromagnetic disturbances, then a
noise suppression filter should be used to dampen the
cable-borne and radiated noise and disturbances. In
order to guarantee optimum operating conditions, there
should be a good electrical connection between the filter
and the mounting plate.
(8) If a line-side EMC filter and line reactor are
simultaneously used, the EMC filter must be located
between the drive inverter and line reactor.
