ABB DCS800 Drives

• Make sure that dust from drilling does not enter the drive when installing. Electrically conductive dust inside the unit may cause damage or lead to malfunction.

• Ensure sufficient cooling.

• Do not fasten the drive by riveting or welding.

These warnings are intended for all who plan the operation of the drive or operate the drive. Ignoring the instructions can cause physical injury or death and/or damage to the equipment.

• Before adjusting the drive and putting it into service, make sure that the motor and all driven equipment are suitable for operation throughout the speed range provided by the drive. The drive can be adjusted to operate the motor at speeds above and below the base speed.

• Do not control the motor with the disconnecting device (disconnecting mains); instead, use the control panel keys and , or commands via the I/O board of the drive.

• Mains connection You can use a disconnect switch (with fuses) to disconnect the electrical components of the drive from the mains for installation and maintenance work. The type of disconnect switch used must be as per EN 60947-3, Class B, so as to comply with EU regulations, or a circuit-breaker type which switches off the load circuit by means of an auxiliary contact causing the breaker's main contacts to open. The mains disconnect must be locked in its "OPEN" position during any installation and maintenance work.

• EMERGENCY STOP buttons must be installed at each control desk and at all other control panels requiring an emergency stop function. Pressing the STOP button on the control panel of the drive will neither cause an emergency stop of the motor, nor will the drive be disconnected from any dangerous potential. To avoid unintentional operating states, or to shut the unit down in case of any imminent danger according to the standards in the safety instructions it is not sufficient to merely shut down the drive via signals "RUN", "drive OFF" or "Emergency Stop" respectively "control panel" or "PC tool".

• Intended use The operating instructions cannot take into consideration every possible case of configuration, operation or maintenance. Thus, they mainly give such advice only, which is required by qualified personnel for normal operation of the machines and devices in industrial installations. If in special cases the electrical machines and devices are in-tended for use in non-industrial installations - which may require stricter safety regulations (e.g. protection against contact by children or similar) - these additional safety measures for the installation must be provided by the customer during assembly. Note:

• When the control location is not set to Local (L not shown in the status row of the display), the stop key on the control panel will not stop the drive. To stop the drive using the control panel, press the LOC/REM key and then the stop key .

Chapter overview

Unpacking the unit

• Open the box,

• take out shock dampers,

• separate manual and accessories.Attention: Do not lift the drive by the cover!

Delivery check

Check that there are no signs of damage. Before attempting installation and operation, check the information on the nameplate of the converter module to verify that the unit is of the correct type. The label includes an IEC rating, cULus, C-tick (N713) and CE markings, a type code and a serial number, which allow individual identification of each unit. The remaining digits complete the serial number so that there are no two units with the same serial number. See an example nameplate below

Before installation

Install the drive in an upright position with the cooling section facing a wall. Check the installation site according to the requirements below. Refer to chapter Dimensions and weights for frame details. Requirements for the installation site See chapter Technical data for the allowed operation conditions of the drive. Wall The wall should be as close to vertical as possible, of non-flammable material and strong enough to carry the weight of the unit. Check that there is nothing on the wall to inhibit the installation. Floor The floor or material below the installation should be non-flammable. Free space around the unit Around the unit free space is required to enable cooling airflow, service and maintenance see chapter Dimensions and weights.

Cabinet installation.

The required distance between parallel units is five millimetres (0.2 in.) in installations without the front cover. The cooling air entering the unit must not exceed +40 °C (+104 °F).
