Notes on EMC

You will find further information in publication: 

Technical Guide chapter: 

EMC Compliant Installation and Configuration for 

a Power Drive System

The paragraphs below describe selection of 

the electrical components in conformity with 

the EMC Guideline.

The aim of the EMC Guideline is, as the name 

implies, to achieve electromagnetic compatibility with other products and systems. The 

guideline ensures that the emissions from 

the product concerned are so low that they 

do not impair another product‘s interference 

immunity. 

In the context of the EMC Guideline, two 

aspects must be borne in mind:

• the product‘s interference immunity

• the product‘s actual emissions

The EMC Guideline expects EMC to be taken 

into account when a product is being developed; 

however, EMC cannot be designed in, it can only 

be quantitatively measured.

Note on EMC conformity

The conformity procedure is the responsibility of 

both the power converter‘s supplier and the manufacturer of the machine or system concerned, in 

proportion to their share in expanding the electrical 

equipment involved.

For compliance with the protection objectives 

of the German EMC Act (EMVG) in systems and 

machines, the following EMC standards must 

be satisfied:

Product Standard EN 61800-3

EMC standard for drive systems (PowerDriveSystem), interference immunity and emissions 

in residential areas, enterprise zones with light 

industry and in industrial facilities.

This standard must be complied with in the EU 

for satisfying the EMC requirements for systems 

and machines!

Classification

The following overview utilises the 

terminology and indicates the action required in accordance with 

Product Standard 

EN 61800-3

For the DCS800 series, the limit 

values for emitted interference 

are complied with, provided the 

measure indicated is carried 

out. PDS of category C2 (formerly restricted distribution in 

first environment) is intended to 

be installed and commissioned 

only by a professional (person 

or organization with necessary 

skills in installing and/or commissioning PDS including their 

EMC aspects).

For power converters without 

additional components, the following warning applies:

This is a product of category C2

under IEC 61800-3:2004. In a 

domestic/residential environment 

this product may cause radio 

interference in which case supplementary mitigation measures 

my be required.

The field supply is not depicted 

in this overview diagram. For the 

field current cables, the same 

rules apply as for the armaturecircuit cables.

Operation with separate power converter transformer. If there 

are other loads at the same secondary winding, these must be 

able to cope with the commutation gaps caused by the power 

converter. In some cases, commutating reactors will be 

required.

To other loads, e.g. drive systems

Converter Converter

Line reactor

Medium-voltage network

Industrial 

zone

For emitted interference, the following apply:

EN 61000-6-3 Specialised basic standard for emissions in light industry

can be satisfied with special features (mains filters, screened 

power cables) in the lower rating range *(EN 50081-1).

EN 61000-6-4 Specialised basic standard for emissions in industry 

*(EN 50081-2)

For interference immunity, the following apply:

EN 61000-6-1 Specialised basic standard for interference immunity in 

residential areas *(EN 50082-1) 

EN 61000-6-2 Specialised basic standard for interference immunity in industry. If this standard is satisfied, then the EN 61000-6-1 

standard is automatically satisfied as well *(EN 50082-2).

* The generic standards are given in brackets

START, STOP and E-STOP control

The relay logic can be split into three parts:

a: Generation of the ON/OFF and START/STOP command:

The commands represented by K20 and K21 (latching interface relay) can be e.g. generated by a PLC and transferred to 

the terminals of the converter either by relays, using galvanic 

isolation or directly via 24V signals. 

These commands can be as well transferred via serial 

communication. Even a mixed solution can be realized by 

selecting different possibilities for the one or the other signal 

(see parameter group 11).

b: Generation of control and monitoring signals: 

The main contactor K1 for the armature circuit is controlled 

by a dry contact (DO 8) located on the SDCS-PIN-4. Status 

of fans and fans klixon can be monitored by means of fan 

ack signals: MotFanAck (10.06) and ConvFanAck (10.20). 

c: OFF2, OFF3 Stop function: 

Beside ON/OFF and START/STOP, the drive is equipped 

with two additional stop functions, OFF2 and OFF3, according to Profibus standard. OFF3 is a scalable stop function 

(rampstop, max torque stop, dynamic braking …) to perform 

stop category 1. This function should be connected to the 

E-STOP button without any time delay. In case of ramp stop 

selection the, K 15 timer relay must be set longer than the 

EStopRamp (22.04). For COAST selection, the drive opens 

the main contactor immediately.

OFF2 switches off DC current as fast as possible and prepares the drive for opening main contactor or drop down 

mains supply. For a normal DC motor load the time to switch 

OFF the DC current is below 20 ms. This function should be 

connected to all signals and safety functions opening the main 

contactor. This function is important for 4-quadrant drives. 

Do not open main contactor during regenerative current.

The correct sequence is 

1. switch off regenerative current

 2. then open the main contactor

In case of the E-STOP is hit, the information is transferred 

to the converter via digital input 5. In case of rampstop, or 

max torque selection the converter will decelerate the motor 

and then open main contactor.

If the drive has not finished the function within the K15 timer 

setting, the drive must get the command to switch OFF the 

current via K16. After K16 timer set has elapsed the main 

contactor is opened independent of the drives status.

Notes For North American Installations

1. EMC conformity is not usually required in North America. In most cases, the section “Notes on EMC” can be 

bypassed. In this manual, you will see references to DIN, EN 

and VDE standards. These are European standards and, 

generally, do not apply to North America. It is, however, 

the responsibility of the user to determine which standards 

need to be followed.

2. If using a DC contactor, you must connect an auxiliary

contact to a digital input of your choice and set para. MainContAck accordingly. Set the following parameters:

MainContAck (10.21) = DI-1 (or any input you

choose for the DC cont.

auxiliary contact)

DO8BitNo (14.16) = 10

MainContCtrlMode (21.16) = DCcontact (3)

Set these parameters AFTER macros are loaded but BEFORE 

the drive is commissioned.

Digital output 8 (DO-8) must be used to turn the DC

contactor on and off.

3. If using Dynamic Braking, the drive allows you to select the stopping method under three different situations. 

Parameters 21.02, 21.03 and 21.04 select the stopping 

method for loss of 

the OnOff, run command (StartStop, Jog1, Jog2, etc.), and 

E-Stop input, respectively. 

Each can be set to:

• RampStop • TorqueLimit

• CoastStop • DynBraking

In order to command the drive to perform a DB stop, one 

or more of these parameters must be set to DynBraking. 

Most users will want the drive to ramp stop when OnOff or a 

run command (StartStop, Jog1, Jog2, etc.) input is cleared, 

and dynamically brake when the E-Stop input is cleared. In 

that case, use the following settings:

• Off1Mode (21.02) = RampStop

• StopMode (21.03) = RampStop

• E StopMode (21.04) = DynBraking

However, any case is allowed and the final decision is left 

to the user.

Other parameters control stops during faults. 

See:

LocalLossCtrl (30.27) ComLossCtrl (30.28)

FaultStopMode (30.30) SpeedFbFltMode (30.36)

If using EMF feedback with dynamic braking, set:

• DynBrakeDly (50.11) = t

Where: t = the time (sec) it normally takes the motor 

to stop during dynamic braking

DC contactor US:

DC contactor US K1.1 is a special designed contactor with 2x 

NO contacts for C1 and D1 connection and 1x NC contact for 

connection of Dynamic Brake resistor RB.

The contactor should be controlled by signal 6.03 Bit 10.

The acknowledge can be connected to parameter:

10.21 MainContAck

10.23 DCBreakAck

Overview of the Installation and Commissioning Process

This is to protect the motor and converter if a commutation 

fault should occur. NOTE: DC output fuses are the same 

type and size as AC line fuses.

Line reactor:

All thyristor-based dc converters cause notching in the AC 

line due to motor commutation. A properly sized line reactor 

will mitigate the effect on the line. Unless the converter uses 

a dedicated isolation transformer, each converter requires 

its own line reactor. 

AC or DC contactor:

A contactor is required to safely disconnect the motor from 

the incoming power when the converter is off. The contactor 

can be installed between the line and the converter (an AC 

contactor) or between the converter and the motor (a DC 

contactor). Do not use both.

IMPORTANT: Other equipment may be necessary depending on application and local codes.

Step 1:

Check converter for damage. Contact ABB Technical Support 

if damage is found. In North America, call 1-800-435-7365

(1-800-HELP-365)

Step 2:

Select supporting hardware for the converter:

For specific recommendations for fuses, reactors, and 

contactors, see the DCS800 hardware manual or technical 

catalog.

Circuit breaker or disconnect:

Current rating = Idc * 0.816 * 1.25 (min)

 = Idc * 0.816 * 2.50 (max)

Where: Idc = nominal DC motor current

Fuses:

AC Line Fuses: To properly protect the converter, semiconductor fuses on the incoming AC power line are required 

in all cases.

DC Output Fuses: Fuses between the motor and the 

converter are required for all regenerative (4-Q) converters. 

Step 3:

Mount and wire the converter and supporting hardware inside an industrial enclosure with adequate cooling (DCS800 

modules have rating of NEMA type OPEN). 

The following control and signal wiring is required:

o If using an AC contactor, we recommend wiring an auxiliary contact to the digital input you have designated as 

MainContAck (10.21) or Start/Stop (10.16).

o If using a DC contactor, you must wire an auxiliary contact 

from the contactor to the digital input you have designated 

as MainContAck (10.21).

o Wire 115 or 230 Vac 1-phase power to terminal block 99 

for converter control power.

o Wire 1-phase power to converter for cooling fans. See 

table and wiring diagrams in this manual.

• D1 – D3 frames: 115/230 Vac selectable. Fan 

terminal X2 is on top of the converter.

• D4 frame: If type code includes +S171, use 115 

Vac; otherwise use 230 Vac. Fan terminal X2 is 

on top of the converter.

o Wire tachometer or encoder to terminal block X3 (tacho) 

or X5 (encoder).

o Wire analog inputs (e.g., speed reference) and outputs 

(e.g., meters for motor voltage, current) to terminal block 

X3 and/or X4.

o Wire high speed serial interface if needed. (Requires 

optional fieldbus interface board.)

o The DCS800 allows you to choose the usage of each 

digital and analog input and output. The converter has 

factory default settings which can be changed by loading 

a macro, but some designations are universal. They 

include:

• Digital input 5: Estop

• Digital input 6: Fault reset 

• Digital input 7: On/Off (maintained) or On-Start 

(pulsed)

• *Digital input 8: Start/Stop (maintained) or OffStop (pulsed)

• Digital output 8: Main Contactor On (3 Amps 

max. at 115 – 230 Vac)

*except Hand/Auto macro

o Other signals may be required depending on your application (e.g., motor fan acknowledge input, Off2 input, 

fan-on output, brake output).

o You will select the macro and / or choose the configuration 

for digital and analog inputs and outputs in step 2 of the 

commissioning process, or by updating group 10 and 14 

parameters.

o Check all wire terminations (with continuity tester) before 

proceeding to the next step.

Step 4:

Connect the drive system to incoming power and the motor to 

the converter (both field and armature) as well as accessory 

equipment (motor fan, thermal switch, brake, etc.).

o See hardware manual for typical cable size and tightening 

torque recommendations.

o IMPORTANT: Be sure all safety equipmentis properly

sized for your application

Step 5:

Apply control power to the converter.

o IMPORTANT: See section “Safety and Operating

Instructions” in this manual before proceeding.

o Apply power to terminal block 99 and X2. The keypad 

should light up and show the menu screen. The converter 

fans should start to run (if converter has fans).

Step 6:

Commission the converter using Drive Windows Light

(preferred) or the control panel.

o IMPORTANT: Seesafetyalertsandgeneralinstructions

in the section “Commissioning” before proceeding.

o Install the DCS800 PC tools on your computer. Instructions 

are in this manual. Use DriveWindow Light to commission 

your converter.

o If no PC is available, commission your drive using the 

control panel as follows:

• On the control panel, press the softkey to select 

MENU.

Safety and operating instructions 

for drive converters DCS / DCF / DCR

1. General

In operation, drive converters, depending on their degree of 

protection, may have live, uninsulated, and possibly also moving 

or rotating parts, as well as hot surfaces.

In case of inadmissible removal of the required covers, of 

improper use, wrong installation or maloperation, there is the 

danger of serious personal injury and damage to property. 

For further information, see documentation.

All operations serving transport, installation and commissioning 

as well as maintenance are to be carried out by skilled technical personnel (Observe IEC 364 or CENELEC HD 384 or DIN 

VDE 0100 and IEC 664 or DIN/VDE 0110 and national accident 

prevention rules!). 

For the purposes of these basic safety instructions, “skilled 

technical personnel” means persons who are familiar with the 

installation, mounting, commissioning and operation of the 

product and have the qualifications needed for the performance 

of their functions. 

2. Intended use

Drive converters are components designed for inclusion in electrical installations or machinery. 

In case of installation in machinery, commissioning of the drive 

converter (i.e. the starting of normal operation) is prohibited until 

the machinery has been proved to conform to the provisions of 

the directive 89/392/EEC (Machinery Safety Directive - MSD). 

Account is to be taken of EN 60204.

Commissioning (i.e. the starting of normal opertion) is admissible 

only where conformity with the EMC directive (89/336/EEC) has 

been established. 

The drive converters meet the requirements of the low-voltage 

directive 73/23/EEC. They are subject to the harmonized standards of the series prEN 50178/DIN VDE 0160 in conjunction with 

EN 60439-1/ VDE 0660, part 500, and EN 60146/ VDE 0558.

The technical data as well as information concerning the supply conditions shall be taken from the rating plate and from the 

documentation and shall be strictly observed. 

3. Transport, storage

The instructions for transport, storage and proper use shall be 

complied with. 

The climatic conditions shall be in conformity with prEN 50178.

4. Installation

The installation and cooling of the appliances shall be in accordance with the specifications in the pertinent documentation. 

The drive converters shall be protected against excessive 

strains. In particular, no components must be bent or isolating 

distances altered in the course of transportation or handling. No 

contact shall be made with electronic components and contacts. 

Drive converters contain electrostatic sensitive components 

which are liable to damage through improper use. Electric 

components must not be mechanically damaged or destroyed 

(potential health risks).

5. Electrical connection

When working on live drive converters, the applicable national 

accident prevention rules (e.g. VBG 4) must be complied with.

The electrical installation shall be carried out in accordance with 

the relevant requirements (e.g. cross-sectional areas of conductors, fusing, PE connection). For further information, see documentation.

Instructions for the installation in accordance with EMC requirements, like screening, earthing, location of filters and wiring, 

are contained in the drive converter documentation. They must 

always be complied with, also for drive converters bearing a 

CE marking. Observance of the limit values required by EMC 

law is the responsibility of the manufacturer of the installation or 

machine. 

6. Operation

Installations which include drive converters shall be equipped 

with additional control and protective devices in accordance with 

the relevant applicable safety requirements, e.g. Act respecting 

technical equipment, accident prevention rules etc. Changes 

to the drive converters by means of the operating software are 

admissible.

After disconnection of the drive converter from the voltage 

supply, live appliance parts and power terminals must not be 

touched immediately because of possibly energized capacitors. 

In this respect, the corresponding signs and markings on the 

drive converter must be respected.

During operation, all covers and doors shall be kept closed.

7. Maintenance and servicing

The manufacturer’s documentation shall be followed.

Keep safety instructions in a safe place!
