Safety

 

Personnel 

Installation, operation and maintenance of the equipment should be carried out by competent personnel. A competent person is someone who is 

technically qualified and familiar with all safety information and established safety practices; with the installation process, operation and maintenance 

of this equipment; and with all the hazards involved.

Hazards 

DANGER! - Ignoring the following may result in injury

 

1. This equipment can endanger life by exposure to rotating

machinery and high voltages.

2. The equipment must be permanently earthed due to the high

earth leakage current, and the inverter motor must be connected

to an appropriate safety earth.

3. Ensure all incoming supplies are isolated before working on the

equipment. Be aware that there may be more than one supply

connection to the inverter.

4. There may still be dangerous voltages present at power terminals

(motor output, supply input phases, DC bus and the brake, where

fitted) when the motor is at standstill or is stopped.

5. For measurements use only a meter to IEC 61010 (CAT III or

higher). Always begin using the highest range.

CAT I and CAT II meters must not be used on this product.

6. Allow at least 5 minutes for the inverter's capacitors to discharge to

safe voltage levels (<50V). Use the specified meter capable of

measuring up to 1000V dc & ac rms to confirm that less than 50V

is present between all power terminals and between power

terminals and earth.

7. Unless otherwise stated, this product must NOT be dismantled. In

the event of a fault the inverter must be returned. Refer to "Routine

Maintenance and Repair".

Safety  

1-3 

WARNING! - Ignoring the following may result in injury or damage to equipment

 

SAFETY 

Where there is conflict between EMC and Safety requirements, personnel safety shall always take precedence.

Never perform high voltage resistance checks on the

wiring without first disconnecting the inverter from the

circuit being tested.

Whilst ensuring ventilation is sufficient, provide guarding

and /or additional safety systems to prevent injury or

damage to equipment.

When replacing an inverter in an application and before

returning to use, it is essential that all user defined

parameters for the product’s operation are correctly

installed.

All control and signal terminals are SELV, i.e. protected by double

insulation. Ensure all external wiring is rated for the highest system

voltage.

Thermal sensors contained within the motor must have at least

basic insulation.

All exposed metalwork in the Inverter is protected by basic

insulation and bonded to a safety earth.

RCDs are not recommended for use with this product but, where

their use is mandatory, only Type B RCDs should be used.

EMC

 

In a domestic environment this product may cause radio

interference in which case supplementary mitigation

measures may be required.

This equipment contains electrostatic discharge (ESD)

sensitive parts.  Observe static control precautions when

handling, installing and servicing this product.

This is a product of the restricted sales distribution class according

to IEC 61800-3. It is designated as “professional equipment” as

defined in EN61000-3-2. Permission of the supply authority shall be

obtained before connection to the low voltage supply.

WARNING! – Control Unit Removal / Fitting

Isolate supply before plugging or unplugging control unit to the power stack.

Safety

 

CAUTION!

 

APPLICATION RISK

 

  The specifications, processes and circuitry described herein are for guidance only and may need to be adapted to the user’s 

specific application. We can not guarantee the suitability of the equipment described in this Manual for individual applications. 

RISK ASSESSMENT

 

Under fault conditions, power loss or unintended operating conditions, the inverter may not operate as intended. In particular: 

 

Stored energy might not discharge to safe 

levels as quickly as suggested, and can still 

be present even though the inverter 

appears to be switched off 

 

 

The motor's direction of rotation might not be controlled 

 

The motor speed might not be controlled 

 

The motor might be energised 

An inverter is a component within an inverter system that may influence its operation or effects under a fault condition. Consideration 

must be given to: 

  Stored energy 

  Supply disconnects 

  Sequencing logic 

  Unintended operation

About this Manual 

Motors used must be suitable for Inverter duty. 

NOTE 

 

Do not attempt to control motors whose rated current is less than 25% of the inverter rated current.  Poor motor control or Autotune 

problems may occur if you do. 

This manual is intended for use by the installer, user and programmer of the AC30 series of inverters. It assumes a reasonable level of 
understanding in these three disciplines. 

NOTE 

 

Please read all Safety information before proceeding with the installation and operation of this unit. 

It is important that you pass this manual on to any new user of this unit. 

How the Manual is Organised 

This Engineering Reference manual is organised into chapters, indicated by the numbering on the edge of each page.  If the manual is to be 
printed it is designed so that it should be printed double-sided using the short-edge for binding. 

Information for all AC30 units is included (AC30V frames D, E, F, G, H, J & K, AC30P & AC30D), which are collectively referred to as “the 
Inverter” or “drive” throughout the manual. 

Product coding:  Any “x” within a product code indicates there are variants, see page F-1 Understanding the Product Code. 

Any text placed in a highlighted area as this sample shows, only refers to the AC30P and AC30D. 

Parker Hannifin Manufacturing Limited is referred to as “Parker” throughout the manual. 

The manual is more detailed than the relevant QuickStart manual, and so is of use to the unfamiliar as well as the high-end user.
