who understand all of the safety warnings, installation, operating and
maintenance instructions contained in this user manual code +0300048EN,
available, including prior to purchase, at www.carel.com, under Literature.

1.2 Fundamental safety rules

Before performing any maintenance work:

disconnect Power+ and external control circuits from the power

supply, moving the main system switch to off ; wait at least 5 minutes;

always check, using a suitable multimeter, that there is no dangerous

voltage across the terminals;

always make sure the motor has stopped completely. Motors that
are still freely rotating may produce dangerous voltages at the Power+
terminals, even when this is disconnected from the power supply;

check the temperature of the heat sink: coming in contact with the
heat sink may cause burns.

When Power+ is connected to the mains, motor terminals U, V, W are

live, even if the motor is not running.

Do not measure insulation resistance or dielectric rigidity directly on

Power+, or with Power+ connected.

The control terminals are isolated from the mains voltage. Nonetheless,
the relay outputs may have a dangerous control voltage even when Power+
is not connected to the mains.

The level of safety provided by the enabling inputs on Power+

(excluding the Safety Torque Off input when used in compliance with the
standards) is not sufficient in critical applications without adopting
further independent safety measures. For all applications where malfunctions
may cause serious harm to people and damage to things, the risks must be
assessed and additional safety measures adopted

Ensure correct earthing connections and cable selection as per defined

by local legislation or codes. The drive typically have a leakage current
of greater than 3.5mA so that a fixed installation to power line is required;
furthermore the earth cable must be sufficient to carry the maximum supply
fault current which normally will be limited by the fuses or magnetic MCB.
Suitably rated fuses or MCB should be fitted in the mains supply to the drive,
according to any local legislation or codes.

3.3.11 Power+ Coldplate models Hot spot
The Power+ Coldplate models (PSD10***C*) are the same as respective
standard Power+ models, with the unique difference that the finned heatsink
and fan are replaced by a flat aluminium plate.
The plate has threaded holes M5 for fixing an additional device with cooling
function (coldplate), typically using liquid refrigerant. The coldplate is the
users responsibility and is not supplied by Carel.

Important:
Make sure that the cooling device is dimensioned and fixed to the plate
in a way to dissipate the heat while keeping the temperature of the plate
below 70C in the various operating conditions and that the overheating
alarm does not intervene.
Make sure that the cooling device does not cause the formation of

condensate on the inner surface of the plate.

Clean the contact surfaces of the Power+ plate and of the coldplate and
ensure they couple perfectly.

4.5 Checks before commissioning

Before commissioning, check that:
the drive output current is greater than or equal to the rated current or the
maximum envisioned for the motor;
the work voltage range is correct
the section of the power supply cables is correct;
the maximum section and length of the motor cables is correct and that
they are connected in compliance with the wiring diagrams;
all of the control inputs are connected correctly;
drive is not in alarm: in case remove alarm cause (see Chapter 8) and reset
the alarm (see paragraph 5.12).

4.6 Routine maintenance

The drive should be included within the scheduled maintenance program so
that the installation maintains a suitable operating environment, this should
include:
ambient temperature is at or below that set out in the Environment
section;
heat sink and internal fans freely rotating and dust free;
the enclosure in which the drive is installed should be free from dust
and condensation; furthermore ventilation fans and air filters should be
checked for correct air flow;
checks on all electrical connections, ensuring screw terminals are correctly
torqued and fastons are correctly fitted (PSD1*102** and PSD1D**2BA10
models);
checks on power cables that should have no signs of heat damage.

Important
The internal capacitors must be reformed if the drive has been stored for
more than two years.
For information on capacitor reforming, please contact your local Carel
representative.

2. drive overtemperature.

It may be necessary to avoid particular frequencies in some systems due
to mechanical resonance problems. Using the following parameters it is f_switch t
possible to fix the limits of the frequency area to be avoided for the frequency
set point. If the frequency set point assumes a value within the area, the
effective set point is blocked at values fc-B/2 or fc+B/2, depending whether

corresponding to the Minimum output frequency parameter. If after a
certain period of time, the temperature of the drive drops below the value
T_th-2DT, the set point gradually returns to the requested value. If the

0 = PM brushless motor
1 = not used
2 = AC asynchronous motor with V/f control
1 Motor base frequency 500 250 5000 0.1Hz R/W Sets the motor base frequency (electric). For AC asynchronous Y Y Y
(50.0Hz) (25.0Hz) (500.0Hz) motors the value can normally be found on the motor technical
plate. For motors with permanent magnets (PM) it is suggested
to set it at values indicated by CAREL.
2 Motor base voltage 230/400 25 250/500 V R/W Sets the phase-phase rated voltage (corresponding to the Y Y Y
motor base frequency). For AC asynchronous motors the value
can normally be found on the motor technical plate (depending
on the type of triangle/delta connection). For motors with
permanent magnets (PM) it is suggested to set it at values
indicated by CAREL. Def. and Max values depends on rated
power supply of the models
3 Motor rated current Drive 1/10 Drive rated 0.1A R/W Sets the motor rated current. It is also the reference for motor Y Y Y
rated drive output overload protection (I*T current*time up to 150% of the rated
output rated current current for 1 minute). For AC asynchronous motors the value can
current output normally be found on the motor technical plate. For motors with
current permanent magnets (PM) it is suggested to set it at maximum
motor current (normally corresponding to maximum electric
frequency). For AC asynchronous motors only set the current
threshold for overload protection. For PM brushless motors the
parameter establishes the maximum supplied current value. If to
rotate at a given speed, the motor requires a higher current than
that set here, the drive limits the current with consequent speed
reduction to a value consistent with the current supplied.
5 maximum output current 1000 0 2000 0.1% R/W If the control envisions, it is possible to supply the motor with Y N N
(100.0%) (200.0%) Motor rated current that can reach double the rated one, considering that the
current resulting current will be limited by the maximum value that can
be supplied by the drive. A larger current than that supplied by
the Motor rated current parameter can be applied for a limited
period of time, after which the Motor overload alarm occurs.
The threshold beyond which the alarm is activated corresponds
to functioning at 150% of the rated current for 1 minute.
6 Maximum output frequency 0 0 5000 0.1Hz R/W Sets the drive maximum output frequency (electric) Y Y N

10. APPENDIX
10.1 Conversion formulas
RPS = F / (P / 2) RPS =RPM / 60
RPM = (F x 60) / (P / 2) RPM = RPS x 60
F = RPS x (P / 2) F = (RPM x (P / 2)) / 60

Key:
F frequency (Hz) of the voltage and current applied to motor
RPS revolution per second of motor shaft (rotor)
RPM revolution per minute of motor shaft (rotor)
P number of poles of motor (always an even number)
P/2 number of polar couples of motor

Nota: In AC motors (asyncronous induction motor) RPS and RPM

derived from previous formulas are not the actual value because of the
intrinsic rotor slip. The actual values is always lower than calculated RPS and
RPM values, and the difference increase with the load. The RPM actual value is
motor dependent and it is usually specified by manufacturer at nominal load.
