GV3000/SE AC Drive Hardware Reference, Version 6.06

7.1 Stopping the Drive

Depending upon the requirements of the application, the GV3000/SE drive can be

programmed to provide either a coast-to-rest or a ramp-to-rest operational stop

without physical separation of the power source from the motor.

A coast-to-rest stop turns off the transistor power device drivers. A ramp-to-rest stop

fires the transistor power device drivers until the motor comes to a stop, and then turns

off the power devices.

The user can also program zero speed with power maintained to the motor, but in this

condition, the drive is not actually stopped.

See the description of terminals 23 and 24 or Stop Type (P.025) for more information

on how to program the operational stop.

In addition to the operational stop, the user must provide a hardwired emergency stop

external to the drive. The emergency stop circuit must contain only hardwired

electromechanical components. Operation of the emergency stop must not depend on

electronic logic (hardware or software) or on the communication of commands over an

electronic network or link.

Parameter P.055 (STOP/RESET Key Disable), can be used to change the operation of

the STOP/RESET key. See the P.055 parameter description in the software manual for

more information.

Note that the user-installed hardwired emergency stop may be used at any time to

stop the drive.

7.1.1 Compliance with Machinery Safety Standard EN 60204-1:1992

This section applies to users who must comply with machinery safety standard EN

60204-1:1992, part 9.2.5.4, Emergency Stop.

The GV3000/SE drive coast-to-rest stop is a category 0 operational stop. The

ramp-to-rest stop is a category 1 operational stop. In addition, it is possible to

implement a category 2 stop, with power maintained to the motor at zero speed.

The required external hardwired emergency stop must be either a category 0 or 1

stop, depending on the user’s risk assessment of the associated machinery. In order

to fully comply with machinery safety standard EN60204-1:1992, part 9.2.5.4, at least

one of the two stop methods must be a category 0 stop. Refer to Appendix B for more

information.

!

ATTENTION: When P.055 is set to ON, the STOP/RESET key is

functional only from the selected control source. As a safety precaution,

Reliance Electric recommends that an emergency stop push button be

located near the drive in an easily accessible location. As a further safety

precaution, the user should post a warning on the drive to alert personnel

that the STOP/RESET key is not functional. Failure to observe this

precaution could result in severe bodily injury or loss of life.
ATTENTION: The user must provide an external, hardwired emergency

stop circuit outside of the drive circuitry. This circuit must disable the

system in case of improper operation. Uncontrolled machine operation

may result if this procedure is not followed. Failure to observe this

precaution could result in bodily injury.
