Device protection

ƒ In the event of condensation, connect the controller to the mains

voltage only after the humidity has evaporated.

ƒ The controller is protected by external fuses.

ƒ Length of the screws for connecting the shield sheet for the control

cables: 12 mm.

ƒ Cyclic connection and disconnection of the supply voltage can overload

and destroy the input current limitation of the controller. In case of
cyclic mains switching over a longer period of time, the controller must
not be switched on more frequently than every 5 minutes!

ƒ Switching on the motor side of the controller is only permitted for

emergency switch−off.

ƒ Provide unused control inputs and outputs with terminal strips. Cover

unused Sub−D sockets with protective covers included in the scope of
supply.

5.1.3

Motor protection

ƒ Extensive protection against overload:

– By overcurrent relays or temperature monitoring.
– We recommend the use of PTC thermistors or thermostats to monitor

the motor temperature.

– PTC thermistors or thermostats can be connected to the controller.
– For monitoring the motor, we recommend the use of the I

monitoring.

ƒ Only use motors with an insulation suitable for the inverter operation:

– Insulation resistance: min. û = 1.5 kV, min. du/dt = 5 kV/

ms

– When using motors with an unknown insulation resistance, please

contact your motor supplier.

Note!

To avoid bearing currents, Lenze recommends to use motors
with insulated non−drive end bearings. Optionally, motor chokes
can be used to reduce bearing currents.
