Using Contactors

When using an AC input contactor, the IEC AC1 rating of the contactor must
be equal to the rated thermal (RMS) current value at the main input of the drive.

Drive configurations for AC or DC contactors, with or without a dynamic brake,
are as follows (see Typical Power Wiring Diagrams on page

46

for wiring

examples):

When only an AC contactor is used:

Set parameter

1391

[ContactorControl] to 1 “AC Cntctr” (default

value)

(1)

Set one [Relay Out x Sel] parameter and one [Digital Inx Sel]
parameter to “Contactor” (default value for parameters

1392

[Relay

Out 1 Sel] and

140

[Digital In8 Sel])

When only a DC contactor is used:

Set parameter

1391

[ContactorControl] to 3 “DC Cntctr”

(1)

Set one [Relay Out x Sel] parameter and one [Digital Inx Sel] to
“Contactor” (default value for parameters

1392

[Relay Out 1 Sel] and

140

[Digital In8 Sel])

When an AC contactor and dynamic brake contactor are used:

Set parameter

1391

[ContactorControl] to “AC Cntctr+DB”

(1)

Set one [Relay Out x Sel] parameter (

1392

[Relay Out 1 Sel] or

629

[Relay Out 2 Sel]) to “Contactor” and the other relay output to
“ContactorDB”

Set one [Digital Inx Sel] parameter to “Contactor” (default value for
parameter

140

[Digital In8 Sel])

When a DC contactor and dynamic brake contactor are used:

Set parameter

1391

[ContactorControl] to “DC Cntctr+DB”

(1)

Set one [Relay Out x Sel] parameter (

1392

[Relay Out 1 Sel] or

629

[Relay Out 2 Sel]) to “Contactor” and the other relay output to
“ContactorDB”

Set one [Digital Inx Sel] parameter to “Contactor” (default value for
parameter

140

[Digital In8 Sel])

When a contactor is NOT used:

Set parameter

1391

[ContactorControl] to “None”

(1)

Do NOT set either [Relay Out x Sel] parameter to “Contactor” or
“ContactorDB”

Do NOT set any [Digital Inx Sel] parameter to “Contactor”

(1) Par 1391 [ContactorControl] is contained in the “Advanced” parameter configuration group. See How Parameters are Organized on
