CAUTION
Failure to lift the converter in the correct manner can result in bodily injury and/or property
damage.
The device must always be lifted by properly trained personnel using the appropriate equipment
(i.e. protective gloves, etc.).
To preclude the risk of deformation damage to the housings of converters with rated DC current
of 720A or higher, the lifting lugs used to raise them must not be subjected to any horizontal
forces.
The user is responsible for installing the converter, motor, transformer as well as other
equipment according to safety regulations (e.g. DIN, VDE), as well as all other relevant national
or local regulations regarding cable dimensioning and protection, grounding, isolating switch,
overcurrent protection, etc.

The converter must be installed in accordance with the relevant safety regulations (e.g. DIN,
VDE), as well as all other relevant national and local regulations. It must be ensured that the
grounding, cable dimensioning and appropriate short-circuit protection have been implemented
to guarantee operational safety and reliability.

Installation of SIMOREG devices in cabinets in accordance with UL 508 C standards

When the drive is provided in a panel (enclosure), the panel is ventilated and designated "Type 1".
The minimum size panel (enclosure) to be used with the drive is 600 mm length, 600 mm width,
2200 mm height.

Possible lifting method for converters with rated DC current of 1500A to 3000A

Cubicle mounting of converters with rated DC current of 1500A to 3000A

a s

• These converters are supplied with 2 fixing angles a. These can be bolted to the SIMOREG
unit by means of the supplied M6 hexagon-head screws (3 per angle) to assist cubicle mounting.
• The unit can then be supported by 2 further angles s (not included in scope of supply) in the
control cubicle.
• The converters must be bolted to the cubicle rear panel in 4 places.

WARNING
A clearance of at least 100 mm must be left above and below the converter in order to ensure
an unrestricted cooling air intake and outlet.
The converter may overheat if this clearance is not provided!

• Attach the 3 hexagon-head bolts supplied at position s on the CUD1 electronics board with the
screws and fixing elements d supplied and insert the two plug connectors f.
The two plug connectors must be positioned such that the short pin ends are inserted in the
socket connectors of the CUD1 and the long pin ends in the socket connectors of the CUD2.
• Position board CUD2 in such a way that the two plug connectors f are properly contacted.
• Secure board CUD2 in position using the supplied screws and retaining elements g.
• Insert electronics board CUD1 into electronics box and tighten up the two fixing screws a again
as instructed.

5.3.2 Optional supplementary boards

WARNING
Safe operation is dependent upon proper installation and start-up by qualified personnel under
observance of all warnings contained in these operating instructions.
Boards must always be replaced by properly qualified personnel.
Boards must not be inserted or removed when the power supply is connected.
Failure to observe this warning can result in death, severe physical injury or substantial property
damage.

CAUTION
The boards contain ElectroStatic Discharge Sensitive Devices (ESDS). Before touching a
board, make sure that your own body has been electrostatically discharged. The easiest way to
do this is to touch a conductive, earthed object (e.g. bare metal part of cubicle) immediately
beforehand.

5.3.2.1 Local bus adapter (LBA) for mounting optional supplementary boards
Optional supplementary boards can be installed only in conjunction with the LBA option. If an LBA is
not already fitted in the SIMOREG converter, one must be installed in the electronics box to
accommodate the optional board.

How to install an LBA local bus adapter in the electronics box:

♦ Undo the two fixing screws on the CUD1

board and pull board out by special handles.
♦ Push LBA bus extension into electronics
box (see picture on right for position) until it
engages.
♦ Insert CUD1 board in left-hand board
location again and tighten fixing screws in
handles.

5.3.2.2 Mounting of optional supplementary boards

of the electronics box. Option LBA (local bus Arrangement of

Supplementary boards may be inserted in any slot subject to the following restrictions:

NOTICE
♦ Slot 3 must not be used until slot 2 is already occupied.
♦ A technology board must always be installed in board location 2 of the electronics box.
♦ If a technology board is used in conjunction with one communication board, then the
communication board must be fitted in slot G (miniature-format boards, for example CBP2
and CBC) or slot 3 (large-format board SCB1).
A type T400 technology module can also be used with two communication boards of type
CBC, CBD or CBP2 (see Section 7.7.1, Procedure for starting up technology boards).
♦ It is not possible to operate boards EB1, EB2, SLB and SBP in conjunction with a technology
board.
♦ The data of large-format boards are always output under slot E or slot G, i.e. the software
version of a technology board, for example, is displayed in r060.003.
♦ In addition to the LBA, miniature-format boards (for example CBP2 and CBC) also require an
ADB (adapter board, support board). Due to their very compact physical dimensions, these
boards must be inserted in an ADB before they can be installed in the electronics box.
♦ A total of two supplementary boards of the same type can be used (e.g. 2 EB1s), but only 1
SBP and 1 SLB may be installed.

The diagram below shows which locations or slots can be used for the supplementary boards you
wish to install and which board combinations are possible:
