General Information
The manufacturer accepts no liability for any consequences resulting from inappropriate, negligent or
incorrect installation or adjustment of the optional operating parameters of the equipment or from
mismatching the variable speed drive with the motor.
The contents of this guide are believed to be correct at the time of printing. In the interests of a commitment
to a policy of continuous development and improvement, the manufacturer reserves the right to change the
specification of the product or its performance, or the contents of the guide, without notice.
All rights reserved. No parts of this guide may be reproduced or transmitted in any form or by any means,
electrical or mechanical including photocopying, recording or by an information storage or retrieval system,
without permission in writing from the publisher.
Drive software version
This product is supplied with the latest software version. If this drive is to be connected to an existing system
or machine, all drive software versions should be verified to confirm the same functionality as drives of the
same model already present. This may also apply to drives returned from a Control Techniques Service
Centre or Repair Centre. If there is any doubt please contact the supplier of the product.
The software version of the drive can be checked by looking at Pr 11.29 (or Pr 0.50) and Pr 11.34. This
takes the form of xx.yy.zz where Pr 11.29 displays xx.yy and Pr 11.34 displays zz. (e.g. for software version
01.01.00, Pr 11.29 = 1.01 and Pr 11.34 displays 0).
Environmental statement
Control Techniques is committed to minimising the environmental impacts of its manufacturing operations
and of its products throughout their life cycle. To this end, we operate an Environmental Management
System (EMS) which is certified to the International Standard ISO 14001. Further information on the EMS,
our Environmental Policy and other relevant information is available on request, or can be found at
www.greendrives.com.
The electronic variable-speed drives manufactured by Control Techniques have the potential to save
energy and (through increased machine/process efficiency) reduce raw material consumption and scrap
throughout their long working lifetime. In typical applications, these positive environmental effects far
outweigh the negative impacts of product manufacture and end-of-life disposal.
Nevertheless, when the products eventually reach the end of their useful life, they must not be discarded
but should instead be recycled by a specialist recycler of electronic equipment. Recyclers will find the
products easy to dismantle into their major component parts for efficient recycling. Many parts snap
together and can be separated without the use of tools, while other parts are secured with conventional
fasteners. Virtually all parts of the product are suitable for recycling.
Product packaging is of good quality and can be re-used. Large products are packed in wooden crates,
while smaller products come in strong cardboard cartons which themselves have a high recycled fibre
content. If not re-used, these containers can be recycled. Polythene, used on the protective film and bags
for wrapping product, can be recycled in the same way. Control Techniques' packaging strategy favours
easily-recyclable materials of low environmental impact, and regular reviews identify opportunities for
improvement.
When preparing to recycle or dispose of any product or packaging, please observe local legislation and
best practice.
REACH legislation
EC Regulation 1907/2006 on the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and restriction of Chemicals
(REACH) requires the supplier of an article to inform the recipient if it contains more than a specified
proportion of any substance which is considered by the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) to be a
Substance of Very High Concern (SVHC) and is therefore listed by them as a candidate for compulsory
authorisation.
For current information on how this requirement applies in relation to specific Control Techniques products,
please approach your usual contact in the first instance. Control Techniques position statement can be

hazard, either through their intended behaviour or through incorrect operation due to a
fault. In any application where a malfunction of the drive or its control system could lead
to or allow damage, loss or injury, a risk analysis must be carried out, and where
necessary, further measures taken to reduce the risk - for example, an over-speed
protection device in case of failure of the speed control, or a fail-safe mechanical brake
in case of loss of motor braking.

Unidrive SP Short Form Guide 5


Issue Number: 2 www.controltechniques.com
The SAFE TORQUE OFF function has been approved by BGIA as meeting the requirements
of the following standards, for the prevention of unexpected starting of the drive:
EN 61800-5-2:2007 SIL 3
EN ISO 13849-1:2006 PL e
EN 954-1:1997 Category 3
The SAFE TORQUE OFF function may be used in a safety-related application. The
system designer is responsible for ensuring that the complete system is safe and
designed correctly according to the relevant safety standards.

Environmental limits
Instructions in this User Guide regarding transport, storage, installation and use of the
drive must be complied with, including the specified environmental limits. Drives must
not be subjected to excessive physical force.

Access
Drive access must be restricted to authorized personnel only. Safety regulations which
apply at the place of use must be complied with.

Fire protection
The drive enclosure is not classified as a fire enclosure. A separate fire enclosure must
be provided. For further information, refer to section 3.1 Fire protection on page 14.

Compliance with regulations


The installer is responsible for complying with all relevant regulations, such as national
wiring regulations, accident prevention regulations and electromagnetic compatibility
(EMC) regulations. Particular attention must be given to the cross-sectional areas of
conductors, the selection of fuses or other protection, and protective ground (earth)
connections.
This User Guide contains instruction for achieving compliance with specific EMC
standards.
Within the European Union, all machinery in which this product is used must comply
with the following directives:
2006/42/EC: Safety of machinery.
2004/108/EC: Electromagnetic Compatibility.

Motor
Ensure the motor is installed in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations.
Ensure the motor shaft is not exposed.
Standard squirrel cage induction motors are designed for single speed operation. If it is
intended to use the capability of the drive to run a motor at speeds above its designed
maximum, it is strongly recommended that the manufacturer is consulted first.
Low speeds may cause the motor to overheat because the cooling fan becomes less
effective. The motor should be installed with a protection thermistor. If necessary, an
electric forced vent fan should be used.
The values of the motor parameters set in the drive affect the protection of the motor.
The default values in the drive should not be relied upon.
It is essential that the correct value is entered in parameter 0.46 motor rated current.
This affects the thermal protection of the motor.

150% for 60s 150% for 8s 129% for 97s 129% for 15s
drive rated current
Generally the drive rated current is higher than the matching motor rated current
allowing a higher level of overload than the default setting as illustrated by the example
of a typical 4 pole motor.
The time allowed in the overload region is proportionally reduced at very low output
frequency on some drive ratings.
NOTE The maximum overload level which can be attained is independent of the speed.

3 Mechanical Installation
Safety information
Follow the instructions
The mechanical and electrical installation instructions must be adhered to. Any
questions or doubt should be referred to the supplier of the equipment. It is the
WARNING responsibility of the owner or user to ensure that the installation of the drive and any
external option unit, and the way in which they are operated and maintained, comply with
the requirements of the Health and Safety at Work Act in the United Kingdom or
applicable legislation and regulations and codes of practice in the country in which the
equipment is used.

Stored charge
The drive contains capacitors that remain charged to a potentially lethal voltage after
the AC supply has been disconnected. If the drive has been energized, the AC supply
WARNING must be isolated at least ten minutes before work may continue.
Normally, the capacitors are discharged by an internal resistor. Under certain, unusual
fault conditions, it is possible that the capacitors may fail to discharge, or be prevented
from being discharged by a voltage applied to the output terminals. If the drive has failed
in a manner that causes the display to go blank immediately, it is possible the capacitors
will not be discharged. In this case, consult Control Techniques or their authorized
distributor.

Competence of the installer


The drive must be installed by professional assemblers who are familiar with the
requirements for safety and EMC. The assembler is responsible for ensuring that the
WARNING end product or system complies with all the relevant laws in the country where it is to be
used.

The weights of the size 4, 5 and 6 drives are as follows:


Size 4: 30 kg (66 lb)
Size 5: 55 kg (121 lb)
WARNING Size 6: 75 kg (165 lb)
Use appropriate safeguards when lifting these models

NOTE When replacing the terminal covers the screws should be tightened with a maximum
torque of 1 N m (0.7 lb ft).

3.1 Fire protection


The drive enclosure is not classified as a fire enclosure. A separate fire enclosure must
be provided.
For installation in the USA, a NEMA 12 enclosure is suitable.
For installation outside the USA, the following (based on IEC 62109-1, standard for PV
inverters) is recommended.
Enclosure can be metal and/or polymeric, polymer must meet requirements which can
be summarized for larger enclosures as using materials meeting at least UL 94 class
5VB at the point of minimum thickness.
Air filter assemblies to be at least class V-2.

3.2 Mounting methods
Unidrive SP size 1 to 6 can be either surface or through-panel mounted using the
appropriate brackets. Size 0 can only be surface mounted.

If the drive has been used at high load levels for a period of time, the heatsink can reach
temperatures in excess of 70°C (158°F). Human contact with the heatsink should be
prevented.
WARNING

NOTE In order to achieve IP54 rating (NEMA 12) for through-panel mounting, an IP54 insert must
be installed (size 1 and 2). See section 10.7 on page 109. Derating applies when the IP54
insert is installed. Additionally, the gasket provided should be installed between the drive
and the backplate to ensure a good seal for the enclosure. If the heatsink mounted braking
resistor is to be used with the drive through-panel mounted, refer to the Braking Resistor
Installation Sheet supplied with the resistor prior to mounting the drive. For further
information refer to the Unidrive SP User Guide on the CD Rom supplied with the drive.

Figure 3-3 New ingress protective label

Ingress protective labels

NOTE The ingress protective labels (shown in Figure 3-3 above) should remain in place while the
drive is mounted, and until all the electrical wires have been connected. The labels should
be removed before first power up.

3.8 EMC filters
3.8.1 Internal filter
It is recommended that the internal EMC filter be kept in place unless there is a specific
reason for removing it.
If the drive is part of a regen system or is a Unidrive SP size 3 to 6 on an IT supply then
the internal EMC filter must be removed.
The internal EMC filter reduces radio-frequency emission into the line power supply.
Where the motor cable is short, it permits the requirements of EN61800-3:2004 to be
met for the second environment - for further information see the Unidrive SP User Guide
on the CD Rom supplied with the drive. For longer motor cables the filter continues to
provide a useful reduction in emission level, and when used with any length of shielded
motor cable up to the limit for the drive, it is unlikely that nearby industrial equipment will
be disturbed. It is recommended that the filter be used in all applications unless the
ground leakage current (on 400V, 50Hz supply) of 28mA for sizes 0 to 3 and 56mA for
sizes 4 to 6 is unacceptable or the above conditions are true.

Electric shock risk
The voltages present in the following locations can cause severe electric shock and
may be lethal:
WARNING
• AC supply cables and connections
• DC and brake cables, and connections
• Output cables and connections
• Many internal parts of the drive, and external option units
Unless otherwise indicated, control terminals are single insulated and must not be touched.

Isolation device
The AC supply must be disconnected from the drive using an approved isolation device
before any cover is removed from the drive or before any servicing work is performed.
WARNING

STOP function
The STOP function does not remove dangerous voltages from the drive, the motor or any
external option units.
WARNING

SAFE TORQUE OFF function


The SAFE TORQUE OFF function does not remove dangerous voltages from the drive,
the motor or any external option units.
WARNING

Stored charge
The drive contains capacitors that remain charged to a potentially lethal voltage after the
AC supply has been disconnected. If the drive has been energized, the AC supply must
WARNING be isolated at least ten minutes before work may continue.
Normally, the capacitors are discharged by an internal resistor. Under certain, unusual fault
conditions, it is possible that the capacitors may fail to discharge, or be prevented from being
discharged by a voltage applied to the output terminals. If the drive has failed in a manner
that causes the display to go blank immediately, it is possible the capacitors will not be
discharged. In this case, consult Control Techniques or their authorized distributor.

Equipment supplied by plug and socket


Special attention must be given if the drive is installed in equipment which is connected
to the AC supply by a plug and socket. The AC supply terminals of the drive are
WARNING connected to the internal capacitors through rectifier diodes which are not intended to
give safety isolation. If the plug terminals can be touched when the plug is disconnected
from the socket, a means of automatically isolating the plug from the drive must be used
(e.g. a latching relay).

Permanent magnet motors


Permanent magnet motors generate electrical power if they are rotated, even when the
supply to the drive is disconnected. If that happens then the drive will become energized
WARNING through its motor terminals.
If the motor load is capable of rotating the motor when the supply is disconnected, then
the motor must be isolated from the drive before gaining access to any live parts.

4.1 Supply types

Information
All drives are suitable for use on any supply type i.e TN-S, TN-C-S, TT and IT.

Safety
Supplies with voltage up to 600V may have grounding at any potential, i.e. neutral,
centre or corner (“grounded delta”)
Supplies with voltage above 600V may not have corner grounding

Information
Drives are suitable for use on supplies of installation category III and lower, according to

Product
IEC60664-1. This means they may be connected permanently to the supply at its origin
in a building, but for outdoor installation additional over-voltage suppression (transient
voltage surge suppression) must be provided to reduce category IV to category III.

Motor cable: use a motor cable with an overall shield. Connect the shield of the motor
cable to the ground terminal of the motor frame using a link that is as short as possible
and not exceeding 50mm (2in) long. A full 360° termination of the shield to the terminal
housing of the motor is beneficial.
Encoder cable: for best shielding use cable with an overall shield and individual shields
on twisted pairs, connect the cable as illustrated in Figure 4-12. Clamp the overall shield
to grounded metallic surfaces at both the encoder and the drive.
Brake resistor cable: the optional braking resistor should also be wired with shielded
cable. If unshielded wire is required refer to Unidrive SP User Guide for guidance.
Control cables: if the control wiring is to leave the enclosure, it must be shielded and
the shield(s) clamped to the drive using the grounding bracket. Remove the outer
insulating cover of the cable to ensure the shield(s) make contact with the bracket, but
keep the shield(s) intact until as close as possible to the terminals.

5.4 Menu structure
The drive parameter structure consists of menus and parameters.
The drive initially powers up so that only menu 0 can be viewed. The up and down arrow
buttons are used to navigate between parameters and once level 2 access (L2) has
been enabled (see Pr 0.49) the left and right buttons are used to navigate between
menus. For further information, refer to section 5.11 Parameter access level and
security on page 47.

Diagnostics

The menus and parameters roll over in both directions.


i.e. if the last parameter is displayed, a further press will cause the display to rollover

When changing between menus the drive remembers which parameter was last viewed
in a particular menu and thus displays that parameter.

7 Running the motor
This chapter takes the new user through all the essential steps to running a motor for
the first time, in each of the possible operating modes.

Ensure that no damage or safety hazard could arise from the motor starting
unexpectedly.
WARNING

The values of the motor parameters affect the protection of the motor.
The default values in the drive should not be relied upon.
It is essential that the correct value is entered in Pr 0.46 Motor rated current. This affects
CAUTION the thermal protection of the motor.

If the keypad mode has been used previously, ensure that the keypad reference has
been set to 0 using the buttons as if the drive is started using the keypad it will
CAUTION
run to the speed defined by the keypad reference (Pr 1.17).

If the intended maximum speed affects the safety of the machinery, additional
independent over-speed protection must be used.
WARNING

8 SMARTCARD
8.1 Introduction
This is a standard feature that enables simple configuration of parameters in a variety of
ways. The SMARTCARD can be used for:
• Parameter copying between drives
• Saving whole drive parameter sets
• Saving ‘differences from default‘ parameter sets
• Storing Onboard PLC programs
• Automatically saving all user parameter changes for maintenance purposes
• Loading complete motor map parameters
Size 0
When inserting the SMARTCARD, always ensure that ST SP0 arrow points upwards.
Size 1 to 6
The SMARTCARD is located at the top of the module under the drive display (if
installed) on the left-hand side. Ensure the SMARTCARD is inserted with the SP1-9
arrow pointing upwards.
The drive only communicates with the SMARTCARD when commanded to read or
write, meaning the card may be "hot swapped".

Encoder phase angle (servo mode only)


With drive software version V01.08.00 onwards, the encoder phase angles in Pr 3.25 and
Pr 21.20 are copied to the SMARTCARD when using any of the SMARTCARD transfer
WARNING methods.
With drive software version V01.05.00 to V01.07.01, the encoder phase angles in Pr 3.25
and Pr 21.20 are only copied to the SMARTCARD when using either Pr 0.30 set to Prog
(2) or Pr xx.00 set to 3yyy.
This is useful when the SMARTCARD is used to back-up the parameter set of a drive but
caution should be used if the SMARTCARD is used to transfer parameter sets between drives.
Unless the encoder phase angle of the servo motor connected to the destination drive is
known to be the same as the servo motor connected to the source drive, an autotune
should be performed or the encoder phase angle should be entered manually into Pr 3.25
(or Pr 21.20). If the encoder phase angle is incorrect the drive may lose control of the motor
resulting in an O.SPd or Enc10 trip when the drive is enabled.
With drive software version V01.04.00 and earlier, or when using software version
V01.05.00 to V01.07.01 and Pr xx.00 set to 4yyy is used, then the encoder phase angles
in Pr 3.25 and Pr 21.20 are not copied to the SMARTCARD. Therefore, Pr 3.25 and
Pr 21.20 in the destination would not be changed during a transfer of this data block from
the SMARTCARD.

Be aware of possible live terminals when inserting or removing the SMATRTCARD

The brake control functions are provided to allow well co-ordinated operation of an
external brake with the drive. While both hardware and software are designed to high
standards of quality and robustness, they are not intended for use as safety functions,
WARNING i.e. where a fault or failure would result in a risk of injury. In any application where the
incorrect operation of the brake release mechanism could result in injury, independent
protection devices of proven integrity must also be incorporated.

The brake control functions are provided to allow well co-ordinated operation of an
external brake with the drive. While both hardware and software are designed to high
standards of quality and robustness, they are not intended for use as safety functions,
WARNING i.e. where a fault or failure would result in a risk of injury. In any application where the
incorrect operation of the brake release mechanism could result in injury, independent
protection devices of proven integrity must also be incorporated.
