2.3 Residual risks

PELV circuits
The signal voltage and the control voltage of the devices are <30Vdc and have to be
carried out as PELV circuits. In this range the specification as PELV system, according
to EN 61800-5-1:2007 contains a protective measure against direct and indirect con
tact with dangerous voltage through a implemented safe separation in the system/
machine of the primary and the secondary side. We recommend to design the system/
machine with a safe separation (PELV Protective-Extra-Low-Voltage).

DANGER
HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK BY INADEQUATE PROTECTIVE SEPARATION

Only connect devices, electrical components or lines to the signal voltage con
nectors of these components that feature a sufficient, protective separation from
the connected circuits in accordance with the standards (EN 50178: 1999 - Elec
tronic equipment for use in power installations - Section 5.2.14.2).

Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.

Achieve a safe separation in the entire process of the electric circuit.


To protect from direct contact, always cover connections and contacts which guide
FELV (Functional Extra Low Voltage) voltages.
Avoid using FELV current circuits for safety reasons.
Design the cover or device connection so that it can only be removed by using a
tool.
The protection measures have to be followed on all connected devices.

rear wall as ac
tive cooling ele
ment

The design of the MC-4 servo amplifier allows for a large part of the heat that is gen
erated to be lead to the surroundings through the control cabinet rear wall. Under
certain circumstances, this may mean that the use of a cooling unit is unnecessary.
For this, the rear wall must be designed as a cooling element, and the MC-4 servo
amplifier must be bolted on to the rear wall in a thermally conductive manner (thermally
conductive paste).

No thermal con If heat dissipation via the rear wall is not desired (e.g. when using a sub plate), screw
tact with the the MC-4 servo amplifier to the rear wall using spacers.

Using Cooling Units


How to proceed when installing a cooling unit:

NOTICE
WATER DAMAGE RESULTING FROM CONDENSATE/CONDENSATION

Ensure proper installation of cooling unit.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in equipment damage.

Position the cooling units so that no condensate drips out of the cooling unit onto
electronic components or is sprayed by the cooling air flow.
Provide specially designed control cabinets for cooling units on the top of the
control cabinet.
Design the control cabinet so that the cooling unit fan cannot spray any accumu
lated condensate onto the electronic components when it restarts after a pause.
When using cooling units, use only well-sealed control cabinets so that warm,
humid outside air, which causes condensation, does not enter the cabinet.
When operating control cabinets with open doors during commissioning or main
tenance, ensure that the electronic components are at no time cooler than the air
in the control cabinet after the doors are shut, in order to prevent any condensa
tion.
Continue to operate the cooling unit even when the system is switched off, so that
the temperature of the air in the control cabinet and the air in the electronic com
ponents remains the same.
Set cooling unit to a fixed temperature of 40 C / 104 F.
For cooling units with temperature monitoring, set the temperature limit to

4.1

Bending radii, tightening torques and wire cross sections


Observe the following critical points when wiring:
1. Observe the minimum cross-sections of the cables.
2. Comply with branch conditions.
3. Check shields.
4. Ensure proper ground.
5. Ensure connection of the motors to the machine ground.
6. Prevent any ground loops.
7. Do not pull plug-in terminals when under load.
8. Use a large shielding area.
9. Do not interchange motor phases.
10. Do not interchange encoder connections.
11. Do not interchange the EMERGENCY STOP circuits. This has to be observed
especially when two different safety circuits are used for axis A and axis B of the
DoubleDrive.
Example:
If, for example, two parallel conductors are shown as coming from one point, you may
not run just one conductor and then branch it off at a later point. If it is wired this way,
induction loops (interference senders and antennas) as well as interfering potential
shifts may occur.

Integrated monitoring in the MC-4


There are 5 methods for protecting the IGBT power stage and the motor integrated
into the MC-4:
(1) The power stage is monitored for over currents. Any exceeding of the peak current

specified in the device is calculated using the following formula:

IOutSC = IMC4_cont 2.5 2 1.2 (Example: MC4 /10A, IOutSC = 42 A.)


The reaction time for the over-current detection < 125s (1 PWM cycle).
(2) A very quick short-circuit protection (reaction time < 5s) monitors the maximum per

missible output currents of the IGBT power stage. If these currents are exceeded, the
power stage switches off.

(3) It monitoring protects the IGBT power stage from thermal destruction through over

loading on the motor phases.

For more information see the Diagnosis section in the PacDrive Controller operating
instructions.
(4) The motor It calculation is performed continuously and protects the motor from over

load.

There is no protection of the DC bus in the MC-4. You must cover this using the input
mains protection.
For more information see the Diagnosis section in the PacDrive Controller operating
instructions.
(5) Phase monitoring for detection during failure of network phases.

Servo amplifiers on critical power supplies


The worldwide use of the PacDrive system in different mains power supply systems
requires protection measures by the network supply of the servo amplifier MC-4, be
cause critical network conditions might cause an increased wear, up to the point of
where it can lead to a damage of the power input connection of the MC-4. Integrated
mains filters and mains chokes provide effective protection in this case.
Mains filters avoid that interferences caused by the servo amplifiers are retroactive on
the mains power supply systems. However mains chokes are used for the current
limiting, to suppress circuit feedbacks and to protect against commutation notches.
They compensate the current peaks in the mains power supply systems and thereby
protect the servo amplifier MC-4 effectively from transient overvoltage.
Critical mains power supply conditions are present if the following ascertainments are
made when testing the system:

The asymmetry of the power supply is more than 3 %


The maximum power output of the power supply is higher than ten times the rated
power of the motor controller
Sudden interference with the power supply is to be expected

Cause of critical voltage curves


Critical voltage curves occur:

When Thyristor systems (e.g. Thyristor direct current drives) and servo amplifiers
are operated using the same power supply
When power factor compensations are switched on or off
when large inductances (induction ovens etc.) are switched on
when the mains power supply of the servo amplifier is switched on or off frequently
when, in the case of in-house power generation, the output voltage deviates sig
nificantly from the ideal sine curve
as a result of lightning striking the mains power supply

Effects of critical voltage curves


Such unfavorable operating conditions result in

28

damage to the network input rectifier of the servo amplifier MC-4 and in
increased wear or defects on the mains protection contacts.

Switch-on procedure
When the mains voltage is switched on, the DC circuit capacitors in the PacDrive MC-4

Protective earth ground concept of the mains power supply

The PacDrive MC-4 servo amplifier can be operated without a potential separation
on three-phase supply systems with a grounded star point.

Use an insulating transformer when operating on an ungrounded network. The


star point on the output side as well as the servo amplifier's PE connection must
be grounded.

WARNING
ELECTRIC SHOCK WITH UNGROUNDED NETWORKS

Use an insulating transformer when operating on an ungrounded network. The


star point on the output side as well as the servo amplifier's PE connection must
be grounded.
Otherwise only operate on grounded networks to avoid non-permitted excess
voltages between the outer conductors and the housing.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious injury.

4.3.5

Matching the mains voltage


This is how to match the mains voltage using a transformer according to the system's
power requirements if the mains voltage lies outside of the rated voltage specified in
the technical data:
Use an autotransformer for grounded networks.
For non-grounded networks, use an isolating transformer.
The PacDrive MC-4 is designed for a fixed connection to the mains power supply
system.

Fusing the mains connection

NOTICE
OVERLOADING THE LINES

In order to protect the system, also use a circuit breaker in the mains connection.
Provide for an external power protection for the mains supply and the power
connector.
Configure the mains contactor to ensure that insulation is maintained in the event
of a short circuit.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in equipment damage.

Use one of the following components as protection:


Melting fuses of operating classes gG (e.g. Telemechanique DF2-CNxx).
Power protection switch, characteristic C (e.g. Telemechanique GV2 MExx).
Cover all short circuit conditions between the mains supply and the IGBT jumper
with the mains contactor.

Select and size the mains contactor or other components for protection as follows:
Consult the phase current calculated in ECAM for calculation.
When several devices are involved, add up the phase currents and select at least
the next larger mains contactor (utilization categories AC2 and AC3). Recom
mendation: Mains contactor of the type Telemecanique LC1-Kxxx or LC1-Dxxx.
Calculate the mains contactor as follows:
IRated protection = 1.2 sum of phase currents
Calculate the short-circuit mains contactor as follows:
ISC_fuse = 5...10 sum of phase currents
The overload threshold (delayed triggering) can be individually set on circuit breakers.
Consider the increased inrush current of the devices. A unintentional triggering when
switching on is thereby avoided because the un-delayed over-current threshold of the
circuit breakers is much higher.
When the mains are connected, the DC circuit capacitors are charged by the internal
braking resistor. Thereby the charging current is:
I = (UN 2) / RBleeder
The charging circuit is bridged during operation.

Residual current operated protective device

DANGER
HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK CAUSED BY HIGH TOUCH VOLTAGE

Connect devices with a leakage current of 3.5 mAac or more through a fixed
connection to the power supply network.
In addition, implement one of the measures according to EN 50178:1997, Section
5.3.2.1.

Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.

Observe the following when using fault current protective devices:


If an additional protection measure against indirect or direct (by rated fault current
< 30 mA) contact comes into operation, then an upstream fault current circuitbreaker with 30 mA response threshold can be also triggered in normal operation
through the device leakage current of the MC-4.
An insulation fault or a direct contact can cause a current with a direct current
component in the ground conductor. Thereby the sensitivity of fault current circuitbreakers of the type A or AC is reduced and therewith also the ability to protect
other accessories in the system.

Therefore, only use the MC-4 with a universal current sensitive fault current circuitbreaker of the type B with a triggering threshold over 30mA (for example,
300 mA, as a protection measure against a fire outbreak through insulation
breakdown).

If on the line side of this electronic equipment a fault current protective device is used
to protect against direct or indirect contact, then only type B is permitted. Otherwise
another protection measure has to be used, like separating the electronic equipment
from the environment through double or reinforced insulation or from the line by a
transformer.
Handle the fault current protective circuit-breakers of the type B for the design and
mounting of electronic system carefully. All the fault current circuit breakers that are
upstream to a fault current circuit breaker of the type B up to the supply transfomer
have to be of the type B.
According to DIN EN 61800-5-1 Adjustable speed electrical power drive systems, Part
5-1: Safety requirements - Electrical, thermal and energy - are required on devices
with an operational current greater than 3,5 mAac or 10 mAdc.
Additionally, one of the following procedures is required:
1. Use a ground conductor cross section with at least 10 mm2 (AWG 6) Cu.
2. Monitor the ground conductor with a equipment that automatically shuts off in case
of a potential error.
3. Install the second conductor electric parallel to the protective conductor by using
separate terminals. In and of itself, this conductor must meet the requirements of
DIN VDE 0100 part 540.
The protective housing provides protection from indirectly touching live parts.

4.5 PacDrive Controllers and MC-4 Control Voltage Connection

4.5

PacDrive Controllers and MC-4 Control Voltage Connection


Observe the following instructions for the control voltage connection of PacDrive Con
troller and MC-4:
Design control voltage as PELV (protected extra-low voltage).
When supplying several consumers via the 24 V DC for the control voltage ensure
that the tolerances for the 24 V DC control voltage are maintained and all con
nected components maintain safe separation from the mains voltage circuits. This
is especially important in applications with inductors (solenoid valves, brakes,
etc.).
Measure the control voltage with an oscilloscope to recognize short-term drops in
the control voltage (e.g. when inductive sinks are turned on). If the tolerances for
the control voltage are not observed, diagnostic error 036 "External 24 VDC too
low" or WATCHDOG may arise.

NOTICE
DATA LOSS OR FLASH DISK FAILURE.

Because the control voltage of the controller may only be shut off when all
files are closed, use the UPS option for the controllers.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in equipment damage.

The input capacitance of the PacDrive controllers C400 and C600 is 4400 F. De
pending on the 24 V power supply unit used (24 V slew rate, internal resistance of the
power supply unit), an elevated startup current may arise.

4.6

DC circuit
The rectified mains voltage is stored in the "DC bus" in the PacDrive MC-4. Basically,
the DC bus consists of a rectifier and capacitors. The DC bus voltage is applied to
power connector X3 on the PacDrive MC-4.
DC circuit voltage limit.
During braking, the servo motor acts as a generator and feeds power into the DC bus
via the motor inverter. The energy is stored in the DC capacitors. This increases the
voltage in the DC bus. When the capacity of the capacitors is not sufficient to absorb
the power, it must be ensured that the DC bus voltage does not increase too much.

DANGER
ELECTRIC SHOCK CAUSED BY HIGH VOLTAGE

Maintain sufficient insulation when routing cables.


Do not ground DC bus (DC bus voltage may be up to 860 V).

Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.

The voltage monitoring measures the DC bus voltage and connects the DC bus via a
power transistor to a power resistor (braking resistor) when the limit value (approx.
820 V) is reached. The braking energy is converted to heat When the DC bus voltage
falls below the lower switching threshold (approx. 800 V), the braking resistor is dis
connected once more.

Connection of the DC circuits


In multi-axle applications, the DC circuits of the PacDrive MC-4s may be connected to
allow for power exchange. In doing this, the total DC circuit capacitance may not ex
ceed 2 mF. This means that e.g. twelve 3 A, six 10 A or two 22 A PacDrive MC-4s may
be connected.
Connect the DC buses as follows:

NOTICE
WIRING ERRORS

Do not exceed the maximum DC circuit capacitance of 2 mF when connect


ing the DC circuits.
Wire the mains feed in such a manner that it runs from the device with the
most power (short connection, large cross section) to the device with the
least power (longer connection, smaller cross section.)
Ensure that the maximum length of the cables does not exceed 0.5 m when
connecting the DC circuits.
Use a twisted cable with the largest possible cross section.
Note that it is only permissible to connect the DC circuits on units which are
served by a common mains contactor. Otherwise there is the danger that the
inverters may be overloaded.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in equipment damage.

38

Couple the PacDrive MC-4 servo amplifier using terminals db+ and db-.
In addition, connect the L1, L2 and L3 mains feeds since these are controlled by
a common mains contactor.
If desired, support the device's own braking resistors with an additional braking
resistor (braking resistor module BM-4).

5.2 Control circuit

Explanations for the control circuit sample design


This sample shows the basic design and the wiring of a PacDrive system without in
cluding safety aspects (e.g. redundant design of auxiliary contactors) in the control
circuit.
Due to EMC considerations, the brakes (PIN 7 bri+ and PIN 8 bri+) should be supplied
by a separate power supply unit. Otherwise, the brake (PIN 7 bri+ and PIN 8 bri+)
should be connected directly to the 24V DC power supply unit.

WARNING
DAMAGING THE HOLDING BRAKE

Monitor the separate holding brake power supply. This monitoring may be carried
out by the PacDrive Controller, for example, which monitors the voltage either
directly via an input (no potential separation from the brake voltage) or via an
auxiliary relay (floating).

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious injury.


InverterEnable When the InverterEnable relay input is switched off, the PWM signals to the end stage
(safe stop) are interrupted. The motor is immediately switched to a torque-free state. If Inverter

Enable is not used, the input should be set so that it is always 24V.

wd and rdy

wd (PacDrive Controller) and rdy (PacDrive MC-4 and braking resistor module BM-4)
are relay outputs that are closed during the correct operation. They should be con
nected in series to the mains contactor (possibly using an auxiliary contactor), so that,
in the event of a serious fault, the power supply will be switched off.

NOTICE
WIRING ERRORS

Wire the PacDrive servo amplifier and the PacDrive Controller in such a manner
that, in case of a serious malfunction via the output wd (MAx-4, C200, C400,
C600, P600) and rdy (MC-4), the mains feed will be interrupted.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in equipment damage.

Functional safety - safety connections

6.1

Process minimizing risks associated with the machine


The goal of designing machines safely is to protect people. The risk associated with
machines with electrically controlled drives comes chiefly from moving machine parts.
Hazard and risk analysis
On the basis of the system configuration and utilization, a hazard and risk analysis can
be carried out for the system (for example, according to EN ISO 14121 or EN ISO
13849-1:2006). The results of this analysis must be considered when using the In
verter Enable safety function. The circuit resulting from this analysis may deviate from
the application examples. For example, additional safety components may be re
quired. In principle, the results from the hazard and risk analysis have priority.
The EN ISO 13849-1 Safety of machinery - Safety-related parts of control systems Part 1: General principles for design describes an iterative process for the selection
and design of safety-related parts of controllers to reduce the risk to the machine to a
reasonable degree:
This is how you perform risk assessment and risk minimization according to EN ISO
14121:
1. Define the boundary of the machine.
2. Identifying risks associated with the machine.
3. Assessing risks.
4. Evaluating risks.
5. Minimizing risks by:
- intrinsically safe design
- protective devices
- user information (see EN ISO 12100-1:2003, Figure 4)
6. Designing safety-related controller parts (SRP/CS, Safety-Related Parts of the
Control System) in an interactive process.
This is how you design the safety-related controller parts in an interactive process:
Identifying necessary safety functions that are executed via SRP/CS (Safety-Re
lated Parts of the Control System).
Determining required properties for each safety function.
Determining the required performance level PLr.
Identifying safety-related parts executing the safety function.
Determining the performance level PL of the afore-mentioned safety-related parts.
Verifying performance level PL for the safety function (PL PLr).
Checking, if all requirements have been met (validation).

Circuit suggestion for PacDrive system with MC-4

6.2.1

InverterEnable function
Functional Description
With the Inverter Enable function (IE) you can bring drives to a safe stop. This Inverter
Enable function relates to the components

MC-4

The Inverter Enable function requires further components, e.g. emergency stop, safety
switching unit (optional) and connections. The following chapter describes the correct
use of the Inverter Enable function.
The Inverter Enable function must be used correctly to enable proper operation. Nev
ertheless, the accidental loss of the Inverter Enable function cannot be ruled out. Such
losses are only restricted to the upper limit required by the relevant safety standards.
(see 6.2.8 Safety standards) This is expressed by the following characteristic values:

MTTF_d and DC_avg according to EN ISO 13849-1

In the sense of the relevant standards, the requirements of the stop category 0 (Safe
Torque Off, STO) and stop category 1 (Safe Stop 1, SS1) can be met. Both categories
lead to a torque-free motor while SS1 takes this state after a predefined time. As a
result of the hazard and risk analysis, it may be necessary to choose an additional
brake as a safety option (e.g. for hanging loads).
Scope of operation (designated safety function)
In the circuit suggestions given, the "Safe Torque OFF, STO" safety function is carried
out by switching off the trigger signals of the power stage. They transmit the PWM
signals to the power stage (pulse pattern lock) using the "InverterEnable" signal.

Schneider Electric

After the emergency stop device is activated, a controlled ramp down takes place
for the drive.
In the process, the DC bus voltage increases until the braking resistor resistor is
switched on.
In the braking resistor, the energy which is fed back from the motor is converted to
heat.
The K1 power circuit breaker and/or the Inverter Enable signal must remain ener
gized until the drive stops.
At the latest after the normal ramp down time, the Inverter Enable signal is switched
off by the delayed contacts of K3.
After this, the drive is in a safe stop.

Figure 6-1: MC-4 InverterEnable block diagram


Operating prin The Inverter Enable function safely switches off the motor torque. It is sufficient to set
ciple a logical zero at the function input. There is no need to interrupt the power supply.

Standstill, however, is not monitored.

Safe InverterEnable is synonymous with "Safe Torque Off (STO)" according to IEC
state 61800-5-2. This torque-free state is automatically entered when potential errors are

detected and is therefore the safe state of the drive.

Mode of opera The safety circuit with InverterEnable was developed to minimize wear on the mains
tion contactor. When the stop or the emergency stop button is activated, the mains con

tactor is not switched off. The safe stop is achieved by removing the InverterEnable
for the opto-couple in the power stage. Thus, the PWM signals cannot control the
power stage, so that a startup of the drives is safely prevented (pulse pattern lock).
The error monitoring ensures that the mains contact is switched off when an error
occurs. The error monitoring of the InverterEnable function in the controller takes
place through an InverterEnable signal, which is produced in the PacDrive MC-4 and
transmitted to the PacDrive controller via the sercos interface. If this signal does not
correspond to the reference state at the PacDrive controller's EmergencyStop input,
an diagnostic message is triggered.

Stop In the application proposal, the emergency stop device is designed with two channels.
category 1 The ramp down is triggered and the drive is brought to a standstill using un-delayed

contacts. The K1 power circuit breaker and/or the Inverter Enable signal are switched
off using delayed contacts (EN 60-204-1 stop category 1). Shutting off using the off
button has the same effect as using the emergency stop button. Thus, this button is
wired in series with the emergency stop contacts. When switching off, the drive on
PacDrive MC-4, independent of the PacDrive Controller, can also be brought to a
controlled standstill using the "MC en" signal. But this function has the disadvantage
that, under certain circumstances, the drives must be re-referenced. The emergency
stop triggers a redundant shutdown of the drives. The following errors are thereby
safely controlled:

44

If the ramp down phase of a drive is uncontrolled because of an error, the Inver
terEnable signal is switched off after the deceleration time, which is set on the
safety switching device (drive is moving to a stop).

PacDrive Projecting Notes

Schneider Electric

6.2 Circuit suggestion for PacDrive system with MC-4

If, after the ramp down the PWM signals are not switched off by the IE relay in the
PacDrive MC-4, the power supply is cut off automatically by switching off mains
contactor K1.

Independent of these measures, the errors that do not affect the safety function are
recognized by the controller and a start of the drives is prevented. Contactor K4 pre
vents the mains contactor from being switched on.
Execute Proceed as follows to deactivate the InverterEnable function:
muting

WARNING

UNCONTROLLED AXIS MOVEMENT

Ensure that no-one has access to the hazard area as long as the DC bus still
has residual charge.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious injury.

Supply the IE input permanently with 24 V to deactivate the InverterEnable func


tion.

All components related to the safety functions from the sensor to the drive shaft
or the driven mechanics have to be considered.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious injury.


Response time The maximum response time until switch off with the Inverter Enable function is 12ms.
with InverterEn This is the time from the corresponding change of the "InverterEnable" input on the

correctly, then the time for the mains contactor K1 and the discharge time of the DC
bus have to be considered. The times depend on the application.

Muting re The Muting response time for switching off (i.e. without the Inverter Enable function)

Setup, installation, and mounting


Prevent possible functional disorder
The following measures prevent a possible functional disorder through conductive
pollution or parts falling into the device:

DANGER
LOSS OF THE ELECTRICAL SAFETY

Install the MC-4 in a control cabinet or a housing with at least IP 54.


Compliance with the clearances and creepage distances according to EN 50178

Failure to follow this instruction will result in death or serious injury.

Avoid overvoltages
To avoid overvoltages in the system, proceed as follows:

DANGER
LOSS OF THE ELECTRICAL SAFETY

Only operate the MC-4 with certified power supply units as power supply
according to EN 60950 or EN 50178 (so-called "Safe voltage outputs").
These power supply units do not deliver an overvoltage over 120 Vdc for
more than 120ms or no permanent overvoltage over 60 Vdc.

Failure to follow this instruction will result in death or serious injury.

Only operate the drive system with approved, specified cables, accessories- and
spare parts by Schneider Electric.

Avoid unintentional restart

DANGER
UNINTENTIONAL RESTART OF THE MOTOR

Ensure that the restart of the motor (e.g. when the power supply returns after an
outage or after a safety requirement has been removed) to reach the stop cate
gory is only possible after receipt of an enable signal.
Ensure that the enable signal meets the specified safety criteria.

Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.

6 Functional safety - safety connections

6.2.3

Application proposal

Safety switch The safety switching unit implements the evaluation and control of the on and off or
ing unit emergency stop buttons, and, under certain circumstances, the safety gate contacts.

Contactors

The safety switching unit must fulfill at least the requirements for the PLr.
Ensure that 1 or 2 (see Hardware-Enable) undelayed and 2 delayed contact paths
are available.
The safety switching unit delay time (contactor K3) should be only marginally
higher than the braking time needed for safely bringing the drive to a stop in an
emergency.
Secure the safety switching unit according to the documentation.
Check, if the safety involved auxiliary contactors have positively driven contacts.
Dimension and secure the contactors according to the utilization category.

Off or The off and emergency stop buttons have the same function. The circuitry can be
emergency designed with one or two channels (as shown in the circuitry example for the safety
stop circuit with InverterEnable / sheet 1 (see 6.2.3 Application proposal) and InverterEn

able / sheet 2) (see 6.2.3.2 Wiring diagram for PacDrive controller C200). The same
function can also be achieved through safety door contacts (NC contact), which, ac
cordingly, are wired in one or two channels and in series with the emergency stop
contacts.

When the off or emergency stop button is activated, the outputs of the safety switching
unit K3 switch off, delayed or non-delayed. The PacDrive controller detects the switch
ing off over the non-delayed contact and brings the motors to a controlled standstill.
Optionally, the "MC en" signal can be switched off over the second path using nondelayed contacts. This triggers an independent standstill in PacDrive MC-4 and the
PWM is switched off. After the maximum stopping time for all drives elapses, the de
layed contacts of the safety switching unit K3 switch off. The time until stop depends
on the application. Select as short a time as possible. Through this, the "InverterEna
ble" relay in the PacDrive MC-4 switch off. In the time between when the delayed
contacts of K3 switch off and when the InverterEnable switching contact ieo closes,
the mains contactor is de-energized. Since the decay time of the InverterEnable relay
is 12 ms lower than the decay time of the mains contactor, the mains contactor re
mains energized and thereby the power supply switched on. The mains contactor's
decay time is also influenced by the design of the quenching circuit. When using a
free-wheeling diode as a quenching circuit, a sufficient long dropout delay is provided.
By switching off the "InverterEnable" the PWM control signals of the power stage are
switched off. This prevents an arising of the rotating field. The galvanic isolation from
the power supply can only be achieved by switching off the mains contactor or main
switch.
Off button If desired, the off button (not the emergency stop button) may be connected to one of
with stop- the PacDrive controller's inputs instead of being connected in series to the emergency
category 2 stop button. The level on this input must then be evaluated in the PacDrive controller

and the drives must be brought to a stop. Through this, a flatter braking ramp can be
achieved upon stopping operation, so that, depending on circumstances, wear during
braking can be reduced. No safety function is realized when switching off using this
circuit. Pressing the off button only achieves EN 60 204-1 stop category 2. This is no
safety function.
A safe stop is still required for an emergency stop.

on If the "On" button is pressed, and neither the off or the emergency stop buttons are

pressed, the safety switching unit K3 is switched on. If there is no error in the PacDrive
controller, the K4 contactor is switched on via the mains contactor output of the Pac
Drive controller. If, in addition, the "WD" contacts of the PacDrive controller and the
"rdy" contact of the PacDrive MC-4 are closed and there is no error in the "Inverter

Enable" circuit, the mains contactor K1 is switched on. The K3 contacts switch on the
"InverterEnable" and thereby the PWM signals of the drives are enabled.
Notes concerning the application proposal:
Hardware Ena The Hardware Enable signal (MC_en) may be connected directly to L0 (+24 V). In this
ble (MC_en) case, the machine comes to a controlled stop through the PacDrive Controller when

it is switched off. The drives can be stopped synchronously to one another. They need
not be homed when it is switched on again.
If the MC_en signal (as in figure no. EL-810-05-08, sheet 1) is optionally connected
over a non-delayed contact of the safety switching unit K3, the drives are brought to
a standstill using the "Best possible stop" in PacDrive MC-4, independent of the posi
tion's setpoint. In some cases, the drives must be homed when they are switched on
again. The MC_en signal is no safety function.
Which method for the standstill is used depends on the application. In interaction with
the safety function Safe stop both methods are equal.

Error The PacDrive controller monitors the status of the safety switching unit, which controls
detection the InverterEnable signal, of the "EmergencyStop" input.

The InvEnableActive signal is decoupled via the relay K5 from the signal InverterEn
able. If only the "Inverter Enable" inputs of the MC-4 are connected to output (38) of
the safety switching unit K3, then the signal can be connected directly to the PacDrive
controller input InvEnableActive. When using the iSH the InverterEnable signal has to
be decoupled.

WARNING
LOSS OF THE SAFETY FUNCTION

Decouple the InverterEnable signal from the controller if you are controlling the
iSH- and MC system with the same shut-off signal as the safety function.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious injury.

All devices: If the internal positively driven relay in the MC-4 is not opened, then the
mains contactor will open in the application. This has to be indicated to the user as an
error, so that appropriate measures can be carried out for the error elimination or a
start of the machine through the PacDrive Cx00 Controller is prevented.
When using the MC-4/50A device an additional comparison between the "InvEnActive"
input on the PacDrive Cx00 Controller and the "InverterEnable" sercos drive parameter
from the MC-4/50A is necessary. If the InverterEnable signal transmitted from the
PacDrive servo amplifier via the sercos interface does not correspond to the status of
the InvEnableActive signal (taking the delay times into account), an error is detected
and the mains contactor K1 is shut off via the contactor K4. The system can only be
turned on again after the error is corrected.
The certified diagnostic function block "FB_MC450AIEDiag" can be found in the
"PD_MC450A_V001600.lib" library. This library will be provided by your Schneider
Electric contact partner.
Further information for the implementation can be found in the online help.
The function of the mains contactor is monitored via the "MainsWatch" input. When
the mains contactor "K1" is switched off, the "MainsWatch" auxiliary contactor must
be closed; when the mains contactor is on, the auxiliary contactor must be open.

Commissioning

6.2.5

Carry out a functional test of the STO function for all drives that need the safety
function.
Especially check the correct application of the axes without Inverter Enable func
tion.
Complete installation in accordance with the EMC regulations and further speci
fications in the device operating manuals.
Then commission the drive systems.

Prevention of reasonably foreseeable misuse

WARNING
STAYING IN THE HAZARD AREA

At plant start-up, the connected drives are normally outside the range of vision
of the plant personnel and cannot be monitored directly.

Only start the plant if there are no persons within the working area of moving plant
components and when the plant can be operated safely.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious injury.

Checkplug
connections

Check all the terminal units, connectors and other connections for a correct and
secure fit.
Only use robust connectors and secure fixings.
Check the protective earth ground 24Vdc PELV supply.
Check the wiring of the safety functions to the axes to avoid an interchange of the
IE input with the 24V supply.
Use coded connectors and perform a commissioning test.
Use only suitable transport packaging to forward or return individual devices.

Acting of The safe state of the motor is the torque-free output shaft. If external forces act upon
external the output shaft, it will not necessarily maintain its position. Take additional precautions
forces if this is one of the safety targets of the hazard and risk analysis.
Hanging &
pulling
loads

WARNING
UNCONTROLLED MOVEMENT OF THE AXES

Do not use the internal holding brake as a safety function.


Only use specified external brakes as safety function.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious injury.

If a safe blocking from hanging / pulling loads is the safety target of the machine,
then you are only able to perform this by adding an appropriate brake as a safety
function.

The device does not provide its own safe output to connect an external safety brake.

6.2.6

Maintenance
As the Inverter Enable function has been designed for a defined lifetime (see 6.2.8
Safety standards), no routine checks are necessary to maintain or verify functional
safety. After this lifetime has elapsed a statement about the Inverter Enable function
cannot be made due to the aging of the component. If you want to ensure the func
tionality in terms of safety standards and product liability after this period, you need to
replace the device that includes the safety function.
Subject the device to a complete function test after replacement.
Keep a logbook for tracing the maintenance history of the machine and note the re
placed components (as per EN 62061:2005).
Further information can be found in the "Operating instructions PacDrive MC-4 servo
amplifier".

6.2.7

Physical environment
The system is not protected against physical or chemical sources of danger by any
design features. Possible sources of danger include:

toxic,
explosive,
corrosive,
highly reactive, or
inflammable types.

WARNING
LOSS OF THE INVERTER ENABLE FUNCTION

Observe the ambient, storage and transport temperatures of the individual com
ponents indicated in the operating manuals of the components.
Please prevent the formation of moisture during the operation, storage and trans
port of individual components.
Please adhere to the vibration and shock requirements specified in the operating
manuals for the components when operating, storing and transporting system
components.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious injury.

In principle, all plugs and plug-in connectors which include InverterEnable must be
designed according to IP54 or higher. Control cabinet devices such as a MC-4 (for
example) do not have this high protection class and are therefore not designed for the
use in an environment according to IP54 or higher (for example, control cabinets).

Extended safety functions for PacDrive MC-4 with SMX Safe PLC
To implement the safety functions, the MC-4 servo amplifier of the PacDrive System
has the "Safe stop" (Save Torque Off) as an integrated safety function. An input on
the MC-4 (InverterEnable) blocks the control signals to the power stage by means of
a positively driven relay. This makes it possible to achieve the safety function described
below:
In the case of a safety request (e.g. emergency stop) by the user, the first reaction of
the controller is a controlled stop.
Then the safe stop is ensured by means of an external safety switching unit by lifting
the Inverter Enable signal (IE).

The increasing flexibility and complexity of packaging machines also means higher
requirements for the safety functions of a controller. In cooperation with the company
BBH, Schneider Electric offers an alternative solution.
The combination of the SMX Save PLC safety switching unit by BBH and an MC-4
servo amplifier makes it possible to implement the following functions:

Safe stop with brake ramp (SS1) in case of safety gate, E stop, jogging, change of
operating mode, i.e. external time control of the brake ramp
Alternatively, additional STO function in case of safety gate, E stop, jogging,
change of operating mode
Several protective circuits (E stop and safety gates work for different drives)
Speed monitoring during setup mode (e.g. jogging while the safety gate is open).
Short reaction time (<20 ms) when the limit speed is exceeded as STO (without
brake ramp).
Stop monitoring (with open safety gate / manual closure of safety gate)
Monitoring of several axes
(with SMX11; Monitoring of one axis)
(with SMX12; Monitoring of up to two axes)

6.3 Extended safety functions for PacDrive MC-4 with SMX Safe PLC

6.3.1

Functional Description
When a project is planned, the use of specific protection mechanisms depends es
sentially on the expected risk potential of the application. The risk potential can be
assessed by means of suitable risk analyses taking into account the relevant ambient
conditions. Different requirements for each operating mode (initial operation, jogging,
etc.) and for each piece of equipment (safety gate, cover, etc.) can be assigned to the
safety functions (STO, SS1, SS2, SDI, SLI, etc.).
The following example will demonstrate the implementation of safety functions with
SMX 12. The example is for an application with three drives. Two axes are monitored
with SMX 12. In automatic mode, the three axes can be moved freely by the PacDrive
controller. Depending on the operating mode, the individual axes are controlled by the
PacDrive controller. SMX 12 monitors the corresponding safety function via the en
coder interface and switches the drives to a safe state (STO) in case of an error or
emergency stop. For this purpose, the Inverter Enable signal of the PacDrive MC-4 is
switched off.
SMX12 will only shut off the mains contactor K1 in case of an internal error of the safety
circuit. This means that the mains contactor K1 remains active in case of an emergency
stop or if the safety gate is open.
No safety relevant information is transmitted to the PacDrive controller via a bus in
terface (IOs, Profibus DP, etc.). Only the information concerning which safety element
(emergency stop, safety gate...) was activated is transmitted. This enables the Pac
Drive controller to trigger a controlled stop of the individual axes before SMX 12 puts
them into STO state by means of Inverter Enable. Usually this happens with a delay
of several seconds, so that the PacDrive controller has the opportunity to bring the
axes to a controlled stop.

Figure 6-15: Function block diagram (FBD) for E-stop and safety gate circuit

In the case of switching off, emergency stop and opening the safety gate in automatic
mode, an E-stop message is immediately sent to the PacDrive controller. Then the
two timers monitor the stop time. Normally, the ESS functions are used to monitor the
brake ramp. However, two effects must be taken into account:
1. The latent time cannot be set longer than 100 ms, which is too short for the MC-4
to lift "ControllerEnable" and the brake to engage.
2. Depending on the motion profile of the drive, the drive may have to accelerate
again. However, the ESS block generates a dynamic brake ramp depending on

68

PacDrive Projecting Notes

Schneider Electric

6.3 Extended safety functions for PacDrive MC-4 with SMX Safe PLC

the current velocity. Accordingly, the maximum monitored velocity, during activa
tion of the ESS monitoring module, depends on the current velocity.
For this reason, time monitoring of the brake ramp is preferred in our example.
If a CAN/PROFIBUS DP module is used, wiring requirements can be reduced as the
input information does not need to be connected for the PacDrive controller as well.
The figure below illustrates the monitoring for the setup mode.
There are two monitoring paths that can be activated / deactivated with the JOG button.
When changing into setup mode, a delay time for a brake ramp is monitored, so that
any operation that may be in progress can be stopped when the operating mode is
changed. If the safety gate was already open, the drive is already standing.

In this case, the OFF button has an immediate effect on the EmergencyStop signal.
After a set time (e.g. 5 s) the mains contactor is opened.

All conditions for the activation of Inverter Enable are combined. If a signal is missing,
the STO of the connected MC-4 drives is triggered immediately. The positively driven
IEO contacts are monitored by the output function block itself. If an error is detected,
an alarm is triggered in SMX12, which results in the switch-off of all outputs and thus
the disengagement of the mains contactor K1.

Circuit suggestion: PacDrive system with DB-5 and iSH

6.4.1

InverterEnable function
Functional Description
With the Inverter Enable function (IE) you can bring drives to a safe stop. This Inverter
Enable function relates to the components

PS-5
DB-5
iSH

The Inverter Enable function requires further components, e.g. emergency stop, safety
switching unit (optional) and connections. The following chapter describes the correct
use of the Inverter Enable function.
The Inverter Enable function must be used correctly to enable proper operation. Nev
ertheless, the accidental loss of the Inverter Enable function cannot be ruled out. Such
losses are only restricted to the upper limit required by the relevant safety standards.
(see 6.4.8 Safety standards) This is expressed by the following characteristic values:

PFH and SFF according to IEC 61508:2010


MTTF_d and DC_avg according to EN ISO 13849-1

In the sense of the relevant standards, the requirements of the stop category 0 (Safe
Torque Off, STO) and stop category 1 (Safe Stop 1, SS1) can be met. Both categories
lead to a torque-free motor while SS1 takes this state after a predefined time. As a
result of the hazard and risk analysis, it may be necessary to choose an additional
brake as a safety option (e.g. for hanging loads).
Scope of operation (designated safety function)
The Inverter Enable function ranges over PS-5, DB-5 and iSH, referred to as "iSH
System".
The function is selected via a signal (pair) on the input of the PS-5 (2), which is for
warded to all the drives (7) of this PS-5 group. The supply voltage (AC) needs not be
interrupted (see figure below).

Operating prin The Inverter Enable function safely switches off the motor torque. It is sufficient to set
ciple a logical zero at the function input. There is no need to interrupt the power supply.

Standstill, however, is not monitored.

Safe Inverter Enable is synonymous with "Safe Torque Off (STO)" according to IEC
state 61800-5-2:2007. This torque-free state is automatically entered when potential errors

are detected and is therefore the safe state of the drive.

Mode of opera By setting a logical one for the "Inverter Enable" input on the PS-5, the power stage
tion control of all iSH drives connected to this PS-5 become possible (necessary condition).

If, on the other hand, this input is set to a logical zero, the power supply at the Inverter
Enable input is interrupted and no torque can be built up in the connected iSH
drives.
This "Inverter Enable" input has a redundant design (a.c. voltage from which the PS-5
generates d.c. voltage which is fed to the hybrid cables.). The failure of one of the two
channels already results in the logical zero. When the power supply is cut off, the power
stage becomes de-energized, and an diagnostic message is generated. The motor
can no longer generate torque and stops unbraked.
You can use the InverterEnable function to implement the control function "Stopping
in case of emergency" (EN 60204-1) for stop categories 0 and 1. Use a suitable ex
ternal safety circuit to prevent the unexpected restart of the drive after a stop, as re
quired in the machine directive (see application proposal (see 6.4.3 Application pro
posals)).

Stop In stop category 0 (Safe Torque Off, STO) the drive stops in an uncontrolled manner.
category 0 If this means a hazard to your machine, you must take suitable measures (see hazard

and risk analysis).

Stop For stops of category 1 (Safe Stop 1, SS1) you can request a controlled stop via the
category 1 PacDrive Controller. The controlled stop by the PacDrive Controller is not safe, not

monitored and not guaranteed to work in case of power outage or a potential error.
The final switch off in the safe state is ensured by switching off the "Inverter Enable"
input. This has to be implemented by means of an external safety switching device
with safe delay (see application proposal).

Execute Proceed as follows to deactivate the InverterEnable function:


muting

WARNING

UNCONTROLLED AXIS MOVEMENT

Ensure that no-one has access to the hazard area as long as the DC bus still
has residual charge.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious injury.

You can deactivate the Inverter Enable function by using the optional module
DIS1.
The safe state can only be achieved if the power supply is switched off.
To avoid misconfigurations, you now have to define the configuration that is to be
used with the parameter InverterEnableConfig of the iSH in the PLC con
figuration.

If the set mode does not match the real configuration of the iSH, then the diagnostic
message 123 Error inverter enable with "Ext. diagnostic = x(HW)!=y(Cfg)" is trig
gered. The drive does not switch to control mode as long as the configuration is wrong.
The error can only be acknowledged if the set InverterEnableConfig corresponds
to the real configuration. This can be used to divide the drives on a PS-5 in two groups
if it is technically not possible to use two PS-5 for the two groups in the existing ma
chine.
If only some of the drives shall be put in the safe state on a PS-5 (1), this can be
achieved via the configuration of the drives. This can be of interest e.g. for cleaning
modes (6). If an optional module DIS1 (9) is set, then the IE signal is ignored. To
implement the emergency stop, the supply voltage on the PS-5 has to be interrupted,
see figure below.

Response time

WARNING
UNCONTROLLED MOVEMENT OF THE SYSTEM

Should a response time be required because of the risk assessment of the ma


chine, the total response time of the machine has to be considered.
All components related to the safety functions from the sensor to the drive shaft
or the driven mechanics have to be considered.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious injury.


Response time The response time until the shutdown with the InverterEnable function (without using
with InverterEn the DIS1) is no more than 20 ms. This is the time from the corresponding change of
able the InverterEnable input at the PS-5 to the torque-free motor (Safe Torque Off, STO).
function
Muting re The Muting response time for switching off (i.e. without the Inverter Enable function)
sponse time depends on the load on the machine and has to be determined from the application.

The axes without Inverter Enable function become torque-free via the mains contactor
and come to a stop.

Setup, installation, and mounting


Prevent possible functional disorder
The following measures prevent a possible functional disorder through conductive
pollution or parts falling into the device:

DANGER
LOSS OF THE ELECTRICAL SAFETY

Install PS-5 in a control cabinet or housing of at least IP 54.


Compliance with the clearances and creepage distances according to EN 50178

Failure to follow this instruction will result in death or serious injury.

Avoid overvoltages
To avoid overvoltages in the system, proceed as follows:

DANGER
LOSS OF THE ELECTRICAL SAFETY

PacDrive iSH must only be operated with power supplies certified according
to EN 60950 or EN 50178 (so-called "safe voltage outputs"). These power
supply units do not deliver an overvoltage over 120 Vdc for more than 120ms
or no permanent overvoltage over 60 Vdc.

Failure to follow this instruction will result in death or serious injury.

Only operate the drive system with approved, specified cables, accessories- and
spare parts by Schneider Electric.

Avoid unintentional restart

DANGER
UNINTENTIONAL RESTART OF THE MOTOR

Ensure that the restart of the motor (e.g. when the power supply returns after an
outage or after a safety requirement has been removed) to reach the stop cate
gory is only possible after receipt of an enable signal.
Ensure that the enable signal meets the specified safety criteria.

Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.

To avoid that the system is in a safe state continuously, proceed as follows:


Observe the specified maximum configuration (number of devices, network struc
ture and cable length), or else a power drop of the InverterEnable signal will occur
over the cable length and therefore the system will be in the safe state continu
ously. The system may only contain max. 4 PS-5, 40 DB-5 and 95 iSH motors.
Do not use pulsed semiconductor outputs with external safety switch devices.

Controller Cx00 with safety switch device for two protective circuits
EL-1056-05-xx: InverterEnable circuit iSH/PS-5 and DIS1 when using the PacDrive
Controller Cx00 with a safety switch device

Notes on application proposals


General

All application proposals provide for a protected IE+/IE- wiring (control cabinet
IP54) from the safety switch device to the PS-5, as faults need to be ruled out.
All application proposals are designed with two protective circuits (emergency stop
and safety gate). As required, one of those can be removed.
Protection against automatic restart is ensured by the external safety switch device.

Notes on The mains contactor K1 in this circuit proposal is not necessary for functional safety
EL-1054 purposes. It is, however, used in the application proposal for the device protection of

PS-5/iSHs.

Notes on To monitor the mains contactor, the positively driven contacts of the mains contactor
EL-1055 K1 must be monitored by the PacDrive Controller when switching it on. This can be

accomplished by using the ContactorControl software component either separately


or integrated into the template.

Notes on To monitor the mains contactors, the positively driven contacts of the mains contactors
EL-1056 K1 and K2 must be monitored by the PacDrive Controller when switching them on.

This can be accomplished by using the ContactorControl software component either


separately or integrated into the template.

6.4.4

Commissioning

6.4.5

Carry out a functional test of the STO function for all drives that need the safety
function.
Especially check the correct application of the axes without Inverter Enable func
tion.
Complete installation in accordance with the EMC regulations and further speci
fications in the device operating manuals.
Then commission the drive systems.

Prevention of reasonably foreseeable misuse

WARNING
STAYING IN THE HAZARD AREA

At plant start-up, the connected drives are normally outside the range of vision
of the plant personnel and cannot be monitored directly.

Only start the plant if there are no persons within the working area of moving plant
components and when the plant can be operated safely.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious injury.

Checkplug
connections

Check all terminals, connectors and other connections on all system components
for correct and firm fit.
Only use robust connectors and secure fixings.
Check the protective earth ground 24Vdc PELV supply.
Check the wiring of the safety function to the axes to avoid an interchange of the
IEA and IEB inputs as well as the 24V supply.
Use coded connectors and perform a commissioning test.
Use only suitable transport packaging to forward or return individual devices.

Acting of The safe state of the motor is the torque-free output shaft. If external forces act upon
external the output shaft, it will not necessarily maintain its position. Take additional precautions
forces if this is one of the safety targets of the hazard and risk analysis.
Hanging &
pulling
loads

WARNING
UNCONTROLLED MOVEMENT OF THE AXES

Do not use the internal holding brake as a safety function.


Only use specified external brakes as safety function.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious injury.

If a safe blocking from hanging / pulling loads is the safety target of the machine,
then you are only able to perform this by adding an appropriate brake as a safety
function.

The device does not provide its own safe output to connect an external safety brake.

6.4.6

Maintenance
As the Inverter Enable function has been designed for a defined lifetime (see 6.4.8
Safety standards), no routine checks are necessary to maintain or verify functional
safety. After this lifetime has elapsed a statement about the Inverter Enable function
cannot be made due to the aging of the component. If you want to ensure the func
tionality in terms of safety standards and product liability after this period, you need to
replace the device that includes the safety function.
Subject the device to a complete function test after replacement.
Keep a logbook for tracing the maintenance history of the machine and note the re
placed components (as per EN 62061:2005).
See the "Installation and Maintenance" of this operating instruction chapter for infor
mation about initial start-up and maintenance.

6.4.7

Physical environment
The system is not protected against physical or chemical sources of danger by any
design features. Possible sources of danger include:

toxic,
explosive,
corrosive,
highly reactive, or
inflammable types.

WARNING
LOSS OF THE INVERTER ENABLE FUNCTION

Observe the ambient, storage and transport temperatures of the individual com
ponents indicated in the operating manuals of the components.
Please prevent the formation of moisture during the operation, storage and trans
port of individual components.
Please adhere to the vibration and shock requirements specified in the operating
manuals for the components when operating, storing and transporting system
components.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious injury.

In principle, all plugs and plug-in connectors which include InverterEnable must be
designed according to IP54 or higher. Control cabinet devices like for example an PS-5
do not possess this high protection class and are therefore only intended for use in
environments according to IP54 or higher (e.g. control cabinets).

7.1 Increased ambient temperature

Special Conditions

7.1

Increased ambient temperature


If the ambient temperature exceeds 40C / 104F, then the performance of the entire
system is reduced.
The permissible ambient temperature for the MC-4 servo amplifier and the PS-5 power
supply is 45 C / 113 F. At higher ambient temperatures up to max. 55 C / 131 F
the rated current drops 2 % per C.

7.2

Low air pressure


If the installation altitude exceeds the specified rated installation altitude, the perform
ance of the entire system is reduced.
No power reduction is necessary below an altitude of 1000 m above sea level. Above
an altitude of 1000 m, the maximum rated current should be reduced as shown in the
diagram below. This applies to both the MC-4 servo amplifier and the PS-5 power
supply.

7.3 Long cable

7.3

Long cable
Power reduction of MC-4 servo amplifier with long motor cables
The load on the end stage increases because of increasing cable capacitance when
long motor cables are used. This causes additional heating in the end stage. For cables
> 15 m, the rated current may need to be reduced. With PacDrives MC-4 / 1.5 A ; 3 A;
5 A, for example, the rated current has to be reduced to 75 % for a 40 m long cable
(see table below).
