Type H Drive Controllers

ATV58 TRX Fam10827Retouced.tif

ATV58 TRX TYPE H DRIVE CONTROLLERS
Features
The ATV58 TRX Type H drives are used for controlling three-phase
asynchronous motors ranging from:
• 1 to 350 hp CT (1 to 500 hp VT), 400/460 Vac, three-phase input
• 0.5 to 7.5 hp CT (0.5 to 30 hp VT), 208/230 Vac, single-phase input
• 2 to 40 hp CT (2 to 50 hp VT), 208/230 Vac, three-phase input

ATV58 TRX Type H Product Family

The ATV58 TRX series of adjustable
frequency AC drive controllers is a
Transparent ReadyTM product line
providing extended functionality and an
extended horsepower range for the ATV58
AC drive family. The ATV58 TRX series
includes an analog output, expanded
firmware capabilities, and a horsepower
range up to 500 hp. As a Transparent
Ready product equipped with an Ethernet
communication card, the ATV58 TRX
product line can be configured, controlled,
monitored, and diagnosed over an Ethernet
network with a standard Web browser. No
special software or drivers are needed.

The ATV58 TRX Type H drive controller uses the latest in AC drive
technology. Power modules are used on the entire product family. The
modules contain insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) to produce a
pulse width modulated (PWM) output waveform to the motor. The power
modules minimize part count and improve reliability.
The Type H drive controllers integrate third-generation sensorless flux vector
control for three-phase asynchronous squirrel cage AC motors. This allows
the drive controller to deliver needed torque with excellent dynamic response
over a wide speed range.
ATV58 TRX Type H drive controllers are capable of:
• Producing transient torque of 200% (±10%) of nominal motor torque for
2 seconds
• Producing transient torque of 170% (±10%) of nominal motor torque for
60 seconds
• Producing 160% of rated motor torque at 0.6 Hz with encoder feedback,
or at 1 Hz without tachometer or encoder feedback (open loop)
• Regulating rated motor speed within 1% without tachometer or encoder
feedback, or within ±0.02% with an encoder feedback circuit (option card)
Each Type H drive controller has a selectable switching frequency that can
be adjusted to match the application requirements. The switching frequency
can be programmed to fold back in the event of excessive heat. The drive
controller reverts back to the programmed choice upon reaching the normal
thermal state.
In addition, each 15 hp (CT) to 50 hp (VT) 208/230 Vac Type H controller and
each 25 hp (CT) to 100 hp (VT) 400/460 Vac Type H controller includes a line
reactor integrated into the heatsink plenum. The line reactor improves
reliability and reduces input currents to the drive controller.
Most ATV58 TRX drive controllers are available with an integrated EMC filter.
This filter reduces conducted and radiated emissions, and complies with IEC
product standards IEC 61800-3 and EN 61800-3 for drive controllers.
Compliance with these standards meets the requirements of the European
directive on EMC.
Configuration tools, operator interfaces, I/O extension options, and
communication options are shared throughout the product range.

Altivar® 58 TRX AC Drives
Type H Drive Controllers
Ratings
ATV58 TRX Type H drive controllers may be rated for constant torque (CT), variable torque (VT), and
variable torque low noise (VTLN) applications.
• CT applications usually require 100% of motor-rated torque through the entire speed range, high
transient torque capability, and speed regulation.
• VT applications, such as centrifugal fans and centrifugal pumps, do not require high transient torque
capability. This typically allows a drive to be rated for additional horsepower and additional current as
compared to the constant torque rating.
• VTLN applications, such as centrifugal fans and centrifugal pumps, do not require high transient
torque capability. However, this rating uses a higher switching frequency for quieter motor operation.
As a result, the drive may be rated at the same horsepower and current as the constant torque rating,
particularly at large horsepower sizes.
The 125–500 hp drive controllers are listed in this catalog with ratings typically used for VT applications.
With proper selection, this range of controllers can also be used in CT applications, such as
compressors, conveyors, and extruders, where high performance is not required at low speeds. The
125–500 hp product ratings in this catalog are for applications that require 100% rated torque down to
6 Hz. If the application requires more than 110% transient torque for one minute, select the appropriate
horsepower product. For assistance with selecting the proper AC drive controller for constant torque
applications, consult your local Square D drives specialist.
Application information is also available in product data bulletin SC100, Adjustable Frequency
Controllers Application Guide, available at www.SquareD.com, or the NEMA Standards Publication:
Application Guide For AC Adjustable Speed Drive Systems.

▼ Refer to page 127 for a
complete list of catalog
numbers. An “X” in the
catalog number indicates that
the product does not have an
internal EMC filter. If an
internal EMC filter is required,
delete the “X” from the
catalog number.
■ When these drive controllers
are used with a single-phase
input, a line reactor (3%
minimum) must be used.

Altivar® 58 TRX AC Drives
Type FVC Drive Controllers
ATV58 TYPE FVC DRIVE CONTROLLERS

ATV58Family.tif

Features
The ATV58 Type FVC family of adjustable frequency AC drive controllers are
used for controlling three-phase asynchronous motors ranging from
1 to 75 hp (constant torque), 400/460 Vac, 3-phase input.
The ATV58 TRX operator interfaces, configuration tools, I/O extension
options, and communication options are shared throughout the product
range, except the general purpose option card which is not for use with the
ATV58 Type FVC controllers.

ATV58 Type FVC Product Family
The ATV58 Type FVC series of adjustable
frequency AC drive controllers is a
Transparent ReadyTM product line
providing extended functionality. The
ATV58 Type FVC series includes an analog
output, expanded firmware capabilities,
and a horsepower range up to 75 hp. As a
Transparent Ready product equipped with
an Ethernet communication card, the
ATV58 Type FVC product line can be
configured, controlled, monitored, and
diagnosed over an Ethernet network with a
standard Web browser. No special software
or drivers are needed.

The ATV58 Type FVC drive controller uses the latest in AC drive technology.
Intelligent Power Modules (IPMs) are used on the entire product family. The
IPMs contain insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) to produce a pulse
width modulated (PWM) output waveform to the motor. IPMs minimize part
count and improve reliability.
The ATV58 Type FVC drive controller integrates fourth-generation
sensorless flux vector control for 3-phase asynchronous squirrel cage AC
motors. This allows the drive controller to deliver needed torque with
excellent dynamic response over a wide speed range.
ATV58 Type FVC drive controllers are capable of:
• Producing transient torque of 200% (typical value ±10%) of nominal motor
torque for 2 seconds
• Producing transient torque of 170% (typical value ±10%) of nominal motor
torque for 60 seconds
• Producing 160% of rated motor torque at 0 Hz with encoder feedback
(closed loop) or at 0.5 Hz without tachometer or encoder feedback (open
loop)
• Regulating rated motor speed within 1% without tachometer or encoder
feedback or within ±0.01% with an encoder feedback circuit
Every Type FVC drive controller has selectable switching frequency that can
be adjusted to match the application needs. The switching frequency can be
programmed to fold-back in the event of excessive heat. The drive controller
reverts back to the programmed choice upon reaching the normal thermal
state.
In addition, each 25 hp to 75 hp 400/460 Vac drive controller includes a line
reactor integrated into the heatsink plenum. This line reactor improves
product reliability and reduces input currents to the drive controller.
Every ATV58 Type FVC drive controller is supplied with an integrated EMC
filter. This filter reduces conducted and radiated emissions, and complies
with IEC product standards IEC 61800-3 and EN 61800-3 for drive
controllers. Compliance with these standards meets the requirements of the
European directive on EMC.

• Display and view faults and fault history
When using the PC software, no access restrictions exist unless an access code has been configured.

MAGELIS TERMINAL
The Magelis terminal offers a unique solution for upgrading the user interface to one drive or multiple
drives. The Magelis terminal can be used to connect up to 8 drive controllers via a Modbus RS-485
multi-drop link. The Magelis terminal can be used with ATV28 and ATV58 TRX drive controllers. The
display is 240 x 64 pixel monochrome matrix backlit display.
The Magelis terminal has a factory loaded HMI application.This is easily modified with the XBT-L1003
software package to customize and configure the display. The terminal can be used to monitor, make
adjustments to, and diagnose the drive controller. Drive status, operating parameters, and I/O status can
be viewed.
The terminal requires a 24 Vdc power supply. A cable, (XBTZ908) is included for connection to a
TSXSCA62 tap. The ATV58 TRX drive can be connected to the tap with the RS-485 Connection Kit

I/O EXTENSION CARDS
IO_cards.tif

Overview of I/O Extension Cards

I/O Extension Cards

The ATV58 TRX controller can be specially adapted for certain applications by installing an I/O
extension card. One I/O extension card can be mounted into the ATV58 TRX drive controller. Space is
already provided in the controller for the card; no retrofitting or additional panel space is required. Three
models are available:
• I/O Extension Card with Analog Input (VW3A58201U).
• I/O Extension Card with Encoder Inputs (VW3A58202U).
• Pump Switching Option Card (VW3A58210U).
If these I/O extension cards do not meet your needs, Schneider Electric can design and supply
customer-specific I/O extension cards, incorporating both hardware functions (I/O) and software
functions.
A 115 Vac logic input module (VW3A58275U) is available for applications requiring 115 Vac control
circuits.
The following sections describe the I/O options in greater detail.

Pump Switching Option Card (VW3A58210U)
The pump switching option card can control a complete pumping installation
using a single ATV58 TRX drive controller. It provides:
• Constant pressure in the system whatever the flow rate
• A simple method for installing and diagnosing the installation using the
ATV58 TRX drive controller
The pump switching option card can operate up to four fixed speed pumps
and one variable speed pump (the variable speed pump cannot provide the
full flow range required on its own). A PI regulator is used for drive control and
a pressure sensor is required to provide system feedback.
To prevent uneven wear of the pumps, the card allows pump switching
according to operating time. The variable speed pump can be included in the
swapping procedure.

The logic inputs indicate the state of the pumps.
• If LI = 1, the pump is ready to start and used in the automatic sequencing.
• If LI = 0, the pump is not ready and will not be used in the automatic
sequencing.
Internal elapsed timers are used to keep track of the accumulated operating
time of each pump.

Dynamic Braking Resistor Kits
DYNAMIC BRAKING RESISTOR KITS
The dynamic braking resistor kit allows the ATV58 TRX drive controllers to function in quadrants 2 and
4 of the four quadrant speed/torque curve. In these quadrants of motor operation, the motor is
essentially a generator through which energy is transferred from the motor load back to the drive
controller. This results in elevated DC bus voltage to the drive controller which may cause it to shutdown
to protect itself. Dynamic braking resistor kits are commonly used to dissipate the excess energy
generated by the motor operating in this mode. The flow of current to the braking resistor is controlled
by the dynamic braking transistor (see the block diagrams on page 92–94).
The following table shows the minimum ohmic value of the resistor that can be used with the
ATV58 TRX drive controllers. Using lower than recommended values will cause excessive current flow,
exceeding the rating of the dynamic braking transistor.

Altivar® 58 TRX AC Drives
Dynamic Braking Resistor Kits
Calculating Resistor Size
The standard dynamic braking (DB) resistor assemblies are suitable for a wide variety of drive system
stopping applications. However, when the driven machinery may present an overhauling load or large
inertia to the drive system, the suitability of the DB resistor assembly should be checked.
The suitability of a DB resistor assembly is determined by analyzing the mechanical system of the driven
machinery. From the analysis, the following key parameters are computed:
• The peak braking power required during stopping or speed changes (Pi). The value of Pi determines
the maximum allowable ohmic value of the DB resistor.
• The amount of power that must be absorbed (Pd) for a given time (td) by the DB resistors during
stopping or speed changes of the drive. The value of Pd and td determine the required time-current
characteristic of the DB resistor.
• The calculation of dynamic braking power requires Vdb.
• Vdb = 850 V for 460 V drives
Vdb = 375 V for 230 V drives
• The average power that must be dissipated by the DB resistor during an entire cycle of the machine
(Pa). The value of Pa determines the required continuous current rating of the DB resistor.
The following example illustrates the process:
Given
The application consists of a 5 hp, 460 Vac, 1740 rpm motor (Nbase = base speed) with a rotor
inertia of 0.28 lb-ft2. The motor is being controlled by an ATV58HU72N4 operating in the constant
torque mode. The motor is driving a machine with an inertia 10 times that of the motor with no
interposing gear box. The machine resistive (friction) torque is one-tenth of the rated motor torque
at full speed. The requirement is to stop in 5 seconds from rated speed at a rate of 2 cycles/minute.
Mechanical System Parameters:
Rated motor torque: Tn = (hp x 5250)/Nbase = (5 x 5250)/1740 = 15.1 lb-ft
Machine cycle time: tc = (60 seconds)/(two operations per minute) = 30 seconds
Machine speed change during deceleration: Nd = 1740 rpm - 0 rpm = 1740 rpm
Machine deceleration time: td = 5 seconds
Mechanical system resistive (friction) torque: Tr = (15.1 lb-ft)/10 = 1.51 lb-ft
Mechanical system overhauling torque: To = 0.00 lb-ft
Mechanical system combined inertia: Jc = 0.28 lb-ft2 + (10) x 0.28 lb-ft2 = 3.08 lb-ft2
Mechanical system inertial torque for a 5 second deceleration rate (as set by controller
deceleration ramp):
Tj = Jc x (Nd)/(308 x (td)) = 3.08 x 1740/(308 x 5) = 3.48 lb-ft
Required braking torque from motor: Tb = Tj + To - Tr = 3.48 + 0.00 - 1.51 = 1.97 lb-ft
NOTE: The required braking torque must not exceed the motor’s ability to produce torque. For
inertial loads, including those depicted in the above examples, the required braking torque must
not exceed the torque producing ability of the dynamic braking unit with the recommended braking
resistor (approximately 1.5 times the motor rated torque for constant torque applications).
For machines that can continuously overhaul the motor, the value of overhauling torque (To) minus
the resistive torque (Tr) must not exceed the motor continuous torque rating at any speed.

Altivar® 58 TRX AC Drives
Dynamic Braking Resistor Kits
DB resistor requirements:
Peak braking power required to develop braking torque (Tb) when decelerating from a given speed
Pi = Tb x Nbase/(7.04) = (1.97 x 1740)/(7.04) = 487 W
The braking power that must be absorbed for a time (td) during stopping or speed changing
operation: Pd = 0.5 x Pi = 0.5 x 487 = 243 W for a period of td seconds
The average braking power that must be dissipated during a machine cycle:
Pa = Pd x td/tc = 243 x 5/30 = 40.5 W
Capability of VW3A66711 DB resistor assembly for ATV58U72N4 controller:
Peak braking power that can be developed with VW3A66711 DB resistor assembly with controller
configured for 460 Vac input line operation: Pi = (Vdb)2/Rdb = (850 V)2/120 Ω = 6020 W
The braking power that can be absorbed for td (based on DB resistor hot state current-time
characteristic curve shown on page 37):
Pd = Rdb x ((Multiple of Ir at td) x Ir)2 = 120Ω x (3.5 x 1.0)2 = 1470 W
Since Rdb limits the peak current that can be drawn from the drive controller DC bus, the value of
[(Multiple of Ir) x Ir] must be limited to no greater than (√ pi/Rdb).
The average braking power that can be dissipated continuously:
Pa = Rdb x (Ir)2 = 120 Ω x (1)2 = 120 W
For this example, the VW3A66711 DB resistor assembly will work as intended for the application.

EMC Kits and RFI Filters
ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY (EMC) KITS
ATV58 TRX drive controllers are marked with the CE European Community mark.
The ATV58 TRX drive controller is considered to be a component. It is neither a machine nor a piece of
equipment ready for use in accordance with the European Community directives (machinery directive
or electromagnetic compatibility directive). It is the user’s responsibility to ensure that the machine
meets these standards.
Metal EMC plate kits are available for ATV58 TRX drive controllers to assist in meeting the European
Community EMC directives. The plate is used for landing the shield of the shielded cable. These kits are
for integrators and end-users who are including the drive controller as part of a machine to be exported
to Europe requiring compliance to these directives. When installed as directed in Instruction Bulletin
30072-450-04 (shipped with the kit), the requirements of EMC Directive Level A will be met. To achieve
Level B compliance, install an external RFI filter (see the following sections). See page 125 for EMC kit
dimensions.

INTERNAL RFI FILTERS
The ATV58 TRX drive controller can be supplied with internal radio interference suppression input filters
to comply with the EMC “products” standards IEC 61800-3 and EN 61800-3 concerning variable speed
controllers. Compliance with these standards meets the requirements of the European directive on
EMC.
The following ATV58 TRX controllers are available without input filters for use in situations where EMC
conformity is not necessary:
• ATV58HU54N4 to ATV58HD79N4 drive controllers are available with or without integrated input
filters. If the catalog number includes an “X”, the drive controller does not have an integrated input
filter.
• ATV58HD16M2X to ATV58HD46M2X drive controllers are not available with integrated input filters.
The following ATV58 TRX drive controllers are always supplied with integrated input filters:
• ATV58•U09M2 to ATV58•D12M2 drive controllers; and
• ATV58•U18N4 to ATV58•U41N4 drive controllers.

EXTERNAL RFI FILTERS
External RFI input filters are available to meet the strictest requirements. These filters are designed to
reduce conducted emissions on the mains supply to below the limits of standards EN 55022 class B or
EN 55011 class A. The motor cable must be longer than 5 m (16 feet) for ATV58•U09M2 to
ATV58•D12M2 and ATV58•U18N4 to ATV58•D23N4 controllers, or 25 m (82 feet) for ATV58HD28N4 to
ATV58HD79N4 controllers.
External RFI filters are mounted beneath ATV58 TRX Type H controllers. They have tapped holes for
mounting the drive controller which they support. The filters are mounted to the side of ATV58 TRX Type
E controllers.
Because the filter needs a direct path to ground to work properly, RFI filters can only be used on
wiring systems with a neutral connected directly to ground. Do not use RFI filters on wiring
systems grounded through a high impedance or on systems with an isolated (floating) neutral.

Altivar® 58 TRX AC Drives
Line Reactors and Output Filters
Wiring systems with a neutral connected directly to ground can be classified in two ways, as TT or TN.
1. TT indicates a neutral wire connected directly to ground. The exposed conductive parts of the
product are connected to ground via a separate path.
2. TN indicates a neutral wire connected directly to ground and the exposed conductive parts of the
product are connected to ground via the same path.
Wiring systems grounded through a high impedance or systems with an isolated (floating) neutral can
be referred to as IT. Standard IEC 1800-3, appendix D2.1, states that filters must not be used with IT
mains supplies because they prevent the ground leakage detectors from working reliably. In addition,
the effectiveness of the filters on IT mains supplies depends on the type of impedance between neutral
and earth, and is therefore not recommended.
In the case of a machine which must be installed on an IT supply, the solution is to insert an isolation
transformer and operate the machine locally using a TN or TT supply.

LINE REACTORS
Line reactors can improve protection against line overvoltage surges and reduce input currents to the
drive controller by adding impedance. The additional impedance also reduces the harmonic current
distortion produced by a typical 6-pulse diode rectifier used to convert AC to DC in most drive
controllers. Additional impedance is recommended when the impedance of the power distribution
system is low, such as when the power rating of the system transformer is ten times larger than the
power rating of the drive controller. Single-phase line reactors are available for single-phase input rated
ATV58 TRX Type H drive controllers. See pages 125, 132, and 133 for dimensions and selection.

MOTOR PROTECTING OUTPUT FILTERS
The motor protecting output filters combine inductance, capacitance, and resistance to form a low pass
filter. They should be considered for use in applications where the wiring to the motor(s) is longer than
100 ft. (30.5 m). These filters lower the dv/dt levels to prevent exciting the natural resonant frequency of
the output circuit (drive controller, motor cables, and motor). Motors compliant to NEMA MG1, Part 31
guidelines generally do not require the use of motor protecting filters. See page 133 for dimensions and
selection.

Macro-Configuration Programming
MACRO-CONFIGURATION PROGRAMMING
ATV58 TRX drives have a macro-configuration menu that can be used to pre-program the drive for the
application to simplify configuration. Three options are available:
• Material handling (factory default setting)
• General use
• Variable torque
NOTE: 125–500 hp drive controllers have only the variable torque macro.
Selecting one of the macro-configurations will automatically assign the functions, parameters, and
I/O of the ATV58 TRX controller and option cards (if installed). These configurations can be modified at
any time if necessary. If a configuration is modified, the drive controller will display “customized” in place
of the name of the macro-configuration previously selected.

These frequency limits define the speed range permitted, as shown in the graph to the left. Low speed
is adjustable from 0 to the High Speed setting and is factory set at 0 Hz. High Speed is adjustable from
Low Speed to 500 Hz and is factory set to 50 or 60 Hz, depending on the configuration. The speed
reference input is scaled between Low Speed and High Speed. It is possible to modify the scaling with
the Low Speed Operation parameter.
Low Speed Operation
The Low Speed Operation parameter determines the two limits, High Speed (HSP) and Low Speed
(LSP), that define the speed range permitted by the machine under actual operating conditions. This
function can be used for all applications. The following table describes the three settings that can be
assigned for this function.

the Maximum Frequency setting. Maximum Frequency is adjustable from 40 to 500 Hz and factory set
to 60 Hz or 72 Hz depending on the 50/60 Hz switch configuration.
Acceleration and Deceleration Ramp Times
The ramp times for acceleration and deceleration are determined by the requirements of the application
and the dynamics of the machine. The following table shows the acceleration and deceleration settings.

Reference

Skip Frequency
Diagram

This parameter, also referred to as jump frequency, allows suppression of a critical speed which causes
mechanical resonance phenomena. Prolonged operation of the motor within a frequency band of 5 Hz
is prohibited. The frequency band is adjustable over the speed range. A representation of this is shown
to the left. There are three skip frequency settings.
This function is useful for applications involving light-weight machines, such as bulk product conveyors,
with unbalanced motors. It is also useful for applications involving fans and centrifugal pumps.
Low Speed Run Time Limit
This function, also referred to as a sleep function, is used to stop the motor after running at low speed
for a programmed amount of time, with the run command present and zero speed reference. The length
of run time at low speed is adjustable from 0.1 to 999.9 seconds. The factory setting is 0 s, which
disables this function. The motor will re-start if the frequency reference becomes greater than the low
speed or the run command is cycled.
This function can be used for automatic starting and stopping of pressure-regulated pumps.
IR Compensation
This parameter is used to adjust low-speed torque for optimal performance. Adjust this parameter to
compensate for the resistive voltage drop of the motor stator windings and the conductors connecting
the motor and drive controller.
The factory setting is 100%, with a range of 0 to 150%. (If using special motors such as synchronous
permanent magnet motors, synchronous wound field motors, or synchronous reluctance motors, the
adjustment range can be expanded and is 0 to 800%.)
This parameter is typically used to boost torque performance during low speed operation. If an autotune is performed, adjustment of this parameter is usually not required.
Slip Compensation
This parameter is used to adjust the slip compensation to improve speed regulation.The factory setting
is 100%, with a range of 0 to 150%.
Induction motors develop torque based on the slip, which is the difference between the speed of the
rotating magnetic field in the stator and the speed of the rotor. As the load increases, the slip increases
to produce the necessary torque. In applications where the change in speed due to slip is undesirable,
the slip compensation should be increased. When this parameter is increased, the drive controller will
automatically increase the output frequency. The amount of increase is proportional to the increase of
the load, allowing one setting for the entire speed range.
Gain
This parameter allows adjustment of the drive controller’s response time to sudden changes in the motor
load. The factory setting is 20%, with a range of 0 to 100%.
Decreasing the gain parameter slows the response time of the drive. Increasing the gain parameter
makes the drive respond more quickly. This parameter should be increased when it is not desirable for
motor speed to change as the motor load changes, such as in applications that have fast cycle times or
high torque requirements.
Stability
This parameter allows adjustment of speed overshoot of the drive controller to sudden changes in the
motor load. The factory setting is 20%, with a range of 0 to 100%.
Increasing the stability setting dampens the overshoot. This parameter should be adjusted with the gain
setting to tune the drive response to meet desired performance on applications that have fast cycle times
or high torque requirements.

Altivar® 58 TRX AC Drives
Drive and Motor Configuration Parameters
DC Current Injection
This parameter allows the drive to inject DC current into the stator, creating a stationary magnetic pole
which brakes the rotor at the end of each stop command when the frequency drops below 0.1 Hz.
This feature is useful when a coasting motor is undesirable at the end of the deceleration ramp. The
factory setting is for this feature is “enabled”. The time of DC current injection is adjustable from 0 to 30
seconds, with a factory setting of 0.5 seconds. A continuous setting is also available. If the continuous
setting is selected, the drive controller brakes at the nominal current rating of the drive for 30 seconds,
and then continuously at 50% of rated current. The level of current is adjustable from 10% to 136% of
the drive controller’s constant torque current rating.

DRIVE AND MOTOR CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS
Drive and motor configuration parameters can be viewed and modified only when the access locking
switch on the keypad display is in the total unlock position (see page 24). These parameters can be
modified only when the motor is stopped.
Input Frequency
The controller is equipped with a two-position switch, which is used to select 50 or 60 Hz input frequency.
Nominal Motor Voltage
This parameter is used to enter the nominal motor voltage given on the motor nameplate.
The factory setting is 230 Vac with a range of 200 to 240 Vac for the ATV58•M2 models. For the
ATV58•N4 models, when the input frequency switch is set to 60 Hz, the factory setting is 460 Vac with
a range of 200 to 500 Vac; when the switch is set to 50 Hz, the nominal motor voltage defaults to
400 Vac with a range of 200 to 500 Vac.

Nom-Mot-Freq (catalog).eps

This parameter is used to enter the nominal motor frequency given on the motor nameplate. The factory
setting is 60 Hz when the input frequency switch is set to 60 Hz. When the switch is set to 50 Hz, the
nominal motor frequency defaults to 50 Hz. The range is 10 to 500 Hz. The nominal motor frequency
setting defines the frequency at which nominal motor voltage is applied to the motor. The parameter
cannot be set above the maximum output frequency setting.

Nominal Motor Current
This parameter is used to enter the nominal motor current given on the motor nameplate. The factory
setting is 90% of the drive controller’s constant torque current rating. The range for this parameter is
25% to 136% of the constant torque current rating.
Nominal Motor Speed (rpm)
This parameter is used to enter the nominal motor speed (rpm) given on the motor nameplate. The
factory setting depends on the drive controller setting. The range for this parameter is 0 to 9999. This
value should correspond to the full load RPM (that is, this value should incorporate slip).

Altivar® 58 TRX AC Drives
Drive and Motor Configuration Parameters
Motor Power Factor
This parameter is used to enter the motor power factor given on the motor nameplate. This allows the
drive to provide better current regulation for better motor torque performance. The factory setting
depends on the drive controller rating. The range for this parameter is 0.5 to 1.
Auto Tune
This parameter causes the drive controller to auto tune the connected motor. When Auto Tune is
initiated, the drive controller allows a pulse of current to pass to the connected motor, and measures and
stores motor stator resistance and conductor resistance. This allows the drive to provide better current
regulation for improved motor torque performance. Auto Tune can be initiated from the keypad, by a logic
input assigned to this function, or over a serial communication link.
Automatic Adaptation of the Deceleration Ramp
This function provides automatic adaptation of the deceleration ramp if the programmed ramp setting is
too low for the inertia of the load. This prevents possible faulting of the drive controller due to excessive
braking. All applications, except those requiring precise stopping and those which use braking resistors,
may benefit from this function.
The setting of this function is either Yes or No, with the default setting determined by the macroconfiguration. Automatic adaptation must be cancelled if the machine has position control with stopping
on a ramp and a braking resistor installed. If a braking sequence is configured, this function is
automatically disabled.
Alternate Ramp Switching using Frequency Threshold
Alternate ramp switching allows switching between two sets of acceleration and deceleration ramp
times, with each set being adjusted separately. To switch between the two sets, a frequency threshold
can be defined. (A logic input may also be configured for ramp switching; see page 53.)
Ramp switching is particularly suited for the following:
• Material handling applications that require smooth starting and approach.
• Applications involving fast, steady-state speed correction.
• High-speed lathes with limitation of acceleration and deceleration above certain speeds.

Altivar® 58 TRX AC Drives
Drive and Motor Configuration Parameters
Acceleration and Deceleration Ramp Profile
The ramp profile for acceleration and deceleration is the gradual change of the output frequency from a
speed reference following a linear or predetermined ratio that enables the ramps to be given an S- or Ushaped profile. For the ATV58 TRX controller, the selection of a ramp profile (linear, S, or U) affects both
the acceleration and deceleration ramps.
An S-shaped ramp profile takes up mechanical play, eliminates jolts, and limits “non-following” of speed
during rapid transient operation of high-inertia machines. They are particularly suited to applications
involving materials handling, packaging, and personnel transportation.
U-shaped ramp profiles are ideal for pumping applications (installations with centrifugal pumps and nonreturn valves) because they improve control over valve operation.
The table below provides graphical representations of these two ramp profiles.

Torque Limit
A torque limit can be implemented in three ways on constant torque rated products:
• With the Torque Limit parameter. This parameter is factory set at 200% and can be adjusted from 0
to 200% of the drive controller’s constant torque rating.
• With a logic input and an associated torque limit (see Torque Limit by Logic Input).
• With an Analog Input (see Torque Limit by Analog Input).
Current Limit
This parameter can be used to limit the maximum motor current. This parameter is factory set at 136%,
and can be adjusted from 25% to 136% of the drive controller’s constant-torque output current rating.
Switching Frequency
This function allows configuration of the drive output transistors’ switching frequencies. Refer to the drive
controller rating table for continuous current ratings and associated switching frequency. The table below
shows the available switching frequencies by type (parameter SFt) for each ATV58 TRX model.

ATV58 TRX drive controllers have an automatic feature that is used if the drive controller is intermittently
used at the high end of its temperature rating and HF1 or HF2 switching frequency type is programmed.
In this configuration, if the drive controller thermal state goes above 95%, the switching frequency drops
into the LF: Low Freq. type range of 2 or 4 kHz depending on the drive controller rating (see the table
above). When the thermal state cools to 70%, the switching frequency returns to the set value.

Altivar® 58 TRX AC Drives
Drive and Motor Configuration Parameters
A higher switching frequency will produce a waveform with less harmonic distortion and allow the current
regulator in the drive controller to perform better. Cable lengths greater than 330 feet (100 m) may
require adjusting the switching frequency to lower settings to reduce the transmission line phenomena
that tends to develop in long conductors.
Motor Noise Reduction
When this parameter is enabled, the switching frequency is randomly modulated to avoid audible
resonance from the motor. This parameter is useful in applications where audible motor noise is
undesirable.
Energy Economizer
This function is enabled when the Variable Torque macro-configuration is selected. When this parameter
is enabled, the drive controller optimizes the motor efficiency by automatically adjusting the volts/hertz
ratio. The drive controller accelerates the load with a constant volts/hertz ratio. When the reference
speed is attained, the drive controller begins lowering the voltage applied until the current begins to rise.
It operates at this point until the speed reference is changed. This parameter is useful for saving energy
in all variable torque applications.
Volts/Hertz Adjustment
This function is available in variable torque mode and if the Energy Economizer function is disabled. This
parameter is useful in applications where the user wishes to define the volts/hertz profile manually
instead of having the drive controller perform this function with the Energy Economizer function.
The factory default is set to 20%, with an adjustment range of 0 to 100%.

also be enabled when one drive is used to control multiple motors in parallel. See the Thermal Protection
of Motor below for more information. Enabling this parameter increases the IR compensation adjustment
range from 0 to 800%. This parameter can also be used in testing when a very small motor is used only
to verify proper operation of a drive system wiring and control.

This function provides indirect thermal protection of the motor by continuous
calculation of its theoretical temperature rise. The drive controller will fault if
the calculated temperature rise exceeds 118% of the nominal temperature
rise.
For applications using self-cooled or force-cooled motors, the
microprocessor calculates the theoretical temperature rise of the motor using
the following elements:

• Maximum ambient temperature of 40 °C (104 °F) around the motor.
The following adjustments may be made:
• 0.25 to 1.36 times the nominal current of the drive controller’s constanttorque rating, preset at 0.9.
• Adjust to the nominal current indicated on the motor rating plate.
NOTE: When the drive controller de-energizes, the I2t calculation is saved
and the cooling effect is calculated.
This function may also be used for specialized applications. Thermal
protection may be customized in the fault configuration menu for:
• Applications with force-cooled motors. See the tripping curves at left for
the nominal frequency 50/60 Hz.
• Inhibiting thermal protection in harsh environments where temperatures
exceed 40 °C (104 °F) around the motor or where there is a risk of the
cooling fins becoming clogged. In these applications, provide direct
thermal protection using PTC thermistor probes built into the motor.
• Protection of motor using PTC probes. See “Thermal Protection with PTC
Probes” below.
• In the case of motors connected in parallel on the same controller, each
motor starter must be fitted with a thermal overload relay.
Thermal Protection with PTC Probes
This function provides thermal protection of the motor. The function must be
assigned to analog input AI3 on the I/O Extension Card with Analog Inputs
and the motor must be equipped with PTC probes.
The maximum resistance of the probe circuit at 20 °C (68 °F) is 750 Ω (3 x
250 Ω probes in series). The probe break and probe short-circuit faults are
monitored.
Thermal Protection of ATV58 TRX Controller
This function provides direct thermal protection via a thermistor affixed to the
heatsink, thus ensuring component protection even in the case of faulty
ventilation or excessive ambient temperature. When an overtemperature
condition is sensed, the controller will fault on drive overtemperature.

in this table is compatible with all other functions.
Aside from the particular functions shown in this table, two general priorities exist:
• Stop functions always have priority over Run commands.
• Speed references via logic command always have priority over analog setpoints.
In addition, the choice of functions is limited by:
• The number of controller inputs and outputs to be re-assigned.

Controlled Stop
Diagram

Controlled Stop Functions
The Controlled Stop functions provide alternate stopping methods to the normal drive controller stop.
Normally, the drive controller follows the deceleration ramp on a command to stop. To use the Controlled
Stop function, one logic input (LI) must be assigned. The input is active at state 0 (open) for a Freewheel
Stop or Fast Stop, and is active at state 1 (closed) for DC Injection Braking. These stop requests always
have priority over a normal stop or a Run signal. Three controlled stop methods are available:
• Freewheel Stop/Run Permissive
The drive controller output is turned off and the motor coasts to a stop according to the inertia and
resistive torque of the load. This method is often used in applications where Run Permissive is used
as an electrical safety device.
• Fast Stop
Braking with deceleration ramp time divided by a coefficient adjustable from 1 to 10. This method is
often used for materials handling applications and provides the quickest way to stop without
additional hardware.
• DC Injection Braking
Adjustment of time (0 to 30 s, preset at 0.5 s) and current (10% to 136% of nominal controller current
in a high-torque application, preset at 70%). It is possible to set continuous braking current from 10%
to 100% of nominal motor current (factory setting is 50%). After 30 s, the current automatically goes
to 50%. This method is often used for applications involving fans since it eliminates the need for the
addition of a braking resistor.
Note that after a stop (frequency less than 0.1 Hz), DC Injection Braking may be combined with the
other methods. For this situation, only the current injected after 30 s can be adjusted.
Switching Between Two Motors
This function allows a single drive controller to control two motors with different power ratings, one at a
time. Activating this parameter automatically scales the DC injection current, brake release current, and
nominal motor current based on a programmable scaling factor and the larger motor parameters that
have been configured. This function inhibits motor thermal protection of the second motor. External
contactor control for both motors and external motor thermal protection for the second motor is required
for using this function.
Freewheel Stop Below Selectable Frequency
This parameter allows the drive controller to freewheel stop below a programmable frequency. After a
stop command is received and the drive has followed the deceleration ramp to the programmed
frequency, the drive controller output is turned off and the motor coasts to a stop according to the inertia
and resistive torque of the load.
Torque Limit by Logic Input (Constant Torque Rated Products)
This function allows a logic input to be assigned a second level of torque limit. The associated torque
level is factory set at 200% and is adjustable from 0-200% of the drive controller constant torque rating.
When the assigned logic input is closed (set to state 1) the maximum torque is limited to the configured
value. This feature can be used in the following type of applications:
• At the end of a material handling cycle when it may be useful to stall the motor as the load meets a
barrier.
• Cut-to-length applications with the material stopped while maintaining some motor torque to hold the
material.

Altivar® 58 TRX AC Drives
Assignment of Logic Inputs (LIx)
Forced Local
This function allows a logic input to be assigned to force local control of the
drive controller. Configuration of this function is recommended when using
serial communication with the drive controller. This input is typically wired into
the Hand and Off positions of a Hand-Off-Auto selector switch when used in
conjunction with serial communication with the drive controller. Assigning this
parameter provides terminal block control when the logic input is closed
(state 1). Initiating this input overrides any commands being received over
the serial communications link and the drive controller responds to the inputs
given at the control terminal block. Parameter data can still be monitored over
the serial communication link.
Fault Reset
This function allows faults to be reset by a logic input assigned to this
function. Two types of reset are available. See page 66 for fault reset types.
External Fault

RefSwitch.eps

This function allows a logic input to be assigned to receive an external
contact closure to stop the drive controller and motor. The drive controller will

is required.

Auto Tune
This parameter causes the drive controller to auto tune the connected motor.
When Auto Tune is initiated, the drive controller pulses the connected motor,
and measures and stores motor stator resistance and conductor resistance.
This allows the drive to provide better current regulation for improved motor
torque performance. Auto Tune can be initiated from the keypad or by a logic
input assigned to this function. If an output contactor is used, it is necessary
to close the contactor before the auto tune function is initiated.

Speed Reference Summing Diagram

The PI Regulation function provides simple regulation of flow rate or pressure
with a setpoint input and a sensor sending a feedback signal to the drive
controller. This function is often used for pumping and fan applications. Note
that the PI Regulation function is not compatible with the Preset Speeds and
Jog functions.
The acceleration (ACC) and deceleration (dEC) ramps default to linear ramp
type even if the ramps had been configured for S ramp or U ramp.
PI regulator can be used with a logic input configured for PI Auto/Manual
mode of operation when the analog option card is used. When the PI
regulator is configured and a logic input is configured for PI Auto/Manual, the
PI regulator function is active in Auto mode and AI3 is used for speed input
in Manual mode.
Logic inputs can be used with the PI regulator to command the drive
controller to run from the analog reference, run at process maximum, or
operate with two other definable preset setpoints. The configurable setpoints
can be used to provide two different setpoints for two different processes, or
they can be used instead of using AI1 for setpoint input. For example,
providing a setpoint via the logic inputs can eliminate the need for a
potentiometer.
Four analog outputs are available to monitor various aspects of the PI
regulator function. See page 63 for more information.

Description

PI setpoint

The setpoint to the PI regulator can be provided from one of three sources:
— via analog input, AI1 (AI2 and AI3 can be set to sum with AI1)
— via preset setpoints defined by logic inputs (see Preset setpoints in this table)
— over a communication network

PI feedback

The feedback to the PI regulator can be provided from AI2 (0–20 mA signal) or AI3 (0–10 Vdc
voltage signal).
When the PI regulator is configured and a logic input is configured for Auto / Manual, AI3 is the
speed input in manual mode. The PI regulator function is active in Auto mode. When the logic
input is open, (set to state 0), Manual mode is active and the PI regulator is active.

Auto / Manual with
manual speed Input

Auto mode is active when the logic input is closed, (set to state 1). In manual mode AI3 is
enabled and the drive controller responds proportionally to the speed reference at AI3.
Logic inputs can also be used to provide programmable setpoints. Two or four preset setpoints
require the use of one or two logic inputs respectively.

PI Inversion

Yes/No

PI inversion permits an inverted, or reverse-acting, response to the PI setpoint signal. If PIC =
No, the motor speed increases when the error is positive. If PIC = Yes, the motor speed
decreases when the error is positive.

PSP can be used to dampen the feedback signal. If PSP is set to zero, the ACC and dEC ramps
are active. If PSP is > 0, the AC2/dE2 ramps are active. Adjustment of AC2/dE2 can be used to
refine the response of the PI loop. The dEC ramp is used on stopping.

PI feedback scaling

1.0–100

PI feedback scaling allows adjustment of the maximum value of the PI feedback signal so that
it corresponds to the maximum value of the PI regulator speed reference.

Assignment of Analog Inputs (AIx)
NOTE: Unlike the
previous assignments,
which may be
assigned to either the
analog or digital I/O
extension cards, the
following assignments
can only be assigned
to the A+,A–,B+,B–
terminals on the digital
I/O extension card.

Encoder Speed Feedback
The Encoder Speed Feedback function can be used to improve the speed regulation based on the
encoder feedback signal. It is intended for use in applications in which the load on the motor is changing
but accurate speed regulation is critical to the process. The speed feedback input to the drive controller
is 24 Vdc. A choice of two different types of encoders can be configured as speed feedback: a NPN
sensor type, or a quadrature type encoder.
The NPN sensor type is for use in applications in which the sensor is detecting teeth on a wheel. The
24 Vdc supply on the option card can be used to power the NPN sensor. The quadrature encoders are
usually mounted to the motor shaft. An external 24 Vdc power supply for the encoder is recommended.
Selection of the encoder is critical for obtaining desired speed regulation.
The NPN sensor type encoders can improve the speed regulation from ± 1% to ± 0.5% of motor rated
speed. The quadrature type encoder can improve the speed regulation to ± 0.02% of rated motor speed
with a 1024 pulse count encoder.
The maximum signal frequency input with this option card is 33 kHz. Higher pulse count encoders
provide greater accuracy. The pulse count must be configured in the drive controller. Use the following
to assist in selecting an encoder.
1. Determine the maximum allowable pulse count (pulses per revolution, line count, encoder
resolution) with the following formula.
33,000 (max. signal frequency)X60 (seconds/minute)
Max. allowable pulse count = ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Motor RPM @ drive controller maximum frequency
2. When selecting an incremental encoder: use an encoder with a pulse count closest to, but not
greater than, the result of the calculation in step 1. This will result in the highest precision.
3. When selecting a NPN sensor, choose a device that will limit the pulse count to the value determined
in step 1. Mechanical play in the toothed wheel or other device will degrade the resulting precision.
4. The maximum pulse frequency of the sensor must not be exceeded. Generally, it is this parameter
that limits precision. As an example, the pulse count of a sensor with a maximum frequency of
2000 Hz on a motor with a top speed of 1800 RPM is:
2000 (max. signal frequency)X60 (seconds/minute)
66 Pulses per revolution = ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------1800 (Motor RPM @ drive controller maximum frequency)
Example
• Motor nominal RPM =1800@ 60 Hz.
• Drive controller maximum frequency = 63 Hz.
• Motor nominal RPM @ 63 Hz = 1800 x (63/60) = 1890
• Maximum pulse count = 33,000 x 60 / 1890 = 1047
• Any pulse count of 1047 or less will work. The higher the pulse count, the higher the feedback
resolution. The nearest standard encoder pulse count less than the above calculation is 1024.
Examples of the speed feedback function are shown below.

Assignment of Analog Inputs (AIx) With Analog I/O Extension Card
Incremental Speed Reference
This function assigns encoder inputs used for the Encoder Speed Function to the “summing input”
function. It is useful for the following applications requiring speed synchronization of several motors.

ASSIGNMENT OF ANALOG INPUTS (AIx) WITH ANALOG I/O EXTENSION CARD
The following is a description of the possible assignments of the Analog Inputs (AIx) when the optional
Analog I/O Extension Card is added to the ATV58 TRX drive controller.
Tachometer Speed Feedback
The Tachogenerator Speed Feedback function can be used to improve the speed regulation based on
the tachometer feedback signal. It is intended for use in applications in which the load on the motor is
changing but accurate speed regulation is critical to the process. The tachometer can improve the speed
regulation from ±1% to ±0.1% of motor rated speed.
The voltage of the tachogenerator at maximum speed must be between 5 and 9 volts. An accurate
setting for adjusting this value can be found in the Adjust menu. If necessary, an external divider bridge
may be used to set this value (as shown to the left).
As an example of setting the value, assume a motor is turning at 1500 rpm at 50 Hz, the tachogenerator
is 0.06 V/rpm, and the maximum speed is set at 75 Hz (2250 rpm). Then:
• The maximum voltage is 0.06 x 2250 = 135 Vdc.
• The recommended current for the tachogenerator is 10 mA, so
R1 + R2 = 135/0.01 = 13.5 kΩ.
• The average voltage on the input is 7 V, thus R1 = 7/0.01 = 700 Ω or
680 Ω (nearest standard value).
• R2 = 13.5 – R1 = 13.5 – 0.7 = 12.8 or 12 kΩ (nearest standard value).
• Exact voltage on AI3 = 135 x R1/(R1 + R2) = 135 x 0.68/12.68 = 7.24 V.
Use resistors with sufficient power (2 W minimum). Exact scaling of speed feedback is to be performed
by programming at the time of installation.

ASSIGNMENT OF LOGIC OUTPUTS (R2 OR LOx)
The following is a description of the possible assignments of the Logic Outputs (R2 or LOx) on the
ATV58 TRX drive controller and the optional I/O Extension Cards.
Drive Running
The logic output is high (state 1, 24 Vdc nominal) if the motor is drawing current, or if a run command is
generated with a zero speed reference.
Output Contactor Control
The Output Contactor Control function enables the ATV58 TRX drive controller to control a contactor
located between the drive and the motor. The request to close the contactor is made when the Run
signal is given. The request to open the contactor is made when the Run signal is removed and the
deceleration ramp is completed.
The function is for use in applications where an air gap opening in the motor circuit is required. The
connection method illustrated in the diagram below is required.
This function may also be used:
• For applications involving machines where the operation requires power to the motor to be removed
when there is a stop to prevent any possibility of an untimely restart (for example, a materials
handling carousel where items are put down and then picked up manually).

Fault Management Parameters
FAULT MANAGEMENT PARAMETERS
The ATV58 TRX drive is equipped with features that are designed to protect the drive controller and
motor, and to provide process related information. Understanding the fault management capabilities of
the drive controller and determining the proper configuration for the application can enhance the total
system installation and performance over the life of the equipment. The fault messages provided by the
drive controller can be divided into three categories:
• Protective faults are displayed when the drive detects conditions that may damage the drive controller
and/or motor. The drive controller shuts down to prevent further damage from occurring.
• Drive faults are displayed when a problem in the drive needs to be diagnosed.
• Process faults are displayed when a process signal used by the drive controller is interrupted.

Fault Relay Diagram

Resetting a Fault
The drive controller can be reset after a fault by one of three methods:
• Turning power to the drive controller off, wait for the LEDs to go off, and apply power.
• Using the reset button on the keypad, if programmed for local control, or by a logic input assigned to
Fault Reset.
• By the Automatic Restart function if configured.
Automatic Restart
This function permits automatic restarting after the drive controller detects a fault, provided that the other
operating functions are correct, a Run command is present, and the fault has disappeared. The factory
setting for this function is NO. The number of restart attempts and the delay between these attempts is
selectable.
When the Auto restart is selected, the fault relay remains energized so that the drive controller does not
signal a fault from a condition from which it may be able to restart. If the fault has disappeared, the drive
controller will attempt to restart the motor after the delay time configured. The auto restart delay time is
factory set at 30 seconds and has an adjustable range of 0.1 to 999.9 seconds. If the drive controller
remains faulted after attempting the configured number of restarts, the fault relay will then deenergize.
The drive controller must be reset by cycling power after the cause of the fault has been eliminated. The
number of restart attempts is factory set at 5 and has an adjustable range of 0 to 255.
65

09/2003

Altivar® 58 TRX AC Drives
Fault Management Parameters
The faults which allow automatic restarting are:
• Input mains overvoltage

• Drive controller thermal overload

• 4-20 mA speed reference loss

• DC bus overvoltage

• External fault

• Motor phase loss

• Serial link fault
• Motor thermal overload if thermal state is below 100%
• Mains voltage too low (for this fault, the function is always active, even if it has not been configured).
In the case of this fault, the controller fault relay remains energized if the function is configured, and
the speed reference and the operating direction must be maintained.
Automatic restart is often used in applications where machines or installations are operating
continuously or without supervision and which, when restarted, pose no hazard to either equipment or
personnel (for example, pumps, fans, etc.).
Fault Reset Type
This function allows faults to be reset by logic input (LIx), which can be re-assigned to this function. The
starting conditions after reset are the same as those at a normal power-up.
Two types of reset are available: Type 1 and Type 2. In Type 1, which is often used for applications where
drive controllers are difficult to access (for example, on moving parts in materials handling systems), the
following faults may be reset:
• Overvoltage

• Overspeed

• External fault

• Drive controller overheating

• Motor phase loss

• DC bus overvoltage

• Loss of 4-20 mA speed reference

• Serial link fault

• Motor overload if thermal state is below 100%
The mains undervoltage and mains phase loss faults will reset automatically when the supply returns to
normal.
In Type 2, all faults are inhibited, including thermal protection functions except motor short-circuit. This
type is used in applications involving drive controllers where restart could be vital, such as furnace
conveyors, smoke extraction fans, and machines with hardening products which need to be removed.
Output Phase Loss
The output phase loss detection can be disabled. Factory setting is enabled.
Input Phase Loss
The input phase loss detection can be disabled on three phase devices. Factory setting is enabled.
Loss of Follower
The drive controller can be configured to detect a loss of a 4–20 mA speed reference signal. If so
configured, the following responses to the loss of signal can be selected:
• Immediate fault, stop the motor
• Stop the motor without fault and restart on return of the reference signal
• Stop the motor, deenergize the fault relay, and display loss of 4–20 mA speed reference on the
keypad display
• Continue to run at last the speed without fault and follow the speed reference upon return of the signal
• Continue to run, but at a configured preset speed. The adjustable range for the preset speed is from
0 to the high speed setting.

Fault Management Parameters
Automatic Catch of a Spinning Load (Catch-on-the-fly)
This function, also termed a “flying start,” is active by default (although it is automatically disabled if the
Brake Sequence function is configured). It allows the motor to be restarted without a speed surge after
one of these events:
• Mains power break or simple switch off.
• Fault reset or automatic restart.
• Freewheel stop or DC injection stop with logic input.
• Momentary loss of power downstream of drive controller.
On restart, the controller searches for the effective speed of the motor in order to restart on a ramp from
this speed and return to the reference speed. The speed search time can reach 1 s depending on the
initial difference.
This function is often used for applications where the motor speed of a machine does not drop rapidly
after a mains power break (machines with high inertia) as well as fans and pumps driven by residual flux.
Controlled Stop on Power Loss
This function can be used to determine how the drive controller will react to a loss of power. Three
configurations are possible:
• Disabled.
The drive controller immediately faults in response to an input phase loss. This is the factory setting.
• Follow the programmed deceleration ramp until motor stops or undervoltage fault appears.
Use this configuration if a consistent deceleration ramp is more important than maximizing power
loss ride through.
• Maintain DC bus voltage.
With this configuration, DC bus voltage is maintained as long as possible. The ATV58 TRX drive is
designed to ride through power sags and to provide degraded operation down to 60% of nominal line
voltage for 500 ms. Longer ride through is possible if there is sufficient kinetic energy generated by
the connected motor load inertia. An undervoltage fault appears after the voltage drops below 60%
of nominal line voltage. This configuration should be used to maximize the ride through time of the
drive controller and to minimize nuisance tripping.

Motor Fluxing Options
Motor fluxing can improve acceleration response time by establishing magnetic flux in the motor before
it receives a run command. There are three motor fluxing options:
• Continuous mode: flux is established and maintained in the motor as long as power is applied to the
drive controller.
• Motor fluxing by logic input: A logic input is assigned to the motor fluxing function. When the assigned
logic input goes high, flux builds in the motor.
• Normal operation: if the logic input is not active when a run command is given or if no logic input has
been assigned to the function, flux builds in the motor when it starts up. This is the factory setting.
The flux current is equal to 1.5 times configured nominal motor current until full flux is established; it is
then adjusted to the motor no-load current.
Motor fluxing options can be selected in open or closed loop control modes.
Control Mode
This function is used to select open loop or closed loop operation.

PID Regulator
This function is used to regulate a process with a reference and a feedback given by a sensor. A speed
input gives an initial (or predictive) setpoint for start-up. In PID regulator mode the ramps are linear, even
if they are configured differently. PID Regulator mode is active if an AI input is assigned to PID Feedback.

ATV58 TYPE FVC ANALOG INPUTS
Analog Torque Limit:
This function is for load compensation, torque or traction correction applications. It is available only with
an I/O extension card with analog input AI3. The signal applied at AI3 operates in a linear fashion on the
internal torque limit (parameter TLI in the Drive menu):
If AI3 = 0 V: limit TLI x 0 = 0; If AI3 = 10 V: limit TLI.
Encoder Input Application Function with I/O Extension Card And Encoder Input:
This function provides speed reference summing. The setpoint from the encoder input is summed with
AI1 (see documentation supplied with the card). Applications include:
• Synchronization of the speed of a number of drive controllers. Parameter PLS on the DRIVE menu
is used to adjust the speed ratio of one motor in relation to that of another.
• Setpoint via encoder.
Encoder Input Application Function with Control Card:
This function provides closed loop flux vector control with sensor (inputs A, A-, B, B-). This relates to the
encoder connected to the control card. It is used for fine speed adjustments, irrespective of the state of
the load, and for control optimization (flux vector control mode in closed loop: Ctr = closed loop, DRIVE
menu).
Consistency between the motor frequency and the speed feedback is monitored in the drive controller
fault management system. If there is no encoder signal (FVC mode) or if the motor frequency and speed
feedback are not consistent, the drive controller gives a speed feedback fault and locks with code SPF.
During operation, if the difference between the motor frequency and the speed feedback is greater than
5 Hz, the drive controller gives a speed feedback fault and locks with code SPF. If the speed feedback
is greater than 1.2 x maximum frequency, the drive controller gives an overspeed fault with code SOF.

Type FVC Analog and Logic Outputs
ATV58 TYPE FVC ANALOG OUTPUTS
Signed Ramp (Code ORS)
When configured for signed ramp, the analog output provides a signal proportional to the drive
controller’s internal frequency ramp. This output is scaled to indicate rotation direction. AOL
corresponds to the maximum frequency (parameter tFr) in the reverse direction. AOH corresponds to
the maximum frequency (parameter tFr) in the forward direction. (AOH + AOL) divided by 2 corresponds
to zero frequency.
PID Setpoint (Code OPS)
The image of the PID regulator setpoint. AOL corresponds to the minimum setpoint. AOH corresponds
to the maximum setpoint.
PID Feedback (Code OPF)
The image of the PID regulator feedback. AOL corresponds to the minimum feedback. AOH
corresponds to the maximum feedback.
PID Error (Code OPE)
The image of the PID regulator error as a percentage of the sensor range (maximum feedback minus
minimum feedback). AOL correspond to -5%. AOH corresponds to +5%. (AOH plus AOL) divided by 2
corresponds to zero.
PID Integral (Code OPI)
The image of the PID regulator error integral. AOL corresponds to LSP. AOH corresponds to HSP.

ATV58 TYPE FVC LOGIC OUTPUTS
The programmable relay, R2, on the drive controller or the programmable logic output, LO, on an I/O
extension card can be configured for the following additional functions:
PID Error (Code PEE)
Can be assigned to R2 or LO. The logic output is active (state 1) or the relay is energized if the PID
regulator output error is greater than the threshold set by parameter PEr.
PID Feedback Alarm (Code PFA)
Can be assigned to R2 or LO. The logic output is active (state 1) if the PID feedback moves outside the
range set by parameters PAH and PAL.

Bit0 = 0: No action
Bit0 = 1: Recall factory settings command. This bit
automatically resets to 0 after accepting the request; but if
CMI is a periodic variable, the PLC program must write it to
0 after the first request has been accepted. [2]
Bit1 = 0: No action
Bit1 = 1: Save configuration/adjustments in EEPROM if
voltage is sufficient (no USF fault present). This bit
automatically resets to 0 after accepting the request; but if
CMI is a periodic variable, the PLC program must write it to
0 after the first request has been accepted. [2]
Bit2 = 0: No action
Bit2 = 1: Recall configuration/adjustments in EEPROM. This
bit automatically resets to 0 after accepting the request; but
if CMI is a periodic variable, the PLC program must write it to
0 after the first request has been accepted. This bit is inactive
if the motor is running.

PISP

0.001

PI setpoint in serial link mode. [1]

0 to 10,000

[1]
[2]

Signed in two’s complement.
If bit 9 of CMI is 0, the resolution of LFR is 0.1 Hz (0–5000 = 0.0 to 500.0 Hz).
If bit 9 is 1, the resolution of LFR becomes approximately 0.015 Hz per count
(0–32767 = 0 to 500 Hz).
ATV58 Type FVC only.

PISP is used only if an analog input is assigned to PIF: PID feedback. When using PISP, LFR (frequency
reference) and LFRD (speed reference) have no effect on the motor speed. The analog input for PID feedback
remains active in the serial link mode.

Parameter is reinitialized at the end of time-out unless bit 14 (NTO) of CMI (W402 or 16#5FE7/3) is set to 1.
The EEPROM life limit is 100,000 write operations.

The block diagram above provides an overview of the construction of the ATV58 TRX drive controller
power section. The drive controllers in the horsepower ranges referenced above are built in five frame
sizes. (See the dimensional drawings on pages 120 to 122.) The various frame sizes share in common
many components and technological advances:
• In frame size 1, the diode bridge section and the insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) output
section are integrated into one module. The dynamic braking module is purchased and mounted
separately. All other frame sizes have the dynamic brake switching module internal to the product.
• In frame sizes 2 and 3, the diode bridge section, the IGBT output section, and the dynamic braking
components are integrated into one module.
• In frame sizes 4 and 5, the diode bridge section is one module. The IGBT output section is integrated
into a power module (PM). The dynamic braking transistor is incorporated into the diode bridge
section or the power module, depending on the rating.
• The EMC filter is optional on frame sizes 3, 4, and 5.
Integration reduces the part count and the wiring and connection points required to connect
components. The output section has fault detection and short circuit protection of the output transistors
integrated into the module. The use of these modules eliminates individual gate drive cards and
associated wiring as used by most other manufacturers in this horsepower range. These features
combine to make the Altivar 58 TRX drive fit in a smaller package while improving the reliability of the
product.

The block diagram above provides an overview of the construction of the ATV58 TRX drive controller
power section. The drive controllers in the horsepower ranges referenced above are built in frame sizes
6 and 7. (See the dimensional drawings on pages 120 to 122.) These two frame sizes share many
components and technological advances:
• The option of having an input EMC filter mounted integrally in the product.
• An internally-mounted 3-phase line reactor.
• The diode bridge section consists of three modules each containing a diode and a thyristor. This
advanced diode/thyristor module is ASIC-controlled to gate on the thyristor to charge the DC bus
when power is initially applied to the unit. Once the DC bus is charged, the thyristor is gated on full
time and acts as a diode. This technological advance allows for elimination of the electromechanical
precharge relay. This improves product reliability and allows for reduced package size.
• The dynamic braking components are incorporated into one module, internally mounted in the
product.
• The output section consists of six insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) integrated into the power
module (PM). Frame size 6 integrates the six IGBTs into one power module, while frame size 7
contains three power modules with two integrated IGBTs each.
• Three current sensors are used on the output to monitor the current supplied to the motor. The
feedback from these sensors is used by the motor control algorithms.
Integration reduces the part count and the wiring and connection points required to connect
components. The power modules provide further integration by combining fault detection and short
circuit protection of the output transistors. The use of power modules also eliminates individual gate
drive cards and associated wiring used by most other manufacturers in this horsepower range. The drive
also incorporates a laminated bus network of power conductors for line, DC bus, and motor power with
connections made with screws instead of traditional cable connectors. These factors combine to make
the product fit in a smaller package while improving the reliability of the product.

The block diagram above provides an overview of the construction of the ATV58 TRX drive controller
power section. The horsepower ranges of the drives referenced above are built in three frame sizes, 8,
9, and 10. (See the dimensional drawings on pages 120 to 122.) Common frame sizes share many
components:
• The diode bridge section in these frame sizes consists of three modules (frame sizes 8 and 9) or six
modules (frame size 10). Each module contains a pair of diodes.
• There is no dynamic braking transistor built into these frame sizes.
• The output section consists of insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) integrated into power
modules. These frame sizes contain modules which have two integrated IGBTs each.
• Three current sensors are used on the output to monitor the current supplied to the motor. The motor
control algorithms use the feedback from these sensors.
Integration reduces the part count which allows for smaller package size while increasing the reliability
of the product. The power modules provide integration by combining fault detection and over current
protection with the transistor. One single gate driver card is used instead of six individual gate driver
cards used by most other manufacturers in this horsepower range. These factors combine to make the
product fit in a smaller package and improve the reliability of the product.

Performance Information (Constant Torque Rated Products)
PERFORMANCE INFORMATION (CONSTANT TORQUE RATED PRODUCTS)
Schneider Electric/Square D has made continuous improvements in the algorithms used by the
ATV58 TRX drives to regulate the torque and speed of AC motors. As a result, ATV58 TRX drive
controllers deliver superior speed regulation and torque performance allowing them to be applied in
many applications that formerly used DC drives and DC motors.
Using the ATV58 TRX drive controller and an AC motor in place of a DC drive and DC motor can reduce
the installed cost, reduce maintenance costs, and provide improved performance:
• Mounting space is reduced because AC motors have smaller frame sizes and weigh less than DC
motors of equal horsepower.
• Unlike DC motors, AC motors are manufactured in standard frame sizes, providing greater flexibility
in motor replacement.
• AC motors are available in TENV (totally enclosed, non-ventilated) frames making them more
suitable for harsh environments.
• AC motors can provide a higher speed range which may eliminate the need for external gearing.
• AC motors have lower rotor inertia allowing a faster response when used with the ATV58 TRX drive
controller.
• AC motors have lower maintenance costs because they do not have brushes or commutators like DC
motors.
• The ATV58 TRX drive controller operating in open loop mode may offer sufficient performance
eliminating the installation cost and maintenance of a tachometer or encoder.
• Component cost of the ATV58 TRX drive and AC motor is less than a comparable DC drive and DC
motor.
In open loop mode, the ATV58 TRX drive controller uses a sensorless vector control algorithm to control
the motor. Option cards are also available that provide connections for tachometer or quadrature
encoder feedback for closed loop operation.
In open loop mode, the ATV58 TRX vector control algorithm provides:
• An improved level of transient torque.
• Improved speed regulation with static and dynamic loading.
• More than rated torque at low speed.
The vector control algorithm separates motor current into two components: the magnetizing current
needed to establish the magnetic field, or flux, in the motor and the current that is used to produce motor
torque. This allows the flux and the torque to be controlled independently. The vector control algorithm
uses DC bus voltage measurements, motor current feedback, and motor model information as inputs to
control the applied voltage, phase rotation of the applied voltage, and frequency supplied to the motor.
This allows the ATV58 TRX drive to maintain constant flux in the motor, compensate for motor slip, and
provide motor torque control.

Speed Regulation (Constant Torque Rated Products)
SPEED REGULATION (CONSTANT TORQUE RATED PRODUCTS)
Figures 1 and 2 are speed/torque plots of an ATV58 TRX Type H controller operating in constant torque
mode with an off-the-shelf AC motor operating in open loop mode (without an encoder or tachometer
feedback from the motor) and in closed loop mode (with a 1024 pulse per revolution encoder feedback
from the motor). To demonstrate the speed regulation capabilities, these plots were generated by
operating the drive from no load at zero speed to full load at various speeds. The autotune feature was
configured. The gain parameter was adjusted to 50% and the stability parameter was adjusted to 50%.
Note the speed regulation capability of the ATV58 TRX drive controller as exhibited by the portion of the
speed torque curve that is nearly perpendicular to the Y-axis.

Figures 3 and 4 are speed/torque plots of an ATV58 TRX Type H drive controller operating in constant
torque mode with an off-the-shelf AC motor operating in open loop mode (without an encoder or
tachometer feedback from the motor) and in closed loop mode (with a 1024 pulse per revolution encoder
feedback from the motor). To demonstrate the torque producing capabilities, these plots were generated
by operating the drive from no load at zero speed to maximum transient torque at various speeds. The
autotune feature was configured. The gain parameter was adjusted to 50% and the stability parameter
was adjusted to 50%. The available overtorque is a function of the motor design category. For typical
NEMA Design B motors, the ATV58 TRX controller can deliver 200% of the nominal motor torque for 2
seconds, and 170% for 60 seconds.
Note the 200% transient torque produced by the ATV58 TRX Type H model, and note the torque
producing capabilities at very low speeds.

Operation in overspeed:
• In overspeed operation, the voltage no longer increases with the frequency, resulting in reduced
induction in the motor which results in loss of torque. Consult the motor manufacturer to ensure that
the motor can operate in overspeed.
• For a special motor, the nominal frequency and the maximum frequency can be adjusted between 10
and 500 Hz using the keypad display, PowerSuite, or Commissioning software.

with fan and filter
mounted on enclosure

• If the enclosure does not provide sufficient free air flow, install an enclosure ventilation fan with
IP54/NEMA 12 filters to exhaust heat outside of the enclosure (see the figure above). The enclosure
fan should have a greater fan flow rate than the drive controller fan flow rate listed in the table below.

• If there is a possibility of condensation, keep the control supply switched on during periods when the
motor is not running, or install thermostatically controlled strip heaters.
Mounting in a Type 12 or IP54 Metal Enclosure
Certain conditions may require Type 12 or IP54 protection, such as dust, corrosive gas, high humidity
with the risk of condensation and dripping water. When mounting in a Type 12 or IP54 enclosure, follow
the installation recommendations given on page 97.
If the enclosure is non-ventilated, use a stirring fan to circulate the air inside the enclosure to prevent
hot spots from forming. With a stirring fan, the maximum temperature inside the enclosure can then be
up to 60 °C (140 °F), although the current must be derated by 2.2% per °C above 50 °C. If condensation
might form within the enclosure, keep the power supply switched on during periods when the motor is
not running, or install thermostatically controlled strip heaters.

Calculating Enclosure Size
The equation for calculating Rth (°C/W), the maximum allowable thermal resistance of the enclosure, is:
Ti – To

Rth = ----------------P

T = Max. internal ambient temp. (°C) around drive controller
i
T

= Max. external temp. (°C) around enclosure

P = Total power dissipated in enclosure (W)

Useful heat exchange surface area, S (in2), of a wall-mounted enclosure generally consists of the sides,
top, and front. The minimum surface area required for a drive controller enclosure is calculated as
follows.
NOTE: Contact enclosure manufacturer for K factors.
K
S = ---------Rth

Rth = Thermal resistance of the enclosure (calculated previously)
K = Thermal resistance per square inch of the enclosure.

Consider the following points when sizing the enclosure:
• Use only metallic enclosures since they have good thermal conduction.
• This procedure does not consider radiant or convected heat load from external sources. Do not install
enclosures where external heat sources (such as direct sunlight) can add to enclosure heat load.
• If additional devices are present inside the enclosure, consider the heat load of the devices in the
calculation.
• The actual useful area for convection cooling of the enclosure will vary depending upon the method
of mounting. The method of mounting must allow for free air movement over all surfaces considered
for convection cooling.
The following example illustrates calculation of the enclosure size for an ATV58HU29N4 (2 HP) drive
controller mounted in a Type 12 enclosure.
• Maximum external temperature: To = 25 °C
• Power dissipated inside enclosure: P = 97 W (from ratings tables; see page 10)
• Maximum internal temperature: Ti = 40 °C
• Thermal resistance per square inch of enclosure: K = 186
• Calculate maximum allowable thermal resistance, Rth:
40 °C – 25 °C
Rth = ------------------------------------ = 0.16 °C/W
97 W
• Calculate minimum useful heat exchange surface area, S:
2
186
S = ----------- = 1162.5 in
0.16

Useful heat exchange surface area (S) of the proposed wall-mounted enclosure:
• Height: 24 in (610 mm)
• Width: 20 in (508 mm)
• Depth: 12 in (305 mm)
front area

top area

side area

S = ( 24 × 20 ) + ( 20 × 12 ) + 2 ( 24 × 12 ) = 1296 in

Since the surface area of the enclosure is greater than the minimum required surface area (1162.5 in2),
the enclosure is sufficiently large for this particular ATV58 TRX model.
Note that if the selected enclosure did not provide the required surface area or did not meet application
needs, then the following would need to be considered:
• Use a larger enclosure.
• Add a passive heat exchanger to the enclosure.
• Add an air conditioning unit to the enclosure.

Wiring Recommendations
WIRING RECOMMENDATIONS
Good wiring practice requires the separation of control circuit wiring from all power wiring. Power wiring
to the motor must have the maximum possible separation from all other power wiring, whether from the
same drive controller or other drive controllers; do not run power and/or control or multiple power
wiring in the same conduit. This separation reduces the possibility of coupling electrical transients
from power circuits into control circuits or from motor power wiring into other power circuits.
Follow the practices below when wiring enclosed ATV58 TRX drive controllers:
• When using metallic conduit, use metal conduit kits; see page 33 for a list of conduit kits.
• Use metallic conduit for all controller wiring.
• Do not run control and power wiring in the same conduit.
• Do not run output wiring from more than one drive in the same conduit.
• Separate metallic conduits carrying power wiring or low-level control wiring by at least 3 in. (76 mm).
• Separate non-metallic conduits or cable trays used to carry power wiring from metallic conduit
carrying low-level control wiring by at least 12 in. (305 mm).
• Whenever power and control wiring cross, the metallic conduits and non-metallic conduits or trays
must cross at right angles.
• Equip all inductive circuits near the drive (relays, contactors, solenoid valves) with noise suppressors
or connect them to a separate circuit.
Recommendations for Wire Sizing
Refer to NEC Article 430 for the sizing of the branch circuit conductors. All branch circuit components
and equipment (such as transformers, feeder cables, disconnect devices, and protective devices) must
be rated for the input current of the ATV58 TRX drive controller or the rated output current, whichever
value is larger. The input current of the controller depends on the impedance of the power
distribution system and the available fault current at the drive input terminals.
Select the input current corresponding to the available short circuit current capability (AIC Rating) or the
line impedance present. If the available fault current capability of the branch circuit is limited by fuses or
circuit breakers (not system impedance), use the available fault current capability on the line side of the
fuses or circuit breakers to select the drive controller input current. The input current values for the
variable torque drive controller ratings are based on nominal NEC rated motor currents. The input
current values for the constant torque drive controller ratings are based on drive controller rated output
currents. The tables on the following pages provide input current information to optimally size branch
circuit conductors.

Output Wiring Precautions
The drive controller is sensitive to the amount of capacitance (either phase-to-phase or phase-toground) present on the output power conductors. If excessive capacitance is present, the drive controller
may trip on overcurrent.
Follow the guidelines below when selecting output cable:
• Cable type: the cable selected must have a low capacitance phase-to-phase and to ground. Do not
use mineral-impregnated cable because it has a very high capacitance. Immersion of cables in water
increases capacitance.
• Cable length: the longer the cable, the greater the capacitance. Cable lengths greater than 100 ft
(30.5 m) may affect controller and/or motor performance. For installations where cable length
capacitances may be a problem, installing a reactor between the drive controller and the motor will
increase inductance and decrease capacitance between cable conductors.
• Proximity to other output cables: because of high frequency switching and increased capacitance,
the drive controller may fault under some conditions.
• Do not use lightning arrestors and/or power factor correction capacitors on the output of the
drive controller.
NOTE: Provide at least 20 in. (500 mm) of cable at the drive controller output (U, V, W).
Grounding
For safe, dependable operation, ground the drive controller according to National Electrical Code and
all local codes. To ground the drive controller:
• Connect a copper wire from the ground terminal on the drive controller (see the terminal locations on
page 18) to the power system ground conductor. Wire size is determined by the drive controller size
and by national and local codes.
• Verify that resistance to ground is one ohm or less. Improper grounding causes intermittent and
unreliable operation.
.
YES

Drive Controller

Ground multiple drive controllers as
shown in the figure to the left. Use one
grounding conductor per device. Do not
loop ground conductors or install them in
series

TS = Transient suppressor

When controlling the power with a line isolation contactor, avoid frequently
opening and closing the line contactor as this could cause premature failure
of the drive controller. Use inputs LI1 to LI4 to start and stop the drive
controller. Limit operations of the line contactor to less than once per minute.
To use an output contactor, use the wiring diagram to the left for guidance
and set relay R2 to the Output Contactor Command function. In the wiring
diagram at left, the shaded portion is to be added to the output of either the
single-phase wiring diagram or the three-phase wiring diagram on page 108.

Altivar® 58 TRX AC Drives
Wiring Recommendations
Recommended Branch Circuit Protection Devices
Branch circuit protection must be installed on the input (line side) of the drive controllers. Input fuses
may be used on 1/2 hp to 500 hp drive controllers; circuit breakers may be used on 1/2 hp to 100 hp
drive controllers.
Fuses
The fuses specified in Tables 1–3 (pages 113–114) are suitable for branch short circuit protection and
provide excellent short circuit protection for the drive. Fuses are recommended for ATV58 TRX Type H
and Type FVC drives when they are wall mounted.
Circuit Breakers
Circuit breakers will also provide branch short circuit protection. Because circuit breakers are typically
slower than fuses, they are not as effective in limiting damage to the controller in the event of an internal
drive short circuit such as shorted bus connections, shorted input rectifier, or failure of the internal solid
state overcurrent protection circuit in the controller. Refer to the ALTIVAR 58 TRX Installation Guide for
Type H Controllers (VVDED397048US) for recommended circuit breakers and application
considerations.
Table 1: Recommended Fuses: 208/230 V Single-Phase Drive Controllers

Abbreviations: CT = constant torque CTLN = constant torque, low noise; VT = variable torque; VTLN = variable torque, low noise.
If an EMC filter to meet level A compliance is desired, delete the X from the catalog number.
These ratings encompass all 400/460 Vac applications with or without an EMC filter. For 460 Vac applications without an EMC filter, these ratings
would be the same as the ratings in the VTLN columns.
These products, without EMC filters, are for 460 Vac applications and can be used at the motor power and output current ratings provided in the
VTLN columns. For 400 Vac applications, or if an EMC filter is required, delete the X from the catalog number and use the motor power and output
current ratings provided in the CT and VT columns. Do not use the VTLN ratings denoted with the ◆ symbol.

[1] The filter selection tables give the maximum length for the shielded cables which connect the motors to the drive controllers for a switching frequency
of 0.5 to 12 kHz. These limits are given for information only as they depend on the interference capacity of the motors and the cables used. For motors
connected in parallel, the total of the lengths must be taken into account.

2.11 Braking (Application-dependent Option)
NOTE: When braking certain types of loads, there is the conversion of kinematic energy into electrical
energy by the motor which is returned to the AC drive. Dynamic braking can be chosen to absorb this
energy and avoid causing the AC drive to inadvertently shut down. The energy is dissipated across a
resistor that is connected to the drive. For constant torque AC drives, the dynamic braking unit must be
capable of stopping 1.5 per unit motor torque from base frequency to 0.5 Hz with sensorless flux vector
control mode.
a. The dynamic brake resistor shall be provided and connect to existing terminals on the AC drive. The
resistor shall mount externally to the AC drive enclosure. A power transistor will be provided in the
AC drive to switch the excess energy to the braking resistor. The braking resistor will be of a size
calculated to stop 6 times motor inertia at 1.5 per unit motor torque.
2.12 HARMONIC ANALYSIS
NOTE: The amount of harmonic distortion at the point of common coupling (PCC) is due to the
distribution system characteristics (impedance of the source) and the power source size relative to the
AC drive load. The harmonic current magnitude and voltage distortion values can be predicted through
computer modeling. If the resulting calculations determine that the harmonic distortion will be above the
IEEE-519 specifications of 5%, isolation transformers or line reactors can be supplied to lower the
harmonic levels. The isolation transformers or line reactors are mounted at the AC drive input to reduce
the current harmonics that are fed back into the supply.
a. A harmonic analysis shall be performed and priced as a separate line item by the AC drive
manufacturer based upon system documentation consisting of but not limited to one-line diagrams
and specific distribution transformer information consisting of X/R,%Z, and kVA data. The data shall
consist of but not be limited to total harmonic voltage distortion and total rms current.
b. The maximum allowable input line unbalance shall be [5% for 460 V input line short circuit capacity
of 15,000 amps] [2.5% for 460 V input line short circuit capacity of 30,000 amps] [.5% for 460 V input
line short circuit capacity of 65,000 amps]. If the resulting voltage harmonic distortion exceeds 5%,
three phase, line reactor(s) shall be priced as a separate line item.
c. The line reactor(s) if required shall be provided in stand-alone Type 1 enclosures for mounting
separately from the AC drive.

Class 8839 58M Enclosed AC Drives
Three Phase Line Reactors
The Class 8839 58M Enclosed AC Drives are
designed to operate from industrial power systems
with normal AC line conditions without the need of
additional line impedance from either an isolation
transformer or a line reactor. However, when
abnormal line conditions exist, additional line
impedance may be required. Typically, line reactors
are used to:

• Lower the available fault current on high fault
distribution systems
• Limit the total harmonic voltage distortion from
the AC drive at the point of common coupling to
align with IEEE 519 guidelines
• Prevent AC drive nuisance tripping due to
transient overvoltages from power factor
correction capacitor switching

• Reduce the input rms current to the AC drive
ratings

Class 8839 58M Enclosed AC Drives
Motor Protecting Output Filters
Low pass filters can be used on the output of the
Class 8839 58M Enclosed AC Drive to decease
the stress of resonant frequencies on the attached
motor. While low pass filters are not necessary for
most installations, they do provide substantial
benefits in installations involving long motor leads,
such as:
• 460 V or higher rated AC drives
• 1–25 hp rated units, if cable lead lengths are in
excess of 75 feet
• 30–400 hp rated units, if cable lead lengths are
in excess of 300 feet

• Use of a non–inverter duty rated motor(s)
• Existing general purpose motors subject to
retrofit to an AC drive
The motor protecting output filters combine
inductance, capacitance, and resistance to form a
low pass filter. This filter will lower the dV/dt levels
to prevent exciting the natural resonant wire
frequency of the motor cables. Motors compliant
to NEMA MG–1 Part 31 guidelines do not require
the use of motor protecting output filters.

Class 8839 58M Enclosed AC Drives
Three Phase Drive Isolation Transformers
Drive Isolation transformers are designed for maximum benefit when applied to an AC drive.
In addition to the functional comparison of a line reactor, drive isolation transformers are normally used
for one of the following reasons over a standard line reactor:
1. Match system voltage to drive rating.
2. Meet local or plant codes that require isolation.
3. Capable of correcting line voltage unbalance conditions commonly seen with open delta and corner
grounded delta distribution systems.
4. Provides continuity of service for nuisance grounding.
5. Reduces drive induced currents in supply feeder ground and limit ground fault currents.
6. Isolate the electrical common mode noise generated in solid state controllers from the distribution
system.
The Class 8839 58M Enclosed AC drives have a high fault withstand capability (up to 65,000 A or
100,000 A depending upon configuration). For these reasons, Square D does not require the use of a
drive isolation transformer for isolation purposes unless the system requires one or more of the six
functions listed above.

Class 8839 58M Enclosed AC Drives
Application Information
When selecting and applying AC Drives, the
following items should be considered where they
are applicable. Proper selection and application of
an AC Drive is essential to ensure reliable
operation and maximum performance of the
connected motor load. Please consult Product
Data Bulletin SC100 R5/95 “Adjustable
Frequency Controllers Application Guide” for
further details.

2. Ambient temperature/altitude
3. AC Line & motor voltage
4. Power factor
5. Harmonics
6. Input currents with and without line reactors
7. Drive isolation transformer
8. Speed range & regulation
9. Accelerating torque
10. Dynamic braking
11. Follower signals
12. PI regulator
13. Bypass operation
14. Motor selection
15. Enclosure types
16. Relay contact ratings
AC Drive Selection
The Class 8839 58M Enclosed AC drive is
selected based on the connected motor full load
current. AC drives in this catalog are listed by
horsepower, voltage and maximum continuous
output current ratings that align to the latest NEC
ratings. The motor horsepower rating may be
used to select the AC drive, provided it’s full load
current does not exceed the maximum continuous
output current rating of the drive. When the motor
full load current does exceed the maximum
continuous output rating of the AC drive, a larger
one must be selected.
In multi-motor applications the sum of the motor
full load current, not horsepower must be used to
select the appropriate AC drive.
Ambient Temperature/Altitude
The AC Drive and connected motor is rated to
operate in an ambient temperature of 0–40 °C
(32–104 °F), and deliver full rated horsepower
nameplate data. When ambient temperatures
exceed the 40 °C (104 °F) operational ambient
environment, both the AC drive and motor must
be derated. For installations that require a higher
operating ambient, derate by one horsepower size
to a maximum of 50°C (122 °F).

The Class 8839 58M Enclosed AC drives are also
rated for up to 3,300 feet (1,000 meters) altitude
without derating. Above these ratings, the AC
drive must be derated by 1.2% for every 300 feet
(100 meters) up to a maximum of 6,600 feet
(2,000 meters). For conditions where altitude
exceeds 6,600 feet, special considerations apply.
Environment, application, loading, and ambient
operating conditions could extend altitude range.
AC Line & Motor Voltage
The Class 8839 58M Enclosed AC drives are
designed for operation under continuous rated
input power from 208 V, 230 V and 460 V line
voltages, ± 10% at 50/60 Hz. The selection tables
list the horsepowers available at the different
voltage ratings. Alternate line voltage
configurations are also available on a special
order basis. Consult the Drives Applications
Group for those applications.
Normally, input voltage and motor voltage will be
the same, however, certain applications requiring
constant torque above 60 Hz base speed will
involve connecting the AC drive to a 460 V supply
and connecting the motor for 230 V at 60 Hz. The
AC drive can be adjusted to provide 230 V out at
60 Hz and 460 V out at 120 Hz. If this mode of
operation is desired, the AC drive must be
selected based on the full load current at 230 V.
Power Factor
The Class 8839 58M Enclosed AC drive uses
bridge rectifiers which convert the fixed voltage
and frequency from the AC line to a fixed DC bus
voltage. Operation of the rectifiers does not cause
any additional displacement between the voltage
and current on the AC line feeding the AC drive.
This means that the displacement power factor
(power factor measured by the utility) will not be
degraded. Therefore, the AC drive power factor is
rated 0.95 or better (lagging) at all times.
Harmonics
Concerning the subject of harmonics, all types
of adjustable speed drives using power
semiconductors and switching power supplies will
produce harmonic currents, which will cause a
non-sinusoidal voltage in the power system. The
suggested guidelines for voltage and current
distortion are addressed in IEEE Standard 5191992 titled "IEEE Recommended Practices and
Requirements for Harmonic Control in Electrical
Power Systems", which suggests distortion limits
dependent upon the electric power distribution
system for industrial and commercial consumers.

09/2003

Class 8839 58M Enclosed AC Drives
Application Information
Collectively, all facility loads and the building
electrical distribution network determines the
harmonic levels at the user & electric utility
interface. Commonly misapplied, the Electrical
Power Research Institute (EPRI) recognizes the
'Point of Common Coupling' or PCC as the
interface between user and electric utility (energy
meter) in the electrical distribution network. This
position will also be supported in the forthcoming
Application Guide (P519A) being prepared by the
Harmonics Working Group of IEEE. Square D
Company will typically provide 'drive isolation
transformers' or 'line reactors' as the most cost
effective method of harmonic abatement.
For specifications that are regulated by utilities
to the IEEE 519 guidelines, there are alternate
methods of harmonic abatement. Consult product
support or customer service for enclosed drives
for configurations and pricing.
Input Currents Ratings
(with and without Line Reactor)
Square D publishes input currents based on
distribution system impedance at various
available fault current ratings. Our literature
reflects multiple input current ratings based on
available fault currents
• 5,000 AIC (1–50 hp) or
10,000 AIC (60–200 hp) or
18,000 AIC (250–400 hp)
and
• 22,000 AIC
and
• 65,000 AIC
and
• 100,000 AIC
More common, line reactors are provided with the
majority of AC Drives today. The reasons
proliferate from abnormal line conditions, IEEE
519 guidelines, to power quality concerns. Line
reactors provide the most cost effective option to
minimize harmonic currents reflected back into
the distribution system. The use of line reactance
ahead of the AC drive will function best to:
1. Reduce line current harmonic injection into
the primary source, limiting the input ‘rms’
currents to less than or equal to motor full load
amps.
2. Reduce the available feeder short circuit
capacity.
3. Meet specified line impedance requirements.
5 KAIC, 10 KAIC, 22 KAIC, and 65 KAIC short
circuit current rating up to 100 hp, and 65

KAIC and 100 KAIC short circuit current rating
for 125–500 hp. By listing the alternate input
currents when using a series line reactor, the
user could benefit in savings reflected in
conductor and disconnect selection, as
required by the National Electric Code.
Drive Isolation Transformer
Drive Isolation transformers are designed for
maximum benefit when applied to an AC drive. In
addition to the functional comparison of a line
reactor, drive isolation transformers are normally
used for one of the following reasons over a
standard line reactor:
1. Match system voltage to drive rating.
2. Meet local or plant codes that require
isolation.
3. Capable of correcting line voltage unbalance
conditions commonly seen with open delta
and corner grounded delta distribution
systems.
4. Provides continuity of service for nuisance
grounding.
5. Reduces drive induced currents in supply
feeder ground and limit ground fault currents.
6. Isolate the electrical common mode noise
generated in solid state controllers from the
distribution system.
The Class 8839 58M Enclosed AC drives have a
high fault withstand capability (up to 65,000 A or
100,000 A depending upon configuration). For
these reasons, Square D does not suggest the
use of a drive isolation transformer for isolation
purposes unless the system requires one or more
of the six functions listed above.
Speed Range & Regulation
The Class 8839 58M Enclosed AC drives will
operate within the range of 0.1 to 60 Hz
(configurable up to 500 Hz). Please note, if
operating motors above base speed, the motor
manufacturer must approve operation for the
specified speed range.
Speed regulation is determined by one of several
modes of configuration. Most AC drives utilize the
volts/hertz mode where speed regulation is
determined by the motor slip, typically 3% or less.
The Class 8839 58M Enclosed AC drive utilizes
sensorless flux vector mode (SLFV) as standard
with 1% speed regulation; with optional
tachometer can be improved to 0.5%.

Class 8839 58M Enclosed AC Drives
Application Information
Accelerating Torque
AC induction motors built to NEMA standards are
designed to provide starting torque which must
meet certain minimum ratings. This is normally
expressed as a percentage of full load torque.
These torque ratings are valid only for full voltage
starting where inrush current can be
approximately 600% of motor full load current.
The Class 8839 58M Enclosed AC drive will limit
starting current to a value of usually not more than
150% (CT rated) to 110% (VT rated) of drive full
load current, which provides approximately 150%
starting torque for CT loads and 110% for VT
loads.
AC Drives provide better torque per ampere than
any other reduced inrush method, but the starting
torque available may be less than the starting
torque available with an across-the-line starter.
Applications with known high starting torque
requirements should be carefully evaluated. It
may be necessary to oversize the AC Drive, or the
motor to provide the necessary accelerating
torque.
Dynamic Braking
Dynamic braking directs the regenerative energy
from an AC induction motor dissipated in the form
of heat through a resistor. This condition presents
an electrical load, or retarding torque, to the
motor, which is acting as a generator. The
thermal capacity required for this resistor is
determined by the stopping duty cycle for the load
and the energy dissipated for each deceleration.
Dynamic braking requires the motor to remain
energized to maintain the rotating magnetic field.
Dynamic braking cannot operate during periods
where power is lost and cannot maintain holding
torque when the AC Drive is stopped. A
mechanical brake must be used when the
application requires a holding torque at zero speed.
A dynamic braking resistor configuration is
available as optional equipment. The dynamic
braking resistor is sized to be capable of
absorbing six times the stored energy of a motor
at maximum speed, which means it could make 6
consecutive stops from rated speed without
overheating. Applications with high inertia are
typical candidates for dynamic braking.
Follower Signals
The Class 8839 58M Enclosed AC drives are
designed to accept a 4–20 mAdc or optional
0–10 Vdc analog input, or an optional 3–15 psig
analog input. Other follower signals may be

accommodated which will require additional
hardware or signal conditioners as optional
equipment.
PI Regulator
The Class 8839 58M Enclosed AC drive has a
build in PI regulator to provide set-point control
from the key pad or remote analog signal.
Selection parameters are set via the key pad to
automatically control a level, pressure or flow
process. This PI function does not require any
additional hardware, such as options boards or
separately mounted equipment.
Bypass Operation
Although the Class 8839 58M Enclosed AC drive
is designed for maximum reliability, it is possible
that a controller could be out of service when
required to operate. Critical operations which can
tolerate little or no down time should be
considered as candidates for bypass (full speed)
operation.
This involves an isolation contactor to disconnect
the motor from the AC Drive and a full voltage
starter to bypass the controller and operate the
motor across-the-line or by an alternate starter
such as a reduced voltage autotransformer starter
or a solid state reduced voltage starter.
Motor Selection
The Class 8839 58M Enclosed AC drives are
designed to operate with any three phase AC
squirrel cage induction motor or synchronous
reluctance motor having voltage and current
ratings compatible with the drive.
It is recommended that all motors used with AC
Drives be equipped with thermostats in the stator
windings. This affords the ultimate motor
overload protection much better protection than
overload devices sensitive to motor current,
because motor temperature may rise due to loss
of cooling resulting from low speed operation and
not necessarily because of an overcurrent
condition.
The motor should meet NEMA MG-1, Part 31
standards. This motor spec calls for 1600 volt
rated magnet wire, while the NEMA MG-1, Part 30
standard calls for 1000 volt rated magnet wire.
The higher voltage rated magnet wire will protect
against possible premature motor failures due to
voltage stress from fast dv/dt rise times commonly
seen with IGBT based AC Drives.

Class 8839 Econoflex™ AC Drives
Application Information
APPLICATION INFORMATION
When selecting and applying AC Drives, consider the following:
• AC drive selection
• Ambient temperature/altitude
• AC line and motor voltage
• Power factor
• Harmonics
• Input currents, with and without line reactors
• Drive isolation transformer
• Speed range and regulation
• Accelerating torque
• Follower signals
• Bypass operation
• Enclosure type
• Motor selection
AC Drive Selection
The Econoflex AC Drive Controller is selected based on the connected motor full load current. The
Econoflex is listed by horsepower, voltage and maximum continuous output current rating that align to
the latest NEC ratings. The motor horsepower rating may be used to select the Drive Controller,
provided that the full load current does not exceed the maximum continuous output current rating of the
Econoflex. When the motor full load current does exceed the maximum continuous output rating of the
drive controller, select the next highest drive controller.
In multi-motor applications, the sum of the motor full load current, not horsepower must be used to select
the appropriate AC Drive.
Ambient Temperature/Altitude
Storage Temperatures for the Econoflex range from –25 to 65 °C (–13 to 149 °F).
The Econoflex Drive Controller is rated to operate in an ambient temperature of –10 to 40 °C (+14 to
104 °F). When ambient temperatures exceed 40 °C (104 °F), the drive controller and motor must be
derated. For installations that require a higher operating ambient, derate by one horsepower size to a
maximum of 50 °C (122 °F).
The Econoflex is rated for up to 3300 ft (1000 m) altitude without derating. Above these ratings, derate
current by 1% for each additional 330 ft (100 m). For conditions where altitude exceeds 6600 ft (2000
m), special considerations apply. Environment, application, loading and ambient operating conditions
could extend altitude range.
AC Line & Motor Voltage
The Econoflex Drive Controller is designed for operation under continuous rated input power from 208
V, 230 V and 460 V line voltages ±10% at 60 Hz.
Power Factor
The Econoflex Drive Controller uses diode bridge rectifiers that converts the fixed voltage and frequency
from the AC line to a fixed DC bus voltage. Operation of the rectifiers does not cause any additional
displacement between the voltage and current on the AC line feeding the Drive Controller.
This means that the displacement power factor (power factor measured by the utility) will not be
degraded. Therefore, the AC drive power factor is rated 0.98 or better (lagging) at all times.

Class 8839 Econoflex™ AC Drives
Application Information
APPLICATION INFORMATION (CONTINUED)
Harmonics
Any device that uses a switching power device will produce a non-linear load and harmonics. The
suggested guidelines for voltage and current distortion are addressed in IEEE Standard 519-1992 titled
“IEEE Recommended Practices and Requirements for Harmonic Control in Electrical Power Systems.”
IEEE 519-1992 suggests distortion limits dependent upon the electric power distribution system for
industrial and commercial consumers.
Collectively, all factory loads and the building electrical distribution network determines the harmonic
levels at the user and electric utility interface. Commonly misapplied, the Electrical Power Research
Institute (EPRI) recognizes the interface between user and electric utility (energy meter) in the electrical
distribution network. This position is also supported in the Application Guide (P519A) prepared by the
Harmonics Working Group of IEEE. Square D Company will typically provide line reactors or drive
isolation transformers as the most cost effective method of harmonic abatement.
There are alternative methods of harmonic abatement that can be supplied such as 18 pulse and Mirus
Lineator™ suppressors, not included within this catalog.
Input Current Ratings
Square D publishes input currents based on distribution system impedance at various available fault
current ratings. Our literature reflects multiple input current ratings based on available fault currents.
• 5,000 AIC (1 to 50 HP @ 208/230/460 V)
• 10,000 AIC (60 to 100 HP @ 460 V)
• 22,000 AIC (1 to 100 HP @ 460 V and 1 to 50 HP @ 208/230 V when Mod G09 is selected)
Line reactors are provided with the majority of AC drives today. Line reactors are included in the
Econoflex for 25 to 100 HP at 460 Vac and 15 to 50 HP at 208/230 Vac. Select Mod A09 to include a
factory-enclosed reactor for 1 to 20 HP at 460 Vac and 1 to 10 HP at 208/230 V.
The use of line reactance ahead of the AC drive will:
• Reduce line current harmonic injection into the primary source.
• Limit the total harmonic voltage distortion from the AC drive at the pint of common coupling to align
with IEEE 519.
• Lower the available feeder short circuit capacity.
• Meet specified line impedance requirements.
• Prevent AC drive nuisance tripping due to transient overvoltages from power factor correction
capacitor switching.
• All branch circuit components and equipment must be rated for the input current of the drive controller
or the rated output current whichever value is larger.
Drive Isolation Transformer
Square D does not suggest the use of a drive isolation transformer unless the system requires one or
more of items listed below. In addition to the functional comparison of a line reactor, drive transformers
are normally used for one of the following reasons:
• Match system voltage to drive rating.
• Meet local or plant codes that require isolation.
• Capable of correcting line voltage unbalance conditions commonly seen with open delta and corner
grounded delta distribution systems.
• Provides continuity of service for nuisance grounding.
• Reduces drive induced current in supply feeder ground and limit ground fault currents.
• Isolate the electrical common mode noise generated in solid state controllers from the distribution
system.

Class 8839 Econoflex™ AC Drives
Application Information
APPLICATION INFORMATION (CONTINUED)
Speed Range and Regulation
The Econoflex Drive Controller operates within the range of 0.1 to 500 Hz. Factory setting is at 60 Hz.
Please note, if operating motor above base speed, the motor manufacturer must approve this type of
operation.
Accelerating Torque
AC induction motors built to NEMA standards are designed to provide starting torque which must meet
certain minimum ratings. This is normally expressed as a percentage of full load torque. These torque
ratings are valid only for full voltage starting where inrush current can be approximately 600% of motor
full load current. The Econoflex Drive Controller will limit starting current to a value usually not more than
110% (Variable Toque rated) of drive full load current, which provides approximately 110% starting
toque for VT loads.
AC Drives provide better torque per ampere than any other reduced current method, but the starting
torque available may be less than the starting torque available with an across-the-line starter.
Applications with known high starting torque requirements should be carefully evaluated. It may be
necessary to oversize the drive controller or the motor to provide the necessary accelerating torque.
Follower Signals
The Econoflex Drive Controller is designed to accept either a 4 to 20 mAdc or 3 to 15 PSI (Mod C09) or
0-10 Vdc (Mod J09) signal.
Bypass Operation
Although the Econoflex is designed for maximum reliability, it is possible that a controller could be out
of service when required to operate. Critical operations which can tolerate little or no down time should
be considered for a bypass (full speed) circuit.
The bypass circuit consists of an isolation contactor and bypass contactor mechanically and electrically
isolated. The isolation contactor disconnects the motor from the power converter. The Bypass contactor
closes and operates the motor across-the-line.
Enclosure Types
The Econoflex Drive Controller is available in a Type 1 or Type 12 K enclosure. Type 12 K is a
Type 12 with conduit knockouts.
Motor Selection
Econoflex Drive Controllers are designed to operate with any three phase AC squirrel cage induction
motor or synchronous reluctance motor having voltage and current rating compatible with the Drive
Controller.
The motor should meet NEMA MG1, Part 31 standards. The Part 31 standard calls for 1600 Volt rated
magnet wire, while the Part 30 standard calls for 1000 Volt rated magnet wire. The higher voltage rated
magnet wire will protect against possible premature motor failures due to voltage stress from fast dv/dt
rise times commonly seen with IGBT based AC Drives.

MCC PACKAGE FEATURES
8998 ATV58 MCC Panel Section.tif

As standard, basic MCC Altivar 58 TRX AC Drive units include:
• Altivar 58 TRX AC drive.
• Operator keypad display mounted on the front of the unit.
• Disconnect (circuit breaker or fused switch).
• Class J power fuses (for drives less than 125 hp).
• Cooling fans.
• UL 845 Listed for 100,000 amperes short circuit current rating at 480 Vac.
• Control station plate with space for five 22 mm operators.
• Three-phase line reactor for drives above 25 hp variable torque (VT) @ 480 V, or above 20 hp
constant torque (CT) or variable torque low noise (VTLN) @ 480 V, or above 10 hp @ 208/240 V.
Most MCC Altivar 58 TRX AC Drive units are plug-on style saddles which can be factory/field-installed
in Model 6 MCCs or field-installed in Model 5 MCCs. There are no placement limitations for
mounting any Altivar 58 TRX AC Drive in Square D MCC sections. Drive units are designed with
standard features of Model 6 MCC units, such as:
• White interiors for greater visibility in maintenance.
• Cast metal disconnect handle for ruggedness.
• Twin-handle cam racking mechanism in plug-on units for easy installation/removal.
• Vertical and horizontal wireways are left undisturbed by the drive unit.
Integral to each MCC AC Drive unit is a thermal management system designed to maintain the drive
and other electrical devices at recommended temperatures. The thermal management system included
in NEMA/EEMAC Type 1 or 1A (Gasketed) MCC Altivar 58 TRX AC Drive units consists of fans and
louvered doors which force outside air across the Altivar 58 TRX AC Drive component for cooling
purposes (see the figure on the next page).
The thermal management system included in NEMA/EEMAC Type 12 MCC Altivar 58 TRX AC Drive
units consists of a closed duct system to separate outside air from electrical components. Inlet and
outlet ducts allow airflow across the metal heatsink fins of the Altivar 58 TRX AC Drive component as
shown in the figure on the next page.
This totally enclosed duct cooled (TEDC) concept achieves the oiltight/dusttight rating required for
NEMA/EEMAC Type 12 and removes heat without contaminating the drive electronics or other MCC
units with outside air. The thermal management systems are self-powered and include protection to
shutdown the drive in case of fan or duct blockage.

Multi-Drive Process Line Cabinets
MULTI-DRIVE PROCESS LINE CABINETS
MCC-style 90" high relay sections are available with group-mounted Altivar 58 TRX AC drives. All drives
are installed together in one cabinet instead of individual plug-on MCC units. This allows greater density
and reduces floor space over traditional MCC unit construction. Drives are not isolated from each other,
and are fed from one circuit breaker disconnect.
Multi-drive process line cabinets are suited for process line applications where a fault or maintenance
of one drive on the process requires the entire process to shut down. Applications in automotive, food
and beverage, pharmaceutical, and other process industries using multiple drives for a single process
machine are candidates for this product. Pre-engineered, pre-assembled packaging saves third-party
assembly labor and commission time on simple installations.
An efficient cooling system and current-limiting fuses provide factory-assured, UL-certified performance
to UL 845 MCC standards. Each drive has a uniquely numbered door-mounted keypad for easy
monitoring and setup. Drives can be set up with a program from a single keypad if preferred.

Any number of drives up to the maximum indicated in the table below may be installed in the multi-drive
process line cabinet. However, all drives in the same cabinet must be of the same rating. Panels for
adding the maximum number of drives will be installed.
8998-008.art

multi10_34%

Only drives rated 480 Vac are available and are pre-programmed for constant torque applications. No
control pilot devices or 120 Vac control power is available, making this package more suited for simple
remote control schemes or for further integration in the field. Packages are designed for NEMA Type 1
environments. Horizontal bus is provided for splicing to existing Model 5 or 6 MCC sections or an
additional MCC incoming line section.
