  • Page 7: Introduction

    Introduction Connecting the DC buses of frequency converters together results in energy savings and in some cases simplifies the connection to the main supply. With common DC the braking energy of one converter can be used for the other converters and motors.

    Possible main supply connections Figure 1. Common DC connections. Cases a and b. R7 / R6 R7 / R5 Figure 2. Common DC connections. Cases c, d1 and d2. Cases b, c and d can be used when the total power taken from the main supply, , is smaller than the drive power rating, P , of the biggest converter.

    Step by step guide 1) Select the converters and preselect the main supply connection. See Possible main supply connections Appendix A Charging circuit capacity. 2) Check from Table 1 that the connection is possible. 3) Check by using equation 1 that the load does not exceed the total power limit of the system.

    The power correction factor, k, for each combination can be found from Table 1. When several converters are connected to the main supply, the least efficient power correction factor is chosen from table 1, i.e. the smallest factor. See Example1 Example2.

    Cables • Select the input power cables as described in the appropriate drive Hardware Manual. The cross-sectional area of the DC cables must be the same as the cross-sectional area of the AC side cables. • If screened DC cables are used, ground the screen at the other end only. •...

  • Page 15: Allowed Braking Power And Need For A Brake Resistor

    Allowed braking power and need for a brake resistor 1. For each drive check that the braking power does not exceed the allowed braking power. See Calculation of the allowed braking power below. 2. For the common DC system check whether it needs to be equipped with an additional brake chopper and resistor.

  • Page 16: Calculation Of The Allowed Braking Power

    Calculation of the allowed braking power If drive is not connected to the main supply, ensure that the braking power meets condition 1 below. If drive is connected to the main supply, ensure the braking power meets condition 1 AND condition 2 below. Condition 1 The drive braking power may not exceed the drive power rating.

    Wiring Supply Use the same supply connection point. All converters must be fed from the same transformer. The supply impedance is an important parameter, which influences the current distribution. All converters must have equal supply impedance.

    Appendix A Charging circuit capacity The total power of the common DC system P is higher if the smallest converter out.tot is not connected directly to the main supply. To determine whether it is possible to leave some converters unconnected, the total charging energy of the DC capacitors and associated inrush currents must be analysed.
