Input Line Disturbance

1.1 Medium Voltage Low Fault Name — Medium Voltage Low

Displayed Message

Medium Voltage Low Medium Voltage Low 1 Medium Voltage Low 2 The input voltage faults/alarms are determined as follows. The three input phases are measured via a voltage attenuator. The attenuating resistors are chosen based on the required input voltage. The attenuated three-phase input voltages are sampled at the fast loop rate of 3000 to 6000 samples per second. The square of these scaled samples is then averaged over one input cycle. For a sixty hertz input system with a 6000 Hz fast loop, this means 1 / 60 * 6000 or 100 samples. The square root of the sum of these averaged input voltage squares determine the RMS value of the input voltage. This calculated RMS value is then filtered using a 1.4 Hz low pass filter. The resultant value is known as Erms. Erms is then checked by the fault system at 300 Hz.

Description of Fault/Alarm

If, when the fault system checks the value of Erms, it is less than 55% and the drive is not running, a “Medium voltage Low” fault is generated. If the drive is running and a cell fault occurs, and the value of Erms is less than 55%, a “Medium voltage Low” fault is generated. This is done to allow ride-through and to mask the resultant cell faults from the low medium voltage. In version 2.5, this has been changed so that if the value of Erms is less than 55%, a “Medium voltage Low” fault is not generated until a cell fault occurs, whether the drive is running or not. In version 3.2, this was changed so that a “Medium Voltage Low” fault is only generated when the drive is running and the above conditions are met. If the drive is not running, no fault is generated. If the value of Erms is under 90% for an entire alarm hysteresis period, then a “Medium voltage low 1” alarm is issued. If Erms goes above 90% for an entire alarm hysteresis period, the alarm is canceled. This alarm must be enabled by SOP flag. If the value of Erms is under 70% for an entire alarm hysteresis period, then a “Medium voltage low 2” alarm is issued. If Erms goes above 70% for an entire alarm hysteresis period, the alarm is canceled. Note: This threshold is set at 80% for AFE (4Q) cells.

Fault Name — Medium Voltage Low

1 Associated Parameters

The sampled voltages are scaled based on the menu parameter ID 3040 “Input voltage scaler.” This is not a simple scaling operation since there are variations in the scaling due to the available discrete values for the attenuator resistors. For this reason, the software prior to version 2.5 has stored in it a table of expected values for the attenuator resistors to be used for each available voltage. Because we never know if the specified attenuator resistors will change in the future or if new voltages will be needed, version 2.5, rather than use a table of stored values, adds an additional parameter ID 3045 “Input Attenuator Sum” in which the exact value of resistors must be specified.

Hysteresis or Delay

Faults have no delay or hysteresis. Alarms use hysteresis before being triggered. Before version 2.3, the alarm hysteresis was 30 fault system samples or 1/10 second before an alarm was issued. After version 2.3, the alarm hysteresis is now 150 fault system samples or ½ second before an alarm is issued.

1.2 Line Over Voltage

1

Fault Name — Line Over Voltage

Displayed Message

Line over voltage Line over voltage 1 Line over voltage 2 The input voltage faults/alarms are determined as follows: The three input phases are measured via a voltage attenuator. The attenuating resistors are chosen based on the required input voltage. The attenuated three phase input voltages are sampled at the fast loop rate of 3000 to 6000 samples per second. The square of these scaled samples is then averaged over one input cycle. For a sixty hertz input system with a 6000 Hz fast loop, this means 1 / 60 * 6000 or 100 samples. The square root of the sum of these averaged input voltage squares determines the RMS value of the input voltage. This calculated RMS value is then filtered using a 1.4 Hz low pass filter. The resultant value is known as Erms. Erms is then checked by the fault system at 300 Hz.

Description of Fault/Alarm

If, when the fault system checks the value of Erms it is greater than 120%, a “Line over voltage” fault is generated. In version 2.5, a ½ second hysteresis was added to this fault along with the ability to set this condition to be an alarm by setting a flag in the SOP. If the value of Erms is above 110% for an entire alarm hysteresis period, then a “Line over voltage 1” alarm is issued. If Erms goes below 110% for an entire alarm hysteresis period, the alarm is canceled. This alarm must be enabled by SOP flag. If the value of Erms is above 115% for an entire alarm hysteresis period, then a “Line over voltage 2” alarm is issued. If Erms goes below 115% for an entire alarm hysteresis period, the alarm is canceled. This alarm must be enabled by SOP flag.

1.3 Input Phase Imbalance

1

Fault Name — Input Phase Imbalance Displayed Message

Input Phase Imbalance

Description of Fault/Alarm

This is a feature that monitors the drive input (line) current imbalance. If the calculated imbalance exceeds the setting in the Phase Imbalance Limit parameter (Menu ID 7105 in the Drive Protection Menu), this may indicate a neutral current path or ground fault condition, or may be due to shorted windings in the transformer.

Associated Parameters

Menu ID 7105 located in the Drive Protection Menu. This parameter is a threshold for determining the trip point for the Alarm/Fault. The value has a range of 0 to 100%. The default is 40%. The CT Secondary Turns Parameter (Menu ID 3035) can also have an adverse effect if it does not match the CT used in the Drive.

Hysteresis or Delay

Faults have no delay or hysteresis. Alarms use hysteresis before being triggered. Before version 2.3, the alarm hysteresis was 30 fault system samples or 1/10 second before an alarm was issued. After version 2.3, the alarm hysteresis is now 150 fault system samples or ½ second before an alarm is issued.

Data Source

The Current Transformers on Phase B and C of the Drive Input (Line) current.

Variables in Data Source

Current Transformers, wiring from the CTs to the Signal Conditioning Board, Burden Resistors located on the Signal Conditioning Board, System Interface Board, and CT Secondary Turns Parameter (Menu ID 3035).

SOP Flags that affect Operation

“InputPhaseImbalanceWn_O” sets “input phase imbalance” as an alarm. The SOP flag “InputPhaseImbalance_I” is set when the conditions are met, indicating an Input Phase Imbalance.

System Location of Data Source

The CTs are typically located in the same cabinet as the Input Transformer. The location of the Burden Resistors is at the terminal block of the Signal Conditioning Board (typically mounted on a DIN rail). The System Interface Board is located within the NXG chassis and is an ISA board plugged into the NXG ISA backplane.

Potential Issues that affect the Fault Performance

The CT Secondary Turns Parameter (Menu ID 3035) can also have an adverse effect if it does not match the CT used in the Drive. The Burden resistors located on the Signal Conditioning Board must match the rated value for the CT and Drive rating.

1.4 Input One Cycle

1

Fault Name — Input One Cycle Displayed Message

Input One Cycle

Description of Fault/Alarm

Detects the condition of excessive reactive current in the input transformer. This is possibly an indication that one or more of the input transformer secondaries may be shorted or inrush current is too high, causing nuisance trips. This fault creates an input protection fault, and with dedicated I/O, will open the input breaker automatically. Refer to Input Protection Fault Section 1.14 for details.

Associated Parameters

Xformer protection const (Menu ID 7100) is a constant that is related to the thermal gain of the transformer. This is set at the factory and should not be adjusted. The 1 Cyc Protect integ gain (Menu ID 7080) and 1 Cycle Protect Limit (Menu ID 7081) are set at the factory and should not be adjusted.

Hysteresis or Delay

Faults have no delay or hysteresis. Alarms use hysteresis before being triggered. Before version 2.3, the alarm hysteresis was 30 fault system samples or 1/10 second before an alarm was issued. After version 2.3, the alarm hysteresis is now 150 fault system samples or ½ second before an alarm is issued.

Data Source

The data source is the Input Current measurements from Phase B and C of the Current Transformers.

Variables in Data Source

It should integrate to one under normal conditions and integrate toward zero when the reactive currents get too high.

SOP Flags that affect Operation

“InputOneCycle_I” is set when this condition exists. “InputOneCycleWn_O” sets input one cycle detection to an alarm.

System Location of Data Source

The CTs are typically located in the same cabinet as the Input Transformer. The location of the Burden Resistors is at the terminal block of the Signal Conditioning Board (typically mounted on a DIN rail). The System Interface Board is located within the NXG chassis and is an ISA board plugged into the NXG ISA back-plane.

Potential Issues that affect the Fault Performance

If the trips are related to inrush current; reduce the 1 Cyc Protect integ gain (Menu ID 7080) and the 1 Cycle Protect Limit (Menu ID 7081) to avoid nuisance trips

Corrective Action for Deficiencies

Remove medium voltage and visually inspect all the cells and their connections to the transformer secondary. If the trips are related to inrush current, reduce the 1 Cyc Protect integ gain (Menu ID 7080) and the 1 Cycle Protect Limit (Menu ID 7081) to avoid nuisance trips.

1.5 Input Ground Fault Name — Input Ground Displayed Message

Input Ground

Description of Fault/Alarm

Determines the average voltage from neutral point to ground. Its purpose is to protect the transformer in case one of the phases is shorted to ground. If the average voltage is greater than a menu settable trip point, the alarm is asserted.

Associated Parameters

Ground Fault Limit (Menu ID = 7106) sets the threshold of voltage for Ground Fault Detection. Ground Fault Time Const (Menu ID = 7107) sets the filter time constant for smoothing the ripple and delaying the response of the Ground Fault Detection. (Only in version 2.6 or greater.)

Hysteresis or Delay

Faults have no delay or hysteresis. Alarms use hysteresis before being triggered. Before version 2.3, the alarm hysteresis was 30 fault system samples or 1/10 second before an alarm was issued.

1.6 Input Phase Loss

1

Fault Name — Input Phase Loss Displayed Message

Input Phase Loss The Input phase loss is an alarm that indicates that one of the line input phases to the drive may not be available. A calculated value of imbalance voltage based on measurements from the output voltage attenuators is compared to a fixed threshold of 30%. If this value exceeds this threshold, an alarm is asserted. The imbalance voltage is determined by the difference of the largest and smallest phase voltage divided by the average.

Description of Fault/Alarm

The drive begins a power rollback beginning at an imbalance of 10%, and continues linearly until maximum input power is limited to 40% at the voltage imbalance of 30%. This maximum input power level is used to clamp the output total current limit based on the output voltage. The maximum total current level in turn, is used to calculate the maximum torque current allowed (by vector subtraction of the magnetizing current) in the form of a torque limit to the speed regulator. The speed regulator uses the lowest of the many torque limits calculated for different conditions, and if this limit is the lowest, could put the drive into speed rollback.

Associated Parameters

None

Hysteresis or Delay

Faults have no delay or hysteresis. Alarms use hysteresis before being triggered. Before version 2.3, the alarm hysteresis was 30 fault system samples or 1/10 second before an alarm was issued.

1.7 Excessive Drive Losses

1

Fault Name — Excessive Drive Losses Displayed Message

Description of Fault/Alarm

Excessive Drive Losses NXG Control utilizes input power and output power calculations to determine whether an internal fault has occurred in the power circuit of the VFD. Drive Power Loss is estimated as the difference between input power and output power. This quantity is continuously checked with a pre-defined threshold that is inverse time based. If the threshold is exceeded by design margin (as listed in the following figures), then the trip occurs in a defined time period after the event. This fault creates an input protection fault, and with dedicated I/O, will open the input breaker automatically. Refer to Input Protection Fault Section 1.14 for details. Since the Drive Losses calculation depends on input and output power calculations, it is important to make sure that the following parameters are set correctly: •

Drive Input and Output Rated Values (voltage and current IDs 2010, 2020, 2030, 2040).



Drive Input Scalers (IDs 3030, 3040): These parameters are used to adjust the input voltage and current measurements measured by the control. Default values are 1.0 for both scalers.



Input CT Turns (ID 3045): This parameter represents the secondary turns on the input CT with 5 turns on the primary side. This parameter can be obtained from the VFD drawing that shows input side connections.



Output Scalers (IDs 3440, 3450): These parameters are used to adjust the output voltage and current measurements measured by the control. Default values are 1.0 for both scalers.



Low Freq Wo (ID 3060): This parameter should match the version of System Interface Board, as this parameter affects the phase-shift introduced in the measured voltage signals (and hence affects the output power calculation). This parameter should be set to: 12.566 rad/s for the 461F53.00 version of System Interface Board or 37.859 rad/s for the 461F53.02 version of System Interface Board.

“ExcessiveDriveLossesWn_O” sets excessive drive losses as an alarm.

System Location of Data Source

Voltage Attenuators are located in the input/output cabinet of the drive. Current Transducers are located with the input transformer cabinet. The Hall Effect Sensors are located in the Input/Output Cabinet. The Hall Effect Power supplies are located in the Control Cabinet. The following defines the proper method to use in determining drive ratings and establishes the proper value for the appropriate parameters. •

RATED INPUT VOLTAGE (ID 2010) Set according to input transformer primary voltage rating. Note: The input attenuator kit should always correspond to the rated primary voltage of the transformer.



RATED INPUT CURRENT (ID 2020) Set according to input transformer nameplate kVA rating as follows:

Rated Input Current = [(kVA rating) x (802)] / [(1.732) x (Rated nominal primary voltage) x (0.96) x (0.94)] Rated Input Current = [(kVA rating) / (Rated nominal primary voltage)] x [513.11] Example: Potential Issues that affect the Fault Performance

Input transformer nameplate reads 1250 kVA, 6600 V. Rated Input Current = [(1250) / (6600)] x [513.11] = 97.2 A •

RATED OUTPUT VOLTAGE (ID 2030) Set according to rating of the output attenuator kit. Note: This value is typically equal to or higher than the customer’s motor voltage rating.



RATED OUTPUT CURRENT (ID 2040) Set equal to the cell (output) current rating. Note: The output Hall Effects and burden resistors should be sized for the cell current rating.

General Note: The parameters discussed above are based on hardware used within the drive and on the design limits of drive components. These settings should not be changed in the field to match the conditions on the site unless hardware modifications have been made and approval from application engineering has been obtained.

Fault Name — Excessive Drive Losses A typical Harmony Drive has a full load efficiency in the range of 96.0 - 97.0%. It is at full load that the drive has maximum losses and hence it is this operating point that will be closest to the excessive losses threshold setting. If, during commissioning, the drive trips on an Excessive Drive Losses Fault, then the following steps may be followed to determine if the trip was a nuisance fault:

Corrective Action for Deficiencies

1.

Verify that the parameters listed above are correctly entered. Use VFD (project) drawings along with a visual inspection (if possible) to make the verification. A common error is made in entering the Output Current Rating. This menu entry should always be set equal to the Cell Current Rating.

2.

Run the drive to a speed-point at which measurable values of input and output, voltage and current are present.

3.

Use the table in the Startup Procedure chapter of the Harmony Manual to verify if the feedback signals on the System Interface Board (i.e. on test-points VMA, VMB, VMC, IMA, IMB, IMC, VIA, VIB, VIC, IIB and IIC) correspond to the values displayed by the drive.

4.

Manually verify that the Drive Losses are less than the threshold setting (for this type of drive and NXG software version) as listed in figure 1-1 and calculated in the following equations: Drive Losses = (Input Power - Output Power) (1) Trip Level = (Drive Losses - Input Threshold) (2) Input and Output Power can be read from the Keypad, ToolSuite or Debug Screen. In NXG software versions 2.50 and higher, the Drive Losses variable is available for display on the Keypad and ToolSuite.

5.

Increase speed (and load) to make sure that the Drive Losses are within the range of 2.5% - 4.5% of Rated Input Power (as defined in equation (1) above).

Note: Transformers rated above 5000 HP and those designed prior to summer of 2002 may have higher losses than those produced after July 2002. Drives with such units may have more than 3.5% losses at full load. Use of version 2.50 of NXG software will help if drive losses at full load are 5.0% or lower. If the measured system losses are believed to be higher than 5.0%, then discuss the issue with Application Engineering or Product Development. Comments

Internal Threshold

The internal threshold is a function of the rated drive input VA. Input VA is defined by the following parameters. •

Rated Input Voltage (2010) is the rated input voltage of the drive



Rated Input Current (2020) is the rated input current of the drive

For example, in Run State the internal threshold is given as: Internal Threshold (Watts) = 0.07 * Rated Drive Input VA =

* 1.7.4

0.07 * √3 * Rated Input Voltage * Rated Input Current

Note: For software versions 2.30 and 2.40, Air-Cooled and Liquid-Cooled Drives had different internal threshold settings. For versions 2.50 and higher, only one common set of threshold settings are used; these correspond to the settings for Air-Cooled Drives.

Current Scaler Adjustment in Harmony Drives with NXG Control

Summary: Current measurements are made on both the input and the output side of the Harmony Drive with NXG Control. CTs (or current transformers) are used on the input side while Hall Effect Transducers are used on the output side. In some drives, the current measurements may have an accuracy of less than 1% due to component tolerances. In such cases, the current scaler may be adjusted to obtain better than 1% accuracy on the measured currents. This document provides a procedure to estimate the value of input and output current scalers (ID 3030 and 3440). Adjustment of Current Scaler: When rated current is flowing (either on the input or output side), the expected voltage at the (corresponding) test point with NXG Control hardware is 3.536 volts rms, which is interpreted by the drive software as 1 PU. Any measured deviation from this nominal value can be compensated via the current scaler which is nominally set to 1.0.

Fault Reference for Harmony NXG

When a current equal to IMEASURED (in Amps rms) is flowing through the transducer, the current scaler can be adjusted to compensate for any current measurement error using the equation: Current scaler = 3.536 * IMEASURED / (VTP * IRATED) Where: Current scaler is the appropriate parameter for input or output 3.536 V is the nominal voltage on the test-point with rated current VTP is the measured value on the test-point with IMEASURED flowing through the transducer IRATED is the rated drive current (either on the input or output)

* 1.7.6

Note: IMEASURED (Amps rms) can be obtained using a current clamp or any similar measuring device.

Voltage Scaler Adjustment in Harmony Drives with NXG Control

Summary: Attenuator Resistors are used in Harmony Drives for scaling input and output side voltages. Two resistors are used to support the Medium Voltage (either on the input or the output). Since resistor values are available only as discrete values, the exact attenuation factor cannot be achieved for all voltage levels. In such cases, the voltage scaler may be adjusted to obtain better than 1% accuracy on the measured voltages. This document provides a procedure to estimate the value of input and output voltage scalers (ID 3040 and 3450).

*

Note: The input attenuator must be selected to match the input transformer nameplate rating. The output attenuator is typically selected to match the motor nameplate rating.

Adjustment of Voltage Scaler: The expected voltage at the test point with NXG Control hardware is 3.809 volts rms, which is interpreted by the drive software as 1 PU. Any measured deviation from this nominal value can be compensated via the voltage scaler, which is nominally set to 1.0. This adjustment is necessary for several reasons: first for tolerances in the chosen resistors, second for the use of standard values that do not match the calculation, and third for non-supported values of input voltages, which default to the 4160 V value. In any case, the voltage scaler (parameter ID 3040 for the input scaler and ID 3450 for the output scaler) can be adjusted to compensate for rated input voltage by the following equation: Voltage scaler = 3.809 / VTP

(3)

Where: Voltage scaler is the appropriate parameter for input or output 3.809 is the nominal voltage (rms) at rated voltage VTP is the measured value on the test point with rated voltage Where the voltage is not at nominal rated, or cannot be measured directly, and is not supported by the software, the voltage scaler can be approximated by substituting a calculated value based on the voltage divider formed by the selected resistor values. VTPC = Vmv * [√2 / √3] * [Rf / (R1 + R2 + Rf)]

(4)

Where: VTPC is the calculated nominal value expected for rated voltage and nominal resistor values Vmv is the nominal rated voltage

3.2 Cell Over Temperature Fault Name — Cell Over Temperature Displayed Message

3

Cell Over Temp Alarm Cell Over Temp Fault Each cell has an RTD installed to measure the temperature of the heatsink. The feedback is in the form of a PWM controlled signal sent back across the fiber link as a single bit with a 600Hz cycle rate. The modulator counts the number of active bits during this time period to retrieve the PWM duty cycle and determines the temperature based on this duty cycle. Duty cycle is nominally 0% at 74°C and 100% at 90°C. For HV Cells the duty cycle is 6% at 73.75 °C and 100% at 81.7°C. For 600 AP AFE and 750 AP cells the duty cycle is 0% at 56.63 °C and 100% at 73.37°C.

Description of Fault/Alarm

At the level set by parameter 2560 (Thermistor warn level), the temperature alarm is set after remaining at this level for half a second of hysteresis. At 80% duty cycle the temperature fault is set. Each cell has an RTD installed to measure the temperature of the heatsink. The feedback is in the form of a PWM controlled signal sent back across the fiber link as a single bit with a 600Hz cycle rate. The modulator counts the number of active bits during this time period to retrieve the PWM duty cycle and determines the temperature based on this duty cycle. Duty cycle is nominally 0% at 74°C and 100% at 90°C. At the level set by parameter 2560 (Thermistor warn level), the temperature alarm is set after remaining at this level for half a second of hysteresis. At 80% duty cycle the temperature fault is set.

Associated Parameters

Thermistor Warn level (2560) - sets the lower threshold of temperature (duty cycle) for the cell temperature alarm.

Hysteresis or Delay

Both the fault and alarm use hysteresis before being triggered. The hysteresis is 150 fault system samples or ½ second before an alarm is issued. Cell control board - creates a PWM signal in proportion to the thermistor feedback and broadcasts back to the controls through the fiber optic cable as part of the response data.

Data Source

Variables in Data Source

Modulator registers - determines the duty cycle based on the time base of the fiber optic communication and the temperature data bit logic level (counts high bits over a fixed cycle period of 600 Hz and stores the count in the register). “Thermistor warn level” (2560) sets the level of the thermistor at which the alarm level is triggered.

3.3 Cap Share Fault Name — Cap Share Displayed Message

3

Description of Fault/Alarm

Cap Share For the 460V, 630V and 690V cells only, the Capacitor configuration in the power cell is such that two capacitors are connected in series to support the voltage in the DC link of the cell (three in series with the 690V cells). Each capacitor in the series string is configured to share equally, to prevent over-voltaging any individual capacitor. To ensure that the capacitors are sharing properly, the voltages for each capacitor in the string are monitored by comparators. Should the difference of the voltages exceed a preset limit, the comparators issue a Cap Share fault. This is hardware initiated and cannot be changed. The fault is generated by the cell control board. A cap share failure can be destructive to the capacitors in the cell. They can either leak, blow a seal, or rupture, causing destructive damage. The cap share fault is usually generated during application of Medium Voltage power due to higher inrush currents. It is usually a sign that the capacitors have abnormally high initial leakage currents after only a few weeks in voltage free storage. Evidence shows that these leakage currents diminish to normal levels after a few minutes of operation. However, currents are high enough after initial inrush to imbalance capacitor banks sufficiently to generate “Cap Share Faults” and in some cases cap failures.

Power Fuse Blown

Description of Fault/Alarm

The power fuses supply the power to the cell DC link from a 3 phase secondary winding on the transformer. There is no direct fuse loss detection, so a combination of conditions must be used to detect this fault. The condition for this fault is a Cell DC bus low condition in conjunction with Medium Voltage applied (greater than 60% rated input voltage).

Associated Parameters

There are no parameters for the DC bus overvoltage. The “Input Voltage scaler” (3040) is used to scale the Medium voltage feedback. For more detail, see the “Medium Voltage Low” fault in Chapter 1.

Hysteresis or Delay

This fault has no delay or hysteresis.

3.6 Control Fuse Blown Fault Name — Control Fuse Blown Displayed Message

Control Fuse Blown

Description of Fault/Alarm

This fault is generated on the cell control board and is theoretically supposed to indicate that a control power fuse is blown. Based on the design of the board, however, this fault may never occur. The board is dual powered, both through the 3 phase rectifier from the control power fuses, and also from the DC bus. Thus when a fuse blows, the only indication is that the Vavail (Vavailable) okay signal from the cell goes low.

Potential Issues that affect the Fault Performance

Since the board is dual powered, the only way for the loss of power to the board to occur would be to lose all power, resulting in a loss of communications - a link fault. In practicality, this fault will never occur in any version prior to and including version 2.4. This will have to be investigated to see if any enhancement can be made using multiple signals to deduce the fault.

Corrective Action for Deficiencies

If this fault occurs it is probably a bad cell control board. The board should be replaced.

3

Displayed Message

IGBT OOS 2 IGBT OOS 3 IGBT OOS 4

Description of Fault/Alarm

The IGBT is a switching power transistor. If not driven completely into saturation (defined as having enough charge carriers in the gate drive to allow current to flow unabated), the losses in the device will quickly exceed design tolerances for thermal losses and current density, which could destroy the device. Therefore, the voltage across the device is measured to ensure that the value never exceeds the forward dropping voltage for a device fully turned on. If this voltage exceeds a threshold value established on the gate drive circuit, the cell is shut down along with the drive. The cell control board monitors this information and reports back to the DCR through the fiber optic channel to allow all cells to shut down.

3.9 DC Bus Fault Name — DC Bus DC Bus Low Warning Displayed Message

DC Bus Over Volt

3

DC Under Volt The DC bus is the link in each power cell between the input, 3-phase converter, and the output, single phase inverter. It is the source of the stored energy for the inverter and effectively isolates the input from the output sections. This is formed by a large capacitor bank with a voltage nominally designed for the rating or the cell, and that varies with input line condition and output load. The voltage level is set to a percentage of the nominal cell voltage. The three levels are determined by the nominal cell voltage and are used to protect the cells and the capacitors from damage.

Description of Fault/Alarm

The DC bus low warning - This is the first level warning that the voltage level of an individual cell has dropped below a level that can support full rated output from that cell. This level is set at approximately 72% of peak nominal DC bus voltage. For drives with 600 AP AFE and 750 AP cells, the drive will require precharging prior to the re-application of medium voltage. The DC bus over voltage - This is a fault that is used to protect the cells from an over voltage condition which could result in capacitor failure or damage to the IGBTs. Should the bus voltage exceed 140% of nominal DC bus voltage, the trip will occur. The DC under voltage trip - This is a fault condition in which the cell DC bus voltage drops below 61% of the nominal DC bus voltage. This fault is used to protect against loss of control of the cell control board.

Associated Parameters

3

Blocking Q3 Blocking Q4 Blocking Timeout

Description of Fault/Alarm

During cell diagnostics, and with the presence of Medium Voltage, the cells are checked for each of four IGBT’s blocking voltage. Across each IGBT is a comparator to check the voltage. With the cells disabled, each IGBT must exhibit a voltage greater than 75 volts across the device at least once during the allowed time period. Due to the possibility of AC voltage across the devices (with inherent zero-crossings), a maximum of a half-second is allowed to pass for the test to ensure that a minimum voltage exists to set the blocking comparators at least once. If for any reason the comparators are not set and the time for the test has expired for the individual cell, the individual IGBTs that failed the blocking test are marked as faulted. The failure to block voltage is usually a sign of a shorted IGBT and it generates a cell fault, which is logged. The Blocking Timeout is not implemented.

3

Switching Q3 Switching Q4 Switching Timeout During cell diagnostics and with the presence of Medium Voltage, and after a successful blocking test for each cell, the cells are then tested for switching operation.

Description of Fault/Alarm

First the cells are tested individually again for blocking, then each IGBT is switched on and the collapse of voltage is verified. At that point the IGBT is switched off and again tested for blocking. This is repeated for each of the four IGBTs in the cell. Since each IGBT must pass the blocking test both before and immediately after the switching test, a time limit is established for the entire sequence. The sequence that each device must pass is: blocking - not blocking (switched on) - blocking, in three successive responses in order to pass. This is to ensure that a lack of voltage across the IGBT is not inadvertently used to determine an actively switched-on device. Any devices that fail to pass this test are flagged as faulted during switching, on an individual basis, and the entire cell is determined to have failed. The Switching Timeout fault is not implemented.

3.14 Cell Fault / Modulator Fault Name — Cell Fault/Modulator Displayed Message

Description of Fault/Alarm

Cell Fault/Modulator All cell fault determination is based on a cell fault coming from the individual cell in Mode 0 (operation mode of the cell). When the bit is set, the modulator records the information in a fault register which is read during the fault routine. There are individual cell fault bits and individual link fault bits for every cell in the system and are grouped in registers in groups of six cells per register. Should any of these bits be set in a cell fault register, a corresponding bit is set in a master fault register in the modulator. This hierarchy speeds cell fault detection. For speed, the fault routine needs only check the master fault register for any cell faults. If a bit is set for a cell fault in the master fault register, the cell diagnostic routine is called to determine the exact nature of the cell fault.

3

During the cell diagnostic routine, each cell is read to determine its fault status. Should all the faults be checked and no fault be found (by checking the individual cell’s fault bit and checking the other diagnostic cell modes, one, two, and the switching and blocking of mode three), then the source of the fault cannot be determined. At this point, the fault was either a transitory signal that didn’t get properly latched in the modulator, or the modulator malfunctioned. Since the fault is most likely an issue with the modulator board, the fault indicates the fault as such - Cell Fault/Modulator. Associated Parameters

3.15 Bad Cell Data Fault Name — Bad Cell Data Displayed Message

Bad Cell Data When the cell communicates back to the modulator in the master/slave protocol, it always echoes the cell mode in the response message. This is a code - one of four modes - determined by the two least significant bits in the message byte.

3

If the cell is in normal running mode and not cell diagnostics (Mode 0 - both bits are zero) and the response is non-zero, this is a fault. Description of Fault/Alarm

Also if the cell is in diagnostics mode and either the response mode does not equal the sent mode, or the response, in a non-zero mode, returns the link fault bit set true, then this is a fault. Both of these faults show that either the modulator is malfunctioning or, more likely, the cell control board is malfunctioning. In earlier cell control boards, there was a delay of one or two responses before the mode bits changed due to timing on the cell control board. All boards exhibiting this behavior have been removed or replaced.

None required if the cell alarms are real. A change in operating parameters may be required to prevent a fault from occurring.

Comments

An overtemp warning might be the early indicator of a bad cell or an impending cooling system failure.

3.18 Cell Differential Temperature Fault Name — Cell Differential Temperature Displayed Message

Description of Fault/Alarm

Cell Diff Temp Alarm Cell Diff Temp Fault

3

600 AP AFE and 750 AP contain sensors that monitor the inlet and outlet water temperature to the heat sink within the cell. This difference between the inlet and outlet water temperature is passed from each cell control board to the modulator. The main controller reads this difference in temperature and compares the value to the AP diff temp fault lvl parameter (2596). When the difference between the inlet and outlet water temperature exceeds the value of parameter (2596), a Cell Diff Temp Alarm will occur. When the difference between the inlet and outlet water temperature exceeds the value of parameter (2596) by more than 2°C, a Cell Diff Temp Fault will occur.

Associated Parameters

AP diff temp fault lvl (2596) sets the point at which a cell will create a AP diff temp alarm. The fault level is 2°C greater than this value.

Hysteresis or Delay

The Cell Diff Temp Alarm and Faults have no delay or hysteresis.

Data Source

Inlet and outlet thermistors, Cell control board, and Modulator.

Variables in Data Source

Improper Cell Type This fault occurs if six-step cell is selected (750V AP 4Q) and cells do not configure properly for any of the following reasons:

3



Not a 4-quad (regen) type cell



DSP does not acknowledge six-step enabled



EPLD does not acknowledge six-step enabled

The message will display the cell in question, followed by the “Improper Cell Type” message. Description of Fault/Alarm

If Fast Bypass (2600) is enabled, the cell will be bypassed. Provided enough cells are remaining, the drive will initialize with no faults. Should there not be enough cells to run, the drive will not bypass the remaining cells and will remain faulted. This is standard fast bypass operation. If not enough cells remain to run in six-step four-quadrant control, and the cells are not faulted for any other reason, the cell type can be reconfigured to “750 V AP” type and the drive can then be operated in two-quadrant control with no cells faulted, if no other cell faults exist. Otherwise, the drive cannot be run due to excessive cell faults. Re-configuration will not be automatic.

Corrective Action for Deficiencies



Excessive line voltage perturbation



Improper tuning of 600 AFE cells



Incorrect shift angle for 750 AP 4Q cells, failure or an input line reactor (600 AP AFE cells)



Bad hall effect



Failure of cell control board



Failure of an input IGBT



Improper gating of an input IGBT

Check inductance of 600 AP AFE input line reactors and replace if incorrect. If the fault repeatedly occurs with random cells, and the cells are 600 AP AFE, then the current loop tuning parameters may be incorrect. If the fault repeatedly occurs with several 750 AP 4Q cells, check the setting of the “Regen Shift Angle” (2625). Check for loose connections Check hall effects, gate drives and cell control board

Comments

For 600 AP AFE, 750 AP, and 750 AP 4Q cells, excessive line transients can cause currents in excess of the over-current setting parameter ID (2621). In these instances, there may be no equipment failure or tuning problem. In addition, the IOC processing is so fast that an out of saturation fault for an input IGBT may never be detected. See “IGBT Out of Saturation” fault (Section 3.8 and Section 4.2) for further guidance.

Displayed Message

IGBT OOS 11 IGBT OOS 12 IGBT OOS 13 IGBT OOS 14 IGBT OOS 15 IGBT OOS 16

Description of Fault/Alarm

The IGBT is a switching power transistor. If not driven completely into saturation (defined as having enough charge carriers in the gate drive to allow current to flow unabated), the losses in the device will quickly exceed design tolerances for thermal losses and current density, which could destroy the device. Therefore, the voltage across the device is measured to ensure that the value never exceeds the forward dropping voltage for a device fully turned on. If this voltage exceeds a threshold value established on the gate drive circuit, the cell is shut down along with the drive. The cell control board monitors this information and reports back to the DCR through the fiber optic channel to allow all cells to shut down.

Fault Name — AFE Current Deviation

Potential Issues that affect the Fault Performance

Failed line reactors will cause the same cell location to fault. Bad Hall effect transducers can also cause this fault. However, when this fault occurs consistently for several different cells, cell current tuning may be incorrect OR the reactive current demand to the cell is too great for the cell to produce at the present line conditions. The “AFE Sat. filter” parameter controls an algorithm that rolls back the reactive current demand to the cell so that “AFE Current Deviation” cell faults do not occur because of high line conditions. Raising the value of parameter 3046 will cause less reactive current demand to the cells at high line but with the loss of some reactive current capability. In addition, a significant line voltage imbalance (>1.5%) can also cause “AFE Current Deviation” cell faults, especially when combined with high line reactive current generation.

4

Check inductance of the input line reactors and replace if incorrect. Check Hall effect transducers and cell control board. Corrective Action for Deficiencies

Study line conditions and reactive current demand at the time of the fault. Adjust “AFE Sat. filter” parameter ID 3046 as necessary. Verify current loop tuning parameters are set correctly.

Over Speed Alarm Over Speed Fault

Description of Fault/Alarm

This fault and alarm are based on the absolute value of the motor speed as compared to the Overspeed limit parameter (ID 1170). The fault occurs if the motor speed is greater than Overspeed Limit, and the alarm occurs if the motor speed is greater than 95% of Overspeed Limit.

Associated Parameters

Overspeed (Menu ID 1170), Motor Frequency (Menu ID 1020)

Hysteresis or Delay

Faults have no delay or hysteresis. Alarms use hysteresis before being triggered. Before version 2.3, the alarm hysteresis was 30 fault system samples or 1/10 second before an alarm was issued. After version 2.3, the alarm hysteresis is now 150 fault system samples or ½ second before an alarm is issued.

Data Source

The Motor Speed is derived from a software based Phase Lock Loop (PLL). The PLL gains are calculated internally and cannot be changed via the menu system.

Variables in Data Source

The PLL has the most impact on the Motor Speed. Since the PLL parameters are calculated, the only variables in the data source are the voltage and current measurements from the drive output. If these measurements are scaled incorrectly or if there are offsets in the measurements, they will have an impact on the Motor Speed calculation.

SOP Flags that affect Operation

“OverSpeedAlarmEn_O” enables the overspeed alarm. “OverSpeedAlarm_I” is the overspeed alarm indicator, set true when speed is greater than 95% of trip point (Menu ID 1170). “OverSpeedFault_I” is the overspeed fault indicator, set true when speed is greater than trip point (Menu ID 1170).

System Location of Data Source

This is a derived value from a software calculation. The sensor measurements of the output voltage and current hall effects will have an impact on the Motor Speed. The location of the output sensors is in the Input/Output Cabinet of most Harmony Drives.

6.3 Motor Thermal Overload Fault Name — Motor Thermal Overload Displayed Message

Mtr Therm Over Load 1 Mtr Therm Over Load 2 Mtr Therm Over Ld Fault Thermal overload (TOL) protection of the motor can be set up using the menus shown in the Associated Parameter section. The Overload select parameter allows one of three options to be selected for motor protection.

Description of Fault/Alarm

The first model, which is called “constant,” is based on the current flowing into the motor. A Motor Thermal Overload Alarm 1 is issued as a warning to the user (of an impending overload fault) when the motor current exceeds the Overload pending parameter. When the drive current exceeds the “overload” setting, Motor Thermal Overload Alarm 2 is issued and a thermal trip timer is started. If this condition is present for a period greater than the time set in the “Overload timeout” parameter, the drive will trip and annunciate the event with Motor Thermal Overload Fault. It should be noted that both the alarms (1 and 2) have to be enabled through the SOP for the drive to display those conditions. The second and third thermal models, “straight inverse time” and “inverse time with thresholds,” respectively, use a software motor thermal model to estimate motor temperature. For these options, the “overload pending” and “overload” settings represent the motor temperature (in percent of rated) limits at which an overload warning and trip are generated. A brief description of the thermal model follows this table. “Overload select” (Menu ID 1130) selects the overload trip algorithm. Constant (fixed current-based TOL), straight inverse time or Inv Time w/ speed derating. “Overload pending” (Menu ID 1139) sets the thermal overload level at which a warning is issued. This is based on total current for “constant” and rated thermal capacity for inverse time.

Associated Parameters

“Overload” (Menu ID 1140) sets the motor thermal overload trip level at which the timeout counter starts. “Overload timeout” (Menu ID 1150) sets the time for the overload trip. This should be minimal for the inverse time algorithms since it is directly related to temperature. “Speed Derate Curve” (Menu ID 1151) sets allowable motor load as a function of speed. “Maximum Load Inertia” (Menu ID 1159) sets the maximum load inertia that the motor can line start without exceeding maximum temperature. This affects the rated thermal capacity of the motor.

Note: For all modes, the heating in the motor is increased by the square of the current above the motor ratings. Therefore a setting of 120% produces an increase of 44% more thermal energy into the motor – [(1.2)2 – (1.0)2 = 0.44 increase (PU)]. Constant Mode

The first model, which is called “constant,” is based on the total current flowing into the motor. A Motor Thermal Overload Alarm 1 is issued as a warning to the user (of an impending overload fault) when the motor current exceeds the “overload pending” parameter. When the drive current exceeds the “overload” setting, Motor Thermal Overload Alarm 2 is issued and a thermal trip timer is started. If this condition is present for a period greater than the time set in the “overload timeout” parameter, the drive will trip and annunciate the event as Motor Thermal Overload Fault. The Constant Mode might be appropriate for a motor having a separate blower, and operating in a constant ambient temperature, so that it has constant cooling capability regardless of speed.

*

Note: Since this method uses a single threshold level, it cannot distinguish between a relatively minor overload condition and a major one. Therefore this method is not recommended as the default. For most applications, the best protection is from the mode - Inverse Time with Speed derating.

The second and third thermal models, which are called “straight inverse time” and “inverse time with thresholds,” use a software motor thermal model to estimate motor heating. See Figure 6-1. For these options, the “overload pending” and “overload” settings represent the motor thermal mass limits (in percent of rated motor thermal mass allowance or capacity) at which the overload warning and trip are generated. This model is based on NEMA ratings as described below. A brief description of the thermal model follows.

Speed derate curve Figure 6-1: Block Diagram of Motor Thermal Model

The motor model estimates motor temperature based on the net heat generated in the motor and its thermal mass – the amount of thermal energy input to the motor before overheating. This is generally a function of motor losses and how well a motor can cool itself, or be cooled through external means. A block diagram of the implementation is shown in Figure 6-1. The heat generated in the motor is estimated from the stator voltages, currents, and motor parameters, while an estimate of the heat dissipated by the motor due to motor cooling, is made from the allowable motor current (more on this in the following paragraph). The motor loss calculation also includes the losses generated with Dual-Frequency Braking. The thermal mass (shown as MTH) of the motor (or its heat capacity) is determined from the maximum load inertia listed in Table 20-1 of NEMA Standard MG-1 1993 Part 20.42. The user has the option of entering a known value of max load inertia as well (which can be obtained from the manufacturer). The plot in Figure 6-2 shows results from an experimental evaluation of the software thermal model with the “straight inverse time” option (fixed 100% Motor Current rating) for various levels of drive current. This curve is plotted at constant rated speed, and the threshold is fixed for calculating thermal capacity. If the “speed curve” were plotted for this mode, it would appear as a straight line fixed at 100% over the entire speed range. A 4kV, 300 Hp motor was used for this test. The experimental data shows the time taken for the estimated motor temperature to go from rated temperature to 120% of rated. This curve is quite conservative as compared to a Class 10 TOL that trips at 280 sec with 150% current and at 630 sec with 125% current.

6 Figure 6-2: Drive Current (In Percent Of Motor Rated Current) Versus Time Taken For Motor Temperature * The data was measured with the “straight inverse time” option with the motor operating at full speed.

If “straight inverse time” protection is chosen, the motor model thermal curve is based on the Full-load current rating of the motor throughout the entire speed range.

*

Note: Since this mode uses no derating for reduced speed operation, this setting should only be used for quadratic loads (minimal torque requirements at low speed) or for when the motor is equipped with a constant-speed cooling fan. For constant loads (loading throughout the speed range), “inverse time with speed derating” should be used.

The thermal model is based on motor ratings to attempt to estimate the heating of the motor, where the main thermal input is due to motor losses in direct relationship to the total current (stator and rotor losses). The balance of heat storage (thermal input) and heat loss (cooling) determine the motor temperature, and is known as Thermal Capacity.

*

Note: This algorithm attempts to estimate this heating, but is an estimate at best, and is not intended to replace external motor thermal monitoring to protect the motor in critical applications.

As the thermal input exceeds the thermal output, the temperature of the motor increases. If this continues unabated, the motor will overheat. Therefore two levels of thermal capacity are established: one to allow for early warning and corrective action, and another for when a fault trip is impending. The control software also follows the curve for cooling when the thermal input becomes lower than the thermal output, such that a lower thermal input produces faster cooling until a new equilibrium is established and the temperature is maintained. If the user’s preference is to enter a fixed value of an allowable current level other than 100% (as with the “straight inverse time” option), the speed-derating curve can be modified to have the same desired level for all the breakpoints, thereby eliminating the speed derating and allowing a higher level of operation. This is not recommended unless the motor has a higher service factor, and a constant speed separate blower.

Inverse time with speed derating

The inverse time curve with speed derating is a special case of inverse time protection. Since it derates the maximum motor rating with respect to speed, it provides the best motor protection of the three modes, especially at starting and for low speed operation. For motors without separate blowers, this is the recommended setting. If Inverse time with speed derating is used, the allowable current level used in the model is determined from the speed-derating curve entered through the keypad. This curve requires the user to enter allowable motor loads for various speed breakpoints. The default-derating curve provides breakpoints for a quadratic cooling curve (and is shown in Figure 6-3). The motor manufacturer normally provides data for this curve.

This algorithm is complex in that it provides a family of curves similar to the straight inverse time mode, but with the maximum point of each curve at the operational speed, defined by the max motor load current at the speed taken from the Speed derating curve.

*

Note: The Inverse time with speed derating is the recommended setting for most applications, especially when high starting torque is needed or low speed protection is required.

*

Note: The inverse time algorithms will only work correctly if the proper Max Load Inertia is used. If this is known from the manufacturer, then this should be entered into parameter “Maximum Load Inertia” (ID 1159). If this value is zero, the NXG software will attempt to calculate the value based on the “Motor kW Rating” (1010) and the synchronous speed (based on Motor Frequency (1020) and Full Load Speed (1030)). If the values are outside of the range of the NEMA Table 20-1 from NEMA Standard MG-1 (See Table 6-1) in either HP or Synchronous Speed, then the maximum value for the synchronous speed column must be used, but must be converted from lb-ft² units to kg-m² units by multiplying the table number by 23.73. The result should then be entered into the Maximum Load Inertia parameter.

6.4 Output Phase Imbalance Fault Name — Output Phase Imbalance Displayed Message

Output Phase Imbal

Description of Fault/Alarm

Output Phase Imbalance is fixed as an alarm. This alarm detects the condition that an imbalance exists in the three output phases. This may be tied in with a neutral current path or ground fault condition, or may be due to shorted windings in the motor. The Drive software calculates value known as the negative sequence vector. Under normal balance load conditions, the value is zero. If value increases, it indicates the three phase output is becoming unbalanced. If this value exceeds the limit setting “Phase Imbalance Limit” (Menu ID 1244), an alarm is asserted. This condition is ignored during the “Auto Tuning” and “Magnetizing” state of the Drive.

Associated Parameters

“Phase Imbalance Limit” (Menu ID 1244) determines the alarm assertion point.

Hysteresis or Delay

Faults have no delay or hysteresis. Alarms use hysteresis before being triggered. Before version 2.3, the alarm hysteresis was 30 fault system samples or 1/10 second before an alarm was issued. After version 2.3, the alarm hysteresis is now 150 fault system samples or ½ second before an alarm is issued.

Data Source

The fault/alarm algorithm uses the derived negative sequence currents. The current sensors are hall effect sensors located on phases B and C of the Output/Motor cables.

Variables in Data Source

Incorrect selection of the hall effect sensors for the drive. Incorrect power source for powering the hall effect sensors.

SOP Flags that affect Operation

“OutputPhaseImbalance_I” indicates output phase imbalance condition.

System Location of Data Source

This is a derived value from a software calculation. The sensor measurements of the output voltage and current hall effects will have an impact on the Motor Speed. The location of the output sensors is in the Input/Output Cabinet of most Harmony Drives.

6.6 Output Ground Fault Fault Name — Output Ground Fault Displayed Message

Output Ground Fault

Description of Fault/Alarm

Output Ground Fault is an Alarm. Refer to figure 6-4. The NXG software calculates the motor neutral voltage (Vgnd). The variables used are described below. Y0 represents the instantaneous volt-seconds on the motor neutral. Y0DC is the average (or DC component) value of Y0. Typically, this component is quite small and does not affect the estimated value of ground voltage, Vgnd. Y0AC is the (filtered) AC component of Y0. Vgnd is the motor neutral voltage; the equation converts volt-seconds to voltage in per-unit. Frequency represents the stator frequency that is measured (separately) by the control. DC gain is the dc-gain of the integrators and is used to convert Y0DC (in dc volt-seconds) to motor volts. The dc-gain is fixed by the hardware circuitry used in the System Interface Board or System I/O Board (NXGII).

6

Associated Parameters

The Ground Fault Limit parameter (ID 1245) allows the user to adjust the threshold level at which the control issues a Ground Fault Alarm. A comparison of the calculated ground voltage, Vgnd, with the Ground Fault Limit parameter is performed in software to determine a Ground Fault. Default value of this parameter is 5.0%. The user can set the filter time constant of the “Low Pass Filter” through parameter ID 1246. Default value of this parameter is 0.017sec, approximately corresponding to one cycle of 60Hz.

Hysteresis or Delay

Faults have no delay or hysteresis. Alarms use hysteresis before being triggered. Before version 2.3, the alarm hysteresis was 30 fault system samples or 1/10 second before an alarm was issued. After version 2.3, the alarm hysteresis is now 150 fault system samples or ½ second before an alarm is issued.

6.12 Minimum Speed Trip Fault Name — Minimum Speed Trip

6

Displayed Message

Minimum Speed Trip

Description of Fault/Alarm

If motor speed is below the “Zero Speed” (Menu ID 2200) for 15 seconds, an alarm or fault is asserted. If the “Zero Speed” (Menu ID 2200) is set to zero, the alarm/fault is disabled.

Associated Parameters

“Zero Speed” (Menu ID 2200) sets the threshold for the trip point. If set to zero, the alarm/fault is disabled.

Hysteresis or Delay

Faults have no delay or hysteresis. Alarms use hysteresis before being triggered. Before version 2.3, the alarm hysteresis was 30 fault system samples or 1/10 second before an alarm was issued. After version 2.3, the alarm hysteresis is now 150 fault system samples or ½ second before an alarm is issued.

Data Source

The Motor Speed is derived from a software based Phase Lock Loop (PLL). The PLL gains are calculated internally and cannot be changed via the menu system.

Variables in Data Source

The PLL has the most impact on the Motor Speed. Since the PLL parameters are calculated, the only variables in the data source are the voltage and current measurements from the drive output. If these measurements are scaled incorrectly or if there are offsets in the measurements, they will have an impact on the Motor Speed calculation.

SOP Flags that affect Operation

“LowMotorSpeedFault_I” indicates that low motor speed condition exists. “LowMotorSpeedFaultEn_O” enables this fault/ alarm. “LowMotorSpeedFaultWn_O” changes the fault to an alarm.

System Location of Data Source

This is a derived value from a software calculation. The sensor measurements of the output voltage and current hall effects will have an impact on the Motor Speed. The location of the output sensors is in the Input/Output Cabinet of most Harmony Drives.

Potential Issues that affect the Fault Performance

8.4 Loss of Signal Fault Name — Loss of Signal Displayed Message

“Loss of Signal ##” - where ## is equal to 1 to 24, or “Int AI# Loss of Signal” - where # is equal to 1 to 3. These faults / alarms are used to indicate a loss of analog input signal. If an analog input is selected as the source for one of the drive inputs: “Analog Input #1,” “Analog Input #2,” “Analog Input #3,” “Analog Input #4,” “Analog Input #5,” “Auxiliary Input #1,” or “Auxiliary Input #2,” a loss of signal condition occurs when the selected analog input’s input current goes below that drive input’s associated “Loss Point Threshold” parameter.

Description of Fault/Alarm

Further, if the associated drive input is not currently controlling the motor when a loss of signal occurs, an alarm is issued. If the associated drive input is currently controlling the motor when a loss of signal occurs, an action will take place corresponding to the drive input’s associated “Loss of Signal Action.” If an analog input is not selected as a source for one of the drive inputs but it is selected as a source for a comparator, a loss of signal action is enabled via the SOP. Further, the loss of signal action (fault or alarm) is determined by the SOP. For analog inputs that meet these criteria, the loss of signal set point is fixed at 3 ma.

8 Associated Parameters

See Table 8-1 at the end of this chapter.

Hysteresis or Delay

Faults have no delay or hysteresis. Alarms use hysteresis before being triggered. Before version 2.3, the alarm hysteresis was 30 fault system samples or 1/10 second before an alarm was issued. After version 2.3, the alarm hysteresis is now 150 fault system samples or ½ second before an alarm is issued.

11

Displayed Message

Cell Count Mismatch

Description of Fault/Alarm

The number of cells determined to be in the hardware configuration does not match the number of cells entered as a parameter. The modulator board counts the number of cells responding after a global reset, and uses that number counted, fills any missing cells in a rank with at least one cell, fills in ranks when a cell appears beyond the missing cells, and utilizes bypass information to determine the entire cell configuration. If it does not agree with the parameter times 3 (3 cells in each rank), a fault is issued and the drive will not run until these numbers agree.

Associated Parameters

Installed cells/phase (2530). This entered number times three is the total expected cell count.

Hysteresis or Delay

Faults have no delay or hysteresis. Alarms use hysteresis before being triggered. Before version 2.3, the alarm hysteresis was 30 fault system samples or 1/10 second before an alarm was issued.

12.1 Modulator Watchdog Fault Name — Modulator Watchdog Displayed Message

Modulator Watchdog Flt Whenever the Modulator issues a drive enable to the cells, which is a permissive to switch the IGBTs, the watchdog on the modulator board is enabled. The watchdog ensures that the commands to the modulator are updated on a regular basis.

Description of Fault/Alarm

The update to the modulator is based on the carrier and the number of cells. This determines the sampling rate of the drive software, which ranges from approximately 3000 Hz to 6000Hz. If a new set of values is not written to the modulator within four sampling rate periods, the watchdog assumes that the drive software is no longer responding and shuts down the drive enable to the cells, disabling their output simultaneously, and sets a watchdog timeout flag in the modulator master fault register. This is sampled by the software and logged as a fault if any of the processes are still operational in the drive software. Carrier frequency (3580)

Associated Parameters

Installed cells/phase (2530) These determine the update sampling rate only.

Hysteresis or Delay

Faults have no delay or hysteresis. Alarms use hysteresis before being triggered. Before version 2.3, the alarm hysteresis was 30 fault system samples or 1/10 second before an alarm was issued.
