PM250 Power Modules, frame sizes FSC to FSF
PM250 Power Modules are suitable for many applications in
general machinery construction. Any braking energy is directly
fed back into the line supply (four quadrant applications – a
braking chopper is not required).
The PM250 Power Module features an absolutely unique tech-
nology – Efficient Infeed Technology. This feature provides the
ability to feed energy back into the supply system in the gener-
ator mode (electronic braking) so that the energy is not wasted
in a braking resistor. This saves space in the control cabinet. The
time-consuming process of dimensioning the braking resistor
and the expense of the extra wiring are eliminated. Furthermore,
heat losses in the control cabinet are reduced.
Additional information is provided in chapter Highlights,
section Efficient Infeed Technology.
Further, the innovative circuit design reduces the line harmonics.
There is no need to use an optional line reactor at the supply
infeed. This saves space and costs for engineering and procure-
ment.
The permissible cable lengths between inverter and motor
are limited. Longer cables can be used if output reactors are
connected
(see section "Load-side power components")
.
Frame sizes FSD to FSF of the PM250 Power Modules are avail-
able both with as well as without integrated line filter class A.
For frame size FSC of the PM250 Power Module with an inte-
grated line filter class A, an additional base filter of class B is
available for achieving class B
(see section "Line-side power
components")
.
The PM250 Power Module is also designed for safety-oriented
applications. In conjunction with a fail-safe Control Unit, the drive
can be transformed into a Safety Integrated Drive
(see section
"Control Units")
.
The PM250 Power Modules with integrated line filter class A are
suitable for connection to TN supply systems. Power Modules
without integrated line filter can be connected to grounded
TN/TT systems and non-grounded IT systems.
Note:
Shield plates and shield connection kits are available. These can
be used in the wiring installation for the Control Units and
Power Modules to ensure that it complies with EMC guidelines.
For further information, see Shield connection kits and shield
plates for Control Units and Power Modules in section
Supplementary system components.
