•
Softstart resistor
•
Contactors, MCBs and overload
•
Switching frequency filter (optional)
•
RFI filter (optional)
•
Varistors
•
Fuses
N
The Regen inductor and softstart resistor duty cycle is very arduous. Therefore, correct component selection is critical. The most sensitive aspects
are line-inductor linearity, saturation current and resistor-energy pulse rating. Only inductors and softstart resistors as specified in this Installation
Guide should be used.
5.1
Motoring drive
Unidrive in Open Loop, Closed Loop or Servo mode. Any software version.
This controls the motor by converting the DC bus voltage to a variable voltage, variable frequency supply. Power flow is between the DC bus and the
motor. There are no AC supply connections.
5.2
Regen drive
Unidrive in Regen mode. (Must be software version 2.10.04 or higher).
The Regen drive converts the AC supply to a regulated DC voltage. It also provides bi-directional power flow and sinusoidal input currents.
5.3
Regen inductor
The Regen inductor supports the difference between the PWM voltage from the Regen drive and sinusoidal voltage from the supply.
N
Regen inductors are special parts. Under no circumstances must a part be used other than those listed in Table 5-1.
