  • IOMM Starter 3

    General

    These starters are completely automatic and require no operator intervention (other than clearing and resetting faults) to perform their function of providing a controlled connection of the compressor motor to the power supply. The Wye-Delta and solid-state starters have many similar software characteristics and are discussed together in their operating section. However, some parameters and data are different. Where this occurs, separate tables and figures are provided. The low voltage (200-600 volts) starters are characterized by their control software, known as “D3 Control”. Certain electrical operating data for these low voltage starters is transmitted to the chiller and can be viewed on the operator touch screen if the “Full Metering Option” has been ordered. See page 27 for details. Medium and high voltage (2300-7200 volts) starters share common software known as “Micro II Control”, not to be confused with the McQuay MicroTech II™ chiller control system.

    Variable Frequency Drives While known and specified for their ability to control compressor motor speed for efficiency enhancement, VFDs also perform starting and motor protection functions. They are only available for 3/60/460-480 service.

    VFDs are available only from McQuay and when purchased as part of the original chiller purchase. Installation and operation are covered in McQuay manual IOMM VFD.

    Basic Electrical Terms Locked rotor amps (LRA): The amount of current that a specific motor will draw at start-up, when full voltage is applied across the line. The LRA may be 6 to 8 times FLA, or possibly higher in some cases.

    Inrush current: The amount of current that a specific motor and starter combination will draw during start-up. Normal inrush current will be substantially less than LRA for all starter types, except for across-the-line starters.

    Full load amps (FLA): The maximum amps the motor is designed for.

    Rated load amps (RLA): Actual amperage that the motor draws for a specific application. Centrifugal compressor motors operate at a RLA significantly below their maximum full load amps. RLA is used to determine electrical component sizing such as wire size and disconnect switches.

    Starting torque: Minimum torque required to begin the motor’s rotation. Bypass contactor: Contactors that bypass auto-transformers, reactors, or SCRs, and allow full power to reach the motor directly.

    Interrupting capacity: The maximum fault current that a circuit breaker or fused disconnect can successfully interrupt. As the rating increases, the construction becomes heavier duty. For disconnect switches with fuses, the rating is based on 0 to 600 volts. For circuit breakers, the voltage and amperage relationship is considered with interrupting capacity decreasing as voltage increases. Withstand rating: There is a period of time that the short circuit current passes to the shorted circuit before the protection device can open. This time can be as long as 0.020 seconds (one cycle). The withstand rating of a starter is the maximum short circuit current that it can pass safely without emitting sparks or debris. Phase amps: The current draw inside the delta connection of a wye-delta motor winding. It is equal to 0.577 x RLA of the motor for a specific load. Open transition: A reduced voltage starter characteristic occurring when the motor is temporarily disconnected from power at the time the starter changes from the starting mode to the final running mode. A second smaller inrush spike will occur. McQuay does not recommend use of this type of starter. Closed transition: A reduced voltage starter characteristic when the motor is NOT temporarily disconnected from the line during the transition from starting mode to operating mode. The electrical load is transferred to resistors during the transition phase and the second inrush spike is suppressed.

    Installation Mounting Arrangements Low voltage starters can be factory-mounted with power and control wiring factory-installed or they can be free-standing, requiring field mounting remote from the unit and field-wiring of power and control wiring. Because of dimension restrictions for shipping, some “factory-mounted” starters for large chillers are shipped separate from the unit. Mounting supports are on the unit and preassembled cable kits are provided. Mounting and wiring on site are the customer’s responsibility and can be subcontracted to McQuay Factory Service if desired. Medium voltage starters and some size low voltage starters on WSC 100 through 126 are only available for free-standing applications. Low voltage starters can be supplied in several different mounting arrangements depending on the chiller size and starter type. See Table 1 for available arrangements. • Factory-Mounted (optional): The starter is mounted on the chiller unit with the back of

    the starter against the motor terminal box and wired directly to the motor. This arrangement is only available on WSC/WDC 063, 079, or 087 units (cover photograph). On models WSC/WDC 048/050, the starter is factory-mounted on the front of the chiller unit and connected to the motor with conduit and cable.

    • Free-standing (standard): Floor-mounted, separate from the chiller unit, and field wired to the compressor motor. This is available on all units and is the only starter arrangement available for WDC/WCC 100 and 126 dual compressor units.

    • Brackets and cable (optional): Starters for WSC 100 and 126 single compressor units may be shipped separately from the chiller unit and furnished with mounting brackets and interconnecting cables for field mounting and connection by others. This option must be clearly specified when chillers are ordered since brackets are welded onto the evaporator during its construction.

    Receiving and Setting Since factory-mounted starters are mounted and wired at the factory, this section will only apply to free-standing units.

    The unit should be inspected immediately after receipt for possible damage.

    All McQuay centrifugal starters are shipped FOB factory and all claims for handling and shipping damage are the responsibility of the consignee.

    Extreme care must be used when rigging the starter to prevent damage. See the certified dimension drawings included in the job submittal for the center of gravity of the unit. Consult the local McQuay sales office for assistance if the drawings are not available.

    The starter can be lifted by fastening the rigging hooks to the four lifting eyes located on the top of the unit.

    Location and Mounting Clearance The starter must be mounted on a level concrete or steel base and must be located to provide adequate service. Local codes or the National Electric Code (NEC) can require more clearance in and around electrical components and must be checked.

    Mounting Make sure that the floor or structural support is adequate to support the full weight of the unit.

    Standard NEMA 1 and NEMA 12 starters must be installed indoors in an area that is not exposed to direct water spray. Do not install in areas where the ambient temperature falls below 32°F (0°C) or exceeds 104°F (40°C) enclosed, or 122°F (50°C) open unless this was noted at the time of order placement and special precautions were taken to protect against these abnormal temperatures.

    Heatsink temperatures can run as high as 158°F (70°C) during normal operation. Do not mount the starter in contact with any material that cannot accept this heat. The starter must be mounted with the heat sink fins oriented vertically in an area that will not experience excessive shock or vibration.

    Ventilation Requirements Provisions should be provided in the starter enclosure to ensure that the temperature inside the enclosure never rises above 122°F (50°C) or the starter could be damaged or the life of the starter could be reduced. As a general rule of thumb the following ventilation guidelines should be followed. These values are for starters with bypass. Bypassed starters generally do not require ventilation.

  • IOMM Starter 7

    Safety Precautions Electrical codes require that all equipment (starter, motor, operator station, etc.) be properly grounded. An incoming disconnect must be locked open before wiring or servicing the starter, motor, or other related equipment. The equipment must only be serviced by qualified personnel fully familiar with the equipment.

    The opening of the branch circuit protective device may be an indication that a fault current has been interrupted. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, current carrying parts and other components of the starter should be inspected and replaced if damaged.

    Equipment is at line voltage when AC power is connected. Pressing the Stop push-button on the chiller control panel does not remove AC mains potential. All phases must be disconnected before it is safe to work on machinery or touch motor terminals and control equipment parts.

    Power Factor Capacitors, Surge Capacitors and Lightning Arrestors These devices MUST NOT be used with solid state starters. The SCR’s in the starter will be damaged by the di/dt levels created.

    On wye-delta starters, they are connected between the starter and the motor.

    Power Wiring

    Power wiring between the starter and the compressor motor terminals is field supplied and installed on units with remote-mounted, free-standing starters. See the field wiring diagram on page 16.

    Wiring, fuse and wire size must be in accordance with the National Electric Code (NEC). Standard NEMA motor starters require modification to meet McQuay specifications. Refer to McQuay Specification R35999901.

    CAUTION

    Important: Voltage unbalance not to exceed 2% with a resultant current unbalance of 6 to 10 times the voltage unbalance per NEMA MG-1, 1998

    Standard. This is an important restriction that must be adhered to.

    WARNING

    Qualified and licensed electricians must perform wiring. Shock hazard exists.

    Refer to Figure 5 on page 16 for power wiring connections.

    Power wiring to compressors must be in proper phase sequence. Motor rotation is set up for clockwise rotation facing the lead end with phase sequence of 1-2-3. Care must be taken that the proper phase sequence is carried through the starter to compressor. With the phase sequence of 1-2-3 and L1 connected to T1 and T6, L2 connected to T2 and T4, and L3 connected to T3 and T5, rotation is proper. See diagram in terminal box cover.

    The McQuay start-up technician will check the phase sequence. Note: Do not make final connections to motor terminals until wiring has been checked and approved by a McQuay technician.

    CAUTION

    Connections to terminals must be made with copper lugs and copper wire.

    Under no circumstances should a compressor be brought up to speed unless proper sequence and rotation have been established. Serious damage can result if the compressor starts in the wrong direction. Such damage is not covered by product warranty.

  • IOMM Starter 9

    Motor Terminal Insulation It is the installing contractor's responsibility to insulate the compressor motor terminals when the unit voltage is 600 volts or greater, or in high humidity locations that could cause condensation on the motor terminals that are at about 50°F (10°C). The required material is shipped in as a kit (775123601) placed in the motor terminal box on all medium and high voltage units. It can be ordered for high humidity applications.

    This is to be done after the McQuay start-up technician has checked for proper phase sequence and motor rotation.

    Following this verification by the McQuay technician, the contractor should apply the following items.

    Materials required for 600+volts or high humidity: 1. Loctite® brand safety solvent (12 oz. package available as McQuay part number

    350A263H72) 2. 3M™ Co. Scotchfil brand electrical insulation putty (available in a 60-inch roll as

    McQuay part number 350A263H81) 3. 3M Co. Scotchkote™ brand electrical coating (available in a 15 oz. can with brush as

    McQuay Part Number 350A263H16) 4. Vinyl plastic electrical tape The above items are also available at most electrical supply outlets.

    Application procedure: 1. Disconnect and lock out the power source to the compressor motor. 2. Using the safety solvent, clean the motor terminals, motor barrel adjacent to the

    terminals, lead lugs, and electrical cables within the terminal 4OX to remove all dirt, grime, moisture and oil.

    3. Wrap the terminal with Scotchfil putty, filling in all irregularities. The final result should be smooth and cylindrical.

    4. Doing one terminal at a time, brush the Scotchkote coating on the motor barrel to a distance of up to 1/2 in. around the terminal and on the wrapped terminal, the rubber insulation next to the terminal, and the lug and cable for approximately 10 in. Wrap additional Scotchfil insulation over the Scotchkote coating.

    5. Tape the entire wrapped length with electrical tape to form a protective jacket. 6. Finally, brush on one more coat of Scotchkote coating to provide an extra moisture

    barrier. General Wiring Practice Wire groups

    Signal wiring refers to wires connected to the control terminals that are low voltage, below 15V.

    • Shielded wire is required to prevent electrical noise interference from causing improper operation or nuisance trips.

    • Signal wire should be rated for at least 300V. • Keep signal wire as far away as possible from control and power wiring.

    Control wiring is wiring connected to the control terminal strip that carry 24V to 220V. • Use only UL or CSA recognized wire. • Use copper wire rated for 60/75°C. • Power wiring to the motor must have the maximum possible separation from all other

    wiring. Do not run control wiring in the same conduit; this separation reduces the possibility of coupling electrical noise between circuits. Minimum spacing between metallic conduits containing different wiring groups should be three inches (76 mm).

    • Minimum spacing between different wiring groups should be six inches (152 mm).

  • 10 IOMM Starter

    • Wire runs outside of an enclosure should be run in metallic conduit or have shielding/armor with equivalent attenuation.

    • Different wire groups should cross at 90 degrees whenever power and control wiring cross.

    • Different wire groups should be run in separate conduits. • Adhere to local electrical codes. • The National Electrical Code and Canadian Electrical Code requires that an approved

    circuit disconnecting device be installed in series with the incoming AC supply in a location readily accessible to personnel installing or servicing this equipment. If a disconnect switch is not supplied with the starter, one must be installed.

    • Supply and motor wiring will usually enter and leave the enclosure from the top. Wire connections can be determined to best suit specific installations. Wire runs should be properly braced to handle both starting and fault currents. Size power cable per local electrical codes. Long lengths of cable to the motor of over 150 feet must be de-rated.

    BEFORE APPLYING MAIN POWER The starter has been fully tested before leaving the factory to help a rapid and problem-free start-up. Before applying power to the starter, consult the start-up checklist below.

    1. Inspect starter and remove any foreign matter. 2. Inspect the starter for any shipping damage. 3. Ensure that all electrical connections are as per the system schematics supplied with

    the starter and/or connection diagrams. 4. Ensure that all connections are properly tightened. 5. Test L to T resistance of each phase and ensure that it is greater than 50 kohms.

    Reverse leads and test again. 6. Check that the gate to cathode resistance of each SCR is between 8 and 50 ohms. 7. Check the resistance of all power and motor leads to ground to ensure that there is no

    foreign matter present or damage to the insulation which can short one or more of the phases to ground.

    8. Apply 120 Vac control voltage to the starter.

    Control Wiring

    Control wiring is required between the starter and the unit for three purposes:

    1. Transmit start and stop commands from the unit to the starter.

    2. Transmit electrical information concerning motor operation from the starter to the unit control system.

    3. Supply control power from the starter transformer to the unit control panels.

    General Practice Signal wiring refers to wires connected to the control terminals that are low voltage, below 15V.

    • Shielded wire is required to prevent electrical noise interference from causing improper operation or nuisance trips.

    • Signal wire should be rated for at least 300V. • Keep signal wire as far away as possible from control and power wiring.

    Control wiring refers to wires connected to the control terminal strip that carry 24V to 220V.

    • Use only UL or CSA recognized wire. • Use copper wire rated for 60/75°C.

    Control Power Wiring Control power wiring for starters covered in this manual is shown on Figure 5 on page 16. Low voltage starters may have additional control wiring as shown on Figure 4 if the optional full metering package is ordered with the unit.

    The control circuit on the McQuay centrifugal packaged chiller is designed for 115-volts. Control power can be supplied from three different sources:

    • If the unit is supplied with a factory-mounted starter, the control circuit power supply is factory-wired from a transformer located in the starter.

    • A free-standing starter furnished by McQuay, or by the customer to McQuay specifications, will have a control transformer in it and requires field wiring to terminals in the compressor terminal box.

    • Power can be supplied from a separate circuit and fused at 20 amps inductive load. The control circuit disconnect switch must be tagged to prevent current interruption. Other than for service work, the switch is to remain on at all times in order to keep oil heaters operative and prevent refrigerant from diluting in oil.

    DANGER If a separate control power source is used, the following must be done to avoid

    severe personal injury or death from electrical shock: Place a notice on the unit that multiple power sources

    are connected to the unit. Place a notice on the main and control power disconnects that

    another source of power to the unit exists.

  • 14 IOMM Starter

    Separate Power Source

    Chiller control power usually comes from a control transformer located in the starter and factory or field wired to the chiller control panel. In the event a separate transformer supplies control voltage, it must be rated at 3 KVA, with an inrush rating of 12 KVA minimum at 80% power factor and 95% secondary voltage. For control wire sizing, refer to NEC. Articles 215 and 310. In the absence of complete information to permit calculations, the voltage drop should be physically measured.

    Table 6, Control Power Line Sizing Maximum Length, ft (m) Wire Size (AWG) Maximum Length, ft (m) Wire Size (AWG)

    0 (0) to 50 (15.2) 12 120 (36.6) to 200 (61.0) 6 50 (15.2) to 75 (22.9) 10 200 (61.0) to 275 (83.8) 4 75 (22.9) to 120 (36.6) 8 275 (83.8) to 350 (106.7) 3

    Notes: 1. Maximum length is the distance a conductor will traverse between the control power

    source and the unit control panel. 2. Panel terminal connectors will accommodate up to number 10 AWG wire. Larger

    conductors will require an intermediate junction box. The Unit On/Off switch located in the Unit Control Panel should be turned to the "Off" position any time compressor operation is not desired.

    Low Voltage Starters Control wiring for low voltage starters is per the wiring diagram on page 16. If the optional

    “Full Metering Display” has been ordered, the following section will apply.

    Wiring for Optional Remote D3 Display Figure 3, Starter Panel Remote mounted low voltage wye-delta and solid state starters require field wiring to activate the optional full metering display on the chiller’s operator interface panel. The wiring is from the D3 board in the starter to the compressor controller and to the bias block; both located in the compressor control panel. See Figure 4, Field Wiring for Optional D3 .

    The location of the connections in the starter are shown to the right.

    NOTES for Wiring Diagram

    1. Compressor motor starters are either factory-mounted and wired, or shipped separate for field-mounting and wiring. If provided by others, starters must comply with McQuay specification 359AB99. All line and load side power conductors must be copper.

    2. If starters are freestanding, then field control wiring between the starter and the control panel is required. Minimum wire size for 115 Vac is 12 GA for a maximum length of 50 feet. If greater than 50 feet, refer to McQuay for recommended wire size minimum. Wire size for 24 Vac is 18 GA. All wiring to be installed as NEC Class 1 wiring system and must be made with copper wire and copper lugs only. All 24 Vac wiring must be run in separate conduit from 115 Vac wiring.

    3. Main power wiring between starter and motor terminal is factory-installed when chillers are supplied with unit-mounted starters.

    4. For wye-delta, and solid state starters connected to six (6) terminal motors (low voltage), the conductors between the starter and motor carry phase current and wire size selection is based on 58 percent of the motor rated load amperes (RLA). Wiring of free-standing starters must be in accordance with the NEC and connection to the compressor motor terminals shall be made with copper wire and copper lugs only. Main power wiring between the starter and motor terminals is factory-installed when chillers are supplied with unit-mounted starters.

    5. The “Full Metering” option will require some field wiring when free-standing starters are used, as shown in Figure 4 on page 15.

    Startup

    General The startup of McQuay centrifugal chillers, including the starters, is performed by McQuay authorized and trained technicians. They review the starter connections, phase sequence, and settings prior to starting the chiller.

    Setting a freestanding starter and power and control wiring from it to the chiller is the responsibility of the owner/contractor. See the installation and power and control wiring sections of this manual before commencing installation.

    In the rare instances where a starter is being replaced after the chiller has been in service, McQuay service is not automatically involved but can be contracted to supervise the starter installation.

    For general information, brief startup instructions are included on the following pages.

    Medium/High Voltage, Solid State Quick Start

    Motor FLA

    Parameter Description The motor FLA parameter must be set to the full load amps of the motor connected to the starter for the starter to function correctly. NOTE: The starter uses the entered motor FLA for every current based calculation. If the motor FLA is not entered correctly, the current ramp profile and many of the starter’s advanced protection features will not function properly.

    Parameter Values The motor FLA parameter is adjustable from 1 to 1200 amps in 1-amp increments.

    Parameter Default The default value for the motor FLA is 1 amp.

    Serv. Fact (Service Factor)

    Description The service factor parameter should be set to the service factor of the motor. The service factor is used for the overload calculations. The service factor is factory set, will be checked by the start-up technician and should not require further adjustment. If the service factor of the motor is not known, then the service factor should be set to 1.08.

    Values The service factor can be set from 1.00 to 1.99, in 0.01 increments. NOTE: The NEC (National Electrical Code) does not allow the service factor to be set above 1.40. Check with other local electrical codes for their requirements.

    Default The default value for the service factor is 1.08.

  • IOMM Starter 25

    Start Mode Description The Start Mode parameter allows for an optimal start of the motor based on the application. For a description of the possible Start Mode parameters, refer to page 31 in the Operations chapter. Values

    The Start Mode Parameter can be set to Curr, TT, or Tach. Default

    The default value for the Start Mode is Curr.

    Stop Mode Description The Stop Mode parameter allows for the most suitable stop of the motor based on the application. For a description of the possible Stop Mode parameters, refer to page 31 in the Operations chapter of the starter manual.

    Values The Stop Mode can be set to Coas, VDCL, or TT.

    Default The default value for the Stop Mode is Coas.

    Int. Curr. (initial current) Description The initial current parameter is set as a percentage of the motor FLA parameter setting. The initial current parameter sets the current that will initially reach the motor when a start is commanded.

    If the motor does not rotate within a few seconds after a start command, the initial current should be increased. If the motor takes off too quickly after a start command, the initial current should be decreased.

    The initial current must be set to a value that is lower than the maximum current parameter setting.

    A typical setting for the initial current parameter is from 50% to 175%.

    Values The initial current is adjustable from 50% to 400% in 1% intervals. Default The default value for the initial current is 100%.

    Max. Curr. (maximum current) Description The maximum current parameter is set as a percentage of the motor FLA parameter setting. The maximum current parameter performs two functions. It sets the current for the end of the ramp profile and sets the maximum current that is allowed to reach the motor while the motor is being started.

    If the ramp time expires before the motor has reached full speed, the starter will hold the current at the maximum current level until the stall time expires, the motor reaches full speed, or the overload trips.

    Typically, the maximum current is set to 600% unless the power system or load dictates the setting of a lower maximum current.

    Values The maximum current is adjustable from 100% to 600% in 1% intervals.

  • 26 IOMM Starter

    Default The default value for the maximum current is 600%.

    Ramp Time Description The ramp time sets the amount of time that it takes for the starter to linearly increase the current from the initial current level to the maximum current level. A typical ramp time setting is from 15 to 30 seconds.

    Settings The ramp time is adjustable from 0 to 120 seconds in 1 second intervals. Default The default value for the ramp time is 15 seconds.

    Overload Default

    The default value for the overload parameter is 10.

    Phase Order Description The line phasing parameter sets the phase sensitivity of the starter. This can be used to protect the motor from a possible change in the incoming phase sequence. If the incoming phase sequence does not match the set phase rotation, the starter will display phs err while stopped and will fault if a start is attempted.

    Values The line phasing can be set to:

    • INS - will run with either phase sequence • ABC - will only run with ABC phase sequence • CBA - will only run with CBA phase sequence

    Default The default value for the phase sensitivity parameter is ABC.

    Operation, Low Voltage Starters, 200 – 600 Volts Introduction This section contains information on low voltage, Wye-Delta and solid-state starters as manufactured by Benshaw Inc. for McQuay centrifugal Chillers. They are known collectively as “D3” starters, which is their software designation. These low voltage starters have similar software (designated D3) and are grouped together in this manual. Model numbers are as follows: D3WD11 to D3WD2K Wye-Delta, Free-standing D3WT11 to D3WT65 Wye-Delta, Factory (Terminal) Mounted RVSS14 to RVSS4K Solid State, Free-standing RVST14 to RVST82 Solid State, Factory (Terminal) Mounted

    Viewing Data The information in this section applies to low voltage, solid start and wye-delta starters, with the exceptions noted at the end of the section beginning on page 36.

    Starter information is available on the starter-mounted LED as explained beginning on page 30. If the optional “Full Meter Display” (available only on low voltage starters) is ordered with the unit, power information will also be available on the chiller’s operator interface touchscreen, as explained below.

    Figure 6, Optional Starter View Screen

    The ability to view the starter’s power characteristics and to set starter setpoints on the operator interface screen is an optional extra available at the time of purchase. If the optional “Full Meter Display” is supplied on the unit, the “POWER” button (or “STARTER” in some software versions) will be visible on the upper left side of the VIEW screen as shown above. Pressing this button will open the screen shown in Figure 7 in the blank area to the right of the screen shown above.

    Wye Delta When the D3 control is provided for Wye-Delta – there is Wye-Delta specific software and the D3 control is configured to operate an electromechanical closed transition Wye-Delta (Star-Delta) starter. When equipped with Wye-Delta software, all D3 motor and starter protective functions, except bad SCR detection and power stack overload, are available to provide full motor and starter protection. There is an additional specific parameter for Transition Time. This sets the time when the Wye to Delta transition occurs during starting.

    A closed transition starter uses resistors that are inserted during the transition so that the motor is never completely disconnected from the input line.

    The presence of these resistors in a closed transition starter smoothes the transition from Wye to Delta operation mode. A typical closed transition Wye-Delta starter schematic is shown in Figure 10, Wye Delta Motor Connection to the D3 Control.

    2M Confirm

    The closed transition resistors generally are sized to be in the circuit for a short period of time. To protect the resistors from over heating, one input should be programmed as a Bypass/2M contact feedback input and the Bypass/2M confirm parameter must be set.

    For the Wye-Delta starter mode to operate properly, one output relay needs to be programmed to the RUN output function and another output relay needs to be programmed to the UTS output function. (Refer to parameters I/0 04-06, P42-44 for more information).

    Wye-Delta Operation When the D3 control Starter Type parameter (FUN 07, P64) is set to Wye-Delta, the D3 control is configured to operate an electromechanical Wye-Delta (Star-Delta) starter. When in Wye-Delta mode, all D3 motor and starter protective functions except bad SCR detection and power stack overload, are available to provide full motor and starter protection.

    The D3 control utilizes an intelligent Wye to Delta transition algorithm. If during starting the measured motor current drops below 85% of FLA and more than 25% of the UTS / Transition Time (QST 09, P9) has elapsed then a Wye to Delta transition will occur. The intelligent transition algorithm prevents unnecessarily prolonged motor starts thereby

  • 38 IOMM Starter

    reducing motor heating. If a Wye to Delta transition has not already occurred, a transition will always occur when the complete UTS / Transition Time (QST 09, P9) expires.

    The D3 control can operate two configurations of Wye-Delta starters, open transition and closed transition. An open transition starter momentarily disconnects the motor from the input line during the transition from Wye to Delta operating mode. A closed transition starter uses resistors that are inserted during the transition so that the motor is never completely disconnected from the input line. The presence of these resistors in a closed transition starter smoothes the transition from Wye to Delta operating mode. A typical closed transition Wye-Delta starter schematic is shown in Figure 10.

    For the Wye-Delta starter mode to operate properly, one output relay needs to be programmed to the RUN output function and another output relay needs to be programmed to the UTS output function. (Refer to parameters I/0 04-06, P42-44 for more information.)

    Based on the typical closed transition schematic shown in Figure 10, Wye Delta Motor Connection to the D3 Control, when a start command is given the starter will enter the Wye starting mode by energizing the relay programmed as RUN.

    The transition to Wye (Starting) mode occurs as follows:

    1. Start command is given to the starter.

    2. The RUN relay is energized which energizes the 1S contactor.

    3. When the 1S contactor pulls in, the 1M contactor is energized.

    The D3 starter will remain in the Wye mode until either:

    1. The start command is removed.

    2. The Transition Time (QST 09, P9) expires

    or

    The measured motor current is less than 85% of FLA and at least 25% of the Transition Time (QST 09, P9) has elapsed.

    3. A fault occurs.

    When the Transition Time (QST 09, P9) expires, the starter will change from Wye starting mode to the Delta or normal running mode by energizing the relay programmed as UTS. In Delta mode, the RUN and UTS relays are both energized and the motor is connected in the normal running Delta configuration.

    The transition to Delta (Run) mode occurs as follows:

    1. The Transition Time (QST 09, P9) expires

    or

    The measured motor current is less than 85% of FLA and at least 25% of the Transition Time (QST 09, P9) has elapsed.

    2. The UTS relay is energized which energizes the 2S contactor.

    3. When the 2S contactor pulls in, resistors are inserted in the circuit and the 1S contactor is DE-energized.

    4. When the 1S contactor drops out the 2M contactor is energized.

    5. When the 2M contactor is pulled in, feedback can be sent to the D3 control board to confirm that the transition sequence to Delta is complete.

  • IOMM Starter 39

    The starter will remain in the Delta or running mode until the start command is removed or a fault occurs.

    Usually the D3 intelligent Wye to Delta transition algorithm provides an optimal transition point that minimizes the transient current and torque surges that can occur. However sometimes, based on the motor and loading, the Wye to Delta transition will occur only after the Transition Time has expired. In order to reduce the current surge that can take place during the transition from Wye to Delta mode, the Transition Time parameter (QST 09, P9) should be adjusted so that the transition occurs as close to full speed as possible within the constraints of the load. If the transition time is set too short, a large current and torque surge may occur during the transition. If the transition time is set too long, the motor may not have sufficient torque to continue accelerating when in Wye mode and may stop accelerating at a low speed until the transition to Delta mode occurs. If this occurs, the start is unnecessarily prolonged and motor heating is increased.

    A typical closed transition Wye-Delta starting current profile is shown in Figure 11.

    Transition from Wye to Delta mode

    A digital input (I/O 01-03, P39-41) can be programmed as a 2M contactor feedback input. This input provides verification that the 2M contactor has fully closed preventing operation when the transition resistors are still connected in the motor circuit. The use of this feedback is recommended to prevent the overheating of the transition resistors if the 2M contactor does not close properly. The 2M confirmation trip time can be adjusted by modifying the Bypass / 2M Confirm parameter (I/O 16, P54).

    Note: When in Wye-Delta mode, the acceleration ramp, kick, and deceleration settings have no effect on motor operation and the SCR gate outputs are disabled.

    Code Description Detailed Description of Fault / Possible Solutions

    Motor did not achieve full speed before the UTS timer (QST 09, P9) expired.

    Check motor for jammed or overloaded condition.

    Verify that the combined kick time (CFN11, P14) and acceleration ramp time (QST 08, P8) is shorter than the UTS timer setting.

    Evaluate acceleration ramp settings. The acceleration ramp settings may be too low to permit the motor to start and achieve full speed. If so, revise acceleration ramp settings to provide more motor torque during starting.

    F01 UTS Time Limit Expired

    Evaluate UTS timer setting and, if acceptable, increase UTS timer setting (QST 09, P9).

    The D3 motor thermal overload protection has tripped.

    Check motor for mechanical failure, jammed, or overloaded condition.

    Verify the motor thermal overload parameter settings (QST 03, P3 and PFN 12-16, P35-38) and motor service factor setting (QST 02, P2).

    Verify that the motor FLA (QST 01, P1), CT ratio (FUN 03, P68), and burden switch settings are correct.

    If motor OL trip occurs during starting, review acceleration ramp profile settings.
