1 1 1.2.5 Avoid Unintended Start

While the frequency converter is connected to mains, the

motor can be started/stopped using digital commands, bus
commands, references, or via the LCP (local control panel).
To avoid unintended start:

• Disconnect the frequency converter from mains

for personal safety considerations.

• Always press [Off/Reset] before changing

parameters.

Equipment containing electrical components

must not be disposed of together with domestic
waste.
It must be separately collected with electrical
and electronic waste according to local and
currently valid legislation.

1.3 Installation
1. Disconnect the FC 51 from mains (and external
DC supply, if present).
2. Wait for 4 minutes (M1, M2 and M3) and 15
minutes (M4 and M5) for discharge of the DC-link.
See Table 1.1.
3. Disconnect DC bus terminals and brake terminals
(if present).
4. Remove motor cable.

1.3.1 Side-by-side Installation

The frequency converter can be mounted side-by-side for

IP20 rating units and requires 100 mm clearance above
and below for cooling. Refer to chapter 1.7 Specifications
for details on environmental ratings of the frequency
converter.

1.3.3 Connecting to Mains and Motor 1 1

The frequency converter is designed to operate all
standard 3-phased asynchronous motors.
The frequency converter is designed to accept mains/
motor cables with a maximum cross-section of 4 mm2/10
AWG (M1, M2 and M3), and a maximum cross-section of 16
mm2/6 AWG (M4 and M5).

• Use a shielded/armoured motor cable to comply

with EMC emission specifications, and connect
this cable to both the decoupling plate and the
motor metal.

• Keep motor cable as short as possible to reduce

the noise level and leakage currents.

• For further details on mounting of the

decoupling plate, see VLT® Micro Drive FC 51 Illustration 1.3 Removing Terminal Cover

1 1 1.8 General Technical Data

1.8.1 Protection and Features

• Electronic motor thermal protection against overload.

• Temperature monitoring of the heat sink ensures that the frequency converter trips in case of overtemperature.

• The frequency converter is protected against short circuits between motor terminals U, V, W.

• When a motor phase is missing, the frequency converter trips and issues an alarm.

• When a mains phase is missing, the frequency converter trips or issues a warning (depending on the load).

• Monitoring of the DC-link voltage ensures that the frequency converter trips when the DC-link voltage is too low
or too high.

• The frequency converter is protected against ground faults on motor terminals U, V, W.

1.9.1 Derating for Ambient Temperature For altitudes above 2000 m, contact Danfoss regarding
PELV.
The ambient temperature measured over 24 hours should
be at least 5 °C lower than the maximum ambient Below 1000 m altitude, no derating is necessary, but above
temperature. 1000 m, decrease the ambient temperature or the
maximum output current.
If the frequency converter is operated at high ambient Decrease the output by 1% per 100 m altitude above 1000

The frequency converter has been designed for operation
at maximum 50 °C ambient temperature with 1 motor size 1.9.3 Derating for Running at Low Speeds
smaller than nominal. Continuous operation at full load at
50 °C ambient temperature reduces the lifetime of the When a motor is connected to a frequency converter,
frequency converter. check that the cooling of the motor is adequate.
A problem may occur at low speeds in constant torque
1.9.2 Derating for Low Air Pressure applications. Running continuously at low speeds – less
than half the nominal motor speed – may require extra air
cooling. Alternatively, select a larger motor (1 size up).
The cooling capability of air is decreased at low air
pressure.
