2. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Regenerated voltage occurs when the speed of the motor exceeds the set speed on the
drive. This can be due to braking or an overhauling load. In applications with extended
braking times, high horsepower, or where frequent regeneration occurs, the M3645P
regenerative DC bus power supply is the economical solution for controlling regenerative
voltage. While resistor solutions waste regenerated energy as heat, the Bonitron M3645P
returns the regenerated energy back to the input AC line. M3645P also acts as a rectifier,
supplying power to the drive bus during motoring.
The M3645P regenerative DC bus power supply synchronizes to the frequency of the
incoming power line, allowing it to automatically adapt to 50Hz or 60Hz input. Under
normal conditions, the M3645P rectifies the AC line and supplies power to the load. During
a braking event, as theDC bus rises above the AC line peak, the M3645P redirects current
from the DC bus into the AC line to limit the rise in bus voltage and prevent overvoltage
faults. While regenerating the M3645P will automatically fold back in an overcurrent
condition, or shut down in the event that unsafe conditions are detected.
With the optional digital display, the current status of the M3645P is shown and fault
records are stored, along with a lifetime count of regenerative energy.
Up to two 100A M3645P units can be run in parallel for high-power applications.

3. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION!
Installation and/or removal of this product should only be performed by a
qualified electrician in accordance with National Electrical Code or local
codes and regulations.
Proper installation of the M3645P DC bus power supply modules should be executed
following the steps outlined below. Be sure to refer to the AC drive instruction manual as
these steps are performed. Please direct all installation inquiries that may arise during the
installation and start-up of this product to the equipment supplier or system integrator.
3.1. ENVIRONMENT
The module should be installed in an area protected from moisture and falling debris.
Buildup of dust or debris may cause poor performance and possibly a failure.
Operating in a wet environment can pose a shock hazard. The recommended
temperature range for operating this module is 0 to +40C.
Device shall be installed in a pollution degree 2 environment.
3.2. UNPACKING
Upon receipt of this product, please verify that the product received matches the
product that was ordered and that there is no obvious physical damage to the unit. If
the wrong product was received or the product is damaged in any way, please contact
the supplier from which the product was purchased.
3.3. MOUNTING
3.3.1. M3645P DC BUS REGENERATIVE POWER SUPPLY
The installation site for the M3645P power supply should be chosen with several
considerations in mind:
•When mounting regen units in an enclosure, power dissipation should be taken
into account. Refer to Section 6.3 Watt Loss for details.
•The unit requires a minimum clearance of two (2) inches in all directions around it
when not mounted near a heat source. Heat sources may increase necessary
clearances.
•Unit should not be exposed to falling debris or condensation.
Once the installation site has been selected as outlined above, the unit should be
mounted in place.
The M3645P must be properly oriented for proper heat flow through the unit. The
M3645P must be mounted with the rear surface of the unit to the mounting surface.
The unit may be mounted vertically (Figure 3-1D), or with its backplane down and
parallel to the ground (Figure 3-1A).
Do Not mount the unit on the underside of a mounting surface as shown in Figure 3-
1B.
Do Not mount the unit in a horizontal position with its side parallel to the mounting
surface or floor as shown in Figure 3-1C.
Do Not mount the unit in an upside-down position, as shown in Figure 3-1E.
Refer to Table 2-3: Chassis Styles to determine the chassis for the unit. Mounting
dimensions and provisions vary by unit chassis. See Figure 3-1 for mounting
orientation information and Section 6.6 for dimensional drawings.

3.3.2. M3645 M15 LINE REACTOR MOUNTING
The installation of the M3645 M15 line reactor should be chosen with several
considerations in mind:
•The M3645 M15 line reactor is only required when using the 150A, 225A, and
300A rated M3645 in the M15 chassis.
•When mounting the line reactor in an enclosure, power dissipation should be
taken into account. Refer to Section 6.3 Watt Loss for details.
•The unit requires a minimum clearance of two inches (2”) in all directions around
it when not mounted near a heat source. Heat sources may increase necessary
clearances.
•Unit should not be exposed to falling debris or condensation.
•The unit can be mounted in any orientation.
Once the installation site has been selected as outlined above, the unit should be
mounted in place. See Section 6.6 for dimensional drawings.
3.3.3. KIT 3645DD, EXTERNAL DISPLAY MOUNTING
The KIT 3645DD external display is comprised of the display board assembly (ASM
3645D3) and a 12-foot-long cable (CBL 3660DD4-DI12). The installation should be
chosen with several considerations in mind:
•The external display requires a cutout from the front panel. See Figure 6-6 for the
dimensional requirements for the cutout.
•The display will attach to the front of the panel. The display is secured to the
panel with a screw in each corner.
•The unit requires a minimum clearance of one (1) inch in all directions around it.
•The unit should not be exposed to falling debris or condensation.
•The 12-foot cable provided with the display must be attached to TB5 on the
control board of the M3645P and to TB3 on the ASM 3645D3 on the rear of the
display. See Figure 3-12.
Once the installation site has been selected as outlined above, the unit should be
mounted in place. See Section 6.6 for dimensional drawings.
NOTE: The KIT 3645DD is only compatible with “L” versions of the M3645P power
supply. Only a single display can be used for each line regen. The line regen is unable
to power more than a single display.
3.4. WIRING AND CUSTOMER CONNECTIONS
Be sure to review all pertinent AC drive and system documentation as well as the
information listed below before proceeding. Connection points and terminal numbers
of the AC drive will be found in the documentation provided with those units. See
Tables 3-1 thru 3-6 and Figures 3-2 thru 3-8 for connection details.
3.4.1. POWER WIRING
CAUTION!
Only qualified electricians should perform and maintain the interconnection
wiring of this product. All wiring should be in accordance with local codes.
DANGER!
Do NOT daisy chain the AC, DC, or ground connections between multiple
power supply units. Each power supply should have separate power and
ground connections.

▪Where possible, minimize the wire length between the Power Supply and
the Drive. The wire length should not exceed 10 feet.
▪Avoid routing and bundling the Power Supply AC/DC wiring with the Drive
AC PWM motor output wiring.
3.4.1.1. 3-PHASE AC INPUT
Do not install chokes or reactors between the power supply and the power
source. M3645P has an internal 5% line reactor.
If an isolation transformer is to be used, the transformer should meet the
ratings shown in Table 3-1.

Do not connect to a generator. For further details, contact Bonitron.
The AC line connections should have short-circuit current protection.
Recommended fuses are listed in Section 6.5.
3.4.1.2. INTER-MODULE WIRING FOR 150A, 225A, AND 300A UNITS
For M3645 rated for 150A, 225A, and 300A an individual line reactor
must be used in front of each line regen module. See Figure 3-10 for
wiring diagram.
The user must wire both the control AC wiring from the line reactor to
the line regen module.

User’s Manual
19
The control wiring must be connected to the utility side of the line reactor
and is phase sensitive.
DANGER!
The AC control wiring to the 150A, 225A, and 300A units is phase sensitive.
If the AC control wiring is not in phase with power wiring catastrophic
damage to equipment will result.
3.4.1.3. DC BUS INPUT
The DC bus input may be connected to the DC bus of a single AC drive
or to a common DC bus. If a reactor or choke are being used in the bus,
make sure the actual connection is in parallel with filter capacitors of the
drive/inverter.
DANGER!
Never attach the DC bus input of the M3645P to braking terminals on the AC
drive, commonly marked “BR”. These terminals are intended for use with an
external resistor, and are not directly connected to the bus filter capacitors of
the drive. Damage may occur if these terminals are used.
Please refer to your AC drive manual or AC drive technical support department
for assistance with this connection.
3.4.1.4. GROUNDING
Using the ground stud provided, ground the chassis in accordance with
local codes. Typically, the wire gauge will be the same as is used to
ground the attached drive.
