VLT 5000 Series
Instruction Manual
Software version: 3.9x
This Instruction Manual can be used for all VLT 5000 Series adjustable frequency drives with software version
3.9x.
The software version number can be seen from parameter 624.
CE and C-tick labeling do not cover VLT 5001-5062, 525-600 V units.
The VLT Adjustable Frequency Drive con-
tains dangerous voltages when connec-
ted to line voltage. After disconnecting
from the line wait at least 15 minutes be-
fore touching any electrical components.
Also make sure that other voltage inputs
have been disconnected, such as external
24 VDC, load-sharing (linkage of DC in-
termediate circuit), as well as the motor
connection for kinetic back-up. Only a
competent electrician should carry out the
electrical installation. Improper installa-
tion of the motor or the VLT may cause
equipment failure, serious injury or death.
Follow this manual and National Electrical
Codes (NEC®) and local safety codes.
NOTE
Electrostatic Precaution; Electrostatic dis-
charge (ESD). Many electronic compo-
nents are sensitive to static electricity.
Voltages so low that they cannot be felt,
seen or heard, can reduce the life, affect
performance, or completely destroy sen-
sitive electronic components. When per-
forming service, proper ESD equipment
should be used to prevent possible dam-
age from occurring.
It is the responsibility of the user or the
person installing the VLT to provide prop-
er grounding, as well as motor overload
and branch circuit protection according to
the National Electrical Code (NEC®) and
local codes.
By altitudes above 2000 m, please contact
Danfoss Drives regarding PELV.

Safety regulations
1. The frequency converter must be disconnec-
ted from mains if repair work is to be carried
out. Check that the mains supply has been
disconnected and that the necessary time
has passed before removing motor and
mains plugs.
2. The [STOP/RESET] key on the control panel
of the frequency converter does not discon-
nect the equipment from mains and is thus
not to be used as a safety switch.
3. Correct protective earthing of the equipment
must be established, the user must be pro-
tected against supply voltage, and the motor
must be protected against overload in ac-
cordance with applicable national and local
regulations.
4. The earth leakage currents are higher than
3.5 mA.
5. Protection against motor overload is not in-
cluded in the factory setting. If this function is
desired, set parameter 128 to data value ETR
trip or data value ETR warning.
Note: The function is initialised at 1.16 x rated
motor current and rated motor frequency. For
the North American market: The ETR func-
tions provide class 20 motor overload pro-
tection in accordance with NEC.
6. Do not remove the plugs for the motor and
main supply while the frequency converter is
connected to mains. Check that the mains
supply has been disconnected and that the
necessary time has expired before removing
motor and mains plugs.
7. Please note that the frequency converter has
more voltage inputs than L1, L2 and L3, when
loadsharing (linking of DC intermediate cir-
cuit) and external 24 V DC have been instal-
led. Check that all voltage inputs have been
disconnected and that the necessary time
has passed before repair work is com-
menced.
Warning against unintended start
1. The motor can be brought to a stop by means
of digital commands, bus commands, refer-
ences or a local stop, while the adjustable
frequency drive is connected to the AC line.
These stop functions are NOT sufficient to
ensure that no unintended start occures and
should NOT be used for personal safety con-
siderations.
2. While parameters are being changed, the
motor may start. Consequently, the stop key
"Stop/Reset" must always be activated, fol-
lowing which data can be modified.
3. A motor that has been stopped may start if
faults occur in the electronics of the adjusta-
ble frequency drive, or if a temporary over-
load or a fault in the AC line supply or the
motor connection ceases.
Installation of mechanical brake
Do not connect a mechanical brake to the output from
the frequency converter before the relevant parame-
ters for brake control are parameterised.
(Selection of output in parameter 319, 321, 323 or 326
and cut-in current and frequency in parameter 223 and
225).
Use on isolated AC line
See section RFI Switch regarding use on isolated AC
line.
It is important to follow the recommendations regard-
ing installation on IT line, since sufficient protection of
the complete installation must be observed. Not taking
care using relevant monitoring devices for IT line sup-
ply may result in damage.

Technical data

VLT 5000 Series protection:
• Electronic motor thermal protection against overload.
• Temperature monitoring of heat-sink ensures that the drive cuts out if the temperature reaches 90°C for
Chassis and Nema 1. For NEMA 12 cut-out temperature is 80°C. An overtemperature can only be reset when
the temperature of the heat-sink has fallen below 60°C.
For the units mentioned below, the limits are as follows:
- VLT 5122, 380-500 V, cuts out at 75°C and can be reset if the temperature has fallen below 60°C.
- VLT 5152, 380-500 V, cuts out at 80°C and can be reset if the temperature has fallen below 60°C.
- VLT 5202, 380-500 V, cuts out at 95°C and can be reset if the temperature has fallen below 65°C.
- VLT 5252, 380-500 V, cuts out at 95°C and can be reset if the temperature has fallen below 65°C.
- VLT 5302, 380-500 V, cuts out at 105°C and can be reset if the temperature has fallen below 75°C.
- VLT 5352-5552, 380-500 V, cut out at 85°C and can be reset if the temperature has fallen below 60°C.
- VLT 5042-5122, 525-690 V, cut out at 75°C and can be reset if the temperature has fallen below 60°C.
- VLT 5152, 525-690 V, cuts out at 80°C and can be reset if the temperature has fallen below 60°C.
- VLT 5202-5352, 525-690 V, cut out at 100°C and can be reset if the temperature has fallen below 70°C.
- VLT 5402-5602, 525-690 V, cut out at 75°C and can be reset if the temperature has fallen below 60°C.
• The drive is protected against short-circuiting on motor terminals U, V, W.
• The drive is protected against earth fault on motor terminals U, V, W.
• Monitoring of the intermediate circuit voltage ensures that the drive cuts out if the intermediate circuit voltage
gets too high or too low.
•If a motor phase is missing, the drive cuts out, see parameter 234 Motor phase monitor.
• If there is a mains fault, the drive is able to carry out a controlled deramping.
• If a mains phase is missing, the drive will cut out when a load is placed on the motor.
