The 590+ Series Converter is designed for use in a suitable enclosure, with associated control
equipment. The unit accepts a variety of standard three-phase ac supply voltages depending upon
the model, and is suitable for the powering of DC shunt field and permanent magnet motors,
providing controlled dc output voltage and current for armature and field.
All units are designed for simple and economical panel mounting using keyhole slots. Plug-in
control connectors simplify the fitting and removal of the unit to the panel.
Where possible, standard parts are used throughout the range thereby reducing the variety of
spare parts required to maintain a multi-drive system. For example, the same basic control boards
are used in all types of three-phase armature controller regardless of horsepower or bridge
configuration.
The control circuit is totally isolated from the power circuit thus simplifying the interconnection
of controllers within a system and improving operator safety. The coding circuitry adjusts
automatically to accept supply frequencies between 45-65Hz and possesses high immunity to
supply-borne interference. The armature controllers are phase rotation insensitive.
&RQWURO#DQG#&RPPXQLFDWLRQV
The Converter is controlled by a 16 bit Microcontroller providing advanced features such as:
• Complex control algorithms which are not achievable by simple analog techniques.
• Software-configurable control circuitry built around standard software blocks.
• Serial link communications with other drives or a PC for advanced process systems.
The Operator Station gives access to parameters, diagnostic messages, trip settings and full
application programming.

The motor armature controllers include both regenerative and non-regenerative models:
• Regenerative controllers consist of two fully-controlled thyristor bridges and a field bridge
with full transient and overload protection, together with sophisticated electronic control of
acceleration and deceleration, speed and torque in both directions of rotation.
• Non-regenerative controllers consist of one fully-controlled thyristor bridge and a field
bridge with full transient and overload protection, together with its associated electronic
control circuitry, and provide accurate speed and/or torque control in one selected direction
of rotation.
)LHOG#5HJXODWRU
A field regulator is fitted as standard. The regulator consists of a full-wave half controlled single
phase thyristor bridge with transient and overload protection. It provides either a fixed voltage or
fixed current source, depending upon the selected mode of operation for constant torque
applications. The field current mode of operation can be further enhanced to provide field
weakening for drive control motors which require extended speed or constant horsepower
control.

• Check for signs of transit damage
• Check the product code on the rating label conforms to your requirement.
If the unit is not being installed immediately, store the unit in a well-ventilated place away from
high temperatures, humidity, dust, or metal particles.
Refer to Chapter 2: “An Overview of the Converter” to check the rating label/product code.
Refer to Chapter 8: “Routine Maintenance and Repair” for information on returning damaged
goods.
Refer to Chapter 11: “Technical Specifications” - Environmental Details for the storage
temperature.

Save the packaging in case of return. Improper packaging can result in transit damage.
Use a safe and suitable lifting procedure when moving the drive. Never lift the drive by its
terminal connections.
Prepare a clear, flat surface to receive the drive before attempting to move it. Do not damage any
terminal connections when putting the drive down.
Refer to Chapter 11: “Technical Specifications” - Mechanical Details for unit weights.

In very simple terms, the Converter controls the dc motor with the use of Control Loops - an
inner Current Loop and an outer Speed Loop. These control loops can be seen in the Application
Block Diagram. The block diagram shows all the Converter’s software connections.
Using the Operator Station, you can select the control loops to be used by the Converter to
provide either:
• Current Control
• Speed Control (default)
It is usual to supply a Current or Speed Feedback signal to the appropriate loop for more
effective control of the Converter. Current Feedback sensors are built-in, whereas Speed
Feedback is provided directly from the armature sensing circuit (default), or by tachogenerator,
encoder or Microtach connection to the relevant option board.
When in Speed Control,
you can modify the
performance of the
Converter further by
controlling the motor
field, i.e. Field Control.
By weakening the field
current, you can obtain
an increase in motor
speed beyond that
normally achievable for
the rated Armature
Voltage of the dc motor.
The Converter is controlled remotely using digital/analog inputs and outputs, or locally using the
Operator Station.
By plugging in a COMMS Option Technology Box, the Converter can be linked into a network
and controlled by a PLC/SCADA or other intelligent device.

Adjustments All adjustments in software can be altered by
the Operator Station or via serial communications. The
Operator Station provides monitoring and adjustment of
parameters and levels, in addition to diagnostic facilities.
