Hazards
DANGER! - Ignoring the following may result in injury
1. This equipment can endanger life by
exposure to rotating machinery and
high voltages.
2. The equipment must be permanently
earthed due to the high earth leakage
current, and the drive motor must be
connected to an appropriate safety
earth.
3. Ensure all incoming supplies are
isolated before working on the
equipment. Be aware that there may be
more than one supply connection to the
drive.
4. There may still be dangerous voltages
present at power terminals (motor
output, supply input phases, DC bus and
the brake, where fitted) when the motor
is at standstill or is stopped.
5. For measurements use only a meter
to IEC 61010 (CAT III or higher).
Always begin using the highest
range.
CAT I and CAT II meters must not
be used on this product.
6. Allow at least 5 minutes for the
drive's capacitors to discharge to safe
voltage levels (<50V). Use the
specified meter capable of measuring
up to 1000V dc & ac rms to confirm
that less than 50V is present between
all power terminals and earth.
7. Unless otherwise stated, this product
must NOT be dismantled. In the
event of a fault the drive must be
returned. Refer to "Routine
Maintenance and Repair".
WARNING! - Ignoring the following may result in injury or damage to
equipment
SAFETY
Where there is conflict between EMC and Safety requirements, personnel safety
shall always take precedence.
Never perform high voltage resistance
checks on the wiring without first
disconnecting the drive from the circuit
being tested.
Whilst ensuring ventilation is sufficient,
provide guarding and /or additional
safety systems to prevent injury or
damage to equipment.
All control and signal terminals are
SELV, i.e. protected by double
insulation. Ensure all external wiring
is rated for the highest system
voltage.
Thermal sensors contained within the
motor must have at least basic
insulation.

Cont-5
When replacing a drive in an
application and before returning to use,
it is essential that all user defined
parameters for the product’s operation
are correctly installed.
All exposed metalwork in the Inverter
is protected by basic insulation and
bonded to a safety earth.
RCDs are not recommended for use
with this product but, where their use
is mandatory, only Type B RCDs
should be used.
EMC
In a domestic environment this product
may cause radio interference in which
case supplementary mitigation
measures may be required.
This equipment contains electrostatic
discharge (ESD) sensitive parts.
Observe static control precautions when
handling, installing and servicing this
product.
This is a product of the restricted
sales distribution class according to
IEC 61800-3. It is designated as
“professional equipment” as defined
in
EN61000-3-2. Permission of the
supply authority shall be obtained
before connection to the low voltage
supply.
CAUTION!
APPLICATION RISK
The specifications, processes and circuitry described herein are for guidance only
and may need to be adapted to the user’s specific application. We can not
guarantee the suitability of the equipment described in this Manual for individual
applications.
RISK ASSESSMENT
Under fault conditions, power loss or unintended operating conditions, the drive may
not operate as intended.
In particular:
Stored energy might not discharge to
safe levels as quickly as suggested, and
can still be present even though the
drive appears to be switched off
The motor's direction of rotation might not
be controlled
The motor speed might not be controlled
The motor might be energised
A drive is a component within a drive system that may influence its operation or
effects under a fault condition.
Consideration must be given to:
Stored energy
Supply disconnects
Sequencing logic
Unintended
operation

1-1 Overview of the 506/507/508
506/507/508 - HA389427
Chapter 1 PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Description
The 506/507/508 series controllers are compact, non-isolated motor
speed controllers specifically designed for dc shunt would and
permanent magnet motors. The controllers are intended to operate
from a single phase AC mains supply in the ranges 110/120V AC or
220/240V AC 50/60Hz.
The controllers are intended to be mounted on a length of DIN rail in
an enclosure.
Control of the associated DC motor is achieved by using a linear
closed loop feedback signal based on the motor's own DC armature
voltage. This enables constant motor speed to be maintained
throughout variable motor loads. Improved speed measurement can
be obtained by using a tacho-generator, connected to the motor's
shaft, to provide the feedback signal.
A current loop within the speed feedback path ensures that safe
current levels are always provided to the armature of the motor up to
the level set by the maximum current potentiometer (Imax). This
adjustment is linear and switchable to a lower range of half the
controller current.
If the controlled motor is stalled (e.g. due to either a faulty field
circuit or an excessive load), then a stall timer will remove current
from the motor after approximately 15 seconds. Severe armature
current overloads, are protected against by an instantaneous over-
current trip.
The controllers may also be used in a linear motor torque mode by
using an adjustable setpoint. In this mode of operation over-speed
limiting is a standard feature.

Requirements for UL Compliance
For installations requiring compliance with UL Standards.
Motor Overload Protection
An external motor overload protective device must be provided by the
installer. This device can comprise of a thermal sensor within the motor
winding monitored by an external relay but this combination cannot be
evaluated by UL. Hence, it is the responsibility of the installer/local
inspector to determine whether the combination is in compliance with
the National Electrical Code or local code requirements.
Motor over temperature sensing is required. Motors used in conjunction
with the drive controller shall be provided with PTC sensor(s) or relays
suitable for use with the variable speed drive. Technical details can be
found in Chapter 4 Installing the Drive.
Short Circuit Protection Requirements
UL Recognized semiconductor fuses must be installed upstream of the
controllers. Refer to the semiconductor fuses table on the previous page
for recommended semiconductor fuse manufacturer and type number.
Short Circuit Rating
The 506 and 507 controllers are suitable for use on a circuit capable of
delivering not more than 1000 RMS symmetrical amperes, 240V
maximum; whilst the 508 controller is suitable for use on a circuit
capable of delivering not more than 5000 rms symmetrical amperes,
240V maximum.
Operating Ambient Temperature
The maximum operating ambient temperature rating is 40oC.
Field Wiring Temperature Rating
Use 75oC copper conductors only.
Field Wiring Terminal Markings
For correct field wiring connections that are to be made to each terminal,
refer to Chapter 3: “Terminal Description” - Power Terminals and
Control Terminals.
Power Wiring Terminals
The power wiring terminals accept a maximum conductor size of No. 10
AWG (5.3mm2).
