1. SAFETY
ONLY A COMPETENT ELECTRICIAN IS ALLOWED TO CARRY
OUT THE ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION!
This manual contains clearly marked cautions and warnings which are intended for
your personal safety and to avoid any unintentional damage to the product or con-
nected appliances.
Please read the information included in cautions and warnings carefully:
1.1 Warnings
= Dangerous voltage
Risk of death or severe injury
= General warning
Risk of damage to the product or
connected appliances
The components of the power unit of the frequency converter
are live when Vacon 10 is connected to mains potential. Com-
ing into contact with this voltage is extremely dangerous and
may cause death or severe injury. The control unit is isolated
from the mains potential.
The motor terminals U, V, W (T1, T2, T3) and the possible
brake resistor terminals -/+ are live when Vacon 10 is con-
nected to mains, even if the motor is not running.
The control I/O-terminals are isolated from the mains poten-
tial. However, the relay output terminals may have a danger-
ous control voltage present even when Vacon 10 is
disconnected from mains.
The earth leakage current of Vacon 10 frequency converters
exceeds 3.5mA AC. According to standard EN61800-5-1, a
reinforced protective ground connection must be ensured.
If the frequency converter is used as a part of a machine, the
machine manufacturer is responsible for providing the
machine with a main switch (EN 60204-1).

If Vacon 10 is disconnected from mains while running the
motor, it remains live if the motor is energized by the process.
In this case the motor functions as a generator feeding energy
to the frequency converter.
After disconnecting the frequency converter from the mains,
wait until the fan stops and the indicators on the display go
out. Wait 5 more minutes before doing any work on Vacon 10
connections.

1.2 Safety instructions
1.3 Earthing and earth fault protection
The Vacon 10 frequency converter must always be earthed with an earthing conduc-
tor connected to the earthing terminal. See figure below:
•The earth fault protection inside the frequency converter protects
only the converter itself against earth faults.
•If fault current protective switches are used they must be tested
with the drive with earth fault currents that are possible to arise in
fault situations.
The Vacon 10 frequency converter has been designed for fixed
installations only.
Do not perform any measurements when the frequency con-
verter is connected to the mains.
Do not perform any voltage withstand tests on any part of
Vacon 10. The product safety is fully tested at factory.
Prior to measurements on the motor or the motor cable, dis-
connect the motor cable from the frequency converter.
Do not open the cover of Vacon 10. Static voltage discharge
from your fingers may damage the components. Opening the
cover may also damage the device. If the cover of Vacon 10 is
opened, warranty becomes void.

3.1.2 Cooling
Forced air flow cooling is used in all Vacon 10 drives.
Enough free space shall be left above and below the frequency converter to ensure
sufficient air circulation and cooling. You will find the required dimensions for free
space in the table below:
3.1.3 EMC levels
Vacon 10 frequency converters are divided into five classes according to the level of
electromagnetic disturbances emitted, the requirements of a power system network
and the installation environment (see below). The EMC class of each product is de-
fined in the type designation code.
Category C1 (Vacon EMC class C): Frequency converters of this class comply with
the requirements of category C1 of the product standard EN 61800-3 (2004). Catego-
ry C1 ensures the best EMC characteristics and it includes converters the rated volt-
age of which is less than 1000V and which are intended for use in the 1st
environment. NOTE: The requirements of class C are fulfilled only as far as the con-
ducted emissions are concerned.
Category C2 (Vacon EMC class H): Frequency converters of this class comply with
the requirements of category C2 of the product standard EN 61800-3 (2004). Catego-
ry C2 includes converters in fixed installations and the rated voltage of which is less
than 1000V. The class H frequency converters can be used both in the 1st and the 2nd
environment.
Category C3 (Vacon EMC class L): Frequency converters of this class comply with
the requirements of category C3 of the product standard EN 61800-3 (2004). Catego-
ry C3 includes converters the rated voltage of which is less than 1000V and which are
intended for use in the second environment only.

Category C4 (Vacon EMC class N): The drives of this class do not provide EMC emis-
sion protection. These kinds of drives are mounted in enclosures. NOTE: An external
EMC filter is usually required to fulfil the EMC emission requirements.
Category C4 for IT networks (Vacon EMC class T): Frequency converters of this
class fulfil the product standard EN 61800-3 (2004) if intended to be used in IT sys-
tems. In IT systems, the networks are isolated from earth, or connected to earth
through high impedance to achieve a low leakage current. NOTE: if converters are
used with other supplies, no EMC requirements are complied with.
Environments in product standard EN 61800-3 (2004)
First environment: Environment that includes domestic premises. It also includes
establishments directly connected without intermediate transformers to a low-volt-
age power supply network which supplies buildings used for domestic purposes.
NOTE: houses, apartments, commercial premises or offices in a residential building
are examples of first environment locations.
Second environment: Environment that includes all establishments other than
those directly connected to a low-voltage power supply network which supplies
buildings used for domestic purposes.
NOTE: industrial areas, technical areas of any building fed from a dedicated trans-
former are examples of second environment locations.
3.1.4 Changing the EMC protection class from H or L to T
The EMC protection class of Vacon 10 frequency converters can be changed from
class H or L to class T by removing the EMC-capacitor disconnecting screw, see fig-
ure below.
Note! Do not attempt to change the EMC level back to class H or L. Even if the pro-
cedure above is reversed, the frequency converter will no longer fulfil the EMC re-
quirements of class H/L!

ed to be faulty.
1. Motor cable insulation checks
Disconnect the motor cable from terminals U/T1, V/T2 and W/T3 of the frequency
converter and from the motor. Measure the insulation resistance of the motor cable
between each phase conductor as well as between each phase conductor and the
protective ground conductor.
The insulation resistance must be >1MOhm.
2. Mains cable insulation checks
Disconnect the mains cable from terminals L1, L2/N and L3 of the frequency con-
verter and from the mains. Measure the insulation resistance of the mains cable be-
tween each phase conductor as well as between each phase conductor and the
protective ground conductor.The insulation resistance must be >1MOhm.
