The PowerXL frequency inverters are electrical apparatus for
controlling variable speed drives with three-phase motors.
They are designed for installation in machines or for use
in combination with other components within a machine
or system.
After installation in a machine, the frequency inverters must
not be taken into operation until the associated machine
has been confirmed to comply with the safety requirements
of Machinery Safety Directive (MSD) 2006/42 EC (meets
the requirements of EN 60204). The user of the equipment
is responsible for ensuring that the machine use complies
with the relevant EU Directives.
The CE markings on the PowerXL frequency inverter
confirm that, when used in a typical drive configuration,
the apparatus complies with the European Low
Voltage Directive (LVD) and the EMC Directives
(Directive 2014/35/EU and Directive 2014/30/EU.
In the described system configurations, PowerXL frequency

Motor cable connections are made to terminals U, V, and W.

Cable selection: Power and motor leads

• Use UL approved heat-resistant copper cables only
• 75 °C or higher for all units rated
• Line voltage/mains should be Class 1 wire only outside
North America
• Refer to the following tables for cable sizing guidelines
• North America 208 V to 240 V: Appendix B
• North America 380 V to 500 V: Appendix B
• All other International 380 V to 600 V: Appendix B

Line (Mains) and motor cable installation

The input line and motor cables must be sized in accordance
with the rated PowerXL VFD input and output current.
If motor temperature sensing is used for overload protection,
the output cable size may be selected based on the motor
specifications.
Maximum symmetrical supply current is 100,000 A RMS for

Input protection
Input protection devices are rated based on PowerXL rated
input and output current. For UL and cUL/CSA, refer to

 The above wiring demonstrates a SINK configuration. It is important that CMA and CMB are wired to ground (as shown by dashed line).
If a SOURCE configuration is desired, wire 24 V to CMA and CMB and close the inputs to ground. When using the +10 V for AI1, it is
important to wire AI1—to ground (as shown by dashed line). If using +10 V for AI1 or AI2, terminals 3, 5, and 6 need to be jumpered together.
 AI1+ and AI2+ use a 10k pot for 0–10 V.

1. Check the motor cable insulation as follows:
• Disconnect the motor cable from terminals U, V and

• Measure the insulation resistance of the motor
cable between each phase conductor as well as
between each phase conductor and the protective

• The insulation resistance must be >1M ohm

2. Check the input power cable insulation as follows:

• Disconnect the input power cable from terminals

from the utility line feeder
• Measure the insulation resistance of the input power
cable between each phase conductor as well as
between each phase conductor and the protective
ground conductor
• The insulation resistance must be >1M ohm

3. Check the motor insulation as follows:

• Disconnect the motor cable from the motor and open
any bridging connections in the motor connection box
• Measure the insulation resistance of each motor
winding. The measurement voltage must equal at
least the motor nominal voltage but not exceed
1000 V
• The insulation resistance must be >1M ohm

maintain proper cooling. The following procedures and tables describe the process of derating and
choosing the correct drive.
Procedure
Certain operating parameters and conditions are required for correct derating. These are: voltage, torque
application (variable or constant), operating temperature, enclosure rating, switching frequency, required
amperage.
Follow the below steps to correctly derate the PowerXL drives.

1. Find the derating table (Table 46–Table 51) for the voltage and torque application.
ex.) 480 V, Variable Torque = Table 8
2. Within the table, find the sections of rows for the application temperature and column for the
switching frequency.
ex.) 50 °C section, 4 kHz column
3. Look at all the frame sizes and find the frame size for your required amperage.
ex.) FR1 = 9 A
FR2 = 25 A
FR3 = 51.8 A @ this is the frame size needed for the 37 A application
FR4 = 89.9 A
FR5 = 66.1 A
4. Take the derating % for that frame size and go to the catalog tables (Table 2–Table 7).
Derate each option within that frame size to find the correct drive.
ex.) the derating percentage is 84.9%
DG1-34031FB-C21C: normal 38 A, derated to 84.9% = 32.3 A
DG1-34038FB-C21C: normal 46 A. derated to 84.9% = 39.1 A @ this is the drive to select
DG1-34046FB-C21C: normal 61 A, derated to 84.9% = 51.8 A

Motor overload and over-temperature protection
This drive provides solid-state motor overload protection. The
solid-state motor overload protection limit is adjustable, see
the drives application manual for more details.
This drive can accept and act upon a signal from a thermal
sensor or switch embedded in the motor or from an external
protective relay to achieve the motor over temperature
protection. Therefore, in order to achieve the motor over
temperature protection, a sensor from the motor will be
needed.

Appendix E—STO function

The STO terminal block shall be short circuited by jumper if

user doesn’t needed STO function.
If the function is used by customer, the STO terminal block
shall be connected to emergency stop switch, safety relay
or PLC, and so on.
The STO function needs to be always on, which means the
idle-current principle shall be followed by the end user.

Figure 56. Thermistor STO wiring diagram

Requirements of proof test

• This device must be subjected to a full test at least once
every 20 years.
• The STO function must be verified.
• The system response time must be verified to check
whether it is still ≤ 1ms.
