“Power+” +0300050EN - rel. 2.3 - 08.06.2012 8
2. INTRODUCTION
Power+ is a drive designed to control compressors with sensorless-brushless
permanent magnet (PM) motors (BLDC/BLAC) or asynchronous induction
motors. For the latter, vector or V/f control can be selected. The drives can
also be used in some applications with fans and pumps, and consequently
the device o ers  exible use in the air-conditioning and refrigeration
sectors. It is  tted for panel installation or with heat sink outside of the panel.
Con guration and programming, as well as the Run/stop controls and speed
reference, are managed by a CAREL pCO controller or any controller device
via RS485 serial connection using the Modbus® protocol in master mode.
To suppress current harmonics:
on single-phase models, during installation a toroidal coil, supplied with
the drive, needs to be connected for active power factor correction (PFC);
on three-phase models, connection of a DC choke is optional (available for
purchase as an accessory), if compliance with EN61000-3-12 is required.
2.1 Functions and main features
In summary:
compact dimensions for assembly in electrical panels;
operation at ambient temperatures from -20 to 60°C;
can be installed in residential and industrial environments;
connection via serial network to Master programmable controller;
network address can be con gured by setting the dipswitches directly on
the drive;
can control various types of compressors;
safety digital input (Safety Torque O );
dedicated input for PTC thermistor or thermostat to monitor motor
overtemperature;
panel installation or with heat sink outside of the panel, to optimize the
dissipation of heat inside the electrical panel;
electrical connections can be made without needing to remove the plastic
cover;
programmable acceleration curve to adapt to the required speci cations
when starting compressor;
high switching frequency to limit motor noise;
detailed information on drive status via numerous read-only variables;
protection functions for the drive (short-circuit, overcurrent, earth fault,
overvoltage and undervoltage on the bus, overtemperature), motor
(overtemperature and limitation of current delivered) and system (Safety
Torque O input, communication failure).
