650V AC Drive 
Chapter 1 GETTING STARTED 
Introduction 
The 650V Series AC Drive provides simple, compact, and low-cost speed control for 3-phase 
induction motors 
This manual describes the low-power end of the 650V product range for the following motor 
power ratings: 
 
Nominal Input Voltage  Phase  Drive Power 
Frame 1  230V  1  0.25 – 0.75kW  0.3 - 1.0 Hp 
Frame 2  230V  1  1.1 – 1.5kW  1.5 - 2.0 Hp 
Frame 2  400V  3  0.37 – 2.2kW  0.5 - 3.0 Hp 
Frame 3  230V 1 2.2kW 3.0 Hp 
Frame 3  230V  3  2.2 - 4.0 kW  3.0 - 5.0 Hp 
Frame 3  400V  3  3.0 – 7.5kW  4.0 - 10.0 Hp 
The drive features: 
•  Local or Remote mode operation 
•  SELV control terminals (Safe Extra Low Volts) 
•  Intelligent monitoring strategy to avoid nuisance tripping 
•  In-built protection of the unit against overloads, excessive voltages, phase-to-phase and 
phase-to-earth short circuits 
•  An internal RFI filter is fitted as standard 
•  An internal dynamic brake switch for connection to an external resistor (Frame 3: 230V, and 
400V units only) 
•  Quiet operation 
•  Controlling the unit locally using the 6511 Keypad gives access to parameters, diagnostic 
messages, trip settings and full application programming. Other features also become 
available, such as the advanced sensorless vector control scheme which gives high torque, 
low speed operation; selectable switching frequencies; and a unique Quiet Pattern control 
system that minimises audible noise from the motor. 
Note: 
Do not attempt to control motors whose rated current is less than 50% of the drive rated 
current. Poor motor control or Autotune problems may occur if you do 
Equipment Inspection 
•  Check for signs of transit damage 
•  Check the drive is suitable for your requirements by reading the Product Code on the rating 
label. Refer to Chapter 9: “Technical Specifications” - Understanding the Product Code. 
If the unit is damaged, refer to Chapter 8: “Routine Maintenance and Repair” for information on 
returning damaged goods. 
Storage and Packaging 
Save the packaging in case of return. Improper packaging can result in transit damage. 
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.
