6.7 Connection of Motor Modules to a common DC busbar
6.7.1 Direct connection to the DC busbar
With this connection method, a continuous direct connection between the Motor Modules and the DC busbar is made
without separable contact points using bar conductors, cables or fuses.
Direct connection of a Motor Module to the DC busbar
Each Motor Module must be provided with separate fuse protection.
Air-cooled S120 Motor Modules in Chassis format are equipped as standard for this purpose with integrated, fast
semiconductor fuses in both the positive and negative paths. These disconnect the Motor Module quickly, reliably
and completely from the DC busbar in the event of an internal short circuit, which means that these Motor Modules
can be bolted directly onto the DC busbar by means of short bar conductors or cables.
Liquid-cooled S120 Motor Modules in Chassis format do not feature integrated fuses. They must therefore be
connected to the DC busbar via externally mounted, fast semiconductor fuses. The fuse types recommended for the
direct connection method are listed in the table below.
