4 UL-compliant use
This chapter contains relevant information for use under UL conditions (UL – Underwriters
Laboratories).
Surrounding air temperature and pollution degree
The maximum surrounding air temperature for UL-compliant operation is 45°C. Use in an
environment with pollution degree 2 is permitted.
Network layout
All device types supplied with 480V
AC
are intended solely for operation with grounded wye
sources at 480/277V
AC
.
Power supply and motor overload protection
Observe the specification of I
2maxPU
at 8kHz clock frequency in the electrical data of the drive
controller; see the chapter Electrical data [}23].
Line fuse
For UL-compliant line fuses, observe the specifications in the chapter UL-compliant line fuse
[}63].
In accordance with CSA-C22.2 No. 14-13, the following applies for use in Canada:
Depending on the device type, additional overvoltage protection must be installed in the network
upstream of the device and must fulfill the following conditions.
§ Single-phase – SD6A02:
• Overvoltage category 3
• Phase-ground = 240V
AC
(peak permitted rated surge voltage = 4kV)
• Phase-phase (or N) = 240V
AC
(peak permitted rated surge voltage = 4kV)
§ Three-phase – from SD6A04:
• Overvoltage category 3
• Phase-ground = 277V
AC
(peak permitted rated surge voltage = 4kV)
• Phase-phase (or N) = 480V
AC
(peak permitted rated surge voltage = 6kV)
Motor protection
All models of the 6th STOBER drive controller generation feature a certified i²t model, a
computational model for thermal monitoring of the motor. This fulfills the requirements for solid
state motor overload protection in accordance with the amendment to UL508C from May 2013.
In order to activate it and start the protective function, set the parameters as follows (deviating
from the default values): U10 = 2:Warning and U11 = 1.00s. This model can be used instead of
or in addition to temperature-monitored motor protection, as described in the chapter X2: Motor
temperature sensor [}77].
Motor temperature sensor
The SD6 drive controller features connections for PTC thermistors (NAT 145°C), KTY
temperature sensors (KTY84-130) or Pt temperature sensors (Pt1000). For a proper
connection, observe the terminal description for X2 in the chapter X2: Motor temperature sensor
[}77].
