NOTE
LEROY-SOMER reserves the right to modify the characteristics of its products at any time in order to incorporate the latest
technological developments. The information contained in this document may therefore be changed without notice.
CAUTION
For the user's own safety, this variable speed drive must be connected to an approved earth ( terminal).
If accidentally starting the installation is likely to cause a risk to personnel or the machines being driven, it is essential to comply
with the power connection diagrams recommended in this manual.
The variable speed drive is fitted with safety devices which, in the event of a problem, control stopping and thus stop the motor.
The motor itself can become jammed for mechanical reasons. Voltage fluctuations, and in particular power cuts, may also cause
the motor to stop. The removal of the causes of the shutdown can lead to restarting, which may be dangerous for certain
machines or installations.
In such cases, it is essential that the user takes appropriate precautions against the motor restarting after an unscheduled stop.
The variable speed drive is designed to be able to supply a motor and the driven machine above its rated speed.
If the motor or the machine are not mechanically designed to withstand such speeds, the user may be exposed to serious danger
resulting from their mechanical deterioration.
It is important that the user checks that the installation can withstand it, before programming a high speed.
The variable speed drive which is the subject of this manual is designed to be integrated in an installation or an electrical
machine, and can under no circumstances be considered to be a safety device. It is therefore the responsibility of the machine
manufacturer, the designer of the installation or the user to take all necessary precautions to ensure that the system complies
with current standards, and to provide any devices required to ensure the safety of equipment and personnel.
LEROY-SOMER declines all responsibility in the event of the above recommendations not being observed.

At low frequencies, IGBT modules are subject to significant temperature cycling, which may reduce their life.
Measuring the temperature of the power bridges in conjunction with thermal modelling of the IGBTs protects the
POWERDRIVE MD against overheating.
The curve below indicates the output current derating necessary when operating at low frequency, in continuous and transient

MECHANICAL INSTALLATION
2 - MECHANICAL INSTALLATION
• It is the responsibility of the owner or user of the POWERDRIVE MD to ensure that the installation, operation and
maintenance of the drive and its options comply with legislation relating to the safety of personnel and equipment
and with the regulations in force in the country of use.
The drive must not be installed in hazardous areas unless it is in an appropriate enclosure. In this case the installation
must be approved.
• In atmospheres where condensation may form, install a heating system which operates when the drive is not in
use and is switched off when the drive is in use. It is advisable to control the heating system automatically.
2.1 - Checks on receipt

• Make sure that the cabinet has been transported vertically, as otherwise it could be damaged.
Before installing the POWERDRIVE MD, check that:

- The drive has not been damaged during transport
- The information on the nameplate is compatible with the power supply
2.2 - Handling
• The centre of gravity may be high up and/or off-centre, so beware of the risk of the cabinet tipping over.
• Check that the handling equipment is suitable for the weight to be handled.
• The lifting accessories provided are limited solely to handling the cabinet. If subsequent handling operations are
carried out, the condition of these lifting accessories must be checked first.

2.4 - Dimensions and weights

The cabinet-mounted POWERDRIVE MD solution is obtained by assembling 600x600x2000 (mm) cabinet modules and possibly
a 400x600x2000 (mm) module.
The depth is therefore constant and the width varies according to the rating and the options chosen.
The MD-AU Emergency stop option (category 1 or category 2-3) can be integrated in the POWERDRIVE MD without
altering its dimensions.

CAUTION:
The special way in which the "Secure disable" input is managed is not compatible with the Run/Stop commands being
controlled by the POWERDRIVE MD configuration interface or a fieldbus. When control via a keypad or fieldbus is
required, the SDI2 input should be viewed as a simple enabling input. In this case, the power circuit diagram must comply

(1) The value of the rated current and the motor cable cross-sections are given for information only. Since the motor rated current
permitted by the drive varies according to the switching frequency and the coolant flow rate.
(2) The recommended cross-sections have been determined for single-wire copper cable with a maximum length of 10 m. For
longer cables, take line drops due to the length into account.
Note:
• Ico: Continuous output current
• The mains current value is a typical value which depends on the source impedance. The higher the impedance, the lower the
current.
• The cable cross-sections are defined according to the following model:
E.g. for an 1100T, a cable cross-section of 4 x (3 x 240 + 120) is given, i.e. 4 cables each with 3 phase conductors (cross-section
240) and 1 earth conductor (cross-section 120).
3.3.5 - Disconnection of forced ventilation units

For the MDS 180T to 1100T and MDS 270TH to 1500TH drives, the fuse board described in section 3.1.1. enables the user to
switch off the power supply to the drive forced ventilation units momentarily, if preheating resistors are used in the cabinet for
example.
To disconnect the fans, remove the jumper connecting terminals P7 and P8 and connect a normally closed contact (230 V/7 A on
resistive load). A closed contact allows the fans to operate, an open contact cuts off their power supply.

switch off, fatal residual voltages remain at the output
terminals and in the drive.
• Before carrying out any work, disconnect and lock
the drive power supply and wait at least 10 minutes to
ensure that the capacitors have discharged.
• Ensure that the DC bus voltage is below 40 V
before carrying out any work (the control board power-
on indicator LED must be off, see section 5.5.1).
• During maintenance operations performed with
the drive switched on, the operator must stand on an
insulated surface which is not connected to earth.
• During work on a motor or its power supply
cables, check that the power supply of the
corresponding drive is disconnected and locked.
• All protective covers must remain in place during
tests.
• After connecting the power, reposition any cable
bush plates which can be moved, to prevent the entry of
foreign bodies through the back of the cabinet.
There are very few maintenance and repair operations to be

performed by the user on POWERDRIVE MD drives. Regular
servicing operations are described below.
6.1 - Servicing
Printed circuits and the drive components do not normally
require any maintenance. Contact your vendor or the nearest
approved repair company in the event of a problem.
CAUTION:
Do not dismantle the printed circuits while the drive is
still under warranty, as this would then immediately
become null and void.
Do not touch the integrated circuits or the microprocessor
either with your fingers or with materials which are charged or
live. Earth yourself, as well as the workbench or the soldering
iron, when performing any work on the circuits.
From time to time, with the drive powered down, check that
the power connections are correctly tightened. The door
filters must be checked and changed regularly according to
their condition.
The drive is fitted with both a water circuit drainage system
and a condensate drain pan. For full information on servicing
the cooling circuit, refer to section 2.3.3.
6.2 - Storage
If the drive has been stored for more than 12 months, it is
essential to switch it on for 24 hours (power and control), and
repeat this operation every 6 months.
