(2) Hardware security requirements
Device Attributes and Compliance: POSIDRIVE ® The FDS and MDS series are power electronic and electrical components used for energy flow regulation in high-voltage systems. They only supply power to servo motors (MDS) and asynchronous motors (FDS, MDS). Their use, installation, operation, and maintenance must comply with current regulations, legal requirements, applicable standards, and this technical document. They belong to the restricted sales category products specified in IEC 61800-3 and may cause high-frequency interference in residential areas. Users need to take appropriate measures.
High voltage safety: It is strictly prohibited to open the casing or disconnect the connection when the equipment is live; When installing or disassembling the option board, the device must be powered off (all power plugs disconnected) and wait for at least 5 minutes before operation; The equipment must be properly configured and installed in order to function properly. Transportation, installation, debugging, and operation are only allowed to be carried out by qualified personnel who have received specialized training.
Grounding and Protection: The equipment protection level is protective grounding, and the protective conductor must be connected according to regulations. It cannot operate directly on the IT network; Installation work can only be carried out in a power-off state. When working on the transmission system, it is necessary to lock the enable and disconnect the entire transmission system power supply (following 5 safety rules); Even without using DC link coupling, it is necessary to maintain its plug connection (BG0-BG2: X22); If the discharge time of the DC link capacitor exceeds 5 minutes, it is forbidden to insert any object into the interior of the equipment to avoid short circuits or equipment failures.
Environmental and installation regulations: When installing or performing other work inside the switchgear, the equipment must be protected from falling parts (such as wires, stranded wires, metal fragments, etc.); Before debugging, additional coverings need to be removed to prevent the equipment from overheating; The equipment needs to be installed inside the switchgear, and the ambient temperature should not exceed the specified technical parameter values; Only copper wire can be used, and the cross-sectional area of the wire must comply with the requirements of 60 ° C or 75 ° C in NEC standard 310-16 table.
Motor protection and circuit limitations: The motor must be equipped with an overall temperature monitor (basic insulation) that complies with EN 61800-5-1, or use external motor overload protection; The equipment is only suitable for power supply networks with a maximum symmetrical rated short-circuit current not exceeding 5000A (480V); Built in solid-state short-circuit protection does not provide branch circuit protection. Branch circuit protection should be provided according to the manufacturer's instructions, national electrical specifications, and local additional specifications. When using RK1 level fuses (see technical parameters section), it is suitable for circuits with a maximum root mean square symmetrical current of 10kA and 480V.

Installation points
(1) Mechanical installation
Position requirement: Install vertically inside the enclosed switchgear, leaving a minimum free space (100mm up/down, 5mm left/right; 120mm below with EMC shielding board).
Accessory installation: Before installing the optional modules (fieldbus, I/O terminals), power off and discharge are required, and touching the gold-plated contacts is prohibited; The depth of the bottom braking resistor (RB 5000) is increased by about 20mm, and the EMC shielding board can be replaced with a 24V braking module.
(2) Electrical installation
EMC measures: Separate power lines from signal lines, use shielded wires for motor cables with a large area of shielding layer, and shield brake resistor cables exceeding 30cm.
Power and protection: Use RK1 level fuses (such as Bussmann KTS-R series), and choose 300/500mA or delayed RCD circuit breakers.
DC link coupling: Only three-phase equipment can be coupled, and parameter A38 (set 1 for group 2/3) needs to be set. In case of a fault, the entire power supply needs to be disconnected, and fuses need to be replaced in pairs.
Safe torque shutdown: achieved through the ASP 5001 option, requiring dual shutdown (enable+option), with at least one functional test per month.
