Parameter Reference

Active Front End (AFE)

Control Screen
Setup:: Regen Control
Monitor:: Regen Control

Active Front End (AFE) is a mode of operation of the drive required for full 4-Q regeneration capabilities. AFE control mode allows a single
AC30P/AC30D drive to act as a 4-Q power supply unit that is capable of drawing (motoring) and supplying (regenerating) sinusoidal, near-unity
power factor current from the supply. The output from the 4-Q Regen drive acts as a DC supply which is used to power other drives on a common
DC Bus system.

AFE Control Mode is available as a standard option in the AC30P/AC30D firmware, however set-up and installation requirements need to be
adhered to in order to use a drive as 4-Q regen unit. These requirements are described in more detail in the paragraphs that follow.

Hardware Requirements

The figure below shows the typical installation configuration of the drive operating in AFE control mode.

Line sync card (LA471892U001)

Drive Set-up

Typically the system will contain an AC30P/AC30D regen drive providing 4-Q power supply, and one or more drives on the common DC bus.

D-4

Parameter Reference

ALL

drives in the system

MUST

have their internal EMC “Y” caps to earth disconnected.

A 4-Q regen drive is set into AFE control mode by setting the

Control Mode “Motor Type or AFE”

parameter to AFE as shown in picture below.

This setting must be accompanied by selection of an appropriate AFE macro from the default application:

If the “Motor Type or AFE” and “Selected Application” do not match, it would not be possible to operate the drive correctly.Both these settings are
necessary for proper configuration of the drive to work as an active front end.

When drive is in AFE mode, its current rating is limited to 85% of the equivalent set up current rating when in one of the motor modes.

The standard set of AFE parameters required to finalise the drive AFE configuration are located within

Setup/Regen Control

menu. Based on the

“AFE Current Control” bit, AFE would operate in voltage control mode (left), or current control mode (right):

AFE inductance parameter must be set to the value of the total line choke inductance.

Parameter Reference

D-5

AFE VDC Demand parameter sets the required DC link voltage for the common DC link bus. Recommended level for nominal drive voltage rating of
400V (with 820V overvoltage trip level and 410V undervoltage trip level) is 720V.

AFE VDC Min Level parameter defines the level of DC link voltage at which external precharge closure is instigated. By default it is equal to
undervoltage trip level.

For any additional adjustments (if required) the full set of the AFE related parameters can be found in the

Parameters::Regen Control::AFE

menu.

Other (

non-AFE

) drives, supplied through common DC bus

MUST

have the following set-up:

DC Link volts limit feature disabled

If in V/Hz mode the Terminal Voltage Mode parameter set to FIXED

AFE Application

A standard AFE macro (App_5_AFE_Control) is included as part of the default application. It provides necessary application layer logic to operate in
AFE control mode. This macro can be modified (if necessary) using standard AC30 PDQ or PDD tools. It enables the user immediate operation
without any additional diagram logic wiring, providing that electrical connections to digital inputs and outputs are the same as in default AFE macro.

D-6

Parameter Reference

The default macro requires the following electrical wiring diagram for AC30P/AC30D control board. Use of different inputs will need to be
accompanied by the appropriate change in the application.

AFE Start Up Sequence

In order to minimise the potential occurrence of initial current transients when AFE is switched on, an “AFE Start Settings” block was included in the
default macro. It works in conjunction with the following four soft parameters:

1943 AFE Current Limit

1944 AFE Current Loop P Gain

1945 AFE Stack Frequency

1946 AFE Default Stack Frequency

AFE Default Macro Setup Parameters

These soft parameters have to be populated with the values that are required for operation in normal running mode, before first start of AFE mode is
attempted!

Start up values are set as constants within the macro, and can only be changed by reprogramming AFE application into the drive. Soft parameter
1946 AFE Default Stack Frequency allows the user to specify if drive should operate (post start up) with its default switching frequency, or with a
different one, as specified in soft parameter 1945.

It is, by default, set that start up is finished after 1.5 seconds since the run command has taken effect.

D-10

Parameter Reference

Line Synchronisation

Typically the system will contain an AC30P/AC30D regen drive providing 4-Q power supply, and one or more drives on the common DC bus.
However, in order for the AFE control procedures to operate correctly, a synchronization of the IGBT firing sequence to the three phase mains
supply voltage frequency, angle, and direction of rotation need to be performed. This is achieved by using a line sync card (LA471892U001),
connected to a standard AC30 encoder option board (7004-04-00). Failure to successfully synchronise could cause significant supply distortion, poor
power factor, or even catastrophic failure.
