1336 PLUS-6.16 - September, 2001
Introduction 1-5
Drive Rating Qualifications
Several factors can affect drive rating. If more than one factor exists,
derating percentages must be multiplied. For example, if a 14-amp drive is
installed at a 2km (6,600 ft.) altitude and has a 2% high-input line voltage,
the actual amp rating is:
14 x 94% altitude derating x 96% high-input line derating = 12.6 amps.
User Supplied Enclosures
1336 PLUS II drives installed in user supplied enclosures may be mounted
within an enclosure or may be mounted to allow the heat sink
to extend
outside the enclosure
.
Use the information in the 1336 PLUS II User
Manual (1336 PLUS-5.3) to help determine if a possible enclosure sizing or
derating problem exists.
Conventions
To help differentiate parameter names and display text in this manual, the
following conventions will be used.
• Parameter Names will appear in [brackets].
• Display Text will appear in “quotes”.
The following is a list of conventions used throughout this manual, and
definitions of the conventions. For a list of terminology and definitions,
refer to the Glossary in the back of this manual.
Auxiliary Input
The Auxiliary Input is a terminal connection on the Control Interface
Board. This connection provides an external input for use as an Auxiliary
Interlock. Unless this interlock is closed, the drive will be faulted with an
AuxiliaryFault.
Auxiliary Interlock
The Auxiliary Interlock is a user supplied circuit consisting of reset,
overload, or other interlocking circuitry. The interlock is wired to the drive
Auxiliary input.
Bit
A bit is a single character or status point used in programmable logic. Eight
bits form a BYTE, 16 bits form a word. Drive parameters are actually eight
bits or 16 bit words.
Check
To check means to examine either the physical condition of something or
the setting of some control, such as a Parameter. Checking a drive board or
component may also require measurements and tests.
Connector
A connector connects one drive board to another. Connectors come in two
designs, male and female. Male connectors are stationary and contain pins,
which are sometimes joined by jumpers. Female connectors are at the ends
of wires or ribbon cables and plug into male connectors.
