Standard Features of SPI Inverter Units

Air cooling

Standard board

Alphanumeric control panel with fiber connection

EMC Class T (EN 61800-3 for IT networks)

Safety CE / UL

External charging required

I/O Modules A1 and A2

IP00

Storage

If the inverter is to be stored before use, make sure that the ambient conditions are acceptable.

Storage temperature: -40 to 158°F (-40 to 70°C)

Relative humidity:

<95%, no condensation

If the inverter is stored for over 12 months, contact Eaton before connecting the inverter to the power supply.

Maintenance

In normal conditions, Cutler-Hammer inverters are maintenance-free. However, we recommend cleaning the heatsink with compressed air whenever necessary. The cooling fan can easily be changed if required.

It may also be necessary to check the tightening torques of terminals at certain intervals.

Technical Data

Figure 1-1presents the block diagram of the SPI9000 inverter. The inverter mechanically consists of two units, the Power Unit and the Control Unit.

The Power Unit contains an inverter bridge which consists of IGBT switches and produces symmetrical, three-phase PWM-modulated AC voltage to the motor.

The Motor and Application Control Block is based on microprocessor software. The microprocessor controls the motor based on the information it receives through measurements, parameter settings, control I/O and the control keypad. The motor and application control block control the motor control ASIC which, in turn, calculates the IGBT positions. Gate drivers amplify these signals for driving the IGBT inverter bridge.
