10vacon • 162 ACTIVE FRONT END (NXA)10.8 Pre-Charcing circuitThe Active Front End unit requires an external pre-charging circuit. The purpose of the pre-charging unit is to charge the voltage in the intermediate circuit to a level sufficient for connectingthe Active Front End unit to the mains. The charging time depends on the capacitance of theintermediate circuit and the resistance of the charging resistors. The technical specifications ofVacon's standard pre-charging circuits are shown in Table 63. Pre-charging circuits are suitablefor 380-500 Vac and 525-690 Vac.The pre-charging components can be ordered separately. Components of the pre-charging circuitare 2 pcs charging resistors, the contactor, the diode bridge and the snubber capacitor, seeTable 64. Each pre-charging circuit has maximum charging capacity, see Table 63. If thecapacitance of the intermediate circuit in the system exceeds the values shown, please contact thenearest Vacon office.Table 63.
