11vacon • 188 Non-regenerative front endLocal contacts: http://drives.danfoss.com/danfoss-drives/local-contacts/11.11 DC pre-charging circuitEach Non-regenerative Front End unit requires its own external pre-charging circuit. The purposeof the pre-charging unit is to charge the voltage in the intermediate circuit to a level sufficient forconnecting the Non-regenerative Front End unit to the mains. The charging time depends on thecapacitance of the intermediate circuit of the total common DC-bus system and the resistance ofthe charging resistors. The technical specifications of manufacturer's standard pre-chargingcircuits are shown in Table 81. The pre-charging circuits are suitable for 400-500 Vac and 525-690Vac.The pre-charging duration and DC voltage level are monitored by the NXP control. The DC voltagelevel must be over 40VDC after 1 second charging and final pre-charging voltage level must bereached within the maximum charging time. If these conditions are not reached, a charging fault isissued. The maximum charging time can be set by a parameter.The pre-charging components can be ordered separately. The pre-charging circuit includes thefollowing components: 2 pcs charging resistors, the contactor, the diode bridge and the snubbercapacitor, see Table 82. Each pre-charging circuit has maximum charging capacity, see Table 81. Ifthe capacitance of the intermediate circuit in the total system exceeds the values shown, contactyour nearest distributor.Table 81.
