ABB Chapter 1 - Overview
As a standard solution, the ACS 1000 has many of the benefits associated
with engineered converters already included. This meets the most
common system specifications with minimal engineering. In addition,
because the converter is pre-engineered, shorter delivery times to end-
users are possible.
The ACS 1000 is available in air-cooled and water-cooled versions. The
air-cooled ACS 1000 delivers output powers up to 2400 kVA and is also
available with an integrated input transformer. The water-cooled ACS
1000 covers the power range up to 6000 kVA.
The ACS 1000i is an air-cooled version with integrated input transformer
and (optional) input contactor.

ABB Chapter 1 - Overview
About 85% of all medium voltage converters are applied in standard appli-
cations such as fans, pumps, conveyors and compressors, where the
customized engineering content is minimal. The ACS 1000 is ideally
suitable for retrofit applications, where only a small portion of the world’s
motors are fitted with converters.
The following industries can benefit from this approach:
a. The power ratings apply to typical 4-pole motors. For those motors, the frequency
converter has a built-in overloadability of 10%. When selecting the frequency converter,
it should be observed that the rated current of the ACS 1000 must be higher than or
equal to the rated motor current in order to achieve the rated motor power given in the
table.
Note: Derating factors may apply. For details see Technical data.
20
ABB Chapter 1 - Overview
The ACS 1000 is available for use with a separately mounted input
isolation transformer (standard) or alternatively with an integrated dry-type
transformer. This provides installation flexibility and allows for the use of
oil-filled transformers which are typically mounted outdoors.
The ACS 1000 meets all common standards including IEC and EN. In
order to meet the requirements of the North American market, the
ACS 1000 is also UL and Canadian UL listed. In addition, ABB has under-
taken much development work to ensure that the converter adequately
meets the requirements of the world’s harmonics standards, such as
IEEE 519-1992.
For details refer to ACS 1000 - Applicable codes and standards.
The ACS 1000 features a selection of preprogrammed and standardized
application macros for the configuration of inputs, outputs, signal
processing and other parameters.
• Diagnostics system:
A comprehensive self-diagnostic monitoring system generates error
messages with information on error type and location. This enables
quick and precise localization of disturbances and reduces time spent
on fault finding. See Chapter 2 - Functional description, operation,
2.3.2 Diagnostics.
Top performance Fast and accurate process control in combination with low energy
consumption results in top performance.
Fast and accurate process control based on DTC results in high and
constant production quality and minimum machinery wear. DTC
guarantees:
• Highly dynamic response times without overshoot
• Accurate static speed and torque control
• Smooth output current waveforms resulting in minimum torque ripple.
Low maintenance cost Maintenance costs are minimized thanks to extended maintenance
periods, low number of maintenance tasks and the possibility to perform
maintenance tasks on the running system.
What you need is what Customer requirements are precisely met. The flexible design with
you get standard converter components and well-proven control platform allows
optimum configuration of the converter system.

Torque step rise time Torque step rise time is Torque step rise time
less than 3 ms at 70% closed loop: 10 to 20 ms
speed sensorless: 100 to
200 ms
Other DTC benefits Other major features and benefits of DTC are:
• High speed accuracy: typically 0.1% of nominal speed (without speed
encoder)
• High torque performance
Full torque at zero speed and very fast torque step response time of
<10 milliseconds
• Robust control method
DTC is extremely robust and compensates disturbances and inaccu-
racies on supply, motor and load side. This avoids nuisance tripping
and increases the reliability of the ACS 1000.
• Low audible motor noise and negligible low torque ripple by avoiding
dedicated modulation frequencies
• Minimum inverter switching losses at maximum control performance.
DTC provides fast control without requiring high switching frequency.
This is possible because control is NOT based on a fixed PWM
modulation frequency. Instead, switching takes place exactly when
needed. Conventional PWM control would need >10 kHz switching
frequency for equivalent performance.

ABB Chapter 2 - Functional description, operation
Acceleration and ACS 1000 provides two user-selectable acceleration and deceleration
deceleration ramps ramps. It is possible to adjust the acceleration / deceleration times (setting
values: 0...1800 s) and select the ramp shape. The value has to be
selected depending on the process. Switching between the two ramps can
be controlled via a digital input.
Motor
The available ramp shapes are: speed
Full torque at zero A motor fed by the ACS 1000 can develop short-term motor nominal
speed torque at start-up without any pulse encoder feedback. This feature is
essential for constant torque applications. However, if permanent
operation at zero speed is required, a pulse encoder has to be used.
38
ABB Chapter 2 - Functional description, operation
Flying start This feature allows a rotating motor (e.g. a turbo-pump or a fan) to be
taken over by the ACS 1000. By means of the flying start function the
frequency of the motor is detected and the motor is started-up again by the
ACS 1000.
Critical speed The critical speed function is needed for applications where it is necessary
to avoid certain motor speeds or speed bands, for example due to
mechanical resonance problems. The ACS 1000 makes it possible to set
up five different speed settings or speed bands which will be avoided
during operation.
Motor
speed
Each critical speed setting allows the (rpm)
user to define a low and a high speed 1560
limit. If the speed reference signal 1380
requires the ACS 1000 to operate
within this speed range the critical
speeds function will keep the 690
ACS 1000 operating at the low (or 540
high) limit until the reference is out of Speed
reference
the critical speed range. The motor is (rpm)
accelerated/decelerated through the s 1 Low s1 High s2 Low s2 High
critical speed band according to the 540 690 1380 1560
acceleration or deceleration ramp.
Flux optimization Flux optimization of the ACS 1000 reduces the total energy consumption
and motor noise level when the converter operates below the nominal
load. The total efficiency (ACS 1000 and motor) can be improved by
1...10%, depending on the load torque and speed. This function is
activated by parameters.
Auxiliary ride-through The auxiliary ride-through function guarantees correct fault indication and
proper trip sequencing in the event that the auxiliary power source feeding
the converter is lost. The function is activated by a parameter. During ride-
through the power for the control circuits of the ACS 1000 is supplied by
internal batteries. The ride-through time is limited to 5 sec.
Automatic restart The ACS 1000 can automatically reset itself after an undervoltage has
occurred. This function is activated by two parameters, one to enable the
automatic restart function, and one to select the undervoltage waiting time
(adjustable between 0 and 600 s).
If the automatic restart feature is activated and an undervoltage is
detected in the DC link, the waiting time is started. If the voltage recovers
within the selected time, the fault will be reset automatically and the
converter resumes normal operation. If the waiting time has elapsed and
the voltage has not recovered the converter is tripped and the MCB is
opened.

ABB Chapter 2 - Functional description, operation
Reference signal The ACS 1000 can handle a variety of speed reference schemes in
processing addition to the conventional analog input signal and control panel signals.
• The ACS 1000 reference can be given using two digital inputs:
one digital input increases the speed, the other decreases it. The
active reference is memorized by the control software.
• The ACS 1000 can form a reference out of two analog input signals
by using mathematical functions: addition, subtraction, multiplication,
minimum selection, and maximum selection.
Macros • Hand/Auto
• User 1
• User 2
Local control When the converter is switched to local control, local operation from the
ON/OFF pushbuttons on the converter front door and from the CDP
control panel is possible. In local operation mode, no remote control
command will be accepted.
38
ABB Chapter 2 - Functional description, operation
Remote control When the converter is switched to remote control, local operation from the
pushbutton on the front door of the control unit and from the control panel
is disabled. All commands like close/open main circuit breaker, start/stop
or speed reference values are only received through the remote control
interface, either via hardwired I/Os or via fieldbus.
Emergency off The local emergency off switch on the front door of the control unit is active
in local and remote mode.
Start and stop The converter can be started and stopped either manually from the local
sequences control panels or from a remote overriding control system.
If all preconditions for energization are fulfilled, the converter can be
switched on by pressing the local ON button.

2.3.2 Diagnostics
Fault logger In the event of an alarm or a fault in the ACS 1000 or in the equipment
monitored by the converter, a specific message can be saved in the fault
logger. Information on the 64 most recent alarm and fault events can be
stored.
The messages can be called up on local CDP control panel of the
ACS 1000 or they can be viewed with one of the following PC-based tools:
DriveWindow, DriveDebug or DriveMonitorTM.
Data loggers The ACS 1000 provides two data loggers. Each data logger is capable of
monitoring up to six different analog or binary signals. Sample time and
trigger level for each signal can be adjusted independently.
The data loggers are set up and their content viewed either using the
DriveWindow or DriveDebug tool.
Actual signal Three signals can be displayed simultaneously on the control panel.

Underload Loss of motor load may indicate a process malfunction. The ACS 1000
provides an underload function to protect the machinery and the process
in such a serious fault condition. This monitoring function checks if the
motor load is above the specified load curve. 5 different load curves can
be selected by the customer.
Monitoring limits: underload curve and underload time can be chosen as
well as the converter response to the underload condition (alarm / trip
indication and stop the converter / no reaction).
The protection is activated if all the following conditions are fulfilled simul-
taneously:
1. The motor load is below the underload curve selected by the user
(see Figure 2-11).
2. The motor load has been below the selected underload curve longer
than the time set by the user (underload time).

Overspeed The motor speed as determined by DTC is monitored. If the motor speed
exceeds the maximum permitted motor speed (user adjustable) a trip is
initiated.
Undervoltage In order to detect a loss of the main power supply, the positive and
negative DC link voltage levels are monitored. If these voltage levels drop
below 70% of their nominal levels, an undervoltage alarm is initiated and
power loss ride-through is activated (provided it is selected) (refer to 2.2.5
Ride-through functions). If the DC link voltage levels drop below 65% of
their nominal values, an undervoltage trip is initiated.
Motor overload The 3-phase RMS value of the motor current is monitored and compared
with three adjustable thresholds. A pickup delay for each threshold can
also be set. In case an overload is detected, an alarm message will be
displayed and the converter will be shut down.
Monitoring limit values The values of user selectable signals can be monitored for adjustable low
and high limits:
• two speed values
• current value
• two torque values
• two reference values
• two actual values of the PID controller
The digital status of the active limit appears on the control panel display
and can also be allocated to a digital output.
Overvoltage The levels of the positive and negative DC link voltage are monitored to
detect whether an improper overvoltage condition develops. If these
voltage levels rise above 130% of their nominal levels an overvoltage trip
is initiated. On rare occasions, a combination of conditions can result in
the motor entering a self excitation mode that can cause the DC link
voltage to continue to rise, despite the fact that a trip has been initiated. If
this condition occurs and if the DC link voltage levels rise above 135% of
their nominal levels, a second overvoltage trip is initiated that causes the
inner 6 IGCTs to be gated simultaneously such, that the motor windings
are effectively shunted together. This eliminates the self excitation voltage
that is causing the DC link voltage levels to rise.
Short circuit in the A short circuit in the rectifier bridge is detected by monitoring the DC link
rectifier bridge voltage. If a short circuit is detected, a trip is initiated and the converter is
disconnected from the supply voltage.
Charging fault The intermediate DC link voltage is monitored while the DC link is
energized. If the voltage does not reach a certain level after a preset time,
a trip is initiated.
38
ABB Chapter 2 - Functional description, operation
Supply phase loss If the voltage ripple in the intermediate DC link rises above a preset level,
a trip is initiated because a supply phase may be lost.
Overcurrent Inverter phase currents are monitored. If a preset level is exceeded, a trip
is initiated. This protection is implemented both in software and in
hardware.
Inverter temperature In order to insure that the inverter section does not exceed the temper-
ature limits, the current is monitored and limited to the maximum permitted
level.
Air cooling Temperature and fan pressure are monitored to ensure proper function.
Water cooling The operating condition of the cooling circuit is monitored. If any of the
monitored signals such as water temperature, water pressure or conduc-
tivity exceed a preset limit, a trip is initiated. In addition, the status of the
cooling water pumps, the water level in the expansion vessel and the
auxiliary fan are monitored.
Short circuit of the The inverter is monitored to ensure that a short circuit condition does not
inverter exist. If a short circuit is detected a trip is initiated.
Ground fault The current in the output filter ground leg is monitored and compared with
two thresholds. The first threshold is set to a fixed percentage of the peak
value of the nominal inverter current. The second threshold is adjustable
and compared with the RMS value of the ground current. If the ground
current exceeds one of the thresholds the converter will be shut down.
The ground fault detection includes the ACS 1000 transformer secondary
side and the motor.
Operating system The operating system of the microprocessor board monitors different
functions within the control software and will initiate a trip if a malfunction
is detected. Such faults are displayed as “Control SW fault”. Should one
of these faults be detected during operation, the converter should be
restarted.
Communication fault Except for the measurement boards all communication links are realized
by DDCS (Distributed Drive Control System). A trip is initiated if one of
these links fails.
Measurement loss On the ADCVI board (analog digital conversion for voltage and current)
analog signals are converted into digital signals. The digital signals are
then transmitted via PPCC (fiber-optic bus system) to the interface board
which is the main interface to the converter control system.
In order to guarantee proper operation of the protection functions included
in the converter, the status of the communication is monitored on the
interface board. If a fault is detected a trip is initiated.
Motor winding and The motor can be protected from overheating by activating the motor
bearing temperature winding temperature monitoring function.
The ACS 1000 provides analog inputs for measuring and monitoring the
motor winding and bearing temperature.
Values for alarm and trip levels can be set.
For further information refer to Chapter 6 - Options, 6.5 Motor side.
Process stop A process stop button or relay can be connected to a predefined input of
the ACS 1000. The actual process stop input must be closed during
normal operation. If the digital input opens, the converter control initiates
a stop command. The stop mode (ramp stop, stop at torque limit, or coast
stop) can be selected by a parameter. The main circuit breaker is opened
when the converter has come to a stop.
External emergency off The normally closed (NC) contacts of external emergency off switches can
be wired into the tripping loop.
For further details see Chapter 4 - Control system and process interfaces.
Parameter lock The user can prevent unwanted parameter changes by activating the
Parameter Lock function.

Raw water
cooling circuit
Water cooling system The cooling system consists of the following circuits:
• The raw water cooling circuit transfers the heat losses from the
water-to-water heat exchanger in the WCU to the exterior. The water
flow through the heat exchanger is controlled by a two-way valve. The
circuit is designed for the use of industrial cooling water.
• The internal cooling water circuit is filled with deionized water and
transfers the heat losses of the main power components to the water-
to-water heat exchanger. The closed circuit is equipped with a
pressurized expansion vessel.
Optionally, the cooling circuit can be filled with a glycol water mixture
for frost-proofing.
• The internal cooling water treatment circuit continuously de-
ionizes the internal cooling water to keep the conductivity at a low
level. The circuit includes the make-up water connection.
Air cooling system • The auxiliary air-to-water heat exchanger and the internal air circu-
lation fan are used for removal of all remaining heat out of the
ACS 1000 via the raw water circuit. Therefore, virtually no heat losses
are dissipated into the control room (typically < 1 kW, depending on
room and water temperature).

AMC controller The control system is based on ABB’s well-proven Application and Motor
Controller (AMC), see Figure 4-39. Fitted with a 150 MHz Motorola DSP
processor, the controller is equipped with two PPCS and eight DDCS
communication channels. PPCS (Power Plate Communication System)
and DDCS (Distributed Drive Control System) are acronyms for serial
communication protocols tailored for high speed data transfer via fiber
optic cables, namely with:
• Converter control interfaces
• Higher-level process control systems via advant or fieldbus adapters
• I/O devices, see section 4.4 Customer I/O interfaces
• Service tools (e.g. DriveWindow, DriveMonitorTM)
76
ABB Chapter 4 - Control system and process interfaces
Control panel The AMC controller communicates with the CDP control panel (see
Figure 4-39 and Figure 4-41) which is mounted on the door of the control
unit. The control panel serves as a local user interface for monitoring,
control and operation of the converter and setting of parameters. The
communication of the AMC controller with the control panel is accom-
plished via a RS-485 link. For further information refer also to section 4.3.1
CDP control panel.
General control tasks General control, protection and monitoring tasks regarding the whole
converter as well as all rectifier and line related functions of the converter
are implemented in the AMC controller. These tasks include control and
monitoring of:
• Main Circuit Breaker (MCB)
• Grounding switch
• Door interlocking
• Cooling system

Programmable analog Two programmable analog outputs on each IOEC board are at the user’s
outputs disposal.
Depending on the setting of the corresponding parameters, the analog
output signals can represent for example:
• motor speed, process speed (scaled motor speed), output frequency,
output current, motor torque, motor power, DC link voltage, output
voltage, application block output (process PID controller output),
active reference, reference deviation (difference between the
reference and the actual value of the process PID controller).
The selected analog output signals can be inverted and filtered. The
minimum signal level can be set to 0 mA, 4 mA or 10 mA.

ABB Chapter 4 - Control system and process interfaces
Fault handler The fault handler classifies each detected event and allocates each regis-
tered fault to one of several predefined fault classes. The fault classes
determine if the main circuit breaker opens in case of a fault or not. Upon
an event, the fault handler updates the fault logger and the alarm and fault
words of the AMC table and accesses the Main state machine which in
turn coordinates the reaction of the converter.
Refer to Chapter 2 - Functional description, operation, 2.4.1 Alarm and
fault handling for further information.
Main state machine The Main State Machine (MSM) is a predefined program serving as the
prime control place for converter control systems based on the AMC
controller. The MSM is called up cyclically by the operating system, reads
the drive command words and controls the converter functions such as
start, stop and fault sequences, DC link charging and discharging etc.
according to the internal state of the converter. It determines the optimum
reaction on any event or fault occurring in the converter.

ABB
5.1 Overview
This chapter describes the requirements for system components which
are not included in the converter scope of supply. Further information on
the requirements for system components are available in the following
specifications:
The opening command from the converter to the MCB - pulse or steady
state signal - is reset as soon as the status feedback MCB IS OPEN has
been received. The command MCB ORDER TRIP is initiated to open the
MCB if the feedback signal has not arrived after a preset time.
The MCB ORDER TRIP is a steady state true signal. When in low status,
it directly opens the MCB.
MCB control fault All opening and closing commands to the MCB are monitored for time-out.
An alarm or fault message comes up on the display of the CDP control
panel if there is something wrong in connection with the control of the
MCB.
ACS 1000 tripping loop The following ACS 1000 contacts are wired to the tripping loop:
signals
• Digital output "MCB ORDER TRIP"
• Emergency off switch on the ACS 1000 front door
84
ABB Chapter 5 - Engineering information
Customer signals The following signals from customer devices can, but do not have to, be
wired to the tripping loop terminals:
• External emergency off
• Transformer protection trip
Special attention must be paid to the motor cooling in variable speed appli-
cations. If the motor is self-ventilated, long-time operation at low speeds
will usually require some derating to compensate for the reduced cooling.
Depending on the mechanical configuration of the motor, load, gearbox
and shaft, there may be some critical speeds within the operating speed
range of the converter. The critical speeds have to be known and if they
have to be avoided, the appropriate parameter settings have to be made.
Special attention has to be paid to variable speed applications using two-
pole motors, since there is usually a critical motor speed below its rated
speed. For more information see Chapter 2 - Functional description,
operation, Critical speed, page 27.
5.4.2 Retrofit
Due to its specific topology, the ACS 1000 can supply standard medium
voltage motors (existing or new) without applying thermal derating factors.
In addition, due to its sinusoidal output waveform, standard medium
voltage winding insulation is sufficient.
To avoid risk of bearing currents and related consequential damages, one
motor bearing should be insulated (the one at the non-driven shaft end).
This is actually a typical accessory even for most direct-on-line operated
motors. If, nevertheless, such a bearing is not available (e.g. for older
existing motors), a grounding brush can be installed on either shaft end.

Chapter 6 - Options
6.1 Overview
This section provides an overview of the main options available for the
ACS 1000. A complete list of all available options is provided in the Type
Code.
Extended raw water The extended raw water temperature range is +27...+38 °C
temperature (+80...+100 °F). For deratings refer to Technical data.
Corrosion protected For certain environmental conditions (e.g. salty air in combination with
busbars increased ambient temperature and high humidity) corrosion protected
busbars can be chosen instead of the standard type. This choice is
relevant for all power and grounding busbars of the converter.
Coated PCBs For certain environmental conditions (e.g. salty air in combination with
increased ambient temperature and high humidity) the printed circuit
boards (PCBs) can be ordered with a special varnish.
Cabinet color Other RAL colors and paint thicknesses are available optionally and must
be specified explicitly when ordered.
Cabinet paint finish The standard converter has painted front doors. Optionally, the entire
cabinet exterior is available with painted surfaces.
Split cabinet The water-cooled ACS 1000 can be delivered split into two sections if the
standard converter size exceeds the transportation limits. All materials
necessary for joining the two parts are supplied with the converter.
Extended grounding The standard grounding busbar which is located in the power cable termi-
busbar nation section of the ACS 1000 can be extended throughout the medium
voltage sections of the ACS 1000.
Additional cabinet The ACS 1000 can be delivered with an additional cabinet for optional
equipment, such as input or output isolators, additional terminals,
additional line or motor side protection equipment, or other customer
specific devices.
Two different sizes (644 mm and 844 mm width) are available. The
additional cabinet is mounted to the left side of the ACS 1000. The cabinet
is equipped with mounting profiles to have flexibility for the interior design.
The additional cabinet can be provided for power and/or control
equipment.
102
ABB Chapter 6 - Options
Undrilled entry plates Undrilled entry plates are available in various materials. Refer to the Type
Code for more information.
Extended transformer In addition to the standard signal “Transformer Protection Trip” (wired into
monitoring interface tripping loop), the signals according to Table 6-9 can be included
optionally in the signal interface between the transformer and the
ACS 1000.
Note: This option requires the IOEC3 board.
The analog input "Oil Temperature" is suitable for an actual value in the
range of 0..20 mA / 4..20 mA (or 0..10 V / 2..10 V) and can be used
instead of the digital temperature alarm and trip inputs. The analog signal
is monitored by the ACS 1000 for alarm or trip levels.
Refer to Temperature transducers for PT100, page 97, if a temperature
transducer for PT100 is required.
Common mode choke This option is needed if the cable length between the converter trans-
former and the ACS 1000 exceeds the following limits:
• 30 m (98 ft.) for ACS 1000, 12-pulse versions and
• 20 m (66 ft.) for ACS 1000, 24-pulse versions
If the cables are longer than the limits below, the ABB representative
should be contacted:
• 200 m (656 ft.) for ACS 1000, 12-pulse versions and
• 150 m (492 ft.) for ACS 1000, 24-pulse, (water-cooled types only)
The common mode choke functions like a transformer. Together with the
common mode damping resistor it provides damping of the common mode
voltages and limits the common mode currents experienced by the main
power transformer and transformer secondary cables.
102
ABB Chapter 6 - Options
The analog inputs are suitable for actual values in the range of 0..20 mA /
4..20 mA (or 0..10 V / 2..10 V) and are monitored by the ACS 1000 for
alarm and trip levels.
Refer to Temperature transducers for PT100, page 97, if temperature
transducers for PT100 are required.
The module is fed from the ACS 1000 internal control power supply.
Increased output The ACS 1000 can be ordered with an increased output frequency of
frequency 82.5 Hz as a maximum. This option requires an optimized sine filter
configuration.
Braking chopper Effective motor braking and short deceleration times can be achieved by
using resistor braking. For resistor braking, the ACS 1000 must be
equipped with a braking chopper and a braking resistor.
Braking choppers are available for all ACS 1000 types.
The operation of the braking chopper is controlled by the ACS 1000
control system. The braking chopper hardware is located in an additional
cabinet.
The input currents of the braking chopper are monitored for overcurrent
and unbalance in order to detect any defective component in the circuit. In
case a short circuit or an unbalanced voltage in the braking chopper is
detected a converter trip is initiated.
Braking chopper and braking resistors are each monitored for overtemper-
ature by means of thermal models. Alarm and trip levels are determined
and set during commissioning.
For more information about braking chopper and braking resistor, see the
resistor specification or contact your ABB representative.
Braking resistor The braking resistor has to be specified individually for each project by the
factory. For further information contact your ABB representative.

Redundant cooling The redundant cooling fans are an option intended for applications where
fans (ACS 1000i) enhanced reliability of the installation is required.
The redundant fan units (always two units) are supplied as separate units
to be mounted on top of the ACS 1000i (see Chapter 1 - Overview,
Figure 1-3). If delivered together with the ACS 1000i, all four fans (the two
standard fans and the two optional fan units) are delivered separately.
With this option, continuous operation of the converter is guaranteed even
if one fan fails. Switch-over from the faulty to the stand-by device takes
place automatically. To replace the faulty unit, the converter must be
stopped. The replacement of a fan takes about 30 minutes.
Redundant cooling The water-cooled ACS 1000 can be equipped with a second pump [P2] in
pump (ACS 1000W) the cooling water circuit. This option is needed when continuous operation
of the converter is required in case of a pump failure in the cooling unit.
The redundant pump is installed in the cooling unit of the ACS 1000.
Redundant cooling fan The water-cooled ACS 1000 can be ordered with a redundant cooling fan,
(ACS 1000W) if continuous operation is required in case a fan fails.
The redundant fan unit is supplied as a separate unit and is mounted on
top of the ACS 1000. This option is needed when continuous operation of
the converter is required in case of a fan failure.

3-way valve The cooling unit of the ACS 1000 can be ordered with a 3-way valve in the
(ACS 1000W) raw water circuit. This option is required if the raw water flow must be kept
at a constant rate. If the cooling unit is equipped with a 3-way valve, the
water-to-water heat exchanger is bypassed and the total raw water flow is
kept constant even if the water flow in the heat exchanger varies.
Raw water circuit The material of the raw water circuit is stainless steel (AISI316).
(ACS 1000W)
Raw water connection Connecting flanges mounted to the right side of the ACS 1000. Counter
flanges (ACS 1000W) flanges are provided.
This option cannot be ordered in combination with the option braking
chopper.
Raw water shut-off Shut-off valves mounted between the connection flanges and their
valves (ACS 1000W) counter flanges.
Space heater for A space heater is typically required in places/countries with high ambient
tropicalized version humidity. It is switched on automatically when the converter is not in
operation in order to prevent condensation.
The heater consists of several heating elements with a rated power of
100 W each rated for 110...240 VAC supply voltage (50 / 60 Hz).
Monitored air filter The air-cooled ACS 1000 can be supplied with air filter mats which have
(ACS 1000A/i) a finer mesh than the standard air filter mat. There are filter mats available
with a 10 μm and a 12 μm fine mesh.
The optional air filter mats should be selected if the air contamination level
exceeds IEC 721-3-3, Class 3C2 (for chemical gases) or IEC 721-3-3,
Class 3S1 (for solid particles).
Air filter mats with finer mesh are monitored by measuring the pressure
difference across the filter. An alarm is displayed if the filter is clogged.
The filter mat which is mounted at the converter air intake can be changed
while the converter is in operation.
If the ACS 1000 is ordered with an air filter with finer mesh, the derating of
the converter output power needs to be considered (see Technical data,
Environment).
The bypass cabinet which is attached to the left hand side of the
ACS 1000 houses the following control hardware:
• Interface for external commands and feedback signals
• Signal interface(s) for the control of motor and bypass breakers
• Control unit for synchronizing and switching coordination
• Optional voltage measuring equipment

7.4.1 General
The connection from the mains supply to the ACS 1000 consists of six
basic elements:
• Main circuit breaker / controller
• Instrumentation and protection equipment
• Transformer primary cables
• Transformer
• Transformer secondary cables
• Cable termination - ACS 1000

Chapter 7 - Installation guidelines ABB
• If the cross-section of the cable shielding is less than 50% of the
cross-section of one phase, an additional grounding wire should be
laid along the power cables to avoid excessive heat losses in the
cable shieldings. Please refer to the local regulations for further
details.
Cable termination Cables must be terminated with connectors according to the cable
manufacturer’s requirements.
Ground wire Routing of the ground connection must comply with local regulations.
Control cables Control cables should not be laid in parallel to the power cables. If this
cannot be avoided, a minimum distance of 30 cm (12 inches) must be
maintained between control and power cables.
Control and power cables should be crossed at an angle of 90°.
7.4.3 ACS 1000 cable entry and termination (only ACS 1000A/W)
Access to the power termination section of the ACS 1000 is via the control
cabinet, located on the left of the converter. A bolted access door is
located behind the control swing frame. Once the access door is opened,
all power terminations are readily available. As an aid to interfacing the
main power connections, removable bus stubs are included.
Cables can be entered through the cabinet roof (see Figure 7-55) or floor
(see Figure 7-56). If the cable entry is from below, the entry plates
mounted on top of the cable termination section must be relocated to the
bottom and the bottom cover plate must be fixed to the top of the cabinet.
Undrilled entry plates are available optionally. The ACS 1000i is delivered
only with undrilled entry plates.

8.2.1 ACS 1000 output filter
The standard ACS 1000 output filter is appropriate for 2 to 6-pole motors.
For higher numbers of poles a different filter configuration is sometimes
needed. The modular and flexible filter design allows the ACS 1000 to be
configured for 2 to 20-pole motors (and even higher numbers of poles). To
determine the appropriate ACS 1000 configuration please contact your
ABB representative.

standards:
• IEC 721-3-3, Class 3C2 for chemical gases
• IEC 721-3-3, Class 3S2 for solid particles
Transport
Ambient temperature -25…+55 °C (-13…+131 °F) according to IEC / EN 60721-3-2 class 2K3
Up to 70 °C for up to 24 hours
Storage
Ambient temperature -25…+55 °C (-13…+131 °F) according to IEC / EN 60721-3-1 class 1K4
Ambient temperature
The derating factor for air-cooled converters with enclosure class IP21 is
as follows:
Above +40 °C (+104 °F) the rated output current is decreased by 1.5% for
each additional 1 °C (0.85 % for each 1 °F) up to the maximum permitted
temperature of +45 °C (+113 °F).
Example: If the ambient temperature is 45 °C the derating factor is
calculated as 100% - 1.5 %/°C · 5 °C = 92.5%. Hence, the maximum
output current is 92.5% of the rated value.

* The output current depends on the application of the converter. Therefore, the
output current printed on the rating plate can be different from the value stated in
this table.
**Converter input voltage and current depend on the voltage level of the medium
voltage power supply. Besides the shown input voltages, the ACS 1000i is
available for other input voltages as well (refer to the Type Code).

Ambient temperature -25…+55 °C (-13…+131 °F) according to IEC / EN 60721-3-1 class 1K4
Ambient temperature
The derating factor for air-cooled converters with enclosure class IP21 is
as follows:
Above +40 °C (+104 °F) the rated output current is decreased by 1.5% for
each additional 1 °C (0.85 % for each 1 °F) up to the maximum permitted
temperature of +45 °C (+113 °F).
Example: If the ambient temperature is 45 °C the derating factor is
calculated as 100% - 1.5 %/°C · 5 °C = 92.5%. Hence, the maximum
output current is 92.5% of the rated value.
