Chapter 1 - Safety
DANGER
DANGER indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result
in death or serious injury.
WARNING
WARNING indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could
result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION
CAUTION indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could
result in minor or moderate injury.
NOTICE
NOTICE is used to address practices not related to personal injury.
2.1 Function
The water cooling system transfers the heat of the power electronics
components of the drive to the exterior.
The heat of non-water-cooled components inside the drive is transferred
to the exterior by a fan. The air is directed to an optional enclosure cooler
that is connected to the water circuit.
Therefore, virtually no heat losses are dissipated into the control room
(typically < 1 kW, depending on room and water temperature).
If the drive is constructed for the optional enclosure class IP42, no
enclosure cooler is used. Instead, the air in the control room is used for
cooling. The heat losses of up to 7 kW are dissipated into the control room.

Function The pump circulates the coolant through the internal cooling circuit
Function The heat exchanger transfers the heat from the drive to the external
cooling circuit.
Option Water-to water or water-to-air heat exchanger, external to the cooling unit
Function The enclosure cooler is an air-to-water heat exchanger that transfers the
heat of non-water cooled enclosure to the exterior. It connects to the
external cooling circuit, the internal cooling circuit or to a separate water
supply.
Function The expansion vessel compensates for volume changes in the internal
cooling circuit (due to temperature changes, for example). Depending on
the application, it is either an open or a pressurized type (see also Types
of water cooling units).
2.4.5 Deionizer
Function The deionizer continuously purifies the coolant in the internal cooling
circuit and maintains the water conductivity at a specified level.
Control valve The control valve regulates the water temperature by controlling the raw
water flow through the heat exchanger. It is either a two-way valve or a
three-way valve.
Depending on the temperature of the internal cooling circuit,
■ the two-way valve (1 in Fig. 2-4) increases or decreases the raw
water flow through the heat exchanger,
■ the three-way valve (2 in Fig. 2-4) opens a bypass around the heat
exchanger. This allows maintaining the water flow in the external
cooling circuit at a constant level while varying the flow through the
heat exchanger.

Valve K1 (option) Valve K1 adjusts the water flow through the enclosure cooler, thus
regulating the temperature and minimizing condensation in the drive.
Safety valve F2 Safety valve F2 (1 in Fig. 2-5) is a pressure relief valve on the outside of
(option) the drive cabinet. It is installed if flanges (2 in Fig. 2-5) are used for raw
water connection and the flanges include shut-off valves (3 in Fig. 2-5).
If the shut-off valves are closed and the pressure inside the internal
cooling circuit increases above 16 bar, safety valve F2 releases excess
water.
The quantity of released water is very small, so that no additional draining
is required.
Other valves The installed shutoff valves enable work on the components of the water
cooling unit without having to drain the whole pipe system.
The valves present in the water cooling unit depend on the installed
optional equipment.
For information, see the flow diagram and the list of components in
Appendix A - Additional manuals.
Auto-cooling sequence The control system of the drive provides an auto-cooling sequence. If
enabled (auxiliary power is switched on, auto-cooling is selected in the
related parameter), the pump starts when the conductivity of the coolant
exceeds the alarm threshold. The coolant is circulated until the
conductivity decreases below the alarm threshold again.

3.2 Sealings
To ensure leakproof sealing, seal threaded connections that do not have
O-rings or gaskets as follows:
• For stainless steel to stainless steel connections, use a sealant such
as Loctite 755 and Loctite 401 activator spray.
• For stainless steel to plastic connections, use thread tape.
• For plastic to plastic connections, use thread tape.

If a pump is running without coolant in it, the pump seals are damaged
immediately.
As long as the cooling system is empty:
• Do not switch on the auxiliary power supply.
• Do not switch on the pump(s).
5.1 Overview
Commissioning of the cooling unit includes the following items:
1 Preparing the coolant for the internal cooling circuit
2 Filling the internal cooling circuit
3 Venting the internal cooling circuit
4 Final settings and adjustments
5.2.1 Requirements
NOTICE
Inhibitors or other chemicals in the coolant significantly reduce the lifetime
of the ion exchange resin and can damage the internal coolant circuit.
Use deionized or distilled coolant. If deionized or distilled coolant is not
available, use water that meets the water specification.

Glycol requirements
NOTICE
Glycol as used in cars is not suitable as antifreeze. Due to its high conduc-
tivity, it prevents the drive from starting.
Use one of the following types of glycol:
■ Monoethylene glycol (CAS: 107-21-1)
■ Propylene glycol (CAS: 57-55-6)
Make sure that the glycol does not contain additives.
Specific heat capacity at 20°C (68 °F) 2.3 kJ/kgK 2.5 kJ/kgK

CAUTION
Hazardous chemical!
Glycol used as antifreeze is a health hazard.
• To prevent direct contact, inhalation or ingestion, wear rubber gloves,
goggles and respiratory protection.
• Observe the safety data sheet of the supplier.
• Before mixing the glycol and the coolant, make sure that any person
involved in the process has read and fully understood all safety and
mixing instructions.
Mixing ratios Depending on the required freezing point and the glycol used, the coolant-
glycol mixture needs to have a specific concentration. For details, see Tab.
5-3 and Tab. 5-4.

How to mix it 1 If the glycol has been ordered from ABB, verify
that the glycol container contains the amount of
glycol ordered and specified on the container
label.
The last two digits of the item number stand for
the amount of glycol in liters (eg,
3BHL001483P0021 contains 21 liters of
glycol).
2 Add 75% of the coolant required to reach the
correct concentration into the glycol container.
3 Thoroughly mix the glycol and the coolant.
NOTICE
If you do not mix the glycol and the coolant, it has a negative effect on the
thermal and hydraulic behavior of the coolant.
