The Lexium 17S family of servo amplifiers is to be used on earthed three-phase
industrial mains supply networks (TN-system, TT-system with earthed neutral point,
not more than 5000 rms symmetrical amperes).
industrial mains supply networks (TN-system, TT-system with earthed neutral point,

The Lexium drives are incompatible with the IT system because interference
suppression filters are internal and connected to earth. If the user wants to connect
Lexium drives to an IT system, he may:

Lexium drives to an IT system, he may:
l
use an insulation star transformer in order to re-create a local TT or TN system.
This way allows the rest of the wiring to stay an IT system (only warning in case
of the first fault.)

l
use a special Residual Current Circuit Breaker (RCCB) that is able to work with
dc and high peak currents. This device detects unbalance of phases with
regard to earth.
Warning: When the first fault occurs, the RCCB has to switch off quickly power
of the drives. Set of the residual current value must be carefully done and must
be started with the lowest available value (for example: 30mA.)

If the servo amplifiers are used in residential areas, or in business or commercial
premises, then additional filter measures must be implemented by the user.

The Lexium 17S family of servo amplifiers is only intended to drive specific
brushless synchronous servomotors from the Lexium BPH series, with closed-loop
control of torque, speed and/or position. The dielectric withstand voltage of the
motors must be at least as hight as the DC-link voltage of the servo amplifier.
