WARNING! The AQUAVAR adjustable speed AC drive should ONLY be installed
by a qualified electrician.
WARNING! Even when the motor is stopped, dangerous voltage is present at
the Power Circuit terminals U1, V1, W1 and U2, V2, W2 and, depending on the
frame size, UDC+ and UDC-, or BRK+ and BRK-.
WARNING! Dangerous voltage is present when input power is connected. After
disconnecting the supply, wait at least 5 minutes (to let the intermediate circuit
capacitors discharge) before removing the cover.
WARNING! Even when power is removed from the input terminals of the
AQUAVAR, there may be dangerous voltage (from external sources) on the
terminals of the relay outputs R01R03.
WARNING! When the control terminals of two or more drive units are con-
nected in parallel, the auxiliary voltage for these control connections must be
taken from a single source which can either be one of the units or an external
supply.
WARNING! The AQUAVAR CPC wall mount version is not a field repairable unit.
Never attempt to repair a malfunctioning unit; contact the factory or your local
Authorized Service Center for replacement.
WARNING! The AQUAVAR will start up automatically after an input voltage
interruption if the external run command is on.
WARNING! The heat sink may reach a high temperature, in excess of 200 F.
Severe burns are possible.
WARNING! If the drive will be used in a floating network, remove screws at
EM1 and EM3 (Frame size R1R4), or F1 and F2 (Frame size R5 or R6). See
diagrams on pages 22 and 23 respectively.
NOTE! For more technical information, contact the factory or your local
AQUAVAR representative.
WARNING! Always consult your local, state, municipal or NEC codes for proper
wiring, electrical installation of inverter drives and AC motors.

Introduction
Introduction
Input Power and Line Transformer Requirements
The Aquavar CPC requires that the input line voltage and transformer power
that meet certain phase and balance requirements. If you or your installing
electrical contractor is in doubt of the requirements, the following provide
guidelines for the Aquavar CPC. When in doubt contact the local power
utility or the factory.
Drive input isolation transformers are not generally required for the Aquavar
CPC. The Aquavar CPC utilizes as standard 3% line impedance, therefore unless
additional filtering is needed, an input line reactor is not required.
NOTE: 60 THROUGH 550 HP UNITS PROVIDE AN ACTUAL 3% IMPEDANCE LINE
REACTOR BUILT INTO THE DRIVE CABINET.
The internal power circuit of the drive is floating with respect to earth ground
except for transient protection (MOVs and EMI capacitors) therefore earth
ground potential reference is established only by the users power line
grounding configuration. The drive can operate with many different power
grounding schemes. The drive requires only that the steady state RMS voltage
from any input line to ground be always less than 110% of the nominal power
line to line voltage. The use of optional RFI/EMC filters may require that the
voltage from any input line to ground be less than 110% of the nominal power
line to neutral voltage.
Drive input isolation or dry type transformers may be required for the
following:
1. Step up or down: An input transformer may be required to step the local
input power line voltage up or down to the level of the drive input rating.
2. Ground Isolation: An input isolation transformer with a direct or a high
impedance wye neutral secondary ground connection may be required to
establish a local power source with a ground relationship different from
the utility power source.
A. If ground isolation is required to prevent a ground fault in one section
from shutting down equipment in another section.
B. To bring local line voltages within the line to ground limits (110%
balance) stated in the opening paragraph.
C. Some ground fault protection schemes and peripheral components
require a grounded neutral power source.
G L Pumps 7
Introduction
Introduction
D. A symmetrical wye neutral grounded power source along with proper
ground wiring techniques according to NEC (good ac grounding from
motor to drive and from drive to earth ground) provides the best means
to control the ground currents that the drive switching frequency and
dv/dt rate insert into the motor frame and shaft.
3. Phase shifting delta-wye or zig-zag isolation transformers are used to
feed 12 or 18 pulse drive inputs to provide harmonic mitigation.
If an isolation transformer is used for 6 pulse input, the best choice is ONE
three phase, six winding transformer. A delta primary is best for third
harmonic cancellation. A wye secondary avoids circulating current problems
and provides the very desirable option of grounding the secondary neutral for
minimum voltage stress and ripple to ground. The transformer should have a
KVA rating at least 1.1 times the maximum connected HP. A K Factor of 6 is
sufficient if transformer impedance is greater than 2%. A K Factor of 5 is
sufficient if transformer impedance is greater than 3%. The transformer
manufacturer may provide derating for non K Factor rated transformers to
operate at the drive produced K Factor levels.
Other transformer configurations are acceptable. Three single phase
transformers can be used if they are identical for phase to phase symmetry
and balance. A wye connected primary neutral should never be grounded.
Great care should be taken with delta primary delta secondary configurations.
Any lack of phase to phase symmetry could result in circulating currents and
unacceptable transformer heating.

Introduction
Introduction
Sometimes drive input isolation transformers are specified to deal
with one or more of the following issues:
1. Short Circuit Protection: Input transformers are sometimes used to
provide impedance to reduce the available short circuit current to levels
that the input clearing devices, such as fuses or circuit breakers, are rated
to handle. Line reactors can perform this impedance function much
more cost effectively.
2. Transient Protection: Input transformers are sometimes used to provide
transient surge impedance. All the Aquavar CPC drives have capacitors and
MOVs (Metal Oxide Varistor transient protectors) providing 120 to 360
joules, line to line and line to ground transient protection. Isolation
transformers are not required for this protection within those energy
levels. Additional distribution transformer primary transient surge arrestors
may be required if the potential transient energy reflected to the drive
exceed those levels. MOVs are rated to handle high levels of one shot
transient energy. MOVs are not meant to handle continuously recurring
transients. A problem of continuously recurring transients should be
corrected before connecting a drive.
3. Harmonic Mitigation: Input transformers are sometimes used to provide
impedance to reduce the harmonic currents generated in the drive. Line
reactors can perform this function much more cost effectively.
4. Power Factor Capacitor Isolation: Input transformers are sometimes used
to provide impedance to isolate drives from line connected power factor
correction capacitors. PWM drive inputs do not require power factor
correction capacitors as drive power factors are generally greater than 92%
and cannot be significantly improved with power factor correction
capacitors which only correct for fundamental. However drives should be
isolated from power factor correction capacitors by about 3 to 6%
additional impedance with respect to the drives. Line reactors can perform
this function much more cost effectively than isolation transformers. ABB
drives have either an internal 3% line reactor or an equivalent 3 to 5% bus
reactor.
5. RFI/EMI Mitigation: Neither input isolation transformers nor line or bus
reactors provide good high frequency filtering although an isolation
transformer with a static shield will provide some RFI mitigation. If RFI/EMI
mitigation is required, an RFI/EMI filter mounted inside the drive should be
used together with all the proper wiring and grounding techniques. Some
RFI/EMI filters may operate only on a power source with a grounded
neutral. Establishing a local neutral ground may require the use of an input
isolation transformer.

Suitable Environment and Enclosure
Confirm that the site meets the environmental requirements. To prevent
damage prior to installation, store and transport the drive according to the
environmental requirements specified for storage and transportation. See
Ambient Conditions on page 157.
Confirm that the enclosure is appropriate, based on the site contamination
level:
IP 21 / UL type 1 enclosure, indoor use only. The site must be free of
airborne dust, corrosive gases or liquids, and conductive contaminants such
as condensation, carbon dust and metallic particles.
IP 54 / UL type 12 enclosure, indoor use only. This enclosure provides
protection from airborne dust and light sprays or splashing water from all
directions.
UL Type 3R- Enclosures are intended for outdoor use to provide a degree of
protection from falling rain. Undamaged by the formation of ice on the
enclosure. May be cooled by forced air and louvers for vents.
IP 56 / UL type 4 enclosure. Constructed for outdoor use or hose down
applications. Provides a degree of protection against falling dirt, rain, sleet,
snow, windblown dust and splashing water. Not suitable for direct sun. A
sun shield or canopy may be required.
Suitable Mounting Location
Confirm that the mounting location meets the following constraints:
The drive must be mounted vertically on a smooth, solid surface, and in a
suitable environment as defined above.
The minimum space requirements for the drive are the outside dimensions
(see Outside Dimensions on page 148 and 149), plus air flow space
around the unit (see Cooling on page 148).
The distance between the motor and the drive is limited by the maximum
motor cable length. See Motor Connection on page 147.
The mounting site must support the drives modest weight and noise
output. See Dimensions and Weights on page 152.
Wiring and EMC Considerations
Determine electromagnetic compliance (EMC) requirements per local codes.
In general, always follow the NEC in the absence of a local code.
Follow local codes for cable size, conduit, grounding and motors.
Keep these four classes of wiring separated: input power wiring, motor
wiring, control/communications wiring. Always use separate conduit for
motor/control wires.
Introduction
Installation
G L Pumps 14
Introduction
Introduction
Refer to the specifications/recommendations in:
Cable Sizing/Rating on page 142,
Cable Terminals on page 146,
Input Power (Mains) Connection on page 147 and
Motor Connection on page 147.
Multiple motor wire should always be run in separate conduit. Shielded
and grounded!
Control Cables
General Recommendations
Use shielded cables, temperature rated at 60 C (140 F) or above:
Control cables must be multi-core cables with a braided copper wire
screen.
Double Shielded Single Shielded
Example: JAMAK by Draka NK Cables Example: NOMAK by Draka NK Cables
The screen must be twisted together into a bundle not longer than five
times its width and connected to terminal X1-1 (for digital and analog I/O
cables) or to either X1-28 or X1-32 (for RS485 cables).
Route control cables to minimize radiation to the cable:
Route as far away as possible from the input power and motor cables (at
least 20 cm (8 in)).
Where control cables must cross power cables make sure they are at an
angle as near 90 as possible.
Stay at least 20 cm (8 in) from the sides of the drive.
Use care in mixing signal types on the same cable:
Do not mix analog and digital input signals on the same cable.
Run relay-controlled signals as twisted pairs (especially if voltage > 48 V).
Relay-controlled signals using less than 48 V can be run in the same cables
as digital input signals.
NOTE! Never mix 24 VDC and VAC signals in the same cable.
G L Pumps 15
Introduction
Introduction
Analog Cables
Recommendations for analog signal runs:
Use double shielded, twisted pair cable
Use one individually shielded pair for each signal.
Do not use a common return for different analog signals.
Digital Cables
Recommendations for digital signal runs:
A double shielded cable is the best alternative, but single shielded twisted
multi-pair cable is also usable.
Control Panel Cable
If the control panel is connected to the drive with a cable, use only Category
5 Patch ethernet cable.
G L Pumps 16
Supply Connection
Disconnecting Device (Mains)
Install a hand-operated input disconnecting device between the AC power
source (MCC) and the drive. The disconnecting device must be of a type that
can be locked to the open position for installation and maintenance work.
Follow all local NEC codes.
Fuses
See Technical Data: Fuse Sizing/Rating on pages 141-142.
Thermal Overload and Short-circuit Protection
The drive protects itself and the input and motor cables against thermal
overload when the cables are dimensioned according to the nominal current
of the drive. No additional thermal protection devices are needed.
WARNING! If the drive is connected to multiple motors, a separate thermal
overload switch or a circuit breaker must be used for protecting each cable
and motor. These devices may require a separate fuse to cut off the
short-circuit current.
The drive protects the motor cable and the motor in a short-circuit situation
when the motor cable is dimensioned according to the nominal current of
the drive.
Mains Cable (AC line cable) Short-circuit Protection
Always protect the input cable with fuses. Standard gG (US: T or L) very fast
acting, fuses will protect the input cable in short-circuit situations and prevent
damage to adjoining equipment in case of a short-circuit inside the drive.
Size the fuses according to local safety regulations, appropriate input voltage
and the rated current of the drive. For fuse ratings, see Technical Data, pages
141-142.
WARNING! Circuit breakers are not capable of providing sufficient
protection because they are inherently slower than fuses. Always use fuses
with circuit breakers, if you are not sure of the circuit braking capacity and
mains short circuit power.
Ground Fault Protection
The drive is equipped with an internal ground fault protective function to
protect the unit against ground faults in the motor and the motor cable. This
is not a personal safety or a fire protection feature. The ground fault protec-
tive function can be disabled with a parameter contact factory for more
information.
Installation (Frames R1-R6)
Installation (Frames R1-R6)
G L Pumps 17 Installation (Frames R1-R6)
The EMC filter of the drive includes capacitors connected between the main
circuit and the frame. These capacitors and long motor cables increase the
ground leakage current and may cause fault current circuit breakers to
function.
Emergency Off Devices
For safety reasons, install the emergency off devices at each operator control
station and at other operating stations where emergency off may be needed.
Pressing the stop key on the control panel of the drive does not generate
an emergency off of the motor or separate the drive from dangerous potential.
Selecting the Power Cables
General Rules
Dimension the mains (input power) and motor cables according to local
regulations:
the cable must be able to carry the drive load current. See Technical Data
for the rated currents.
The cable must be rated for at least 70 C (158 F) maximum permissible
temperature of conductor in continuous use. For US, follow local codes for
cable size, or refer to NEC table 310.16.
The inductance and impedance of the PE conductor/cable (grounding wire)
must be rated according to permissible touch voltage appearing under fault
conditions (so that the fault point voltage will not rise excessively when an
ground fault occurs).
600 VAC cable is accepted for up to 500 VAC concerning the entire
AQUAVAR CPC range.
For frame sizes R7 and R8, symmetrical shielded motor cable must be used
(figure below). A four-conductor system used up to 30 kW motors cannot be
used.
Compared to a four conductor system, the use of symmetrical shielded cable
reduces electromagnetic emission of the whole drive system as well as motor
bearing currents and wear of bearings.
The motor cable and its PE pigtail (twisted screen) should be kept as short as

Motor Cable Shield
To effectively suppress radiated and conducted radio-frequency emissions,
the shield conductivity must be at least 1/10 of the phase conductivity. The
requirements are easily met with a copper or aluminum shield. The minimum
requirement of the motor cable shield of the drive is shown below. It consists
of a concentric layer of copper wires with an open helix of copper tape. The
better and tighter the shield, the lower the emission level and the bearing
currents.
Additional US Requirements
Type MC continuous corrugated aluminum armor cable with symmetrical
grounds or shielded power cable must be used for the motor cables if
metallic conduit is not used. For the North American market, 600 VAC
cable is accepted for up to 500 VAC. For drives rated over 100 amperes,
the power cables must be rated for 70C (158F).
Conduit
Where conduits must be coupled together, bridge the joint with a ground
conductor bonded to the conduit on each side of the joint. Bond the con-
duits also to the drive enclosure. Use separate conduits for input power,
motor, brake resistors, and control wiring. Do not run motor wiring from
more than one drive in the same conduit.
Armored cable / shielded power cable
The motor cables can be run in the same cable tray as other 460 V power
wiring. Control and signal cables must not be run in the same tray as power
cables. Six conductor (3 phases and 3 ground) type MC continuous corru-
gated aluminum armor cable with symmetrical grounds is available from the
following suppliers (tradenames in parenthesis):
Anixter Wire & Cable (Philsheath)
BICC General Corp (Philsheath)
Rockbestos Co. (Gardex)
Oaknite (CLX).
Shielded power cables are available from Belden, LAPPKABEL (OLEFLEX) and
Pirelli.

WARNING! Ensure the motor is compatible for use with the AQUAVAR. The
AQUAVAR must be installed by a competent person in accordance with the
considerations defined in Preparing for Installation on page 11. If in doubt,
contact your local AQUAVAR sales or service office. Always consult the NEC
for information.
Refer to the following table to complete the power connections. If appro-
priate, also perform the instructions for the braking and floating networks.

* NOTE: The AQUAVAR (208240V series) can be used with a single phase
supply, if output current is derated by 50%. For single phase supply
voltage, connect power at U1 and W1. Refer to page 24.
Floating Networks
For floating networks (also known as IT, ungrounded or high impedance
networks):
Disconnect the internal RFI filter by removing both the EM1 and EM3
screws (frame sizes R1R4, see page 22), or F1 and F2 screws (frame sizes
R5R6, see page 23).
Where EMC requirements exist, check for excessive emission propagated to
neighboring low voltage networks. In some cases, the natural suppression
in transformers and cables is sufficient. If in doubt, use a supply trans-
former with static screening between the primary and secondary windings.
Do NOT install an external filter. Using an RFI filter grounds the input power
through the filter capacitors, which could be dangerous and could damage
the unit.

Safety
WARNING! Read "Safety" on the first pages of this manual before perform-
ing any maintenance on the equipment. Ignoring the safety instructions can
cause injury or death. Note: There are parts carrying dangerous voltages
near the OMIO board when the drive is powered.
Separating the Drive and Extension Modules
The drive module is mounted on a trolley that straddles a pedestal. The
following procedure removes mechanical connections so that the drive mod-
ule and trolley can roll forward for service access.
1. Disconnect all power sources from the
drive/extension modules and wait at least
5 minutes for internal capacitors to fully
discharge.
2. Remove all front covers from the drive
module.
3. Disconnect the control panel cable.
4. Remove the upper side plate from the drive
module if convenient.
5. Remove screws (if any) that fasten the drive
module to the wall.
6. Inside the pedestal, toward the rear are screws
that attach the drive bus bars to the pedestal
bus bars. The connections are staggered for
easy access using a wrench with an extension.
Remove these screws (6).

MultiPump- Slave Pump Control
Overview
The Aquavar CPC has the ability to use up to three dry relay contacts for
constant speed SLAVE or lag pump control. This is useful if the operator
requires a wide range of flow rates in certain situations (i.e. emergency flow),
and does not require all variable speed controlled pumps. When the required
demand increases beyond capacity of the variable speed controlled lead pump,
then the FULL SPEED lag pump will turn on. Each relay will be wired to your
constant speed pump starter, sized for the appropriate horsepower and voltage.
The relay outputs located on the terminal control board X1 (SEE DIAGRAM
FROM PREVIOUS PAGE) will actuate when programmed according to the
operators desired output. The lag pumps will turn on when the Aquavar
controlled pump cannot keep up to the required demand. The lag pumps will be
operated by across the line starters, and signaled to start via the Aquavar relays
located on terminals 19 through 27 of the X1 terminal block. The lag pumps are
referred to as SLAVE pumps, because they operate with commands from the
Aquavar controlled LEAD pump. The Aquavar controller will actuate the relays,
and provide a time delay for ON/ OFF on each relay.
The figure shows Pump 1 when it cannot maintain the system pressure (value
decrease). Next, Pump 1 + lag pump 2 will operate as a lead and lag system. If
Pump 1 + 2 cannot maintain system flow, then lag # 2 pump will turn on, then
you will have all three pumps ( 1 + 2 + 3 ) operating in the system. You can
operate up to 3 slave pumps, with 1 Aquavar controlled pump.
NOTE: Each lag pump is controlled by the speed of the lead Aquavar pump,
system pressure drop (value decrease), and a delay time in seconds. Do not set
the pressure drop too close to operating system pressure, or pump cycling will
occur!

MultiPump- Slave Pump Control
Lead vs. Lag
The Aquavar controlled pump will always be considered the LEAD pump, and
start first in the system sequence. The constant speed pumps will always be the
SLAVE or LAG pumps in the system. When the Aquavar controlled pump,
starts to run out or cannot meet the system demand, then the first relay
output will actuate based on a programmed pressure and time delay. The
Aquavar CPC has up to three contacts that can be used for SLAVE operation.
Wiring/ Connection
The relays used for the SLAVE pump control are dry relay contacts, rated for a
MAXIMUM 250 VAC or 30VDC, 2 Amps free from inductivity. Minimum is 500
mW (12V, 10mA). Refer to diagram below, or in APPENDIX section.
Each relay will be wired to a voltage starter DO NOT EXCEED 250 VOLTS AC
through each relay. Each relay is designed for control power only. It is up to the
operator to provide necessary starters, overloads or fuses for each SLAVE pump
motor control. Always follow your local codes or National codes and have a
certified electrician perform the necessary wiring.
NOTE: Normally Closed (NC) = R01C, R02C, R03C
Common Connection (CC) = R01A, R02A, R03A
Normally Open (NO) = R01B, R02B, R03B
SLAVE Pump Sizing/ Piping
It is recommended that each slave pump be sized the same and with the
same performance curve. All necessary check valves, ball valves, or gate
valves should be installed in the system to limit or choke each SLAVE
pump discharge in order to maintain proper head conditions and to
prevent pressure oscillations or system hunting. Follow all recommended
Hydraulic Institute standards for piping size and pipe layout.

MultiPump- Slave Pump Control
Programming Steps
Default settings for each relay are set for NOT USED. Therefore, the operator will
have to access the programming, and go to GROUP 18 RELAY OUTPUTS and
set each relay to START SLAVE. (SEE BELOW FOR DETAILED PROGRAMMING
STEPS.) Each relay is labeled (R01, R02, R03) and can be programmed to
respond based on a drop in system pressure and delay time in seconds.
Therefore, you can control the relay when the
system pressure starts to drop, and you allow a
certain time delay in seconds to respond. When
the demand stops, each LAG pump will stop after
a time delay, and operation will return solely to the
Aquavar controlled pump.

23. Optional Step: To lock out access
to the control panel (keypad), refer
to page 109. This will prevent
unauthorized users from changing programming.
NOTE: If an error or fault occurs, refer to the faults/alarms section
of this manual, page 122. When troubleshooting an Aquavar system,
always break down into the following components:
1. Aquavar programming check default settings recommended for
single pump, multi-pump, slave pump etc.
2. Electrical supply/ motor/ wiring/grounding check your supply
voltage, motor wiring, transducer wiring, and grounding.
3. Mechanical/Pump/ Rotation check your pump rotation, rubbing or
other mechanical problems. Pump run out.
4. Hydraulic System/ Piping check to ensure proper suction and
discharge piping layout, proper NPSHa, air entrainment, vortex, friction
loss, system curve compensation etc.
5. Environment protect from high temperatures, direct sun, freezing
temperatures, high altitude, dust, vibration, lack of air flow.

Analog Outputs
The Aquavar CPC has two 4-20 mA analog outputs as standard. These
outputs may be configured by the user to output from a selection of nine
actual pump signals. Parameter group 19 is used to configure these outputs.
Analog Outputs are found on X1 Terminal Block, # 2 and # 5 pins. Reference
the terminal block diagram on pages 22-30 for detailed wiring connections.

Auto Restart
The Aquavar drive can be configured to start automatically following a power
failure. Changing the value to ON will enable auto-restart. Selecting OFF disables
the auto-restart.
AUTO RESTART is also used with ERROR RESET for automatic restarts following a
shutdown due to a pump fault. AUTO RESTART will also restart the pump once a
secondary protection fault is reset.
Parameter Name Value/Range Note
12.02 AUTO OFF When this is set to ON , the Aquavar
RESTART ON (DEFAULT) will automatically re-start after a power
failure or fault reset.
25.04 AR OVER- ENABLE Allows the drive to restart after a motor
CURRENT overcurrent error.
25.05 AR OVER- ENABLE Allows the drive to restart after an
VOLTAGE INPUT OVERVOLTAGE error.
25.06 AR UNDER- ENABLE Allows the drive to restart after an
VOLTAGE INPUT UNDERVOLTAGE error.
25.07 AR AI < ENABLE Allows the drive to restart after a
MIN transducer or analog signal loss.
Energy Savings Information [Group 26]
Aquavar can calculate the energy savings as compared to a constant speed
pump application. To enable this function to perform properly, local energy costs
and comparative application information must be entered.
Enter the local energy cost in $ (local currency) per kWh into parameter 26.01($/
KWhr) and then enter the nominal power rating of a comparable fixed speed
unit into parameter 26.02 (baseline power). To find this, look at the fixed speed
pump performance curve and enter the power for the rated operating point or
maximum Brake Horsepower for the specific pump/ impeller combination.
Example - If your power cost is $0.06 per kWh, enter a value of .06 into parameter 26.01.
Parameter Name Value/Range Note(s)
26.01 $/kWh 0-1.00 Default is zero.
26.02 BASELINE 0-1000 HP Default is zero.

One of the benefits of using Aquavar is its ability to automatically shut off
the pump when not required. Parameter 26.04 SAVINGS OPTION #2 allows
the savings of using Aquavar to be tracked during automatic shutdown. The
OPTION # 2 will calculate according to a fixed speed unit that is designed to
run continuously 24 hrs a day, 7 days a week.
NOTE: This is an estimated comparative data used for ideal situations, G&L
Pumps cannot guarantee savings will be exactly as stated. Many system
variables may increase or decrease estimated savings.
Fieldbus Control
The Aquavar CPC may be integrated into BMS (Building Management
Systems) or existing Distributive Control Systems (DCS) via optional Fieldbus
control modules. The use of Fieldbus control modules allows selected
Aquavar parameters and operating signals to be accessed and modified.
Fieldbus control modules are available in numerous communication
protocols, including: DeviceNet, Modbus, Profibus.
