Application information

I Benefits
Used in conjunction with the new 3NE1 ...2 fuse range, the 3KL switch disconnectors with fuses have been awarded UL approval.

I Application
Characteristics SITOR fuse links protect converter equipment against short-circuits. The power semiconductors used in these devices (diodes, thyristors, GTOs and others) require high-speed elements for protection due to their low thermal capacity. SITOR fuse links (super quick fuse links for semiconductor protection) are ideal for these types of application. The following types of short-circuit faults can occur: Internal short-circuit: a faulty semiconductor device causes a short circuit within the power converter. External short-circuit: a fault in the load causes a short circuit on the output side of the power converter. Shoot-throughs: In the event of a failure of the chassis converter control system during inverter operation (commutation failure), the converter connection forms a short-circuit type connection between the DC and AC power supply system. Fuse links can be arranged in a number of ways within the converter connection. A distinction is made between phase fuses in threephase current incoming feeders and, if applicable, DC fuses and arm fuses in the arms of the converter connections (see adjacent graphs). In the case of center tap connections, fuse links can only be arranged as phase fuses in three-phase current incoming feeders. When using SITOR fuse links of operational class aR, the overload protection of converter equipment, up to approx. 3.5 times the rated current of the fuse link, is taken from conventional protective devices (for example, thermal-delayed overload relays) or, in the case of controlled power converters, from the current limiter (exception: full range fuses). As semiconductor protection, SITOR fuse links of the3NE1 ...-0 series with gS operational class are also suitable for the overload and short-circuit protection of cables, lines and busbars. All other dual-function fuses of the SITOR series have a gR characteristic. Overload protection is ensured as long as the rated current of the SITOR fuse links of the 3NE1 ...-0 series is selected as In Iz (DIN VDE 0100 Part 430). The rules of DIN VDE 0100 Part 430 must be applied when rating short-circuit protection for cables, lines and busbars. Configuration options

LV HRC SITOR Fuse Links
Application information
Use in switch disconnectors When using SITOR semiconductor fuses in 3KL and 3KM switch disconnectors with fuses and 3NP fuse switch disconnectors, the rated current of the fuse must sometimes be reduced due to the higher power dissipation compared to LV HRC fuses for line protection. Sometimes when using SITOR semiconductor fuses in switch disconnectors, the currents designated can be higher than the rated currents of the switches. These higher currents only apply when using SITOR switch disconnectors with semiconductor fuses and cannot be used when using switch disconnectors with standard LV HRC fuses. You will find further details in the following selection table. When using SITOR semiconductor fuses of the 3NC24, 3NC84, 3NE33 and 3NE43 series, the standard switching capacity of the fuse must not be used as the blades of these fuses (in contrast to LV HRC fuses) are slit. Occasional switching of currents up to the rated current of the fuses is permissible. Due to the mechanical strain on the comparatively long fuse blade, SITOR semiconductor fuses of the 3NE41 series may only be occasionally switched, and only without load. If only switching without load is permissible, this must be clearly stated on the switch itself. The use of SITOR semiconductor fuses > 63 A for overload protection is not permitted even if gR fuses are used (exception: 3NE1). The operational voltage is limited by the rated voltage of the switch disconnector or the fuse. If switching without load, the limit value is the rated insulation voltage of the switch disconnector. The 3NE1 "double protection fuses" can be used as full range fuses (gS) for semiconductor and line protection. Due to the dimensions of the SITOR semiconductor fuses, only the fuses shown in the following selection and ordering data can be used with 3KL and 3KM switch disconnectors with fuses and 3NP fuse switch disconnectors.

I More information
Environment-friendly recycling In 1995, seven German manufacturers of LV HRC/HV HRC fuse links founded a non-profit association.

NH

LV HRC/HV HRC Recycling

HH

The objective is to provide a useful recycling option for used fuse links and determine an acceptable disposal concept that meets all the requirements of modern environment protection. Used fuse links are sorted according to product type and are accepted back without packaging for recycling, melted down and the recovered materials are fed back into the material cycle. According to the regulations, statutes and articles of the association, any surplus from the recycling process is donated to a university in order to encourage research in the area of fuse link technology. For further information, please visit our Web site at: http://www.nh-hh-recycling.de Disclaimer The products described here were developed as part of an overall plant or machine to perform safety-related functions. A complete failsafe system usually contains sensors, evaluation units, signaling devices and concepts for failsafe disconnection. It is the responsibility of the manufacturer of a plant or machine to ensure the correct overall function. Siemens AG, its branches and affiliated companies (hereafter "Siemens"), is not in a position to guarantee the function of an overall plant or machine that was not designed by Siemens. Siemens can accept no liability for recommendations, either explicit or implicit, contained in the following description. Furthermore, no warranty or liability claims above and beyond those provided for in the Siemens General Terms and Conditions can be derived from the description. Caution Fuses must always be fitted by a qualified technician.

Notes on Dimensioning
Technical explanations

I Overview
The fuse links are selected according to rated voltage, rated current, breaking I2t value I2tA and varying load factor, taking into consideration other specified conditions. Unless stated otherwise, all of the following data refer to AC operation from 45 Hz to 62 Hz. Rated voltage Un The rated voltage of a SITOR fuse link is the voltage specified as the r.m.s. value of the AC voltage on the fuse link and in the order and configuration data and the characteristics. Always ensure that the rated voltage of the fuse link you select is such that the fuse link will reliably quench the voltage driving the short-circuit current. The driving voltage must not exceed the value Un + 10 %. Please note that the supply voltage Uv0 of a power converter can also be increased by 10 %. If, in the shorted circuit, two arms of a converter connection are connected in series, and if the short-circuit current is sufficiently high, it can be assumed that voltage sharing is uniform. It is essential to observe the instructions in "Series connection of fuse links" on page 2/84. Rectifier operation With converter equipment that can only be used for rectifier operation, the supply voltage Uv0 is the driving voltage. Inverter operation With converter equipment that can also be used for inverter operation, shoot-throughs may occur as faults. In this case, the driving voltage UWK in the shorted circuit is the sum of the infeed direct voltage (e.g. the e.m.f. of the DC generator) and the AC-line supply voltage. When rating a fuse link, this sum can be replaced by an AC voltage whose r.m.s. value is 1.8 times that of the AC-line supply voltage (UWK = 1.8 Uv0). The fuse links must be rated so that they reliably quench the voltage UWK. Rated current In, load rating The rated current of a SITOR fuse link is the current specified as r.m.s. value of the alternating current for the frequency range 45 Hz to 62 Hz in the Selection and ordering data and characteristic curves, as well as on the fuse link itself. When operating fuse links with rated current, the following are considered normal operating conditions: Natural air cooling with an ambient temperature of +45 C Conductor cross-sections equal test cross-sections (see Test cross-sections table), for operation in LV HRC fuse bases and switch-disconnectors, please refer to the Selection and ordering data Conduction angle of a half-period 120 el Continuous load maximum with rated current.

With this load current wave form, the fuse link can still carry the full rated current. In the case of smaller conduction angles, the current must be reduced in accordance with the following graph.

Varying load factor WL The varying load factor WL is a reduction factor by which the nonaging current carrying capacity of the fuse links can be determined for any load cycles. Due to their design, the SITOR fuse links have a range of different varying load factors. In the characteristic curves of the fuse links, the respective varying load factor WL for >10000 load changes (1 hour "ON", 1 hour "OFF") is specified for the expected operating time of the fuse links. In the event of a lower number of load changes during the expected operating time, it may be possible to use a fuse link with a smaller varying load factor WL as shown in the following graph. In the case of uniform loads (no load cycles and no shutdowns), the varying load factor can be taken as WL = 1. For load cycles and shutdowns that last longer than 5 min. and are more frequent than once a week, you need to select the varying load factor WL specified in the characteristic curves of the individual fuse links.

Correction factor kA for breaking I 2t value Example: Series 3NE8 0..

The integral of the current squared I dtover the entire switching period (ts+tL), known as the breaking I 2t value, determines the heat to be fed to the semiconductor device that is to be protected during the breaking procedure. In order to ensure sufficient protection, the breaking I 2t value of the fuse link must be smaller than the I 2t value of the semiconductor device. As the temperature increases, i.e. preloading increases, the breaking I 2t value of the fuse link decreases almost in the same way as the I 2t value of a semiconductor device, so that it is enough to compare the I 2t values in a non-loaded (cold) state. The breaking I 2t value (I 2tA) is the sum of the melting I 2t value (I 2ts) and the quenching I 2t value (I 2tL).

Current path when switching fuse links

Taking into account the recovery voltage Uw The recovery voltage Uw is derived from the voltage driving the short-circuit current. For most faults, the driving voltage is equal to the supply voltage Uv0, however, for shoot-throughs it is 1.8 times the value for the supply voltage Uv0 (see rated voltage, page 2/78). If the shorted circuit contains two arms of a converter connection and thus two fuse links in series, and if the short-circuit current is sufficiently high (see series connection, page 2/84) it can be assumed that there is a uniform voltage sharing, i.e. Uw = 0.5 x Uv0 or, in the case of shoot-throughs Uw = 0.9 x Uv0. Influence of the power factor p.f. The specifications in the characteristic curves for the breaking I 2t values (I 2tA) refer to power factor = 0.35 (exception: for 3NC5 8.., 3NE6 4.., 3NE9 4.. SITOR fuse links the following applies: p.f. = 0.2). The dependence of the breaking I 2t values on the power factor at 1.0 x Un and at 0.5 x Un is shown in the following graph.

Melting I t value I ts The melting value I 2t can be calculated for the value pairs of the time/current characteristic curve of the fuse link for any periods. As the melting time decreases, the melting value I 2t tends towards a lower limit value at which almost no heat is dissipated from the bottleneck of the fuse element to the environment during the melting process. The melting I 2t values specified in the Selection and ordering data and in the characteristic curves correspond to the melting time tvs = 1 ms. Melting I 2t value I 2tL While the melting I 2t value is a characteristic of the fuse link, the quenching I 2t value depends on circuit data, such as the recovery voltage Uw the power factor p.f. of the shorted circuit the prospective current Ip (current at the installation site of the fuse link if this is bridged) The maximum quenching I 2t value is reached at a current of 10 x In to 30 x In. Breaking I 2t value I 2tA, correction factor kA The breaking I 2t values of the fuse link are specified in the characteristic curves for the rated voltage Un. In order to determine the breaking I 2t value for recovery voltage Uw the correction factor kA must be taken into account. I 2tA (at Uw) = I 2tA (at Un) x kA The characteristics "correction factor kA" (see the following graph) is specified in the characteristic curves for the individual fuse series. The breaking I 2t values determined in this way apply to prospective currents Ip 10 x In and p.f. = 0.35.

If the time/current characteristic curve in the long-time range (tvs > 30 s) is dashed (fuse links of aR operational class), this specifies the limit of the permissible overload in a cold state. If the dashed part of the characteristic curve is exceeded, there is a risk of damage to the ceramic body of the fuse link. The fuse links can only be used for short-circuit protection. In this case, an additional protective device (overload relay, circuit-breaker) is required to protect against overload. In the case of controlled converter equipment, the current limiter is sufficient. If the time/current characteristic curve is solid over the entire setting range (fuse links of operational class gR or gS), then the fuse link can operate in this range. This means it can be used both for overload and short-circuit protection. Actual melting time The virtual melting time tvs is specified in the time/current characteristic curve, depending on the prospective current. It is a value that applies to the current squared (di/dt) = ). In the case of melting times tvs < 20 ms the virtual melting time tvs deviates from the actual melting time ts. The actual melting time may be several milliseconds longer (depending on the rate of current rise). Within a range of several milliseconds, during which the rise of the short-circuit current can be assumed to be linear, the actual melting time for a sinusoidal current rise and 50 Hz is as follows: 3 xI t s t = -------------s 2 I c

Permissible overload and melting time for previous load a = Frequent surge/load cycle currents (> 1/week) b = Infrequent surge/load cycle currents (< 1/week) c = Melting time for preloading

Permissible overload duration = residual value factor RW x melting time tvs (time/current characteristic curve) A reduction of the melting time of a fuse link in the case of preloading can be derived from curve c. Melting time = residual value factor RW x melting time tvs (time/current characteristic curve)

Let-through current Ic The let-through current Ic can be determined from the current limiting characteristics (current limitation at 50 Hz) specified for the respective fuse link. This depends on the prospective current and the DC component when the short-circuit occurs (instant of closing). The following graph shows the let-through current Ic of a fuse link, depending on the prospective short-circuit current Ip using the 3NE4 333-0B SITOR fuse link as an example. Peak arc voltage s During the quenching process, a peak arc voltage s occurs at the connections of the fuse link, which can significantly exceed the supply voltage. The level of the peak arc voltage depends on the design of the fuse link and the level of the recovery voltage. The characteristic curve shown below depends on the recovery voltage Uw (see the following graph).

Example: 3NE4 333-0B SITOR fuse link

The peak arc voltage occurs as a cutoff voltage at the semiconductor devices not in the shorted circuit. In order to prevent voltagerelated hazards, the peak arc voltage must not exceed the peak cutoff voltage of the semiconductor devices. Power dissipation, temperature rise On reaching the rated current, the fuse elements of the SITOR fuse links have a considerably higher temperature than the fuse elements of line protection fuse links. The power dissipation specified in the characteristic curve is the upper variance coefficient if the fuse link is loaded with the rated current. In the case of partial loads, this power dissipation decreases as shown in the following graph
100 Power dissipation at partial load (as a % of the power % dissipated at rated current) 80

Example: 3NE4 333-0B SITOR fuse link

Rated breaking capacity The rated breaking capacity of all SITOR fuse links is at least 50 kA, unless higher values are specified in the characteristic curves. This data applies to a test voltage of 1.1 x Un, 45 Hz to 62 Hz and 0.1 p.f. 0.2. In the case of inception voltages that are below the rated voltage, or rated currents of the fuse links that are below the maximum rated current of a fuse series, the breaking capacity is considerably higher than the rated breaking capacity.

Technical explanations
Parallel and series connection of fuse links Parallel connection If an arm of a converter connection has several semiconductor devices so that the fuse links are connected in parallel, only the fuse link connected in series to the faulty semiconductor device is tripped in the event of an internal short-circuit. It must quench the full supply voltage. To boost the voltage, two or more parallel fuse links can be assigned to a single semiconductor device without reducing the current. The resulting breaking I 2t value increases with the square of the number of parallel connections. In this case, in order to prevent incorrect distribution of the current, you should only use fuse links of the same type. Series connection There are two kinds of series connection available: Series connection in the converter arm 2 fused converter arms through which a short-circuit current flows in series In both cases, uniform voltage sharing can only be assumed if the melting time of the SITOR fuse link does not exceed the value specified in the following table.

Use with direct current For fuse links that are to be used in DC circuits, some data may vary from the data specified in the characteristic curves for alternating current. Permissible direct voltage The permissible direct voltage Uperm of the fuse links depends on the rated voltage Un, of the time constants = L/R in the DC circuit and on the prospective current Ip. The permissible direct voltage refers to the rated voltage Un and is specified depending on the time constants , the prospective current is a parameter (see the following graphs).

Cooling conditions for series-connected fuse links should be approximately the same. If faults are expected, during which the specified melting times are exceeded (as a result of a slower current rise), it can no longer be assumed that voltage sharing is uniform. The voltage of the fuse links must then be rated so that a single fuse link can quench the full supply voltage. It is best to avoid the series connection of fuse links in a converter connection arm and instead use a single fuse link with a suitably high rated voltage.

Melting I 2t value I 2tA The breaking I 2t value I 2tA depends on the voltage, on the time constants = L/R and on the prospective current Ip. It is calculated from the I 2tA value specified in the characteristic curve for the respective fuse link at rated voltage Un and correction factor kA whereby, instead of the recovery voltage Uw, the direct voltage is used against which the fuse link is to switch. The breaking I 2t value determined in this way applies under the following conditions: Time constants L/R 25 ms for Ip 20 x In Time constants L/R 10 ms for Ip = 10 x In The breaking I 2t values increases by 20 % For Ip 20 x In and time constants L/R = 60 ms For Ip = 10 x In and time constants L/R = 35 ms

The indicator of the SITOR fuse links has a transformer operational voltage between 20 V (Un 1000 V) and 40 V (Un > 1000 V). Accessories Fuse bases, fuse pullers Some of the SITOR fuse links can be inserted in matching fuse bases. The matching fuse bases (single-pole and three-pole) and the respective fuse pullers are listed in the technical specifications, from page page 2/4. Note Even if the values of the rated voltage and/or current of the fuse bases are lower than that of the allocated fuse link, the values of the fuse link apply. Fuse switch disconnectors, switch disconnectors with fuses Some series of SITOR fuse links are suitable for operation in 3NP4 and 3NP5 fuse switch disconnectors or in 3KL and 3KM switch disconnectors with fuses (see catalogs LV 10 and LV 30). When using switch disconnectors, the following points must be observed: Because, compared to LV HRC fuses, the power dissipation of the SITOR fuse links is higher, the permissible load current of the fuse links sometimes needs to be reduced, see below (Configuration manual). Fuse links with rated currents In > 63 A may also not be used for overload protection when they have gR operational class. Note All fuse links of the 3NE1 ... series with rated currents In from 16 A to 850 A and gR or gS operational classes can be used for overload protection. The rated voltage and rated isolation voltage of the switch disconnectors must at least correspond to the available voltage. When using fuse links of the 3NE3 2.., 3NE3 3.., 3NE4 3.., 3NC2 4.. and 3NC8 4.. series the switching capacity of the fuse switch disconnectors must not be fully utilized due to the slotted blade. Occasional switching of currents up to the rated current of the fuse link is permissible When used in fuse switch disconnectors, fuse links of the 3NE4 1.. series may only be occasionally switched, and only without load, as this places the fuse blade under great mechanical stress. In the technical specifications, from page 2/4, the switch disconnectors are allocated to their respective individual fuse links. The permissible load of the fuse link and the required conductor cross-section can be found in the configuration manual "Configuring SITOR", Order No.: E20001-A700-P302.

Specifying the rated current

I Overview
Specifying the rated current In for non-aging operation with varying load Power converters are often operated not with a continuous load, but with varying loads, that can also temporarily exceed the rated current of the power converter. The selection process for non-aging operation of SITOR fuse links for four typical types of load is as follows:1) Continuous load Unknown varying load, but with known maximum current Varying load with known load cycle Occasional surge load from preloading with unknown surge outcome The diagrams for the correction factors ku, kq, k , kl, page 2/79, and the residual value factor RW, see page 2/82, must be observed. The varying load factor WL for the fuse links is specified on page 2/80. Specifying the required rated current In of the fuse link is carried out in two steps: 1.

Terms

I Overview
The following provides an explanation of the standard terms used when using fuse links for semiconductor protection. Further definitions can be found in EN 60269-1. Rated breaking capacity The rated breaking capacity is the highest prospective short-circuit current Ip that the fuse link can blow under prescribed conditions at 1.1 rated voltage. Rated frequency The rated frequency is the frequency for which the fuse link is rated with regard to power dissipation, current, voltage, characteristic curve and breaking capacity. Rated voltage Un The rated voltage is the designated voltage of the fuse and according to which test conditions and operational voltage limits are determined. For SITOR fuse links, the rated voltage is always the r.m.s. value of an AC voltage. Rated current In The rated current of a fuse link is the designated current of the fuse link and is the current up to which it can be continuously loaded under prescribed conditions (see page 2/78) without adverse affects. Operational class The operational class is the designation of the function class of a fuse link in connection with the object to be protected. gS operational class: Full range semiconductor safety fuse for use in safety switching devices gR operational class: Full range semiconductor protection aR operational class: Back-up semiconductor protection Let-through current Ic The let-through current Ic is the maximum instantaneous value of the current reached during a switching operation of the fuse. Let-through current characteristic curve The let-through current characteristic curve specifies the value of the let-through current at 50 Hz as a function of the prospective current. Function class The function class means the ability of a fuse link to carry specific currents without damage and to switch off over-currents within a certain range (breaking capacity range). Function class a Back-up fuses: Fuse links, that carry currents at least up to their rated current and can interrupt currents above a specific multiple of their rated current up to their rated breaking capacity. Function class g Full range fuses: Fuse links that can continuously carry currents up to at least their rated current and can interrupt currents from the smallest melting current through to the rated breaking capacity.

I 2t value The I 2t value (joule integral) is the integral of the current squared over a specific time interval: t1 I t =
2

i t0

dt

Specifies the I 2t values for the melting process (I 2ts) and for the shutdown cycle (I 2tA, sum of melting and quenching I 2t value). Power dissipation Power dissipation is the power loss during the load of a fuse link with its rated current under prescribed conditions. Peak arc voltage s The peak arc voltage is the highest value of the voltage that occurs at the contacts of the fuse link during the arc quenching time. Residual value factor RW The residual value factor is a reduction factor for determining the permissible load period of the fuse link with currents that exceed the permissible load current In' (see rated current In). Prospective short-circuit current Ip The prospective short-circuit current is the r.m.s. value of the linefrequency AC component, or the value of the direct current to be expected in the event of a short-circuit occurring after the fuse, were the fuse to be replaced by a component of negligible impedance. Virtual time tv The virtual time is the time span calculated when a I2t value is divided by the square of the prospective current:

tv

i d-t = ---------------2

Ip

The time/current characteristic curve gives the virtual melting time tvs. Varying load factor WL The varying load factor is a reduction factor for the rated current with varying load states. Recovery voltage Uw The recovery voltage (r.m.s. value) is the voltage that occurs at the contacts of a fuse link after the power is cut off. Time/current characteristic curve The time/current characteristic curve specifies the virtual time (e.g. the melting time) as a function of the prospective current under specific operating conditions.

The melting time characteristic curve runs from the smallest melting current, which just about melts the fuse element, asymptotic to the I2t lines of the same joule value in the range of the higher short-circuit currents, which specifies the constant joule value I2t. To avoid overcomplication, the time/current characteristic curve diagrams omit the I2t lines (c).

P

The Siemens characteristic curves show the mean virtual melting time characteristic curves recorded at an ambient temperature of (20 5) C. They do not apply to preloaded fuse links. The fuse element of the fuse links melts so quickly at very high currents that the surge short-circuit current Ip is prevented from occurring. The highest instantaneous value of the current reached during the shutdown cycle is called the let-through current Ic. The current limitations are specified in the current limiting diagrams, otherwise known as let-through current diagrams.

I2_06997b

The shape of the characteristic curve depends on the outwards heat transfer from the fuse element. DIN VDE 0636 specifies tolerancedependent time/current ranges within which the characteristic curves of the fuse must lie. Deviations of 10 % are permissible in the direction of the current axis. With Siemens LV HRC fuse links of gL/gG operational class, the deviations work out at less than 5 % a mark of outstanding quality. For currents up to approx. 20 In, the melting time-current characteristic curves are the same as the break time characteristic curves. In the case of higher short-circuit currents, the two characteristic curves move apart, influenced by the respective arc quenching time. The difference between both lines (= arc quenching time) also depends on the power factor, the operational voltage and the breaking current.
