This manual provides safety guidelines, installation notes and start‑up procedures for the ABB DCS 600 MultiDrive thyristor power converters used in DC drive systems. It details required earthing, de‑energising steps, and the qualifications needed for personnel working on the equipment.
The document also describes the control panel CDP 312 functions, parameter setting, fault resetting, and signal diagnostics, with specific sections for Profibus, Modbus PLUS, CS 31 and other fieldbus interfaces.

All work must be performed by qualified staff, the unit must be properly earthing, completely switched off and verified de‑energised before any maintenance.
Emergency stop buttons must be installed at each control desk; pressing the STOP button on the CDP 312 does not disconnect the drive, so a dedicated emergency stop circuit is required.
A switch disconnector complying with EN 60947‑3, Class B, or an equivalent circuit‑breaker with auxiliary contacts must be used and locked in the OPEN position during work.
