Product Information

Product Family: 9300 Servo | Series: 9300

The Lenze EVS9321-ES is a 0.75 kW servo inverter from the Lenze 9300 Servo series, engineered for precise closed-loop speed and position control in automated industrial machinery. Operating from a nominal 3-phase supply of 400 V AC to 480 V AC across an input range of 320 V AC to 528 V AC, this drive delivers a continuous rated output current of 2.5 A into motor phases ranging from 0 V AC to 480 V AC. It is housed in an IP20 protection enclosure designed for space-saving vertical control cabinet mounting and features a peak output capacity of 3.75 A (150% overload) to handle demanding dynamic acceleration profiles in packaging, material handling, textile, and assembly applications.

Connecting and commissioning a replacement EVS9321-ES requires precise configuration alignment with the existing machine system. The drive supports feedback evaluation for standard resolvers and incremental encoders, while system integration is facilitated through 6 digital inputs, 4 digital outputs, 2 analog inputs, 2 analog outputs, and an integrated CAN system bus. It also features a pluggable Automation Interface (AIF) slot that accommodates optional communication modules such as the PROFIBUS-DP module (EMF2133IB). A spare drive cannot be put directly into service without transferring the system configuration; application parameters stored in non-volatile EEPROM memory must be loaded using Lenze Global Drive Control (GDC) software via a USB-CAN adapter (EMF2177IB) or transferred using the pluggable XT Keypad (EMF2102IB). ABC Industrial Parts can assist maintenance teams with sourcing verified spare units and transferring parameter sets during field swaps.

Diagnostic monitoring on the EVS9321-ES is provided through status LEDs, the XT Keypad, and GDC software diagnostic windows. Onboard LEDs indicate drive operational states, including a Green Ready status, Red Trip/Fault alert, and Yellow IMP pulse inhibit indicator, while an internal fault buffer records the last four TRIP messages alongside status codes C0183 and C0168. Line supply issues like phase loss (P12), DC bus overvoltage (OU), or resolver wiring faults at terminal X7 (rER) can be diagnosed by checking mains input voltage, braking choppers, and feedback cables. However, critical hardware issues like code H05 or persistent EEPROM read/write errors (EER) point to unserviceable internal board failures; in these instances, replacing the unit with a tested spare from ABC Industrial Parts is the fastest route back to production.

Programming and Configuration

Drive setup and parameter adjustment for the Lenze EVS9321-ES are performed using Lenze Global Drive Control (GDC) software or the pluggable XT Keypad (EMF2102IB). The internal non-volatile EEPROM memory stores up to four complete parameter sets, enabling multi-recipe management and quick parameter restoration following maintenance operations.

To transfer parameters using a PC, the system connects via a USB-CAN Adapter (EMF2177IB) running GDC software. If a complete configuration reset is necessary before re-commissioning a unit on a new machine, setting parameter C0002 to 1 executes a factory default reset, allowing technicians to apply a fresh project file without residual parameter conflicts.

Communication and System Integration

The EVS9321-ES features an onboard CAN system bus designed for high-speed inter-drive communication, multi-axis motion synchronization, electronic shaft configurations, and cascade positioning systems. Reliable operation across the CAN network requires correct line impedance with 120-Ohm termination resistors installed at physical end nodes, proper cable shielding, and matching baud rate settings across all connected drives.

For integration into broader industrial automation networks, the drive includes a pluggable Automation Interface (AIF) slot. This interface supports optional fieldbus modules including PROFIBUS-DP (EMF2133IB), DeviceNet, Interbus, and serial LECOM options. Additional control connections are routed through hardwired terminal strips providing 6 digital inputs, 4 digital outputs, 2 analog inputs, and 2 analog outputs.

Diagnostics and Status Indication

Visual status indication on the EVS9321-ES is provided by three diagnostic LEDs located on the front panel: Green (Ready), Red (Trip/Fault), and Yellow (IMP/Pulse Inhibit). These LEDs instantly indicate whether the drive is operational, disabled, or locked in a trip condition.

Comprehensive diagnostic routines are accessible through the XT Keypad status monitor (register C0168) or the GDC software diagnostic window. The drive maintains an internal fault buffer log (register C0183) that records the last four TRIP messages complete with diagnostic codes and timestamps, enabling technicians to analyze root causes for intermitted stoppages.

Status LED Indicators

LEDColor/StatusMeaning
ReadyGreen - Blinking / SolidBlinking green: Controller initialized, power stage inhibited; Solid green: Controller operational / drive ready
Trip / FaultRed - Blinking / SolidBlinking red: Warning / active message; Solid red: Fault active / Trip state (power stage disabled)
IMP / Pulse InhibitYellow - SolidSolid yellow: Power stage pulses are inhibited (controller disable active)

Replacement and Spare Part Considerations

When replacing an EVS9321-ES servo inverter, confirm that the replacement unit shares the exact part number and electrical ratings (0.75 kW power rating, 2.5 A continuous current, 320–528 V AC input). Any fieldbus communication card installed in the original drive's AIF slot—such as a PROFIBUS-DP module—must be physically transferred to the replacement unit and seated securely before power-up.

A replacement drive will not operate correctly out of the box without transferring the original application parameters. Parameters stored in the non-volatile EEPROM must be transferred using the XT Keypad (EMF2102IB) or uploaded/downloaded via Lenze Global Drive Control (GDC) software using the USB-CAN Adapter (EMF2177IB). Verify all wiring terminals prior to commissioning, paying close attention to resolver feedback connections at terminal X7 and PTC thermal motor protection at terminal X10.

Frequently Asked Questions

What tools are needed to transfer parameters to a replacement Lenze EVS9321-ES?

Parameter sets can be transferred using the pluggable XT Keypad (EMF2102IB) or uploaded and downloaded with Lenze Global Drive Control (GDC) software connected through a USB-CAN Adapter (EMF2177IB).

Can I install an EVS9321-ES drive without reconfiguring parameters?

No. A replacement unit must be loaded with the machine-specific parameter set from the original drive's EEPROM memory or GDC backup file before the drive can operate properly.

What does fault code H05 indicate on the EVS9321-ES?

Fault code H05 signifies an internal hardware monitoring fault, such as an internal power supply voltage failure or processor test error. This issue cannot be serviced in the field and requires drive repair or replacement.

How do I resolve a resolver fault indicated by code rER?

Inspect the resolver cable and connector seated at terminal X7, verify shielding against electrical noise, and check the motor's internal resolver winding for damage or signal degradation.

Which fieldbus modules are compatible with the AIF slot on the EVS9321-ES?

The pluggable AIF slot supports optional modules including PROFIBUS-DP (EMF2133IB), DeviceNet, Interbus, and serial LECOM communication modules.
