● Trip-less by regenerative avoidance control (effective for acceleration, deceleration
and fixed speed)
Because amount of energy to be regenerated to the inverter is limited and
acceleration/deceleration time is controlled, equipment can be operated without overvoltage
trip.

● Continued operation of equipment by overload avoidance control
If the inverter becomes overloaded in the case where inverter internal temperature rises
radically from increased load or ambient temperature rises abnormally, operation is continued
by reducing the load by reducing motor speed.

●Commercial operation switching
Because the inverter is equipped with a commercial frequency start processing function for
switching commercial / inverter operation by external sequence, peripheral equipment
configuration can be simplified. The inverter is equipped with 2 types of commercial operation
switching sequences: Fuji standard and inverter alarm automatic commercial switching
sequence.

● Operation signal trouble is also avoided by command loss detection function.
If the frequency signal connected to the inverter (0 - 10V, 4 - 20 mA, multiple stage speed
operation signal, communication, etc.) is blocked, the fact that frequency command has been
lost is output as a “command loss” signal. You can furthermore set output frequency for
command loss in advance, so the equipment can continue to operate even if the frequency
signal is cut off by mechanical vibration, etc.
fr
●Low torque detection also possible
If a problem such as fan belt breaking and load connected to the motor becomes exponentially
lighter all of a sudden, detects that torque has dropped and outputs it as an output signal.
Abnormal status of the equipment can be detected using this signal, so it can be utilized as
equipment maintenance information.

● Password function
Function codes can be read/write, displayed or hidden by setting the two passwords. This
prevents erroneous operation or overwriting of function codes. In addition, if a wrong password
was input exceeding the specified number of times, the inverter is restricted from operating as
the user is regarded as improper.
1.1 Features
-HVAC
● Filter clogging prevention function
This function detects clogging of the fan filter with dust or other materials using the output
current and pressure sensor value. When clogging is detected, the fan is rotated in reverse
to eject dust, and then resumes rotation in forward to blow air. In addition, the function notifies
you of maintenance necessity with the alarm signal.
Equipped with function that contributes to energy conservation.
Automatic energy-saving operation
Considering that fact that “control that minimizes motor loss” has evolved and the loss of the
inverter itself, the device has been “equipped with a new type of control to minimize loss of the
motor plus the inverter” to further conserve electric power for fan and pump applications.

● Wet-bulb temperature presumption control
This function is optimal for controlling the fan of cooling tower. Since the wet-bulb temperature
would become higher than the set temperature when the air temperature is particularly high,
water temperature will not reach the set temperature. Therefore, the fan keeps rotating at high
speed, failing in energy-saving operation. FRENIC-HVAC automatically estimates
the wet-bulb temperature and controls the fan so that the cooling water is interlocked with the air
temperature in order not to use unnecessary electric power.

● Linearization function
This function estimates the target pressure using the load flow rate, which allows the estimated
terminal pressure to be controlled. For an air-conditioning heat source system, the needed
quantity of the cooling or heating water fluctuates generally in seasons or days and nights.
Therefore, operations continuing in a water conveyance pressure constant control may lead to
high operating unnecessary pressures on terminals at low operating state. Thus, the pump
consumes an ineffectual electric power for maintaining the high water conveyance pressure.
↓
Based on the calculated value and water conveyance pressure of estimated terminal pressure
using the detected load flow rate, PID control is performed.
↓
It is possible to reduce the ineffectual pump power consumption and to achieve a great
energy-saving effect together with maintaining comfortable current air conditioning.

1.1 Features
Motor protection by PTC thermistor
By connecting the Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC) thermistor embedded in the motor to
the C1 pin, motor temperature is detected to protect the motor by shutting off the inverter before
the motor overheats. You can select whether to shut off the inverter (stop by alarm) or output
alarm from transistor output by PTC protection level.

2.3.2 Setting up the slide switches
Before changing the switches, turn OFF the power and wait at least ten minutes. Make sure that the LCD
monitor is turned OFF. Further, make sure, using a multimeter or a similar instrument, that the DC link
bus voltage between the terminals P(+) and N(-) has dropped to the safe level (+25 VDC or below).
An electric shock may result if this warning is not heeded as there may be some residual electric
charge in the DC bus capacitor even after the power has been turned OFF.
Switching the slide switches located on the control PCB allows you to customize the operation mode
of the analog output terminals, digital I/O terminals, and communications ports. The locations of those
switches are shown in Figure 2.11.

2.5 Leakage Current of the EMC Filter
This product uses grounding capacitors for noise suppression which increase the leakage current.
Check whether there is no problem with power supply systems.
As the leakage current of the EMC filter is relatively high, it is important to always assure a reliable
connection to Protection Earth (PE).
An electric shock may occur.

When increasing the carrier frequency setting (Function code F26) greater than the factory default 2
kHz, you need to derate the output current rating. Derating allows the higher ambient temperature than
the rating. The tables below list the derating factors in relation to the carrier frequency and ambient
temperature. Use the inverters within the range specified below.

Precautions for temporary storage
(1) Do not leave the inverter directly on the floor.
(2) If the environment does not satisfy the specified requirements listed in Table 2.6 wrap the
inverter in an airtight vinyl sheet or the like for storage.
(3) If the inverter is to be stored in a high-humidity environment, put a drying agent (such as silica
gel) in the airtight package described in item (2).
2.7.2.2 Long-term storage
The long-term storage method of the inverter varies largely according to the environment of the
storage site. General storage methods are described below.
(1) The storage site must satisfy the requirements specified for temporary storage.
However, for storage exceeding three months, the ambient temperature range should be within the
range from -10 to 30°C (14 to 86°F). This is to prevent electrolytic capacitors in the inverter from
deterioration.
(2) The package must be airtight to protect the inverter from moisture. Add a drying agent inside the
package to maintain the relative humidity inside the package within 70%.
(3) If the inverter has been installed to the equipment or panel at construction sites where it may be
subjected to humidity, dust or dirt, then temporarily remove the inverter and store it in the
environment specified in Table 2.6.
Precautions for storage over 1 year
If the inverter has not been powered on for a long time, the property of the electrolytic capacitors may
deteriorate. Power the inverters on once a year and keep the inverters powering on for 30 to 60 minutes.
Do not connect the inverters to the load circuit (secondary side) or run the inverter.

2.8.1 Precautions in introducing inverters
This section provides precautions in introducing inverters, e.g. precautions for installation
environment, power supply lines, wiring, and connection to peripheral equipment. Be sure to observe
those precautions.
Installation environment
Install the inverter in an environment that satisfies the requirements listed in Table 2.4 in Section 2.7.1.
Fuji Electric strongly recommends installing inverters in a panel for safety reasons, in particular, when
installing the ones whose enclosure rating is UL open type.
When installing the inverter in a place out of the specified environmental requirements, it is necessary
to derate the inverter or consider the panel engineering suitable for the special environment or the
panel installation location.

previously fumigated wooden crate.
- When packing an inverter alone for
export, use a laminated veneer lumber
(LVL).
Exporting.
Wiring precautions
(1) Route the wiring of the control circuit terminals as far from the wiring of the main circuit as
possible. Otherwise electric noise may cause malfunctions.
(2) Fix the control circuit wires with a cable tie inside the inverter to keep them away from the live
parts of the
main circuit (such as the terminal block of the main circuit).
(3) If more than one motor is to be connected to a single inverter, the wiring length should be the
sum of the length of the wires to the motors.
(4) Precautions for high frequency leakage currents
If the wiring distance between an inverter and a motor is long, high frequency currents flowing
through stray capacitance across wires of phases may cause an inverter overheat, overcurrent trip,
increase of leakage current, or it may not assure the accuracy in measuring leakage current.
Depending on the operating condition, an excessive leakage current may damage the inverter.
To avoid the above problems when directly connecting an inverter to a motor, keep the wiring
distance 50 m (165 ft) or less for inverters of 3.7kW (5 HP) or below, and 100 m (328 ft) or less
for inverters of a higher capacity. Output circuit filters cannot be used with the three-phase 575V
class series.
If the wiring distance longer than the specified above is required, lower the carrier frequency or
insert an output circuit filter (OFL--A) as shown below.
When a single inverter drives two or more motors connected in parallel (group drive), in
particular, when using shielded wires, the stray capacitance to the earth is large, so lower the
carrier frequency or insert an output circuit filter (OFL--A).
Output circuit filters cannot
be used with the three-phase 575V class series.
No output circuit filter installed Output circuit filter installed
For an inverter with an output circuit filter installed, the total secondary wiring length should be
400 m (1312 ft) or less.
If further longer secondary wiring is required, consult your Fuji Electric representative.
(5) Precautions for surge voltage in driving a motor by an inverter
If the motor is driven by a PWM-type inverter, surge voltage generated by switching the inverter
component may be superimposed on the output voltage and may be applied to the motor
terminals. Particularly if the wiring length is long, the surge voltage may deteriorate the
insulation resistance of the motor. Implement any of the following measures.
- Use a motor with insulation that withstands the surge voltage. (All Fuji standard motors
feature reinforced insulation.)
- Connect a surge suppressor unit (SSU50/100TA-NS) at the motor terminal.
- Connect an output circuit filter (OFL--A) to the output terminals (secondary circuits)
of the inverter.
- Minimize the wiring length between the inverter and motor (10 to 20 m (33 to 66ft) or less).

in the upstream power supply line in order to avoid the entire power supply system's shutdown
leakage circuit breaker (ELCB) individually to inverters to break the individual inverter power supply
From the system's safety point of view, it is recommended to employ such a sequence that
shuts down the magnetic contactor (MC) in the inverter input circuit with an alarm output
signal
issued on inverter's programmable output terminals. The sequence minimizes
the secondary damage even if the inverter breaks.
When the sequence is employed, connecting the MC's primary power line to the inverter's
auxiliary control power input makes it possible to monitor the inverter's alarm status on the
keypad.
(6) When an output circuit filter is inserted in the secondary circuit or the wiring between the
inverter and the motor is long, a voltage loss occurs due to reactance of the filter or wiring so that
the insufficient voltage may cause output current oscillation or a lack of motor output torque. To
avoid it, select the constant torque load by setting the function code F37 (Load Selection/Auto
Torque Boost/Auto Energy Saving Operation 1) to "1" and keep the inverter output voltage at a
higher level by configuring H50/H52 (Non-linear V/f Pattern, Frequency) and H51/H53
(Non-linear V/f Pattern, Voltage).
Precautions for connection of peripheral equipment
(1) Power supply lines (Using AC reactor)
If the interphase voltage unbalance ratio of the inverter power supply is 2 to 3%, use an optional
AC reactor (ACR).
(See IEC/EN 61800-3.)
(2) Molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) or residual-current-operated protective device (RCD)/earth
leakage circuit breaker (ELCB)
Install a recommended MCCB or RCD/ELCB (with overcurrent protection) in the primary
circuit of the inverter to protect the wiring. Since using an MCCB or RCD/ELCB with a lager
capacity than recommended ones breaks the protective coordination of the power supply system,
be sure to select recommended ones. Also select ones with short-circuit breaking capacity
suitable for the power source impedance.
If no zero-phase current (earth leakage current) detective device such as a ground-fault relay is installed
undesirable to factory operation, install a residual-current-operated protective device (RCD)/earth
lines only.
Otherwise, a fire could occur.
(3) Magnetic contactor (MC) in the inverter input (primary) circuit
Avoid frequent ON/OFF operation of the magnetic contactor (MC) in the input circuit; otherwise,
the inverter failure may result. If frequent start/stop of the motor is required, use FWD/REV
terminal signals or the / and keys on the inverter's keypad.
The frequency of the MC's ON/OFF should not be more than once per 30 minutes. To assure
5-year or longer service life of the inverter, it should not be more than once per hour.
ALM
(4) Magnetic contactor (MC) in the inverter output (secondary) circuit
If a magnetic contactor (MC) is inserted in the inverter's output (secondary) circuit for switching
the motor to a commercial power or for any other purposes, it should be switched on and off
when both the inverter and motor are completely stopped. This prevents the contact point from
getting rough due to a switching arc of the MC. The MC should not be equipped with any main
circuit surge killer (Fuji SZ-ZM etc.).
Applying a commercial power to the inverter's output circuit breaks the inverter. To avoid it,
interlock the MC on the motor's commercial power line with the one in the inverter output circuit
so that they are not switched ON at the same time.
(5) Surge absorber/surge killer
Do not install any surge absorber or surge killer in the inverter's output (secondary) lines.

2.8 Precautions for Using Inverters
Noise reduction
If noise generated from the inverter affects other devices, or that generated from peripheral equipment
causes the inverter to malfunction, follow the basic measures outlined below.
(1) If noise generated from the inverter affects the other devices through power wires or grounding
wires:
- Isolate the grounding terminals of the inverter from those of the other devices.
- Connect a noise filter to the inverter power wires.
- Isolate the power system of the other devices from that of the inverter with an insulated
transformer.
- Decrease the inverter's carrier frequency (F26).
(2) If induction or radio noise generated from the inverter affects other devices:
- Isolate the main circuit wires from the control circuit wires and other device wires.
- Put the main circuit wires through a metal conduit pipe, and connect the pipe to the ground
near the inverter.
- Install the inverter into the metal panel and connect the whole panel to the ground.
- Connect a noise filter to the inverter's power wires.
- Decrease the inverter's carrier frequency (F26).
(3) When implementing measures against noise generated from peripheral equipment:
- For inverter's control signal wires, use twisted or shielded-twisted wires. When using
shielded-twisted wires, connect the shield of the shielded wires to the common terminals of
the control circuit.
- Connect a surge absorber in parallel with magnetic contactor's coils or other solenoids (if
any).
Leakage current
A high frequency current component generated by insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs)
switching on/off inside the inverter becomes leakage current through stray capacitance of inverter
input and output wires or a motor. If any of the problems listed below occurs, take an appropriate
measure against them.
Problem Measures
An earth leakage circuit
breaker* that is connected
to the input (primary) side
has tripped.
* With overcurrent protection
An external thermal relay
was activated.
1) Decrease the carrier frequency.
2) Make the wires between the inverter and motor shorter.
3) Use an earth leakage circuit breaker with lower sensitivity than the
one currently used.
1) Decrease the carrier frequency.
2) Increase the setting current of the thermal relay.
3) Use the electronic thermal overload protection built in the inverter,
instead of the external thermal relay.
Selecting inverter capacity
(1) To drive a general-purpose motor, select an inverter according to the nominal applied motor
rating listed in the standard specifications table. When high starting torque is required or quick
acceleration or deceleration is required, select an inverter with one rank higher capacity than the
standard.
(2) Special motors may have larger rated current than general-purpose ones. In such a case, select an
inverter that meets the following condition.
Inverter rated current > Motor rated current

2.8.2 Precautions in running inverters
Precautions for running inverters to drive motors or motor-driven machinery are described below.
Motor temperature
When an inverter is used to run a general-purpose motor, the motor temperature becomes higher than
when it is operated with a commercial power supply. In the low-speed range, the motor cooling effect
will be weakened, so decrease the output torque of the motor when running the inverter in the
low-speed range.
Motor noise
When a general-purpose motor is driven by an inverter, the noise level is higher than that when it is
driven by a commercial power supply. To reduce noise, raise the carrier frequency of the inverter.
Operation at 60 Hz or higher can also result in higher noise level.
Machine vibration
When an inverter-driven motor is mounted to a machine, resonance may be caused by the natural
frequencies of the motor-driven machinery. Driving a 2-pole motor at 60 Hz or higher may cause
abnormal vibration. If it happens, do any of the following:
- Consider the use of a rubber coupling or vibration-proof rubber.
- Use the inverter's jump frequency control feature to skip the resonance frequency zone(s).
- Use the vibration suppression related function codes that may be effective. For details, refer to the
description of H80 in Chapter 6 "FUNCTION CODES."
2.8.3 Precautions in using special motors
When using special motors, note the followings.
Submersible motors and pumps
These motors have a larger rated current than general-purpose motors. Select an inverter whose rated
output current is greater than that of the motor. These motors differ from general-purpose motors in
thermal characteristics. Decrease the thermal time constant of the electronic thermal overload
protection to match the motor rating.
Brake motors
For motors equipped with parallel-connected brakes, their power supply for braking must be supplied
from the inverter input (primary) circuit. If the power supply for braking is mistakenly connected to
the inverter's output (secondary) circuit, the brake may not work when the inverter output is shut down.
Do not use inverters for driving motors equipped with series-connected brakes.
Geared motors
If the power transmission mechanism uses an oil-lubricated gearbox or speed changer/reducer, then
continuous operation at low speed may cause poor lubrication. Avoid such operation.
