Footnotes for the preceding tables:
Note 1: The protection method conforms to JEM 1030.
Note 2: The applicable motor refers to Hitachi standard 3-phase motor (4-pole). When using
other motors, care must be taken to prevent the rated motor current (50/60 Hz) from
exceeding the rated output current of the inverter.
Note 3: The output voltage decreases as the main supply voltage decreases (except when
using the AVR function). In any case, the output voltage cannot exceed the input
power supply voltage.
Note 4: To operate the motor beyond 50/60 Hz, consult the motor manufacturer for the
maximum allowable rotation speed.
Note 5: The braking resistor is not installed in the inverter. When your application requires a
high regenerative torque, use the optional regenerative braking unit and resistor (see
Chapter 5).
Note 6: The storage temperature refers to the short-term temperature during transport.
Note 7: Conforms to the test method specified in JIS C0911 (1984). For the model types
excluded in the standard specifications, contact your Hitachi sales representative.
Note 8: When using the inverter in a dust-prone area, we recommend the optional varnish
coating specification for the inverter.
Note 9: When using a remote operator keypad and cable, be sure to remove the RJ45 modular
interconnect from the inverter’s keypad port before connecting the cable.
Note 10: When using the inverter from 40° to 50°C ambient, the output current of the inverter
must be derated (see the next section on derating curves).
Note 11: NEMA 1 applies to inverter models up to 30kW (–300xxx). An optional wire-entry
conduit box is required for inverter models 37kW to 75kW (–370 to –750xxx) to
meet the NEMA 1 rating.
L300P Inverter
Derating CurvesThe maximum available inverter current output is limited by the carrier frequency and ambient
temperature. The carrier frequency is the inverter’s internal power switching frequency, settable
from 0.5 kHz to 12 kHz, or 0.5 kHz to 8 kHz for higher horsepower models. Choosing a higher
carrier frequency tends to decrease audible noise, but it also increases the internal heating of the
inverter, thus decreasing (derating) the maximum current output capability. Ambient temperature is the temperature just outside the inverter housing—such as inside the control cabinet
where the inverter is mounted. A higher ambient temperature decreases (derates) the inverter’s
maximum current output capacity.
Use the following derating curves to help determine the optimal carrier frequency setting for
your inverter, and to find the output current derating. Be sure to use the proper curve for your
particular L300P inverter model number.
