CAUTION: Fasten the screws with the specified fastening torque in the
table below. Check for any loosening of screws. Otherwise, there is the
danger of fire.
CAUTION: Remarks for using ground fault interrupter breakers in the main
power supply: Adjustable frequency inverters with CE-filters (RFI-filter)
and shielded (screened) motor cables have a higher leakage current toward
Earth GND. Especially at the moment of switching ON this can cause an
inadvertent trip of ground fault interrupter breakers. Because of the rectifier
on the input side of the inverter there is the possibility to stall the switch-off
function through small amounts of DC current. Please observe the following: • Use only short time-invariant and pulse current-sensitive ground fault
interrupter breakers with higher trigger current. • Other components should
be secured with separate ground fault interrupter breakers. • Ground fault
interrupter breakers in the power input wiring of an inverter are not an
absolute protection against electric shock.
CAUTION: Be sure to install a fuse in each phase of the main power supply
to the inverter. Otherwise, there is the danger of fire.
CAUTION: For motor leads, ground fault interrupter breakers and electromagnetic contactors, be sure to size these components properly (each must
have the capacity for rated current and voltage). Otherwise, there is the
danger of fire.
CAUTION: Failure to remove all vent opening covers before electrical
operation may result in damage to the inverter.

WARNING: Be sure to turn ON the input power supply only after closing
the front case. While the inverter is energized, be sure not to open the front
case. Otherwise, there is the danger of electric shock.
WARNING: Be sure not to operate electrical equipment with wet hands.
Otherwise, there is the danger of electric shock.
WARNING: While the inverter is energized, be sure not to touch the
inverter terminals even when the motor is stopped. Otherwise, there is the
danger of electric shock.
WARNING: If the Retry Mode is selected, the motor may suddenly restart
after a trip stop. Be sure to stop the inverter before approaching the machine
(be sure to design the machine so that safety for personnel is secure even if
it restarts.) Otherwise, it may cause injury to personnel.
WARNING: If the power supply is cut OFF for a short period of time, the
inverter may restart operation after the power supply recovers if the Run
command is active. If a restart may pose danger to personnel, so be sure to
use a lock-out circuit so that it will not restart after power recovery. Otherwise, it may cause injury to personnel.
WARNING: The Stop Key is effective only when the Stop function is
enabled. Be sure to enable the Stop Key separately from the emergency
stop. Otherwise, it may cause injury to personnel.
WARNING: During a trip event, if the alarm reset is applied and the Run
command is present, the inverter will automatically restart. Be sure to apply
the alarm reset only after verifying the Run command is OFF. Otherwise, it
may cause injury to personnel.

WARNING: If power is turned ON when the Run command is already
active, the motor will automatically start and injury may result. Before
turning ON the power, confirm that the RUN command is not present.
WARNING: When the Stop key function is disabled, pressing the Stop key
does not stop the inverter, nor will it reset a trip alarm.
WARNING: Be sure to provide a separate, hard-wired emergency stop
switch when the application warrants it.
WARNING: If the power is turned ON and the Run command is already
active, the motor starts rotation and is dangerous! Before turning power ON,
confirm that the external Run command is not active.
WARNING: After the Reset command is given and the alarm reset occurs,
the motor will restart suddenly if the Run command is already active. Be
sure to set the alarm reset after verifying that the Run command is OFF to
prevent injury to personnel.
WARNING: You may need to disconnect the load from the motor before
performing auto-tuning. The inverter runs the motor forward and backward
for several seconds without regard to load movement limits.

CAUTION: It is possible to damage the inverter or other devices if your
application exceeds the maximum current or voltage characteristics of a
connection point.
CAUTION: Be careful not to turn PID Clear ON and reset the integrator
sum when the inverter is in Run Mode (output to motor is ON). Otherwise,
this could cause the motor to decelerate rapidly, resulting in a trip.
CAUTION: When the motor runs at lower speeds, the cooling effect of the
motor’s internal fan decreases.
CAUTION: If the inverter capacity is more than twice the capacity of the
motor in use, the inverter may not achieve its full performance specifications.

When there has been a sudden power failure while a Run command is active, then the unit may
restart operation automatically after the power failure has ended. If there is a possibility that
such an occurrence may harm humans, then install an electromagnetic contactor on the power
supply side, so that the circuit does not allow automatic restarting after the power supply recovers. If an optional remote operator is used and the retry function has been selected, this will also
allow automatic restarting when a Run command is active. So, please be careful.

CAUTION: Be sure to connect the grounding terminal to earth ground.
CAUTION: When inspecting the unit, be sure to wait five minutes after tuning OFF the power
supply before opening the cover.
CAUTION: SUPPRESSION FOR NOISE INTERFERENCE FROM INVERTER
The inverter uses many semiconductor switching elements such as transistors and IGBTs.
Thus, a radio receiver or measuring instrument located near the inverter is susceptible to noise
interference.
To protect the instruments from erroneous operation due to noise interference, they should be
used well away from the inverter. It is also effective to shield the whole inverter structure.
The addition of an EMI filter on the input side of the inverter also reduces the effect of noise
from the commercial power line on external devices.
Note that the external dispersion of noise from the power line can be minimized by connecting
an EMI filter on the primary side of inverter.

CAUTION: MOTOR TERMINAL VOLTAGE SURGE SUPPRESSION FILTER
(For 400 V CLASS Inverters)
In a system using an inverter with the voltage control PWM system, a voltage surge caused by
the cable constants such as the cable length (especially when the distance between the motor
and inverter is 10 m or more) and cabling method may occur at the motor terminals. A
dedicated filter of the 400 V class for suppressing this voltage surge is available. Be sure to
install a filter in this situation. (See “LCR filter” on page 5–2, part type HRL–xxxC.)
CAUTION: EFFECTS OF POWER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS ON INVERTERS
In the cases below involving a general-purpose inverter, a large peak current can flow on the
power supply side, sometimes destroying the converter module:
1. The unbalance factor of the power supply is 3% or higher.
2. The power supply capacity is at least 10 times greater than the inverter capacity (or the
power supply capacity is 500 kVA or more).
3. Abrupt power supply changes are expected, due to conditions such as:
a. Several inverters are interconnected with a short bus.
b. A thyristor converter and an inverter are interconnected with a short bus.
c. An installed phase advance capacitor opens and closes.
Where these conditions exist or when the connected equipment must be highly reliable, you
MUST install an input-side AC reactor of 3% (at a voltage drop at rated current) with respect to
the supply voltage on the power supply side. Also, where the effects of an indirect lightning
strike are possible, install a lightning conductor.
xi
General Caution
CAUTION: Do not install inverters in a corner-grounded Delta distribution system. The resulting line imbalance will cause premature line fuse failure and failure of the inverter input bridge
rectifier. Install in a balanced Delta or Wye distribution system only.
CAUTION: When the EEPROM error E8 occurs, be sure to confirm the setting values again.
CAUTION: When using normally closed active state settings (C011 to C019) for externally
commanded Forward or Reverse terminals [FW] or [RV], the inverter may start automatically
when the external system is powered OFF or disconnected from the inverter! So, do not use
normally closed active state settings for Forward or Reverse terminals [FW] or [RV] unless
your system design protects against unintended motor operation.
CAUTION: In all the illustrations in this manual, covers and safety devices are occasionally
removed to describe the details. While operating the product, make sure that the covers and
safety devices are placed as they were specified originally and operate it according to the
instruction manual.

Digital Operator
Interface
Components
The SJ300 Series inverters have a detachable keypad (called a digital operator) on the front
panel of the housing. The particular keypad that comes with the inverter depends on the
country or continent corresponding to the particular model number. The standard digital operators occupy just part of the keypad recess in the panel. Therefore, the inverter comes with a
snap-in panel filler plate that mounts below the keypad as shown.
These detachable keypads can be mounted in a NEMA cabinet panel door cut-out, for example.
Threaded metal inserts on the rear of the keypads facilitate this external mounting configuration. A short cable then connects the keypad unit to the connector in the inverter keypad recess.
See Chapter 3 for information on how to install and use these keypads and cables.
Getting Started
Digital Operator OPE-SRE
standard for -LFU and -HFU models
The digital operator / copy unit is optional, and
occupies the entire keypad recess when mounted. It
has the additional capability of reading (uploading)
the parameter settings in the inverter into its memory.
Then you can install the copy unit on another inverter
and write (download) the parameter settings into that
inverter. OEMs will find this unit particularly useful,
as one can use a single copy unit to transfer parameter settings from one inverter to many.
Other digital operator interfaces may be available
from your Hitachi distributor for particular industries
or international markets. Contact your Hitachi
distributor for further details.

Footnotes for the preceding tables and the table that follows:
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: When SLV is selected, please set the carrier frequency higher than 2.1 kHz.
Note 6: At the rated voltage when using a Hitachi standard 3-phase, 4-pole motor (when
selecting sensorless vector control—SLV).
Note 7: The braking torque via capacitive feedback is the average deceleration torque at the
shortest deceleration (stopping from 50/60 Hz as indicated). It is not continuous
regenerative braking torque. The average decel torque varies with motor loss. This
value decreases when operating beyond 50 Hz. If a large regenerative torque is
required, the optional regenerative braking resistor should be used.
Note 8: The frequency command will equal the maximum frequency at 9.8V for input voltage
0 to 10 VDC, or at 19.6 mA for input current 4 to 20 mA. If this characteristic is not
satisfactory for your application, contact your Hitachi sales representative.
Note 9: The storage temperature refers to the short-term temperature during transport.
Note 10: 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 11: NEMA 1 applies up to 22kW. An optional wire-entry conduit box is required for
30kW to 55kW models to meet NEMA 1 rating.

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. 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 SJ300 inverter model number.
