JAGUAR VXSM

Trip-free operation

The much improved current limiting function
(Automatic deceleration, stall prevention) provides
continuous stable operation even for an impact load.

The above graph shows an example of torque characteristics when combining
the Jaguar VXSM (in torque vector mode) with a standard three-phase, 4 pole,
motor. Continuous operation torque is for limits of allowable load torque when
using the motor within the allowable temperature range and is not for motor
output torque.
The motor output torque is shown by the short-time operation torque.

Reduced motor wow at low speed

VXSM’s unique On-Delay compensation method reduces
motor wow at low speed to approximately half of that of
conventional inverters.

a hitch.)

The inverter output frequency is controlled according to the load torque to keep motor speed constant. When the value is
set at "0.00" and "Torque-vector" is set at "active", the compensation value automatically selects a standard motor.

The following diagram is for reference only. For detailed wiring diagrams, refer to the relevant instruction manual

NOTES:
*1) When connecting an optional DC Reactor, remove the

jumper short bar that connects the terminals [P1]
and [P+].

*2) Keep the control circuit wires at least 100mm away from

the main circuit wires and put them in separate ducts to
prevent noise and resultant malfunctions. When control
wiring crosses the main wiring, ensure that they cross
each other at right angles.

*3) For the wiring of the control circuit , use shielded or

twisted wires with the shortest possible length.
(When using shielded wires, connect one end of the
shields to the inverter ground terminal and leave the other
end free.)

*4) If there is a magnetic contactor or a solenoid close to the

inverter, connect a surge suppresser to the coil in parallel
connection. Keep the wiring length to a minimum.

*5) Ensure motor cable is shielded, and both ends are

securely earthed using short wire links with minimum
c.s.a the same as the motor / supply cable, or use

Function

This is a special filter which complies with the European EMC (Emission) Directive.
This filter may be used together with a ferrite core, if required.

Note: Other prerequisites must be fulfilled to ensure compliance with

EMC Directives.

Refer to operation manual for details.

Connected to the output circuit of inverters under low-noise operation with carrier
frequency from 8 to 15kHz, this filter has the following functions:
q Suppressing fluctuation of motor terminal voltage.
Protects the motor insulation from being damaged by surge voltage. (400V

series)
w Suppressing leakage current from output side wiring.
Reduces the leakage current caused when several motors are operated in

parallel or connected with long wiring.

* Total wiring length should be less than 400m.

e Suppressing radial noise or inductive noise from output side wiring.
Effective noise suppression device for long wiring applications such as plant.

[Use the DCR to normalize the power supply in the following cases.]
q The power transformer capacity is 500kVA or over and exceeds the inverter

rated capacity by 10 times.
w The inverter and a thyristor converter are connected with the same transformer.
* Check if the thyristor converter uses a commutation reactor. If not, AC reactor

must be connected to the power supply side.
e Overvoltage trip occurs due to open/close of the phase-advancing capacitor for

the power supply lines.
r The voltage unbalance exceeds 2%.

Voltage unbalance (%) =

Driving a 3 phase standard motor

When driving a standard motor with an inverter, damage
may occur in the insulation of the motor. Use the output
circuit filter (OFL) if necessary after confirmation with
the motor manufacturer. The use of a quality Motor does
not require the output circuit filter because of its
reinforced insulation.

Torque characteristics and temperature rise

When the inverter is used to operate a standard motor, the
temperature rises a little higher than during operation by a
commercial power supply. The cooling effect decreases in
the low-speed range, reducing the allowable output torque.
(If a constant torque is required in the low-speed range,
use inverter rated motor or a motor equipped with a
separately excited ventilating fan.)

Vibration

Use of an inverter does not increase vibration of a standard
motor, but when the motor is mounted to a machine,
resonance may be caused by the natural frequencies
including the natural frequency of the machine system.

• IMO recommend that you use rubber coupling or anti­vibration rubber.

• We also recommend that you use the inverter jump
frequency control function to avoid resonance point in the
motor operation.
Note that operation of a 2-pole motor at 60Hz or over may
cause abnormal vibration.

Noise

When an inverter drives a standard motor, the motor noise
level increases compared with driven by a commercial
power supply. To reduce noise, set the inverter carrier
frequency at a high level

1

. High-speed operation at 60Hz or

over can result in more noise.

Installation location

Use the inverter in an ambient temperature range between

-10 to 50˚C.

• When driving an inverter of 22kW or smaller at a place in
a temperature of 40˚C or over, remove the ventilation
covers. Install an inverter on non-flammable material. The
inverter and braking resistor surfaces become hot under
certain operating conditions.

Geared motors

When the power transmission mechanism uses an oil­lubricated gearbox or speed changer/reducer, continuous
motor operation at low speed may cause poor lubrication.

Synchronous motors

It is necessary to use software suitable for the motor type.
Contact IMO for details.

Single-phase motors

Single-phase motors are not suitable for inverter-driven
variable speed operation. Use three-phase motors.

• Even if a single-phase power supply is available, use a
three-phase motor, because the inverter provides three­phase output.

Measures against surge current

If OU trip occurs while the inverter is stopped or operated
under a light load, it is assumed that the surge current is
generated by open/close of the phase-advancing capacitor
in the power system.

• Connect a DC reactor to the inverter.

Megger test

When checking insulation resistance of the inverter, use a
500V megger and follow the instructions described in the
instruction manual.

Control circuit wiring length

When conducting a remote control, limit the wiring length
between the inverter and operator box to 20m or less and
use twisted shielded cable.

Wiring length between inverter and motor

If long wiring is used between the inverter and the motor,
the inverter will overheat or trip because of overcurrent
(under the influence of high-frequency current flowing into
the floating capacity) in the wires connected to the phases.
Ensure that the wiring is shorter than 50m for models

3.7kW or smaller, shorter than 100m for 5.5kW or larger. If
these lengths must be exceeded, lower the carrier
frequency or mount an output circuit filter (OFL). When
wiring is longer than 50m, and Dynamic torque-vector
control or vector with PG is selected, execute off-line
auto-tuning.

Wiring size

Select a cable with a sufficient capacity by referring to the
current value or recommended wire size.

Earthing

Securely ground the inverter using the earth terminal.

Driving standard motor

Select an inverter from the capacity range of nominal
applied motors shown in the inverter standard
specifications table. When large starting torque is required
or acceleration or deceleration is required in a short time,
select an inverter with a capacity one class greater than the
standard.

Driving special motor

Select an inverter that meets the following condition:
Inverter rated current > Motor rated current.

Installing an MCCB

Install a MCCB or earth-leakage circuit breaker in the
primary circuit of the inverter to protect wires.

Magnetic contactor in the secondary circuit

If a magnetic contactor is mounted in the secondary circuit
for switching to the motor operation by commercial power
supply or for any other purposes, ensure that the inverter
and the motor are stopped before you turn on or off the
contactor. For switching operation from/to commercial
power supply, use of newly developed “Line/inver ter
changeover operation” function using terminals such as
SW88, SW52-2, SW52-1, SW50, is recommended.

Magnetic contactor in the primary circuit

Do not open or close the magnetic contactor in the primary
circuit more than once an hour. If frequent starts or stops
are required during motor operation, send FWD or REV
signals to the control terminal.

Protecting the motor

When you drive a motor with an inverter, the motor can be
protected with an electronic thermal relay function of the
inverter. In addition to the operation level, set the motor
type (standard motor, inverter motor). For high-speed
motors or water-cooled motors, set a small value as the
thermal time constant and protect the motor in
combination with the “cooling system OFF” signal. When
driving several motors with an inverter, connect a thermal
relay to each motor and turn off the inverter’s electronic
thermal relay function. If you connect the motor thermal
relay to the motor with a long cable, high-frequency
current may flow into the wiring floating capacity. This may
cause the relay to trip at a current lower than the set value
for the thermal relay. If this happens, lower the car rier
frequency or use the output circuit filter (OFL).

Power-factor correcting capacitor

Do not mount the power-factor correcting capacitor in the
inverter primary circuit. (Use the DC reactor to improve
the inverter power factor.) Do not use the power-factor
correcting capacitor in the inverter secondary circuit.
Overcurrent trip will occur, disabling motor operation.

Reducing noise

Use of filter and shielded wires are typical measures
against noise that meets EMC Directives. For details, refer
to the operation procedure manual.

Explosion-proof motors

When driving an explosion-proof motor with an inverter,
use a combination of a motor and an inverter that has been
approved in advance. Such approved products are available
in our special product series. Contact IMO for details.

Submersible motors and pumps

These motors have a larger rated current than standard
motors. Select the inverter capacity so that these motors
can run within the inverter rated current. These motors
differ from standard motors in thermal characteristics. Set
a small value according to the thermal time constant of
motor for setting electronic thermal relay function.

Brake motors

For motors with parallel-connection brakes, obtain the
brake power from the primary circuit (commercial power
supply). If you connect the brake power to the inverter
power output circuit by mistake, problems may occur. Do
not use inverters for driving motors equipped with series­connection brakes.
