Electric Shock Prevention
WARNING
While the inverter power is ON, do not remove the front cover or
the wiring cover. Do not run the inverter with the front cover or
the wiring cover removed. Otherwise you may access the
exposed high voltage terminals or the charging part of the
circuitry and get an electric shock.
Even if power is OFF, do not remove the front cover except for
wiring or periodic inspection. You may accidentally touch the
charged inverter circuits and get an electric shock.
Before wiring or inspection, power lamp must be switched OFF.
Any person who is involved in wiring or inspection shall wait for
at least 10 minutes after the power supply has been switched
OFF and check that there are no residual voltage using a tester
or the like. The capacitor is charged with high voltage for some
time after power OFF, and it is dangerous.
This inverter must be earthed (grounded). Earthing (grounding)
must conform to the requirements of national and local safety
regulations and electrical code (NEC section 250, IEC 536 class
1 and other applicable standards).
Any person who is involved in wiring or inspection of this
equipment shall be fully competent to do the work.
The inverter must be installed before wiring. Otherwise you may
get an electric shock or be injured.
Setting dial and key operations must be performed with dry
hands to prevent an electric shock. Otherwise you may get an
electric shock.
Do not subject the cables to scratches, excessive stress, heavy
loads or pinching. Otherwise you may get an electric shock.
Do not change the cooling fan while power is ON. It is dangerous
to change the cooling fan while power is ON.
Do not touch the printed circuit board or handle the cables with
wet hands. Otherwise you may get an electric shock.
A PM motor is a synchronous motor with high-performance
magnets embedded in the rotor. Motor terminals holds highvoltage while the motor is running even after the inverter power
is turned OFF. Before wiring or inspection, the motor must be
confirmed to be stopped. In an application, such as fan and
blower, where the motor is driven by the load, a low-voltage
manual motor starter must be connected at the inverter's output
side, and wiring and inspection must be performed while the
motor starter is open. Otherwise you may get an electric shock.
Fire Prevention
CAUTION
Inverter must be installed on a nonflammable wall without holes
(so that nobody touches the inverter heatsink on the rear side,
etc.). Mounting it to or near flammable material may cause a fire.
If the inverter has become faulty, the inverter power must be
switched OFF. A continuous flow of large current may cause a
fire.
Be sure to perform daily and periodic inspections as specified in
the Instruction Manual. If a product is used without any
inspection, a burst, breakage, or a fire may occur.
Injury Prevention
CAUTION
The voltage applied to each terminal must be the ones specified
in the Instruction Manual. Otherwise burst, damage, etc. may
occur.
The cables must be connected to the correct terminals.
Otherwise burst, damage, etc. may occur.
The polarity (+ and -) must be correct. Otherwise burst, damage,
etc. may occur.
While power is ON or for some time after power-OFF, do not
touch the inverter as it will be extremely hot. Touching these
devices may cause a burn.
Additional Instructions
The following instructions must be also followed. If the product
is handled incorrectly, it may cause unexpected fault, an injury,
or an electric shock.
CAUTION
Transportation and Mounting
Any person who is opening a package using a sharp object,
such as a knife and cutter, must wear gloves to prevent injuries
caused by the edge of the sharp object.
The product must be transported in correct method that
corresponds to the weight. Failure to do so may lead to injuries.
Do not stand or rest heavy objects on the product.
Do not stack the boxes containing inverters higher than the
number recommended.
When carrying the inverter, do not hold it by the front cover; it
may fall off or fail.
During installation, caution must be taken not to drop the inverter
as doing so may cause injuries.
The product must be installed on the surface that withstands the
weight of the inverter.
Do not install the product on a hot surface.
The mounting orientation of the inverter must be correct.
The inverter must be installed on a strong surface securely with
screws so that it will not drop.
Do not install or operate the inverter if it is damaged or has parts
missing.
Foreign conductive objects must be prevented from entering the
inverter. That includes screws and metal fragments or other
flammable substance such as oil.
As the inverter is a precision instrument, do not drop or subject it
to impact.
The surrounding air temperature for LD models must be
between -10 and +50°C (non-freezing). The surrounding air
temperature for SLD (initial setting) models must be between -10
and +40°C (non-freezing). Otherwise the inverter may be
damaged.
The ambient humidity must be 95%RH or less (non-
condensing). Otherwise the inverter may be damaged. (Refer to
page 17 for details.)
Safety Instructions

CAUTION
Transportation and Mounting
The storage temperature (applicable for a short time, e.g. during
transit) must be between -20 and +65°C. Otherwise the inverter
may be damaged.
The inverter must be used indoors (without corrosive gas,
flammable gas, oil mist, dust and dirt etc.) Otherwise the inverter
may be damaged.
The inverter must be used at an altitude of 2500 m or less above
sea level, with 2.9 m/s
(directions of X, Y, Z axes). Otherwise the inverter may be
damaged. (Refer to page 17 for details.)
If halogen-based materials (fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine,
etc.) infiltrate into a Mitsubishi product, the product will be
damaged. Halogen-based materials are often included in
fumigant, which is used to sterilize or disinfest wooden
packages. When packaging, prevent residual fumigant
components from being infiltrated into Mitsubishi products, or
use an alternative sterilization or disinfection method (heat
disinfection, etc.) for packaging. Sterilization of disinfection of
wooden package should also be performed before packaging
the product.
Wiring
Do not install a power factor correction capacitor or surge
suppressor/capacitor type filter on the inverter output side.
These devices on the inverter output side may be overheated or
burn out.
The output side terminals (terminals U, V, and W) must be
connected correctly. Otherwise the motor will rotate inversely.
PM motor terminals (U, V, W) hold high-voltage while the PM
motor is running even after the power is turned OFF. Before
wiring, the PM motor must be confirmed to be stopped.
Otherwise you may get an electric shock.
Never connect a PM motor to the commercial power supply.
Applying the commercial power supply to input terminals (U,V,
W) of a PM motor will burn the PM motor. The PM motor must
be connected with the output terminals (U, V, W) of the inverter.
Trial run
Before starting operation, each parameter must be confirmed
and adjusted. A failure to do so may cause some machines to
make unexpected motions.
2
or less vibration at 10 to 55 Hz
WARNING
Usage
Everyone must stay away from the equipment when the retry
function is set as it will restart suddenly after a trip.
Since pressing the STOP/RESET key may not stop output
depending on the function setting status, separate circuit and
switch that make an emergency stop (power OFF, mechanical
brake operation for emergency stop, etc.) must be provided.
OFF status of the start signal must be confirmed before resetting
the inverter fault. Resetting inverter fault with the start signal ON
restarts the motor suddenly.
Do not use a PM motor for an application where the PM motor is
driven by its load and runs at a speed higher than the maximum
motor speed.
Use this inverter only with three-phase induction motors or with a
PM motor. Connection of any other electrical equipment to the
inverter output may damage the equipment.
Do not modify the equipment.
Do not perform parts removal which is not instructed in this
manual. Doing so may lead to fault or damage of the product.
CAUTION
Usage
The electronic thermal relay function does not guarantee
protection of the motor from overheating. It is recommended to
install both an external thermal and PTC thermistor for overheat
protection.
Do not use a magnetic contactor on the inverter input for
frequent starting/stopping of the inverter. Otherwise the life of the
inverter decreases.
The effect of electromagnetic interference must be reduced by
using a noise filter or by other means. Otherwise nearby
electronic equipment may be affected.
Appropriate measures must be taken to suppress harmonics.
Otherwise power supply harmonics from the inverter may heat/
damage the power factor correction capacitor and generator.
When driving a 600V class motor by the inverter, the motor must
be an insulation-enhanced motor or measures must be taken to
suppress surge voltage. Surge voltage attributable to the wiring
constants may occur at the motor terminals, deteriorating the
insulation of the motor.
When parameter clear or all parameter clear is performed, the
required parameters must be set again before starting
operations because all parameters return to their initial values.
The inverter can be easily set for high-speed operation. Before
changing its setting, the performances of the motor and machine
must be fully examined.
Stop status cannot be hold by the inverter's brake function. In
addition to the inverter’s brake function, a holding device must
be installed to ensure safety.
Before running an inverter which had been stored for a long
period, inspection and test operation must be performed.
Static electricity in your body must be discharged beforeyou
touch the product.
Only one PM motor can be connected to an inverter.
A PM motor must be used under PM motor control. Do not use a
synchronous motor, induction motor, or synchronous induction
motor.
Do not connect a PM motor in the induction motor control
settings (initial settings). Do not use an induction motor in the
PM motor control settings. It will cause a failure.
In the system with a PM motor, the inverter power must be
turned ON before closing the contacts of the contactor at the
output side.
In order to protect the inverter and the system against
unauthorized access by external systems via network, take
security measures including firewall settings.
Depending on the network environment, the inverter may not
operate as intended due to delays or disconnection in
communication. Carefully consider the conditions and safety for
the inverter on site.
Emergency stop
A safety backup such as an emergency brake must be provided
to prevent hazardous conditions to the machine and equipment
in case of inverter failure.
When the breaker on the inverter input side trips, the wiring must
be checked for fault (short circuit), and internalparts of the
inverter for a damage, etc. The cause of the trip must be
identified and removed before turning ON the power of the
breaker.
When a protective function activates, take an appropriate
corrective action, then reset the inverter, and resume the
operation.
Maintenance, inspection and parts replacement
Do not carry out a megger (insulation resistance) test on the
control circuit of the inverter. It will cause a failure.
Disposal
The inverter must be treated as industrial waste.

The permissible surrounding air temperature of the inverter is between -10°C and +40°C (-10°C and +50°C at the LD ratings).
Always operate the inverter within this temperature range. Operation outside this range will considerably shorten the service
lives of the semiconductors, parts, capacitors and others. Take the following measures to keep the surrounding air
temperature of the inverter within the specified range.
(a) Measures against high temperature
• Use a forced ventilation system or similar cooling system. (Refer to page 19.)
• Install the enclosure in an air-conditioned electric chamber.
• Block direct sunlight.
• Provide a shield or similar plate to avoid direct exposure to the radiated heat and wind of a heat source.
• Ventilate the area around the enclosure well.
(b) Measures against low temperature
• Provide a space heater in the enclosure.
• Do not power OFF the inverter. (Keep the start signal of the inverter OFF.)
(c) Sudden temperature changes
• Select an installation place where temperature does not change suddenly.
• Avoid installing the inverter near the air outlet of an air conditioner.
• If temperature changes are caused by opening/closing of a door, install the inverter away from the door.

INSTALLATION AND WIRING

Installation of the inverter and enclosure design
Humidity
Operate the inverter within the ambient air humidity of usually 45 to 95%. Too high humidity will pose problems of reduced
insulation and metal corrosion. On the other hand, too low humidity may cause a spatial electrical breakdown. The insulation
distance defined in JEM1103 "Control Equipment Insulator" is humidity of 45 to 85%.
(a) Measures against high humidity
• Make the enclosure enclosed, and provide it with a hygroscopic agent.
• Provide dry air into the enclosure from outside.
• Provide a space heater in the enclosure.
(b) Measures against low humidity
Air with proper humidity can be blown into the enclosure from outside. Also when installing or inspecting the unit, discharge
your body (static electricity) beforehand, and keep your body away from the parts and patterns.
(c) Measures against condensation
Condensation may occur if frequent operation stops change the in-enclosure temperature suddenly or if the outside air
temperature changes suddenly.
Condensation causes such faults as reduced insulation and corrosion.
• Take the measures against high humidity in (a).
• Do not power OFF the inverter. (Keep the start signal of the inverter OFF.)
Dust, dirt, oil mist
Dust and dirt will cause such faults as poor contacts, reduced insulation and cooling effect due to the moisture-absorbed
accumulated dust and dirt, and in-enclosure temperature rise due to a clogged filter. In an atmosphere where conductive
powder floats, dust and dirt will cause such faults as malfunction, deteriorated insulation and short circuit in a short time.
Since oil mist will cause similar conditions, it is necessary to take adequate measures.
Countermeasure
• Place the inverter in a totally enclosed enclosure.
Take measures if the in-enclosure temperature rises. (Refer to page 19.)
• Purge air.
Pump clean air from outside to make the in-enclosure air pressure higher than the outside air pressure.
Corrosive gas, salt damage
If the inverter is exposed to corrosive gas or to salt near a beach, the printed board patterns and parts will corrode or the
relays and switches will result in poor contact.
In such places, take the measures given above.
Explosive, flammable gases
As the inverter is non-explosion proof, it must be contained in an explosion-proof enclosure. In places where explosion may
be caused by explosive gas, dust or dirt, an enclosure cannot be used unless it structurally complies with the guidelines and
has passed the specified tests. This makes the enclosure itself expensive (including the test charges). The best way is to
avoid installation in such places and install the inverter in a non-hazardous place.
High altitude
Use the inverter at an altitude of within 1000 m. For use at an altitude above 1,000 m (up to 2,500 m), derate the rated current
3% per 500 m.
If it is used at a higher place, it is likely that thin air will reduce the cooling effect and low air pressure will deteriorate dielectric
strength.

Vibration, impact
The vibration resistance of the inverter is up to 2.9 m/s2 at 10 to 55 Hz frequency and 1 mm amplitude for the directions of X,
Y, Z axes. Applying vibration and impacts for a long time may loosen the structures and cause poor contacts of connectors,
even if those vibration and impacts are within the specified values.
Especially when impacts are applied repeatedly, caution must be taken because such impacts may break the installation feet.
Countermeasure
• Provide the enclosure with rubber vibration isolators.
• Strengthen the structure to prevent the enclosure from resonance.
• Install the enclosure away from the sources of the vibration.
2.3.2Cooling system types for inverter enclosure
From the enclosure that contains the inverter, the heat of the inverter and other equipment (transformers, lamps, resistors,
etc.) and the incoming heat such as direct sunlight must be dissipated to keep the in-enclosure temperature lower than the
permissible temperatures of the in-enclosure equipment including the inverter.
The cooling systems are classified as follows in terms of the cooling calculation method.
(a) Cooling by natural heat dissipation from the enclosure surface (totally enclosed type)
(b) Cooling by heatsink (aluminum fin, etc.)
(c) Cooling by ventilation (forced ventilation type, pipe ventilation type)
(d) Cooling by heat exchanger or cooler (heat pipe, cooler, etc.)

This system is low in cost and generally used, but the
enclosure size increases as the inverter capacity increases.
This system is for relatively small capacities.
Being a totally enclosed type, this system is the most
appropriate for hostile environment having dust, dirt, oil mist,
etc. The enclosure size increases depending on the inverter
capacity.
This system has restrictions on the heatsink mounting position
and area. This system is for relatively small capacities.
This system is for general indoor installation. This is
appropriate for enclosure downsizing and cost reduction, and
often used.

2.3.3Inverter installation
Inverter placement
• Install the inverter on a strong surface securely with screws.
• Leave enough clearances and take cooling measures.
• Avoid places where the inverter is subjected to direct sunlight, high temperature and high humidity.
• Install the inverter on a nonflammable wall surface.
• When encasing multiple inverters in an enclosure, install them in parallel as a cooling measure.
• For heat dissipation and maintenance, keep clearance between the inverter and the other devices or enclosure surface.
The clearance below the inverter is required as a wiring space, and the clearance above the inverter is required as a heat
dissipation space.
Installation orientation of the inverter
Install the inverter on a wall as specified. Do not mount it horizontally or in any other way.
Above the inverter
Heat is blown up from inside the inverter by the small fan built in the unit. Any equipment placed above the inverter should be
heat resistant.
20
For replacing the cooling fan, 30 cm or more of space is necessary in front of the inverter. Refer to page 6 8 for fan replacement.

Encasing multiple inverters and converter units
When multiple inverters and converter units are placed in the
same enclosure, generally arrange them horizontally as shown
in the figure on the right.
Do not place multiple products vertically. The exhaust air
temperature of the inverter and the converter unit may be
increased.
When mounting multiple inverters and converter units, fully take
caution not to make the surrounding air temperature of the
inverter and the converter unit higher than the permissible value
by providing ventilation and increasing the enclosure size.

Terminals R1/L11 and S1/L21 are connected to terminals P/+ and N/- with a jumper respectively. When using separate power supply for the
control circuit, remove the jumpers from R1/L11 and S1/L21.
The function of these terminals can be changed with the input terminal assignment (Pr.178 to Pr.189).
Terminal JOG is also used as the pulse train input terminal. Use Pr.291 to choose JOG or pulse.
The X10 signal (NC contact input specification) is assigned to the terminal MRS in the initial setting. Set Pr.599 = "0" to change the input
specification of the X10 signal to NO contact.
No function is assigned in the initial setting. Use Pr.186 for function assignment.
Terminal input specifications can be changed by analog input specification switchover (Pr.73, Pr.267). To input a voltage (0 to 5 V/0 to 10 V), set
the voltage/current input switch OFF. To input a current (4 to 20 mA), set the voltage/current input switch ON. Terminals 10 and 2 are also used
as a PTC input terminal. (Pr.561)
It is recommended to use 2 W 1 k when the frequency setting signal is changed frequently.
The function of these terminals can be changed with the output terminal assignment (Pr.195, Pr.196).
The function of these terminals can be changed with the output terminal assignment (Pr.190 to Pr.194).
No function is assigned in the initial setting. Use Pr.192 for function assignment.
The option connector 2 cannot be used because the Ethernet board is installed in the initial status. The Ethernet board must be removed to
install a plug-in option to the option connector 2. (However, Ethernet communication is disabled in that case.)
NOTE
• To prevent a malfunction due to noise, keep the signal cables 10 cm or more away from the power cables. Also, separate the
main circuit cables at the input side from the main circuit cables at the output side.
• After wiring, wire offcuts must not be left in the inverter.
Wire offcuts can cause an alarm, failure or malfunction. Always keep the inverter clean.
When drilling mounting holes in an enclosure etc., take caution not to allow chips and other foreign matter to enter the
inverter.
• Set the voltage/current input switch correctly. Incorrect setting may cause a fault, failure or malfunction.
• Terminals S1, S2, SIC, So (SO), and SOC are for manufacturer setting. Do not remove the shorting wires across terminals S1
and PC, terminals S2 and PC, and terminals SIC and SD. When the shorting wires are removed, the inverter does not
operate.
Connection between the converter unit and the inverter
Perform wiring so that the commands sent from the converter unit are transmitted to the inverter without fail. Incorrect
connection may damage the converter unit and the inverter.
For the wiring length, refer to the table below.
Total wiring length
For the cable gauge of the cable across the main circuit terminals P/+ and N/- (P and P, N and N), refer to page 28.
Do not install an MCCB across terminals P/+ and N/- (across terminals P and P/+ or across N and N/-). Connecting the opposite polarity of
terminals N/- and P/+ will damage the inverter.
For the terminal used for the X10 signal input, set "10" in any of Pr.178 to Pr.189 (Input terminal function selection) to assign the function.
(The X10 signal is assigned to terminal MRS in the initial setting.)
For the X10 signal, NC contact input specification is selected in the initial setting. Set Pr.599 = "0" to change the input specification to NO
contact.
For the terminal used for the X11 signal input, set "11" in any of Pr.178 to Pr.189 (Input terminal function selection) to assign the function. For
RS-485 or any other communication where the start command is only transmitted once, use the X11 signal to save the operation mode at the
time of an instantaneous power failure.
Always connect terminal RDA of the converter unit and terminal MRS (X10) of the inverter, and terminal SE of the converter unit and terminal SD
(sink logic) of the inverter. Not connecting these terminals may damage the converter unit.
