Even if power is off, do not remove the front cover except
for wiring or periodic inspection. You may access the
charged inverter circuits and get an electric shock.
Before starting wiring or inspection, switch off power,
check to make sure that the operation panel indicator is
off, 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)

off to prevent an electric shock.
when the inverter is running, do not
2. Fire Prevention
CAUTION
Install the inverter on a nonflammable wall without holes
(so that nobody can touch the inverter heatsink on the rear
side, etc.). Mounting it to or near flammable material can
cause a fire.
If the inverter has become faulty, switch off the inverter
power. A continuous flow of large current could cause a
fire.
When using a brake resistor, make up a sequence that will
turn off power when an alarm signal is output. Otherwise,
the brake resistor may excessively overheat due to
damage of the brake transistor and such, causing a fire.
Do not connect a resistor directly to the DC terminals P/+
and N/-. This could cause a fire.

(2) Wiring
CAUTION
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 connection orientation of the output cables U, V, W to
the motor will affect the direction of rotation of the motor.
(3) Trial run
CAUTION
Before starting operation, confirm and adjust the
parameters. A failure to do so may cause some machines
to make unexpected motions.
(4) Usage
When you have chosen the retry function, stay away from
the equipment as it will restart suddenly after trip.
Since pressing key may not stop output depending
on the function setting status, provide a circuit and switch
separately to make an emergency stop (power off,
mechanical brake operation for emergency stop, etc).
Make sure that the start signal is off before resetting the
inverter alarm. A failure to do so may restart the motor
suddenly.
The load used should be a three-phase induction motor only.
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
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.
Use a noise filter to reduce the effect of electromagnetic
interference. Otherwise nearby electronic equipment may
be affected.
Take measures to suppress harmonics. Otherwise power
supply harmonics from the inverter may heat/damage the
power factor correction capacitor and generator.
When a 400V class motor is inverter-driven, please use an
insulation-enhanced motor or measures taken to
suppress surge voltages. Surge voltages 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,
reset the required parameters before starting operations.
Each parameter returns to the initial value.
The inverter can be easily set for high-speed operation.
Before changing its setting, fully examine the
performances of the motor and machine.
In addition to the inverter’s holding function, install a
holding device to ensure safety.
Before running an inverter which had been stored for a
long period, always perform inspection and test
operation.
For prevention of damage due to static electricity, touch
nearby metal before touching this product to eliminate
static electricity from your body.

(5) Emergency stop
CAUTION
Provide a safety backup such as an emergency brake
which will prevent the machine and equipment from
hazardous conditions if the inverter fails.
When the breaker on the inverter input side trips, check
for the wiring fault (short circuit), damage to internal parts
of the inverter, etc. Identify the cause of the trip, then
remove the cause and power on the breaker.
When any protective function is activated, take the
appropriate corrective action, then reset the inverter, and
resume operation.
(6) Maintenance, inspection and parts replacement
CAUTION
Do not carry out a megger (insulation resistance) test on
the control circuit of the inverter. It will cause a failure.
(7) Disposal
CAUTION

The breaker must be selected carefully
since an in-rush current flows in the
inverter at power on.
(Refer to page 4)
Magnetic contactor (MC)
Install the magnetic contactor to ensure
safety. Do not use this magnetic contactor
to start and stop the inverter. Doing so will
cause the inverter life to be shorten.
(Refer to page 44)
Reactor (FR-HAL, FR-HEL option)
Reactors (option) must be used when
power harmonics measures are taken,
the power factor is to be improved or the
inverter is installed near a large power
supply system (500kVA or more). The
inverter may be damaged if you do not
use reactors. Select the reactor according
to the model. Remove the jumpers across
terminals P/+ and P1 to connect the DC reactor.

Devices connected to the output
Do not install a power factor correction capacitor,
surge suppressor or capacitor type filter on the output
side of the inverter. When installing a moulded case
circuit breaker on the output side of the inverter,
contact each manufacturer for selection of the
moulded case circuit breaker.
Earth (Ground)
To prevent an electric shock, always earth (ground)
the motor and inverter. For reduction of induction noise
from the power line of the inverter, it is recommended
to wire the earth (ground) cable by returning it to the
earth (ground) terminal of the inverter.
NOTE
The life of the inverter is influenced by surrounding air temperature. The surrounding air temperature should be as low as
possible within the permissible range. This must be noted especially when the inverter is installed in an enclosure.
Wrong wiring might lead to damage of the inverter. The control signal lines must be kept fully away from the main
circuit to protect them from noise. (Refer to page 14)
Do not install a power factor correction capacitor, surge suppressor or capacitor type filter on the inverter output
side. This will cause the inverter to trip or the capacitor and surge suppressor to be damaged. If any of the above
devices are connected, immediately remove them.
Electromagnetic wave interference
The input/output (main circuit) of the inverter includes high frequency components, which may interfere with the
communication devices (such as AM radios) used near the inverter. In this case, install the FR-BIF optional capacitor type
filter (for use in the input side only) or FR-BSF01 or FR-BLF common mode filter to minimize interference.
Refer to the instruction manual of each option and peripheral devices for details of peripheral devices.

Inverter and peripheral devices
1.2.1Peripheral devices
Check the inverter type of the inverter you purchased. Appropriate peripheral devices must be selected according to the
capacity.
Refer to the following list and prepare appropriate peripheral devices:
∗1 Select an MCCB according to the power supply capacity.
Install one MCCB per inverter.
∗2 For installations in the United States or Canada, use the class T type fuse certified by the UL and cUL.
∗3 Magnetic contactor is selected based on the AC-1 class. The electrical durability of magnetic contactor is 500,000 times. When the magnetic contactor is
used for emergency stop during motor driving, the electrical durability is 25 times.
When using the MC for emergency stop during motor driving or using on the motor side during commercial-power supply operation, select the MC with class
AC-3 rated current for the motor rated current.

Installation of the inverter and enclosure design
1.4Installation of the inverter and enclosure design
When an inverter panel is to be designed and manufactured, heat generated by contained equipment, etc., the environment of
an operating place, and others must be fully considered to determine the panel structure, size and equipment layout. The
inverter unit uses many semiconductor devices. To ensure higher reliability and long period of operation, operate the inverter
in the ambient environment that completely satisfies the equipment specifications.
1.4.1Inverter installation environment
As the inverter installation environment should satisfy the standard specifications indicated in the following table, operation in
any place that does not meet these conditions not only deteriorates the performance and life of the inverter, but also causes a
failure. Refer to the following points and take adequate measures.
Environmental standard specifications of inverter

(1) Temperature
The permissible surrounding air temperature of the inverter is between -10 and +50°C
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 so that the surrounding air temperature of the
inverter falls within the specified range.
1) Measures against high temperature
Use a forced ventilation system or similar cooling system. (Refer to page 10)
Install the panel in an air-conditioned electrical 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 panel well.

2
or less
(14°F to 122°F). Always operate the
2) 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.)
3) 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.
(2) Humidity
Normally operate the inverter within the 45 to 90% range of the ambient humidity. Too high humidity will pose problems of
reduced insulation and metal corrosion. On the other hand, too low humidity may produce a spatial electrical breakdown. The
insulation distance specified in JEM1103 "Control Equipment Insulator" is defined as humidity 45 to 85%.
1) Measures against high humidity
Make the panel enclosed, and provide it with a hygroscopic agent.
Take dry air into the enclosure from outside.
Provide a space heater in the enclosure.
2) Measures against low humidity
What is important in fitting or inspection of the unit in this status is to discharge your body (static electricity)
beforehand and keep your body from contact with the parts and patterns, besides blowing air of proper humidity into
the enclosure from outside.
3) 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 1).
Do not power off the inverter. (Keep the start signal of the inverter off.)
8
Installation of the inverter and enclosure design
(3) Dust, dirt, oil mist
Dust and dirt will cause such faults as poor contact of contact points, reduced insulation or reduced cooling effect due to
moisture absorption of accumulated dust and dirt, and in-enclosure temperature rise due to clogged filter. In the 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.
Countermeasures
Place in a totally enclosed enclosure.
Take measures if the in-enclosure temperature rises. (Refer to page 10)
Purge air.
Pump clean air from outside to make the in-enclosure pressure higher than the outside-air pressure.
(4) 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 in Section 3.
(5) 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.
(6) Highland
Use the inverter at the altitude of within 1000m (3280.80 feet). 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.
Maximum 1000m (3280.80feet) above sea level for standard operation. After that derate by 3% for every extra 500m
(1640.40feet) up to 2500m (8202feet) (91%).
(7) Vibration, impact
The vibration resistance of the inverter is up to 5.9m/s2 at 10 to 55Hz frequency and 1mm amplitude. Vibration or impact, if
less than the specified value, applied for a long time may make the mechanism loose or cause poor contact to the connectors.
Especially when impact is imposed repeatedly, caution must be taken as the part pins are likely to break.
Countermeasures
Provide the panel with rubber vibration isolators.
Strengthen the structure to prevent the enclosure from resonance.
Install the enclosure away from sources of vibration.

Installation of the inverter and enclosure design
1.4.2Cooling 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-panel equipment including the inverter.
The cooling systems are classified as follows in terms of the cooling calculation method.
1) Cooling by natural heat dissipation from the enclosure surface (totally enclosed type)
2) Cooling by heat sink (aluminum fin, etc.)
3) Cooling by ventilation (forced ventilation type, pipe ventilation type)
4) Cooling by heat exchanger or cooler (heat pipe, cooler, etc.)

(3) Inverter mounting orientation
Mount the inverter on a wall as specified. Do not mount it horizontally or any other way.
(4) Above 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.

Installation of the inverter and enclosure design
(5) Arrangement of multiple inverters
When multiple inverters are placed in the same
enclosure, generally arrange them horizontally as shown
in the right figure (a). When it is inevitable to arrange
them vertically to minimize space, take such measures as
to provide guides since heat from the bottom inverters
can increase the temperatures in the top inverters,
causing inverter failures.
When mounting multiple inverters, fully take caution not
to make the surrounding air temperature of the inverter
higher than the permissible value by providing ventilation
and increasing the enclosure size.
(6) Arrangement of ventilation fan and inverter
Heat generated in the inverter is blown up from the bottom of
the unit as warm air by the cooling fan. When installing a
ventilation fan for that heat, determine the place of ventilation
fan installation after fully considering an air flow. (Air passes
through areas of low resistance. Make an airway and airflow
plates to expose the inverter to cool air.)

NOTE
To prevent a malfunction caused by noise, separate the signal cables more than 10cm (3.94inches) from the power
cables. Also separate the main circuit wire of the input side and 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 care not to allow chips and other foreign matter to enter the inverter.
The output of the single-phase power input specification is three-phase 200V.

NOTE
Tighten the terminal screw to the specified torque. A screw that has been tightened too loosely can cause a short
circuit or malfunction. A screw that has been tightened too tightly can cause a short circuit or malfunction due to the
unit breakage.
Use crimping terminals with insulation sleeve to wire the power supply and motor.

WIRING
The line voltage drop can be calculated by the following formula:
Use a larger diameter cable when the wiring distance is long or when it is desired to decrease the voltage drop (torque
reduction) in the low speed range.

Main circuit terminal specifications
(2) Earthing (Grounding) precautions
Always earth (ground) the motor and inverter.
1) Purpose of earthing (grounding)
Generally, an electrical apparatus has an earth (ground) terminal, which must be connected to the ground before use.
An electrical circuit is usually insulated by an insulating material and encased. However, it is impossible to manufacture
an insulating material that can shut off a leakage current completely, and actually, a slight current flow into the case.
The purpose of earthing (grounding) the case of an electrical apparatus is to prevent operator from getting an electric
shock from this leakage current when touching it.
To avoid the influence of external noises, this earthing (grounding) is important to audio equipment, sensors, computers
and other apparatuses that handle low-level signals or operate very fast.
2) Earthing (grounding) methods and earthing (grounding) work
As described previously, earthing (grounding) is roughly classified into an electrical shock prevention type and a noise-
affected malfunction prevention type. Therefore, these two types should be discriminated clearly, and the following
work must be done to prevent the leakage current having the inverter's high frequency components from entering the
malfunction prevention type earthing (grounding):
(a)Where possible, use independent earthing (grounding) for the inverter. If independent earthing (grounding) (I) is
impossible, use joint earthing (grounding) (II) where the inverter is connected with the other equipment at an
earthing (grounding) point. Joint earthing (grounding) as in (III) must be avoided as the inverter is connected with the
other equipment by a common earth (ground) cable.
Also a leakage current including many high frequency components flows in the earth (ground) cables of the inverter
and inverter-driven motor. Therefore, they must use the independent earthing (grounding) method and be separated
from the earthing (grounding) of equipment sensitive to the aforementioned noises.
In a tall building, it will be a good policy to use the noise malfunction prevention type earthing (grounding) with steel
frames and carry out electric shock prevention type earthing (grounding) in the independent earthing (grounding)
method.
(b)This inverter must be earthed (grounded). Earthing (Grounding) must conform to the requirements of national and
local safety regulations and electrical codes. (NEC section 250, IEC 536 class 1 and other applicable standards).
Use an neutral-point earthed (grounded) power supply for 400V class inverter in compliance with EN standard.
(c)Use the thickest possible earth (ground) cable. The earth (ground) cable should be of not less than the size indicated
in the table on the previous page 17.
(d)The earthing (grounding) point should be as near as possible to the inverter, and the earth (ground) cable length
should be as short as possible.
(e)Run the earth (ground) cable as far away as possible from the I/O wiring of equipment sensitive to noises and run
them in parallel in the minimum distance.

When driving a 400V class motor by the inverter, surge voltages attributable to the wiring constants may occur at the
motor terminals, deteriorating the insulation of the motor.(Refer to page 83)
NOTE
Especially for long-distance wiring, the inverter may be affected by a charging current caused by the stray
capacitances of the wiring, leading to a malfunction of the overcurrent protective function, fast response current limit
function, or stall prevention function or a malfunction or fault of the equipment connected on the inverter output side.
If malfunction of fast-response current limit function occurs, disable this function. If malfunction of stall prevention
function occurs, increase the stall level. (Refer to page 79 for Pr. 22 Stall prevention operation level and Pr. 156 Stall prevention
operation selection )
Refer to page 148 for details of Pr. 72 PWM frequency selection. Refer to the manual of the option for details of surge
voltage suppression filter (FR-ASF-H/FR-BMF-H).
