Incorrect handling may cause hazardous conditions, resulting in death or severe injury.

Incorrect handling may cause hazardous conditions, resulting in medium or slight injury, or may cause only material damage.

1. Electric Shock Prevention

WARNING

z While power is ON or when the inverter is running, do not

open the front cover. Otherwise you may get an electric shock.

z Do not run the inverter with the front cover or wiring cover

removed. Otherwise you may access the exposed highvoltage terminals or the charging part of the circuitry and get an electric shock.

z 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.

z Before wiring or inspection, power must be switched OFF.

To confirm that, LED indication of the operation panel must be checked. (It must be 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). A neutral-point earthed (grounded) power supply for 400V class inverter in compliance with EN standard must be used.

z Any person who is involved in wiring or inspection of this

equipment shall be fully competent to do the work.

z The inverter must be installed before wiring. Otherwise

you may get an electric shock or be injured.

z Setting dial and key operations must be performed with

dry hands to prevent an electric shock.

z Do not subject the cables to scratches, excessive stress,

heavy loads or pinching. Otherwise you may get an electric shock.

z Do not change the cooling fan while power is ON. It is

dangerous to change the cooling fan while power is ON.

z Do not touch the printed circuit board or handle the

cables with wet hands. Otherwise you may get an electric shock.

z When measuring the main circuit capacitor capacity, the

DC voltage is applied to the motor for 1s at powering OFF. Never touch the motor terminal, etc. right after powering OFF to prevent an electric shock.

z 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 can cause a fire.

z If the inverter has become faulty, the inverter power must

be switched OFF. A continuous flow of large current could cause a fire.

z When using a brake resistor, a sequence that will turn OFF

power when a fault signal is output must be configured. Otherwise the brake resistor may overheat due to damage of the brake transistor and possibly cause a fire.

z Do not connect a resistor directly to the DC terminals P/+

and N/-. Doing so could cause a fire.

3.Injury Prevention

z The voltage applied to each terminal must be the ones

specified in the Instruction Manual. Otherwise burst, damage, etc. may occur.

z The cables must be connected to the correct terminals.

Otherwise burst, damage, etc. may occur.

z Polarity must be correct. Otherwise burst, damage, etc.

may occur.

z While power is ON or for some time after power-OFF, do

not touch the inverter as they will be extremely hot. Doing so can cause burns.

4. Additional Instructions

Also the following points must be noted to prevent an

accidental failure, injury, electric shock, etc.

(1) Transportation and Mounting

z The product must be transported in correct method that

corresponds to the weight. Failure to do so may lead to injuries.

z Do not stack the boxes containing inverters higher than

the number recommended.

z The product must be installed to the position where

withstands the weight of the product according to the information in the Instruction Manual.

z Do not install or operate the inverter if it is damaged or

has parts missing.

z When carrying the inverter, do not hold it by the front

cover or setting dial; it may fall off or fail.

z Do not stand or rest heavy objects on the product. z The inverter mounting orientation must be correct. z Foreign conductive objects must be prevented from

entering the inverter. That includes screws and metal fragments or other flammable substance such as oil.

z As the inverter is a precision instrument, do not drop or

subject it to impact.

z The inverter must be used under the following

environment. Otherwise the inverter may be damaged.

Surrounding air temperature

Ambient humidity

Storage temperature

Atmosphere

CAUTION

or less at 10 to 55Hz (directions of X, Y, Z

A-1

(2) Wiring

CAUTION

z 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.

z The connection orientation of the output cables U, V, W to

the motor affects the rotation direction of the motor.

(3) Trial run

CAUTION

z Before starting operation, each parameter must be

confirmed and adjusted. A failure to do so may cause some machines to make unexpected motions.

(4) Usage

WARNING

z Any person must stay away from the equipment when the

retry function is set as it will restart suddenly after trip.

z Since pressing 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.

z OFF status of the start signal must be confirmed before

resetting the inverter fault. Resetting inverter alarm with the start signal ON restarts the motor suddenly.

The inverter must be used for three-phase induction motors. Connection of any other electrical equipment to the inverter output may damage the equipment.

z Do not modify the equipment. z

Do not perform parts removal which is not instructed in this manual. Doing so may lead to fault or damage of the product.

(5) Emergency stop

CAUTION

z A safety backup such as an emergency brake must be

provided to prevent hazardous condition to the machine and equipment in case of inverter failure.

z When the breaker on the inverter input side trips, the

wiring must be checked for fault (short circuit), and internal parts 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.

z When any protective function is activated, appropriate

corrective action must be taken, and the inverter must be reset before resuming operation.

(6) Maintenance, inspection and parts replacement

CAUTION

z Do not carry out a megger (insulation resistance) test on

the control circuit of the inverter. It will cause a failure.

(7) Disposal

CAUTION

z The inverter must be treated as industrial waste.

General instruction

Many of the diagrams and drawings in this Instruction Manual show the inverter without a cover or partially open for explanation. Never operate the inverter in this manner. The cover must be always reinstalled and the instruction in this Instruction Manual must be followed when operating the inverter.

CAUTION

z 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.

z Do not use a magnetic contactor on the inverter input for

frequent starting/stopping of the inverter. Otherwise the life of the inverter decreases.

z The effect of electromagnetic interference must be

reduced by using a noise filter or by other means. Otherwise nearby electronic equipment may be affected.

z 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.

z When driving a 400V 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.

z When parameter clear or all parameter clear is performed,

the required parameters must be set again before starting operations because all parameters return to the initial value.

z 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.

z 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.

z Before running an inverter which had been stored for a long

period, inspection and test operation must be performed.

z For prevention of damage due to static electricity, nearby

metal must be touched before touching this product to eliminate static electricity from your body.

1.2 Inverter and peripheral devices

AC power supply

Use within the permissible power supply specifications of the inverter. To ensure safety, use a moulded case circuit breaker,

AC reactor (FR -HAL)

earth leakage circuit breaker or magnetic contactor to switch power ON/OFF.

(Refer to page 326)

Moulded case circuit breaker (MCCB) or earth leakage circuit breaker (ELB), fuse

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 50)

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.

DC reactor (FR-HEL) *

EMC filter (ferrite core) *

(FR-BSF01, FR-BLF)

Install

an EMC filter (ferrite core)

to reduce the electromagnetic noise generated from the inverter. Effective in the range from about 1MHz to 10MHz. When more wires are passed through, a more effective result can be obtained. A wire should be wound four turns or more.

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. (Refer

to page 8)

y 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 options among the capacitor type EMC filter FR-BIF (for use in the input side only), the ferrite core type EMC filter FR-BSF01/FR-BLF, filterpack, and EMC filter to minimize the interference. (Refer to page 44).

 Refer to the instruction manual of each option and peripheral devices for details of peripheral devices.

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 earthing cable by returning it to the earth (ground) terminal of the inverter.

Installation of the inverter and enclosure design

1.4 Installation of the inverter and enclosure design

When an inverter enclosure 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 enclosure 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.

1.4.1 Inverter 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

Item Description

Surrounding air

temperature

Ambient humidity 90%RH or less (non-condensing)

Atmosphere Free from corrosive and explosive gases, free from dust and dirt

Maximum altitude 1,000m or less

Vibration

-10 to +50

5.9m/s

(1) Temperature

The permissible surrounding air temperature of the inverter is between -10 and +50°C structure feature). 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 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.

°C (non-freezing) (-10 to +40°C

or less at 10 to 55Hz (directions of X, Y, Z axes)

for totally-enclosed structure feature)

(-10 to +40°C

for totally-enclosed

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 panel from outside.

3) Measures against condensation Condensation may occur if frequent operation stops change the in-panel 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.)

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-panel 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-panel 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. 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.

(7) Vibration, impact

The vibration resistance of the inverter is up to 5.9m/s2 at 10 to 55Hz frequency and 1mm amplitude for the directions of X, Y,

Z axes. 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 panel from resonance.

 Install the panel away from sources of vibration.

1.4.2 Cooling system types for inverter panel

From the panel 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-panel 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.

Installation of the inverter and enclosure design

(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.

(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 panel size.

Guide

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.)

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)If possible, use (l) independent earthing (grounding) in figure below for the inverter. If independent earthing

(grounding) is not available, use (ll) joint earthing (grounding) in the figure below which the inverter is connected with the other equipment at an earthing (grounding) point. The (lll) common earthing (grounding) as in the figure below, which inverter shares a common earthing cable with the other equipment, must be avoided. A leakage current including many high frequency components flows in the earthing cables of the inverter and inverter-driven motor. Therefore, use the independent earthing (grounding) and separated the earthing (grounding) cable of the inverter from equipments sensitive to EMI. In a high building, it may be effective to use the EMI prevention type earthing (grounding) connecting to an iron structure frame, and electric shock prevention type earthing (grounding) with the independent earthing (grounding) together.

(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 earthing cable. The earthing cable should be of not less than the size indicated in the table

on the previous page 18.

(d)The grounding point should be as near as possible to the inverter, and the ground wire length should be as short as

possible.

(e)Run the earthing 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 96)

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 92 for Pr. 22 Stall prevention operation level and Pr. 156 Stall prevention

operation selection )

 Refer topage 174 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).

 When using the automatic restart after instantaneous power failure function with wiring length exceeding 100m,

select without frequency search (Pr. 162 = "1, 11"). ( Refer to page 162)
