Application Specific
Q: Who is considered qualified personnel?
A: A qualified person is one who has the skills and knowledge about the construction, installation, operation, and maintenance of the equipment and has received safety training on the hazards involved. Qualified personnel are able to recognize and properly address hazards associated with the application of motor-driven equipment, and are trained to safely energize, de-energize and ground said equipment, to safely lockout/tagout circuits and equipment, and clear faults in accordance with established safety practices.
Q: What do I do if my motor is rotating in the wrong direction?
A: Qualified personnel should reverse any two of the three ASD output power leads (U/T1, V/T2, or W/T3) connected to the motor.
Q: I followed all of the instructions but my motor will not run. What now?
A: Ensure that the input power to the ASD is connected and that the voltage at R/L1, S/L2, and T/L3 are as specified for your unit. Ensure that the terminals of the terminal board are configured correctly for your application. Perform a Reset (to factory default settings). If further assistance is required, consult the S11 ASD Instruction Manual or contact the Toshiba Customer Support Center for assistance.
Q: During system operation I receive error messages that I do not understand. Where can I find information about trips/faults/alarms and troubleshooting?
A: A complete list of LED screen displays, trip/fault/alarm descriptions and a list of possible causes of all trips/faults/alarms can be found in the S11 ASD Instruction Manual. For additional information or assistance, contact the Toshiba Customer Support Center.
S11 ASD Simple Start Guide
The S11 ASD Simple Start Guide provides instructions on installation and operating procedures only. For additional information regarding your new S11 ASD, consult the S11 ASD Instruction Manual.
DO NOT attempt to install or operate the S11 ASD until you have read and understood all of the user directions contained in this guide, and the product safety information and product labels contained in the S11 ASD Instruction Manual. Equipment warning labels provide useful information and indicate an imminently hazardous situation that may result in serious injury, severe property and equipment damage, or loss of life if safe procedures are not followed. Installation and operation shall be performed by qualified personnel only.

2. Mounting |
|
|
|
|
|
Only qualified personnel should install this equipment. |
|
|
|
|
|
The installation of the equipment should conform to the 2008 National Electrical Code (NEC)
Article 110, OSHA, as well as any other applicable national, regional, or industry codes and standards.
Installation practices shall conform to the latest revision of the NFPA 70E Electrical Safety Requirements for Employee Workplace.
It is the responsibility of the S11 ASD installer/maintenance personnel to ensure that the unit is installed in an enclosure that will protect personnel against electric shock.
Location
Select a mounting location that is easily accessible and has adequate working space. Proper
illumination is required for making inspections, adjustments, and performing equipment maintenance.
DO NOT mount the S11 ASD in a location that would produce catastrophic results if it were to fall from its mounting location (equipment damage and/or injury to personnel).
Avoid installation in direct sunlight or in areas where vibration, heat, humidity, dust, fibers, metal particles, explosive/corrosive mists or gases, sources of electrical noise are present, or
where it would be exposed to harmful liquids, solvents, or other fluids.
Temperature
The ambient operating temperature rating is 14 ° to 122 ° F (-10 ° to 50 ° C).
Ventilation
Install the unit in an upright position and in a well-ventilated area.
When installing adjacent ASDs horizontally, Toshiba recommends at least 5 cm of space
between units. However, if the top cover is removed from each ASD then horizontally mounted ASDs may be installed side-by-side with no space in-between the adjacent ASDs.
For all S11 ASDs, a minimum of 10 cm of space is required above and below adjacent units.
Lead Length
The table below lists the recommended maximum lead lengths for the listed motor voltages.
Lead lengths from the ASD to the motor in excess of those listed below may require filters to be added to the output of the ASD. Excessive lead lengths may adversely affect the
performance of the motor. Exceeding the peak voltage rating or the allowable thermal rise time of the motor insulation will reduce the life expectancy of the motor.
Contact your Toshiba Sales Representative for application assistance when using lead lengths in excess of those listed.

Contact With Energized Wiring Will |
When using an ASD output disconnect, the ASD and the motor MUST be stopped before the disconnect is either opened or closed. Closing the output disconnect while the 3-phase output of the ASD is active may result in equipment damage or injury to personnel.
De-energize and lockout/ tagout the main power, control power, and instrumentation connections
before connecting or
disconnecting the power wiring to the equipment or opening the enclosure door.
Connect the 3-phase input power to the ASD to

terminals R/L1, S/L2, and T/L3. Connect the 3-phase output power from terminals U/T1, V/T2,
and W/T3 to the motor. Ensure that all wiring is performed in accordance with national, state, and local electrical codes.
Install a circuit disconnecting device and branch circuit protection in accordance with the fault current settings of the ASD and the 2008 NEC Article 430.
For 2-Wire Control and 3-Wire Control open the enclosure door to gain access to the Terminal Board and continue below.
