Yaskawa AC Drives

Yaskawa Drives incorporate the latest technological advancements in AC induction motor speed control, made possible by experience and dedication to quality in design and manufacturing. The drives provide the benefits of network communications, support by software tools for parameter management, custom software options, and new ease of installation. Yaskawa is the world's largest manufacturer of AC drives and is celebrating over 90 years of service to industry. Yaskawa drives are manufactured in the United States, United Kingdom, Japan, China and other countries. Drive products are available in ratings fractional to 1500 HP.

The integral horsepower F7, G7, and P7 drives are available to 500 horsepower, and cover every automation application need in the industrial plant, from a simple fan drive to high

performance torque

control. The F7 drive is rated

for normal or heavy duty, from ½ to

500 HP. The G7 drive is the extreme performance drive with heavy duty rating and the 3-level inverter design from ½ to 500 HP. The P7 drive is rated normal duty for fans and pumps from 5 to 500 HP.

The Microdrive collection includes the J1000, V1000, and V74X drives. These compact drives range from 1/8 to 25 HP and are ideal for machine mounting. The V1000 is an open-loop current vector drive with a very flexible feature set, from 1/8 to 25 HP. The V74X is an open-loop vector drive in an integral enclosure that meets NEMA and UL type 4X/12 standards and the IP66 rating of IEC 529. The J1000 drive is a simple V/f drive from 1/8 to 7.5 HP.

Performance and Technology

Yaskawa offers a range of performance choices and innovative technologies. Control methods include V/f, open loop current vector, closed loop vector control, open looop PM, and closed loop PM for speed regulation choices of 1%,

0.1% or 0.01%. The new highslip braking feature is available for high inertia loads, without the need for dynamic braking resistors. Options for higher output frequency and zero-servo control are available. The award-winning 3-Level inverter architecture is available for 480V G7 drives to simplify installation designs. Yaskawa Drives offer real choices and real benefits.

Quality, Reliability, Customer Satisfaction

Yaskawa is the world leader in quality and reliability. Quality Magazine ranked Yaskawa among the top five companies for quality out of 800. As noted by Quality Magazine, all phases of Yaskawa's business including research and development, supply chain management, production and quality control, sales and marketing as well as technical service and distribution - are committed to delivering top quality products and service.

With an ISO 9001:2000 system, a Supplier Rating Program, and rigorous testing, Yaskawa ensures that quality and reliability are designed in and built in. Field data confirms that calculated MTBF targets are exceeded in actual production units. Yaskawa is the only manufacturer in our field to receive the Deming Prize for quality.

Power Quality

Power quality is an issue of increasing significance. Yaskawa Drives up to 25 HP are available with optional 3% or 5% equivalent line impedance DC Bus Reactors. These optional DC Bus Reactors can reduce the total harmonic distortion.

At 30 HP and above, Yaskawa Drives include 3% line impedance as standard as well as a dual diode bridge rectifier which can be configured to accept 12-pulse (delta-delta and delta-wye secondary) transformer input. These transformers can be installed at our factory as an integral part of the drive package or purchased as a loose item, to eliminate power quality issues. Yaskawa Drives can also be factory configured with an integral 18-pulse transformer. These packages are typically used to meet the most strict harmonic requirements at both drive input terminals and the point of common coupling.

The data listed below was collected on a 75 HP, 480V drive and shows the different effects bus reactors, 12-pulse, and 18-pulse harmonic mitigation solutions have at the input terminals to the drive.

Easy To Use

Yaskawa Drives are factory-programmed and ready to run. For operational simplicity and clarity, the LCD operator in the F7, G7, P7 and V1000 drives has 5 lines x 16 characters. This display can be set to several international languages. The keypad is intuitive and includes parameter copying to move a chosen set of parameters from one drive to another. Parameters are grouped in two sets; Quick Start and Advanced. The USB Copy Unit allows the J1000 or V1000 drives to connect to the USB port on a PC. It can read, copy, and verify drive parameters from one drive to another like drive.

Easy to Install and Service

All Yaskawa drives have a split cover for easy access to the power and control terminals. The power terminal compartment

easily accommodates bend radius for cable

connections. Control wires are connected to a detachable terminal board for ease of installation and maintenance.

Detachable cooling fans are easy to replace and on/off fan control can extend operating life. Accumulated operation time and cooling fan run time are recorded and can be displayed for preventive maintenance programs.

Start-up and configuration are simplified by the intuitive quick start programming menu and start-up guide in the user manual.

Distribution Channel

Yaskawa Distributors are trained by Yaskawa and continually improve drive expertise through monthly web-based training. Most distributors have a resident Certified Drive Specialist on staff, which assures you the highest level of local support. Yaskawa has decades of motion and drive experience. Backed by Yaskawa Sales Engineers, our distributors can provide the best solution for the toughest applications. Our distribution channel provides added value by offering an array of complementary products.

Technical Training
