After that derate by 3% for every extra 500m up to 2500m (91%).
••*Temperatures applicable for a short time, e.g. in transit.
(2) Wiring
CAUTION
z
Do not fit capacitive equipment such as a power factor correction capacitor, noise filter or surge
suppressor to the output of the inverter.
z
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
z
Check all parameters, and ensure that the machine will not be damaged by a sudden start-up.
(4) Operation
CAUTION
z
When you have chosen the retry function, stay away from the equipment as it will restart suddenly
after an alarm stop.
z
The [STOP] key is valid only when the appropriate function setting has been made. Prepare an
emergency stop switch separately.
z
Make s ure that the s tar t signal is of f bef or e res etting the inver ter alarm . A f ailure to do s o may restart
the motor suddenly.
A - 4
CAUTION
z
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.
z
The electronic overcurrent protection does not guarantee protection of the motor from overheating.
z
Do not use a magnetic contactor on the inverter input for frequent starting/stopping of the inverter.
z
Use a noise filter to reduce the effect of electromagnetic interference. Otherwise nearby electronic
equipment may be affected.
z
Take measures to suppress harmonics. Otherwise power harmonics from the inverter may
heat/damage the power capacitor and generator.
z
When a 400V class motor is inverter-driven, it should be insulation-enhanced or surge voltages
suppressed. Surge voltages attributable to the wiring constants may occur at the motor terminals,
deteriorating the insulation of the motor.
z
When parameter clear or all clear is per for m ed, each param eter returns to the f actor y setting. Re-set
the required parameters before starting operation.
z
The inverter can be easily set for high-speed operation. Before changing its setting, examine the
performance of the motor and machine.
z
In addition to the inverter's holding function, install a holding device to ensure safety.
z
Before running an inverter which had been stored for a long period, always perform inspection and
test operation.
(5) Emergency stop
CAUTION
z
Provide a safety back up such as an em ergency brake which will prevent the m achine and equipm ent
from hazardous conditions if the inverter fails.
(6) Maintenance, inspection and parts replacement
CAUTION
z
Do not carry out a megger (insulation resistance) test on the control circuit of the inverter.
(7) Disposing of the inverter

Reactors
The reactors must be us ed when the power
factor is to be improved or the inverter is
installed near a large power supply system
(1000KVA or more and wiring distance
within 10m (32.81 feet)). Make selection
carefully.
Inverter
z
The inverter life is influenced by ambient
temperature. The ambient 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 7.)

2 INSTALLATION AND W IRING
2.1 Instal lation
2.1.1 Instructions for installation
1) Handle the unit carefully.
The inverter uses plastic parts. Handle it gently to protect it from damage. Also, hold the unit with even
strength and do not apply too much strength to the front cover alone.
2) Install the inverter in a place where it is immune to vibration. (5.9 m/s2 {0.6G} or less)
Also note the cart, press, etc.
3) Note on ambient temperature
The inverter life is under great influence of ambient temperature. In the place of installation, ambient
temperature must be within the permissible range (depending upon the operation mode and conditions
(see ambient temperature specifications on page 190). Check that the ambient temperature is within that
range in the positions shown in figure 3).
4) Install the inverter on a non-combustible surface.
The inverter will be very hot (maximum about 150°C). Install it on a non-combustible surface (e.g. metal).
Also leave sufficient clearances around the inverter.
5) Avoid high temperature and high humidity.
Avoid places where the inverter is subjected to direct sunlight, high temperature and high humidity.
6) The amount of heat generated in an enclosure can be reduced considerably by placing the heat sink
outside the enclosure.
Note: 1. Use the option (FR-A5CN

) for installation. The mounting area should be cut to the panel
cutting dimensions.
2. The cooling section outside the enclosure has the cooling fan. Do not use the inverter in any
environment where it is exposed to waterdrops, oil mist, dust, etc.
7) Avoid places where the inverter is exposed to oil mist, flammable gases, fluff, dust, dirt etc.
Install the inverter in a clean place or inside a "totally enclosed" panel which does not accept any
suspended matter.
8) Note the cooling method when the inverter is installed in an enclosure.
When two or more inverters are installed or a ventilation fan is mounted in an enclosure, the inverters and
ventilation fan must be installed in proper positions with extreme care taken to keep the ambient
temperatures of the inverters below the permissible value. If they are installed in improper positions, the
ambient temperatures of the inverters will rise and ventilation effect will be reduced.
9) Install the inverter securely with screws or bolts in the vertical direction.

2.2.2 Wiring of the main circuit
(1) Wiring instructions
1) Crimping terminals with insulation sleeves are recommended for use with the power and motor cables.
2) Cut the protective bushes of the wiring cover when running the cables. (22K or less)
3) Power must not be applied to the output terminals (U, V, W ) of the inverter. Otherwise the inverter will be
damaged.
4) After wiring, wire off-cuts must not be left in the inverter.
Wire off-cuts can cause an alarm, failure or malfunction. Always keep the inverter clean.
When drilling mounting holes in a control box etc., exercise care to prevent chips and other foreign matter
from entering the inverter.
5) Use cables of the recommended size for wiring to make the voltage drop 2% or less.
If the wiring distance is long between the inverter and motor, a main circuit cable voltage drop will cause
the motor torque to decrease especially at the output of a low frequency.
6) The overall wiring length should be 500m (1640.40feet) maximum.
Especially for long distance wiring, the overcurrent protection may be misactivated or the devices connected to the
output side may misoperate or become faulty under the influence of a charging current due to the stray capacitance
of the wiring. Therefore, the maximum overall wiring length should be as indicated in the following table. (When two
or more motors are connected to the inverter, the total wiring length should be within the indicated value.)
Inverter Capac i ty 0.4K 0.75K 1.5K or more
Non-low acoustic noise mode 300m (984. 24 feet) 500m (1640. 40 f eet) 500m (1640.40 feet )
Low acoustic noi s e mode 200m (656.16 feet) 300m (984. 24 f eet) 500m (1640.40 f eet )
Overall wiring length (1.5K or more)
300m (984.24 feet) + 300m (984.24 feet) = 600m (1968.48 feet)
500m
(1640.40 feet) maximum
300m
(984.24 feet)
300m
(984.24 feet)
7) Connect only the recommended optional brake resistor between the terminals P and PR 〈+ and PR.
These terminals must not be shorted.
8) Electromagnetic wave interference
The input/output (main circuit) of the inverter includes harmonic components, which may interfere with the
communication devices (such as AM radios) used near the inverter. In this case, install the FR-BIF optional radio
noise filter (for use in the input side only ) or FR-BSF01 or FR-BLF line noise filter to minimize interference.
9) Do not install a power capacitor, surge suppressor or radio noise filter (FR-BIF option) in the output side of the
inverter.
This will cause the inverter to trip or the capacitor and surge suppressor to be damaged. If any of the above devices
are installed, immediately remove them. (If the FR-BIF radio noise filter is connected, switching power off during
motor operation may result in E.UVT. In this case, connect the radio noise filter in the primary side of the
electromagnetic contactor.)

10) W hen rewiring after operation, make sure that the POW ER lamp has gone off, and when more than 10
minutes have elapsed after power-of f , check with a tester that the voltage is zero. After that, star t rewiring
work. For some time after power-off, there is a dangerous voltage in the capacitor.
11) Use the space on the left-hand side of the main circuit terminal block to run the cable for connection of
the control circuit power terminals R1, S1 L11, L21 of the FR-A520-11K.

Do not connect more than 2 wires on the prot ect ive earth terminal.
Use contactor and no fuse breaker EN/IEC standard compliant.
Use transformer or surge absorber EN/IEC standard compliant.
Notes on Grounding
Leakage currents flow in the inverter. To prevent an electric shock, the inverter and motor must be
grounded (200V class...class 3 grounding, grounding resistance 100 maxim um), (400V class... special
class 3 grounding, grounding resistance 10 or less.).
Use the dedicated ground terminal to ground the inverter. (Do not use the screw in the case, chassis,
etc.) (Unit: mm2)

The ground cable should be as thick as possible.
Its gauge should be equal to or larger than those
indicated in the following table. The grounding
point should be as near as pos sible to the inverter
to minimize the ground cable length.
Ground the motor on the inverter side using one
wire of the 4-core cable.

2.2.3 Wiring of the control circuit
(1) Wiring instructions
1) Terminals SD, SE and 5 are common to the I/O signals and isolated from each other. These common
terminals must not be connected to each other or earthed.
2) Use shielded or twisted cables for connection to the control circuit terminals and run them away from the
main and power circuits (including the 200V relay sequence circuit).
3) The f requency input signals to the control circuit ar e micro cur rents. W hen c ontacts are required, use two
or more parallel micro signal contacts or a twin contact to prevent a contact fault.
4) It is recommended to use the cables of 0.75mm2 gauge for connection to the control circuit terminals.
If the cable gauge used is 1.25mm2 or more, the front cover may be lifted when there are many cables
running or the cables are run improperly, resulting in an operation panel or parameter unit contact fault.

<Wiring procedure>
1) For the wiring of the control circuit, strip the sheaths of the cables and use them as they are.
Strip the sheath to the following dimension. A too long stripping dimension m ay cause a short circuit with
the neighboring cable. A too short dimension may cause cable disconnection.
6mm ± 1mm
2) Loosen the terminal screw and insert the cable into the terminal.
3) Tighten the screw to the specified torque.
Undertightening can cause cable disconnection or malfunction. Overtightening can cause a short circuit or
malfunction due to the screw or unit damaged.
Tightening torque: 5 to 6 kgfcm
Note: Wire the stripped cable by twisting it to prevent it from becoming loose. (Do not plate the cable with
solder.)
Note: 1. Use a NFB (No fuse breakers) or fuse on the inverter input (primary) side.
2. Make sure that the control circuit terminal wiring does not touch power circuit terminals (or
screws) or conducting power circuit.
INSTALLATION AND WIRING
19
(3) Changing the control logic
The input signals are set to sink logic for the Japanese and NA version, and to source Logic for the EC
version.
To change the control logic, the connector on the back of the control circuit terminal block must be moved to
the other position.
(The output signals may be used in either the sink or source logic independently of the connector position.)
1) Loosen the two m ounting screws in both ends of the c ontrol circuit term inal block. ( The sc rews cannot be
removed.)
With both hands, pull down the terminal block from the back of the control circuit terminals.
2) Remove the connector from the rear surface of the control circuit terminal block and place in required
Logic position (either Sink or Source).

3) Using care not to bend the pins of the control circuit connector, reinstall the control circuit terminal block
and fix it with the mounting screws.
Note: 1. Make sure that the control circuit connector is fitted correctly.
2. While power is on, never disconnect the control circuit terminal block.
3. The sink -source logic change-over connector m ust be fitted in only one of those positions. If it is
fitted in both positions at the same time, the inverter may be damaged.

2.2.6 Design information
1) For commercial power supply-inverter switch-over operation, provide electrical and mechanical interlocks
for MC1 and MC2 designed for commercial power supply-inverter switch-over.
When there is a commercial power supply-inverter switch-over circuit as shown below, the inverter will be
damaged by leakage current from the power supply due to arcs generated at the time of switch-over or
chattering caused by a sequence error.
2) If the machine must not be restarted when power is restored after a power failure, provide a magnetic
contactor in the inverter's primary circuit and also make up a sequence which will not switch on the start
signal.
If the start signal (start switch) remains on after a power failure, the inverter will automatically restart as
soon as the power is restored.
3) When the power supply used with the control circuit is different from the one used with the main circuit,
m ake up a circuit which will switch of f the m ain circ uit power supply term inals R, S, T L1, L2, L3 when the
power supply terminals R1, S1 L11, L21 for the control circuit are switched off.
4) Since the input signals to the control circuit are on a low level, use two parallel micro signal contacts or a
twin contact for contact inputs to prevent a contact fault.
5) Do not apply a large voltage to the contact input terminals (e.g. STF) of the control circuit.
6) Do not apply a voltage directly to the alarm output signal terminals (A, B, C).
Always apply a voltage to these terminals via a relay coil, lamp, etc.
7) Make sure that the specifications and rating match the system requirements.

2.3.1 Power harmonics
Power harmonics may be generated from the converter section of the inverter, affecting power supply
equipment, power capacitors, etc. Power harmonics are different in generation source, frequency and
transmission path from radio frequency (RF) noise and leakage currents. Take the following measures.
The differences between harmonics and RF noise are indicated below:

Safeguard
The harmonic current generated from the inverter to the
power supply differs according to various conditions such as
the wiring impedance, whether a power factor improving
reactor is used or not, and output frequency and output
current on the load side.
For the output frequency and output current, the adequate
method is to obtain them under rated load at the maximum
operating frequency.

2.3.2 Japanese harmonic suppression guidelines
Harmonic currents flow from the inverter to a power receiving point via a power transformer. The harmonic
suppression guidelines were established to protect other consumers from these outgoing harmonic currents.
1) "Harmonic suppression guideline for household appliances and general-purpose products"
This guideline was issued by the Ministry of International Trade and Industries in September, 1994 and
applies to 200V class inverter s of 3.7k W ( 5HP) and less . By installing the FR-BEL or F R-BAL power f actor
improving reactor, inverters comply with the "harmonic suppression techniques for transistorized inverters
(input current 20A or less)" established by the Japan Electrical Manufacturers' Association. Therefore
install the optional reactor for the 200V class, 3.7kW (5HP) or less inverter.
2) "Harmonic suppression guideline for specific consumers"
This guideline sets forth the maximum values of harmonic currents outgoing from a high-voltage or
especially high-voltage consumer who will install, add or renew harmonic generating equipment. If any of
the maximum values are exceeded, this guideline requires that consumer to take certain suppression
measures.

1) Calculation of equivalent capacity (P0) of harmonic generating equipment
The “equivalent capacity” is the capacity of a 6-pulse converter converted from the capacity of consumer’s
harmonic generating equipment and is calculated with the following equation. If the sum of equivalent
capacities is higher than the limit in Table 3, harmonics must be calculated with the following procedure:
P0 = Σ (Ki × Pi) [kVA]
Ki: Conversion factor (refer to Table 2)
Pi: Rated capacity of harmonic generating equipment* [kVA]
I : Number indicating the conversion circuit type
*: Rated capacity: Determined by the capacity
of the applied motor and found in Table 5. It
should be noted that the rated capacity
used here is used to calculate generated
harmonic amount and is different from the
power supply capacity required for actual
inverter drive.
2) Calculation of outgoing harmonic current
Outgoing harmonic current = fundamental wave current (value converted from received power voltage) ×
operation ratio × harmonic content
Operation ratio: Operation ratio = actual load factor × operation time ratio during 30 minutes
Harmonic content: Found in Table 4.

2.3.3 Inverter-generated noises and reduction techniques
Some noises enter the inverter causing it to misoperate and others are radiated by the inverter causing
misoperation of peripheral devices. Though the inverter is designed to be insusceptible to noise, it handles
low-level signals, so it requires the following basic measures to be taken. Also, since the inverter chops the
output at a high carrier frequency, it could generate noise. If these noises cause peripheral devices to
misoperate, measures should be taken to suppress the noise. The measures differ slightly depending on
noise propagation paths.
1) Basic measures
Do not run the power cables (I/O c ables) and s ignal cables of the inverter in par allel with each other and
do not bundle them.
Use twisted shielded cables for the detector connection and control signal cables and connect the
sheathes of the shielded cables to terminal SD.
Ground the inverter, motor, etc. at one point.
2) Measures against noises which enter and cause misoperation of the inverter
When devices which generate many noises (which use magnetic contactors, magnetic brakes, many
relays, for example) are installed near the inverter and the inverter may be effected by noise, the following
measures must be taken:
Provide surge suppressors for devices that generate noise to suppress noise.
Fit data line filters to signal cables.
Ground the shields of the detector connection and control signal cables with cable clamp metal.
3) Measures against noise which is radiated by the inverter causing misoperation of peripheral devices.
Inverter-generated noise is largely classified into those radiated by the cables connected to the inverter and
inverter main circuit (I/O), those electromagnetically and electrostatically inducted to the signal cables of
the peripheral devices close to the main circuit power supply, and those transmitted through the power
supply cables.

(4) Use shiel d cables for signal c ables and power cables and run them in indi vidual metal conduits to reduce

W hen the power supplies of the peripheral devices are c onnect ed to t he power supply of t he inverter withi n the

2.3.4 Leakage currents and countermeasures
Due to the static capacitance existing in the inverter I/O wiring and motor, leakage currents flow through
them. Since their values depend on the static capacitance, carrier frequency, etc., take the following
measures.
(1) To-ground leakage currents
Leakage curr ents may flow not only into the inverter 's own line but also into the other line through the ground
cable, etc. These leakage currents may operate earth leakage circuit breakers and earth leakage relays
unnecessarily.
Countermeasures
Decrease the carrier frequency (Pr. 72) of the inverter.
Note that motor noise increases. Selection of Soft-PWM (Pr. 240) will make it unoffending.
By using earth leakage circuit breakers designed for harmonics and surges (e.g. Mitsubishi's Progressive
Super Series) in the inverter's own line and other line, operation can be performed with low noise (with
the carrier frequency kept high)
To-ground leakage current
Note that a long wiring length will increase leakage currents. Decrease the carrier frequency of the
inverter to reduce leakage currents.
Higher motor capacity leads to larger leakage c ur rents . Lar ger leakage curr ents occ ur in 400V clas s than
in 200V class.
(2) Line-to-line leakage currents
Harmonics of leakage currents flowing in static capacities between the inverter output cables may operate the
external thermal relay unnecessarily. When the wiring length is long (50m (164.04 f eet) or m ore) f or the 400V
class small-capacity model (7.5kW (10HP) or less), the external thermal relay is likely to operate
unnecessarily because the ratio of the leakage current to the rated motor current increases.

2.3.5 Inverter-driven 400V class motor
In the PWM type inverter, a s ur ge voltage attributable to wiring cons tants is generated at the motor ter minals.
Especially for a 400V class motor, the surge voltage may deteriorate the insulation. When the 400V class
motor is driven by the inverter, consider the following measures:
Measures
It is recommended to take either of the following measures:
(1) Rectify ing the motor insulation
For the 400V class motor, use an insulation-rectified motor. Specifically,
1) Specify the “400V class inverter-driven, insulation-rectified motor”.
2) For the dedicated motor such as the constant-torque motor and low-vibration motor, use the
“inverter-driven, dedicated motor”.
(2) Suppressing the surge voltage on the inverter side
On the secondary side of the inverter, connect the optional surge voltage suppression filter (FR-ASF-H).

2.3.8 Instructions for compliance with the European standards
(The products conforming to the Low Voltage Directive carry the CE mark.)
(1) EMC Directive
1) Our view of transistorized inverters for the EMC Directive
A transistorized inverter does not function independently. It is a component designed for installation in
a control box and for use with the other equipment to control the equipment/device. Therefore, we
understand that the EMC Directive does not apply directly to transistorized inverters. For this reason,
we do not place the CE mark on the transistorized inverters themselves. (The CE mark is placed on
inverters in accordance with the Low Voltage Directive.) The European power drive manufacturers'
organization (CEMEP) also holds this point of view.
2) Compliance
We understand that the transistorized inverters themselves are not covered directly by the EMC
Directive. However, the EMC Directive applies to machines/equipment into which transistorized
inverters have been incorporated, and these machines and equipment must carry the CE marks.
Hence, we prepared the technical information "EMC Installation Guidelines" (information number BCN-
A21041-202) so that machines and equipment incorporating transistorized inverters may conform to
the EMC Directive more easily.
3) Outline of installation method
Install an inverter using the following methods:
* Use the inverter with an European Standard-compliant noise filter.
* For wiring between the inverter and motor, use shielded cables or run them in a metal piping and
ground the cables on the inverter and motor sides with the shortest possible distance.
* Insert a line noise filter and ferrite core into the power and control lines as required.
Full information including the European Standard-compliant noise filter specifications are written in
the technical information "EMC Installation Guidelines" (information number BCN-A21041-202).
Please contact your sales representative.
(2) Low Voltage Directive
1) Our view of transistorized inverters for the Low Voltage Directive
Transistorized inverters are covered by the Low Voltage Directive.
2) Compliance
We have self-confirmed our inverters as products compliant to the Low Voltage Directive and place
the CE mark on the inverters.
3) Outline of instructions
* In the 400V class inverters, the rated input voltage range is three-phase, 380V to 415V, 50Hz/60Hz.
* Connect the equipment to the earth securely. Do not use an earth leakage circuit breaker as an
electric shock protector without connecting the equipment to the earth.
* Wire the earth terminal independently. (Do not connect two or more cables to one terminal.)
* On the input side, use the r ecomm ended no-fuse break er and m agnetic contactor which conform to
the EN or IEC Standard.
* Use the inverter under the conditions of overvoltage categor y II and contam ination level 2 or less set
forth in IEC664.
(a) T o meet the overvoltage categor y II, insert an EN or IEC st andard- compliant isolation transf or mer
or surge suppressor in the input of the inverter.
(b) T o meet the contamination level 2, ins tall the invert er in a c ontro l box pr otec ted against ingr es s of
water, oil, carbon, dust, etc. (IP54 or higher).
* In the input and output of the inverter , use c ables of the type and size set forth in EN60204 Appendix
C.
* The operating c apacity of the relay outputs (ter minal symbols A, B, C) should be 30VDC, 0.3A. (T he
relay outputs are basically isolated from the inverter's internal circuitry.)
Details are given in the technic al info rm ation "Low Voltage Directive Confor m ance Guide" (infor m ation
number BCN-A21041-203). Please contact your sales representative.

2.3.9 Earthing (EC version)
(1) Earthing and Earth Leakage Current
(a) Purpose of Earthing
Electrical equipment usually has an Earthing Terminal, this must be connected to earth before using
equipment.
For protection, electric circuits are normally housed inside an insulated case. However it is impossible
to manufacture insulating materials that prevent all current from leaking across them, therefore it is the
function of the earth (safety earth) to prevent electric shocks when touching the case.
There is however, another important earthing function, which is to prevent equipment that uses very
weak signals (Audio equipment, sensors, transducers, etc.) or micro processors from being affected
by Radio Frequency Interference, (RFI) from external sources.
(b) Points to remember when Earthing
As detailed above there are two entirely different types of earthing and to attempt to use the same
earth for both will lead to problems. It is necessary to separate the “safety” earthing (a yellow/green
wire to prevent electric shocks) from the “FRI” earthing (a braided wire strap to counter radio noise).
The inverter output voltage does not take the form of a sine wave but of a modulated pulse wave form
causing “noisy” leakage current due to the capacitance of the insulation.
The same type of leakage current will occur in the motor due to the charging and discharging of the
insulation from the high frequency wave form. This trend becomes more pronounced with higher
carrier frequencies.
To solve this problem it is necessary to use separate “dirty” earthing for inverter and motor installations
an “clean” earting for equipment such as sensors, computers and audio equipment.
(2) Earthing methods
Two main ty pes of earth
1-To prevent electrical shocks
Yellow and green cable
2-To prevent RFI induced malfunction
Braided strap
It is im portant to m ake a clear dis tinction between these two, and to keep them separate by following the
measures below.
a) When possible earth the inverter independently of other equipment.
If independent earthing is not possible, use a common earthing point.
Avoid connecting earthing wires together particularly on high power equipment such as motors and
inverters.
Independent earthing should always be used between sensitive equipment and inverters.

c) The safety earth should be as thick as possible, minimum thickness as stated in below table.
d) The earthing point should be as close to the inverter as possible, and the wire as short as possible.
e) T he RF I earth s hould be a br aided st rap with a 10m m2 m inim um cross sectional area, and as s hort as
possible.
f) T he earths should be as far away from input and output cables (particularly to equipment sensitive to
RFI) as possible, and any distance where they are parallel should be kept to a minimum.

By using the operation panel (FR-DU04), the parameter values can be copied to another inverter (only the
FR-A500 series).
1) Operation procedure
After reading the parameter values from the copy source inverter, connect the operation panel to the
copy destination inverter, and write the parameter values.
After writing the parameters to the inverter of copy destination, always reset the inverter, e.g. switch
power off once, before starting operation.

Note: 1. W hile the copy function is being ac tivated, the monitor display flick ers. T he display r eturns to the
lit-up state on completion of the copy function.
2. If a read error occurs during parameter read, "read error (E.rE1)" is displayed.
3. If a write error occurs during parameter write, "write error (E.rE2)" is displayed.
4. If a data discrepancy occurs during parameter verify, the corresponding parameter number and
"verify error (E.rE3)" are displayed alternately. If the direct frequency setting or jog frequency
setting is discrepant, "verify error (E.rE3)" flickers. To ignore this display and continue verify,
press the [SET] key.
5. When the copy destination inverter is not the FR-A500 series, "model error (E.rE4)" is displayed.
Reference: It is recommended to read the parameter values after completion of parameter setting.
By writing the param eter values f rom the operation panel fitted to a new inverter after inverter
replacement, parameter setup can be completed.

A large setting will cause the motor to overheat. The guideline for maximum value is about 10%.

Pr. 46 is valid when the RT signal is on. Pr. 112 is valid when the X9 signal is on. Use any of Pr. 180 to
Pr. 186 to assign the terminal used to input the X9 signal.
Note: 1. When using a constant-torque motor, change the setting of this parameter as follows:
0.4K, 0.75K...6%, 1.5K to 3.7k, 4%, 5.5K or more...2%
2. This parameter setting is ignored when Pr. 80 and Pr. 81 have been set to select the advanced
magnetic flux vector control mode.
3. When the Pr. 0 setting is either of the following values for 5.5K and 7.5K, it is automatically
changed when the Pr.71 setting is changed:
(1) When Pr. 0 setting is 3% (factory setting)
The Pr. 0 setting is changed to 2% automatically when the Pr. 71 setting is changed from
[general-purpose motor selection value (0, 2 to 8, 20, 23, 24)] to [constant-torque motor
selection value (1, 13 to 18)].
(2) When Pr. 0 setting is 2%
The Pr. 0 setting is changed to 3% (factory setting) automatically when the Pr. 71 setting is
changed from [constant-torque motor selection value (1, 13 to 18)] to [general-purpose motor
selection value (0, 2 to 8, 20, 23, 24)].
4. Increase the s etting when the inverter -to-motor dis tance is long or m otor torque in the low-s peed
range is insufficient, for example. A too large setting may result in an overcurrent trip.
5. When the RT (X9) signal is on, the other second (third) functions such as second (third)
acceleration/deceleration time are also selected.
6. W hen term inal assignm ent is changed using Pr. 180 to Pr. 186 dur ing use of the sec ond or third
functions, the other functions may be affected. Check the functions of the corresponding
terminals before making setting.

· Use Pr. 1 to set the upper limit of the output frequency. If the frequency of the frequency command entered
is higher than the setting, the output frequency is clamped at the maximum frequency.
To perform operation over 120Hz, set the upper limit of the output frequency in Pr. 18.
(When the Pr. 18 value is set, Pr. 1 automatically changes to the frequency in Pr. 18.)
· Use Pr. 2 to set the lower limit of the output frequency.
Note: When the frequenc y setting analog signal is used to run the m otor beyond 60Hz, change the Pr . 903
and Pr. 905 values. If Pr. 1 or Pr. 18 is only changed, the motor cannot run beyond 60Hz.
CAUTION
W hen the Pr. 2 setting is higher than the Pr. 13 value, note that the motor will run at the set
frequency by merely sw it ching t he start signal on, without ent ering t he command frequency.

z
For high-s peed operation at or over 60Hz, acceleration m ay not be m ade because the motor current does
not increase. To improve the operation characteristics of the motor in such a case, the stall prevention level
in the high-frequency range can be reduced. This is ef fective for operation of a centrifugal separator up to
the high-speed range. Normally, set 60Hz 50Hz in Pr. 66 and 100% in Pr. 23.
z
For operation in the high-frequency range, the current in the locked motor state is smaller than the rated
output current of the inverter and the inverter does not result in an alarm (protective function is not
activated) if the motor is at a stop. T o impr ove this and activate the alarm , the stall pr evention level can be
reduced.
z
In order to provide torque during stall prevention, Pr. 154 is factory-set not to reduce the output voltage.
The setting of reducing the output voltage further decreases the probability of overcurrent trip occurrence.

(Note 1)
For mac hi ne t ool spindles
This setting is used when it is necessary to make acceleration/deceleration in a short time up to the
60Hz or higher speed range. I n thi s ac cel eration/ decel eration pat tern, fb (bas e f requency) is always the
inflection point of an S shape, and you can set the acceleration/deceleration time according to the
reduction i n motor torque i n the 60Hz or higher constant-output operation range.
2S-shaped
acceleration/
decelerati on B
Prevention of cargo collaps e on conveyor, etc.
This setting provides S-shaped acceleration/deceleration from f2 (current frequency) to f1 (target
frequency), eas ing an acceleration/ deceleration shock . This pattern has an effect on the prevent ion of
cargo coll apse, etc.
3Backlash
compensation
(Note 2, 3)
Backl ash com pensation for reduction gear, et c.
This function stops the speed change temporarily during acceleration/deceleration, reducing a shock
generated when a reduction gear backlash is eliminated suddenly. Use Pr. 140 to Pr. 143 to set the
stopping t i mes and s topping frequenci es i n accordance with t he above di agrams.
Note: 1. For the acceleration/deceleration time, set the time required to reach the "base frequency" in
Pr. 3, not the "acceleration/deceleration reference frequency" in Pr. 20. For details, refer to Pr. 7 and
Pr. 8.
2. Pr. 140 to Pr. 143 is accessible when "3" is set in Pr. 29.
3. The acceleration/deceleration time is increased by the stopping time.

You can restart the inverter without stopping the motor (with the motor coasting) when the commercial
power supply is switched to the inverter operation or when the power is restored after an instantaneous
power failure. (When automatic restart operation is set to be enabled, UVT and IPF among the alarm
output signals will not be output at occurrence of an instantaneous power failure.)

Normally the motor may be run with the factory settings. These values are adjustable
to the load (i nert i a mom ent, torque).
Note: 1. W hen restart operation is selected, UVT and IPF among the alarm output signals are not output
at occurrence of an instantaneous power failure.
2. If the inverter capacity is more than one rank higher than the motor capacity, an overcurrent
(OCT) alarm may take place, disabling the motor from starting.
3. When Pr. 57 9999, the inverter will not run if the CS signal remain off.
4. When Pr. 162 = "0", connection of two or more motors to one inverter will make the inverter
function improperly. (The inverter will not start properly.)
5. W hen Pr . 162 = "0", the DC dynam ic brak e is operated instantly on detection of restar ting speed.
Therefore, if the inertia moment (GD2) of the load is small, the speed may reduce.
6. When Pr. 162 = "1", the output frequency before an instantaneous power failure is stored and
output at the time of r estart. If the power of the inver ter contr ol circuit is lost, the f requency before
an instantaneous power failure cannot be stored and the inverter will start at 0Hz.
7. The SU and FU signals are not output during restar t but are output af ter the res tart cushion time
has elapsed.
CAUTION
Provide mechanical interlocks for MC1 and MC2.
The invert er will be damaged if power is entered int o t he inverter out put section.
When automatic restart after instantaneous power failure has been selected, the motor and
machine will start suddenly (after the reset time has elapsed) after occurrence of an
instantaneous power failure. Stay away from the motor and machine.
When you have selected automatic restart after instantaneous power failure, apply the
supplied CAUTION seals in easily visible places.

· Use Pr. 59 to select whether the remote setting function is used or not and whether the frequency setting
storage function in the remote setting mode is used or not. When "remote setting function - yes" is
selected, the functions of terminals RH, RM and RL are changed to acceleration (RH), deceleration (RM)
and clear (RL).
Note: 1. The frequency can be varied by RH (acceleration) and RM (deceleration) between 0 and the
maximum frequency (Pr. 1 or Pr. 18 setting).
2. W hen the acceleration or deceleration signal switches on, the set frequency varies according to
the slope set in Pr. 44 or Pr . 45. The output frequenc y acceleration/deceler ation times are as set
in Pr. 7 and Pr. 8, respectively. Therefore, the longer preset times are used to vary the actual
output frequency.
3. The frequency setting storage function stores in memory the remotely-set frequency (frequency
set by RH/RM operation) when the acceleration and dec eleration signals rem ain of f f or m ore than
1 minute or as soon as the start signal (STF or STR) switches off. W hen power is switched off,
then on, operation is resumed with that value.

Note: 1. By entering the res et signal (RES) during operation, the inverter shuts off output while it is r eset,
the data of the electronic overcurrent protection and regenerative brake duty are reset, and the
motor coasts.
2. The PU disconnection detection f unction judges that the PU connec tor is disc onnected when it is
removed from the inverter for more than 1 second. If the PU had been disconnected before
power-on, it is not judged as an alarm.
3. To resume operation, reset the inverter after confirming that the PU is connected securely.
4. When PU disconnection detection is set and the PU is then disconnected during PU jog
operation, the motor decelerates to a stop. The motor will not stop if a PU disconnection alarm
occurs.
5. The Pr. 75 value can be set any time. Also, if parameter (all) clear is executed, this setting will not
return to the initial value.
6. W hen the motor is stopped by the PU stop function, PS is displayed but an alarm is not output.
When the PU connector is us ed f or RS- 485 c omm unic ation oper ation, the res et s elec tion and PU
stop selection functions are valid but the PU disconnection detection function is invalid.
7. The res et k ey of the PU is only valid when the protective f unction is ac tivated, independent of the
Pr. 75 setting.
8. W hen Pr . 79 = "3", press the [MOD E] key three times, then pr ess the [UP/DOWN] k ey to display

CAUTION
Do not reset t he inverter with the start signal on.
Otherw ise, t he motor will start instantly after r esetting, which may lead t o hazardous conditions.

When the PU operation interlock signal is s witched of f , the operation mode is f orc ibly changed to the exter nal

mode is accidentally left unswitched from the PU operation mode.

Note: 1. When the Pr. 79 setting is 7 and the PU oper ation inter lock signal is O FF , network oper ation s uch
as computer link cannot be used.
2. If the X12 ( MRS) signal is on, the operation m ode cannot be switched to the PU operation m ode
when the start signal (STF, STR) is on.
3. The operation mode switches to the external operation mode independently of whether the start
signal (STF, STR) is on or off. Therefore, the motor is run in the external operation mode when
the X12 (MRS) signal is switched off with either of STF and STR on.
4. When an alarm occurs, the inverter can be reset by pressing the [RESET] key of the operation
panel.
5. When the MRS signal is used as the PU interlock signal, switching the MRS signal on and
rewriting the Pr. 79 value to other than 7 in the PU operation mode causes the MRS signal to
provide the ordinary MRS function (output stop). Also, as soon as 7 is set in Pr. 79, the MRS
signal acts as a PU interlock signal.
6. When the MRS signal is used as the PU external inter lock signal, the signal logic confor m s to the
Pr. 17 setting. When Pr. 17 = 2, read ON for OFF and OFF for ON in the above explanation.

1) Preparation
Set "8" (switching to other than external operation mode) in Pr. 79. Using any of Pr. 180 to Pr. 186 (input
terminal function selection), allocate the terminal used to input the X16 (PU-external operation switching)
signal.
2) Function
When the X16 signal is switched on in the PU operation mode, the operation mode is forcibly changed to
the external operation mode. When the X16 signal is switched off in the external operation mode, the
operation mode is changed to the PU operation mode. When the X16 signal is switched off during network
operation such as computer link, the operation mode is changed to the PU operation mode as soon as the
switch-over command to the external operation mode is sent from the computer. Note that this switch-over
may only be made while the inverter is at a stop and cannot be made during operation.

2) The motor may be run at nearly its rated frequency (Pr. 84 setting) without problem.
3) The brake is open.
4) No external force is applied to rotate the motor.
· If "1" (tuning without motor running) is set in Pr. 96, the motor may run slightly. Therefore, fix the motor
securely with a mechanical brake, or before tuning, make sure that there will be no problem in safety if the
motor runs.
This instruction must be followed especially for vertical lift applications.
Note that if the motor runs slightly , tuning performance is unaffected.
Note: Offline auto tuning will not be performed properly if it is performed when the reactor or surge

(4) Ending the offline auto tuning
1) Confirm the Pr. 96 value.
· Normal end: "3" or "103" is displayed.
· Error-activated end: "9", "91", "92" or "93" is displayed.
· Forced end ... "8" is displayed.
2) When tuning ended normally.
For PU operation, press the [STOP] key. For external operation, switch off the start signal (STF or STR).
This operation resets the offline auto tuning and the PU's monitor display returns to the ordinary indication.
(Without this operation, next operation cannot be done.)
3) When tuning was ended due to an error.
Offline auto tuning did not end normally. (Motor constants have not been set.) Reset the inverter and start
tuning all over again.
4) Error display definitions.

PARAMETERS

5) When tuning was forced to end
A forced end occurs when tuning is forced to end by pressing the [STOP] key or turning off the start signal
(STF or STR) during tuning.
In this case, offline auto tuning was not brought to a normal end. (The motor constants are not yet set.)
Reset the inverter and restart tuning.
Note: 1. The m otor c onstants m easured onc e in the off line auto tuning are stor ed as par am eters and their
data is held until the offline auto tuning is performed again.
2. An instantaneous power failure occurring during tuning will result in a tuning error. After power is
restored, the inverter goes into the ordinary operation mode. Therefore, when STF (STR) is on,
the motor runs in forward (reverse) rotation.
3. When "8888" is set in Pr. 11, the tuning is forced to end and the DC dynamic brake is started
upon input of the MRS signal.
4. Any alarm occurring during tuning is handled as in the ordinary mode.
Note that if an error retry has been set, retry is ignored.
5. The set frequency monitor displayed during the offline auto tuning is 0Hz.
CAUTION
Note that t he motor may st art running suddenly.
W hen the offline auto tuning is used in vertical lift application, e.g. a lifter, it may drop due to
insufficient torque.
<Setting the motor constants as desired>
The m otor c onstants (Pr. 90 to Pr. 94) m ay be set as desired in either of two ways; the data m easured
in the offline auto tuning is read and utilized or changed, or the motor constants are set without the
offline
auto tuning data being used.
To utilize or change the offline auto tuning data
<Operating procedure>
1. Set "801" in Pr. 77. Only when the Pr. 80 and Pr. 81 settings are other than "9999", the parameter
values of the motor constants (Pr. 90 to Pr. 94) can be displayed. Though the parameter values of
other than the motor constants (Pr. 90 to Pr. 94) can also be displayed, they are parameters for
manufacturer setting and should be handled carefully without misuse.
2. Set any of the following values in Pr. 71:
· Standard motor...................................................................................... Pr. 71 = "4"
· Constant-torque motor........................................................................... Pr. 71 = "14"

"4, 14 or 24" in Pr. 71 and change the motor constants to change the values measured in the
offline auto tuning.
4. As the motor constants measured in the offline auto tuning have been converted into internal data
(****), refer to the following setting example when making setting:

When Pr. 90 is displayed "2516", set 2642, i.e. 2516×1.05=2641.8, in Pr. 90.
(The value displayed has been converted into a value for internal use. Hence, simple addition of a
given value to the displayed value has no significance.)

· Data required for online auto tuning is calculated in offline auto tuning. Before starting the operation of
this function, always execute the of fline auto tuning once more. The offline auto tuning is also required
for use of the Mitsubishi standard motor (SF-JR) or constant-torque motor (SF-JRCA).
· Offline auto tuning should be carried out with "101" (motor running) set in Pr. 96 and with the motor
disconnected from the load. (The motor may be connected with inertia load.)
<Operating procedure>
1) Read the Pr. 96 value and make sure that its setting is "3 or 103" (offline auto tuning complete).
2) Set "1" in Pr. 95 to select the online auto tuning.
3) Before starting operation, make sure that the following parameter values have been set:

4) Give the run command in the PU or external operation mode.
Note: 1. If any of the inverter starting conditions are not satisfied, e.g. when MRS is input, if the set
frequency is lower than the starting frequency (Pr. 13) value, or during an inverter error, the
online auto tuning is not activated.
2. For a restart during deceleration or DC dynamic brake operation, the online auto tuning is not
activated.
3. The online auto tuning is invalid for programmed operation or jog operation.
4. W hen automatic restart after instantaneous power failure is selected, it overrides the online
auto tuning.
5. For use in vertical lift application, examine the use of a brake sequence for brake opening
timing at the start. Though the tuning ends in about a maximum of 500ms after a start,
enough torque is not provided dur ing that period. Theref ore, note that the load may drop with
gravity.
6. Zero current detection and output current detection are also valid during the online auto
tuning.
7. The RUN s ignal is not output during the online auto tuning. The RUN s ignal switches on at a
start.
8. W hen pr ogram med oper ation is selected ( Pr. 79 = 5), the online auto tuning is invalid and is
not executed.

(The number of characters is decr ease d by 1. )
7) Error co de
If any error is found in the data received by the inverter, its definition is sent back to the computer together
with the NAK code.
Note: 1. When the data from the computer has an error, the inverter will not accept that data.
2. Any data communication, e.g. run command, monitoring, is started when the computer
gives a communication request. Without the computer's command, the inverter does not
return any data. For monitoring, therefore, design the program to cause the computer to
provide a data read request as required.
3. Data for link parameter expansion setting differs as indicated below between access to

Instructions for the program
(1) When the operation mode is switched to communication operation.
(2) Since any data communication, such as operation command or monitoring, is always requested by the
computer, the inverter will not return data without the computer's request. Hence, design the program so
that the computer gives a data read request for monitoring, etc. as required.

CAUTION
When the inverter's communication check time interval is not set, interlocks are provided to
disable operation to prevent hazard. Always set the communication check time interval
before starting operation.
Data communication is not started automatically but is made only when the computer
provides a communication request. If communication is disabled during operation due to
signal cable breakage etc, the invert er cannot be st opped. When the communication check
time interval has elapsed, the inver ter will come to an alarm st op ( E. PUE) .
The inverter can be coast ed t o a st op by switching on its RES signal or by switching power
off.
If communication is halted due to signal cable breakage, computer fault etc., the inverter
does not detect such a fault . This should be fully noted.

(7) Calibration example
(A detector of 4mA at 0°C and 20mA at 50°C is used to adjust the room temperature to 25°C under PID
control.
The set point is given to across inverter terminals 2-5 (0-5V).)
Yes

*When calibration is required, use Pr. 902 to Pr. 905 to calibrate the detector output and set point setting
input in the PU mode durin

START
Determine the set point.
Determine the set point of the
item to be adjusted.
Convert the set point into %.
Calculate the ratio of the set
point to the detector output.

Set the set point.
Enter a voltage to across
terminals 2-5 according to
the set point (%).
Operation
Set the proportional band and
integral time to slightly higher
values and the differential time to
a slightly lower value, and switch
on the start signal.
Is the process
value stead y?
Adjust parameters.
Set the proportional band and
integral time to slightly higher
values and set the differential time
to a slightly lower value to stabilize
the process value.
END
Optimize parameters.
While the process value is steady,
the proportional band and integral
time may be reduced and the
differential time increased
throughout the operation.

Set the room temperature to 25°C.
Set Pr. 128 and switch on the X14 signal to enable PID control.

Detector specifications
When the detector used has the specifications that 0°C is equivalent to
4mA and 50°C to 50mA, the set point of 25°C is 50% because 4mA is
equivalent to 0% and 20mA to 100%.
xxxxxx
When the set point setting input (0 to 5V) and detector output (4 to
20mA) must be calibrated, make the following calibration*.
xxxxxx
Set point = 50%
Since the specifications of terminal 2 are such that 0% is equivalent
to 0V and 100% to 5V, enter 2.5V into terminal 2.
xxxxxx
For PU operation, set the set point (0 to 100%) in Pr. 133.
During operation, set the proportional band and integral time to
slightly higher values and set the differential time to a slightly
lower value. In accordance with the system operation, reduce the
proportional band and integral time and increase the differential time.

Note 1: When "Operation not continued for OL signal output" is selected, the "E.OLT" alarm code
(stopped by stall prevention) is displayed and operation stopped.
(Alarm stop display "E.OLT")
Note 2: If the load is heavy, the lift is predetermined, or the acceleration/deceleration time is short, the
stall prevention may be activated and the motor not stopped in the preset
acceleration/deceleration time. Therefore, set optimum values to the Pr. 156 stall prevention
operation level.
(When the output voltage reduces during stall prevention operation, an overcurrent trip will be less
liable to occur but the torque decreases. Set "0" in Pr. 154 when the torque may be reduced.)
CAUTION
Always perform test operat ion.
Stall prevent ion operat ion performed during acceleration may increase t he accelerat ion t ime.
Stall prevent ion operat ion performed during constant speed may cause sudden speed
changes.
Stall prevent ion operat ion performed during deceleration may increase t he decelerat ion t ime,
increasing the deceleration distance.

Note: 1. Under PLG feedback control (when the FR-A5AP option is loaded), the operations of the up-to-
frequency SU and frequency detection FU, FU2, FU3 are as follows:
SU, FU: The actual speed (frequency) provided by the PLG feedback signal is output at or above
the frequency specified for detection.
FU, FU3: The inverter output frequency is output at or above the frequency specified for
detection.
2. When the frequency setting is varied with the analog signal or the [UP/DOWN] key of the
operation panel, note that the output of the SU (up-to-frequency) signal may alternate between
ON and OFF due to that varying speed and the timing of the varying speed dependent on the
acceleration/deceleration time setting.
3. This signal is output when "5" is set in Pr. 79 "operation mode selection" and the external
operation mode is selected (the inverter goes into the programmed mode).
4. The same function may be set to more than one terminal.
5. When the function is activated, the terminal conducts with the settings of 0 to 99 and does not
conduct with the settings of 100 to 199.
6. Pr. 190 to Pr. 195 do not function if the values set are other than the above.
7. When Pr. 76 = 1 or 3, the output signals of the SU, IPF, OL and FU output terminals conform to
Pr. 76. When an inverter alarm occurs, the signal outputs are switched over to alarm code
outputs.
8. The output as signm ent of the RUN terminal and alarm output relay conform s to the above s etting
independently of Pr. 76.

(6) Operation
1) Ordinary operation
After completion of all preparations and settings, turn on the desired group select signal (any of RH
(group 1), RM (group 2) and RL (group 3)), then turn on the start signal (STF). This causes the internal
timer (reference time of day) to be reset automatically and the operation of that group to be performed
in sequence in accordance with the settings. When the operation of the group ends, a signal is output
from the time-out output terminal. (The open collector signal of SU is turned on.)
Note: Use the program med operation function with "5" set in Pr. 79. Program med operation will not be
performed if any of the group select signals is switched on during PU operation or data link
operation.

frequency set in Pr. 262 from the output frequency at that time. If the output frequency at
occurrence of undervoltage or power failure is less than the frequency set in Pr. 263, the
inverter is decelerated to a s top, starting at the out put frequency at t hat time.

Stop-on-contact, load torque high-speed f requency select ion (Pr. 270)
Pr. 270 "stop-on-contact, load torque
high-speed frequency selection"
To ensure accurate positioning at the upper limit etc of a lift, stop-on-contact control causes a mechanical
brake to be closed while the motor is developing a holding torque to keep the load in contact with a
mechanical stopper etc.
This function suppresses vibration which is liable to occur when the load is stopped upon contact in vertical
motion applications, ensuring steady precise positioning.
Load torque high-speed f requency control autom atically sets the max imum operating f requency acc ording to
the load.
Specific ally, the weight of the load is determined after a s tart by the average current at a given time; when the
load is light, the preset frequency can be increased for operation.
When the load is light, speed can be automatically increased in a sky parking lot, for example, to reduce
incoming and outgoing times.

<Operation example>
z
At start: When the start signal is input to the inverter, the inverter starts running. When the output frequency
reaches the value set in Pr. 278 and the output current is not les s than the value set in Pr . 279, the inverter
outputs the brake opening request signal (BOF) after the time set in Pr. 280 has elapsed.
When the time set in Pr. 281 elapses after the brake opening completion signal (BRI) was activated, the
inverter increases the output frequency to the set speed.
z
At stop: W hen the speed has decreased to the frequency set in Pr. 282, the brake opening request signal
(BOF) is switched off. When the time set in Pr. 283 elapses after the brake operation confirmation
signal (BRI) was activated, the inverter output is switched off.

(3) Protective functions
If any of the following errors occur in the brake sequence mode, the inverter results in an alarm, shuts off the
output and switches off the brake opening request signal (BOF terminal).
On the operation panel (FR-DU04) LED and parameter unit (FR-PU04) screen, the following errors are
displayed:

This is effective in balancing the load when using multiple inverters.
z
The output frequency is varied according to the amount of torque current during unbalanced flux vector
control and vector control.

the protective circ ui t is activated to s top the inverter out put.
This may also be activated by a surge voltage generated in the power
supply system .
E.THM Motor
Ovrload Motor
The electronic overcurrent protection in the inverter detects motor
overheat due to overload or cooling capability reduced during constant-
speed operation. When 85% of the preset value is reached, pre-alarm
(TH indication) occurs. When the specified value is reached, the
protective circuit is activated to stop the inverter output. W hen a special
motor such as a multi-pole motor or more than one motor is run, the
motor cannot be protected by the electronic overcurrent protection.
Provide a thermal relay i n the inverter output circ ui t.

charact eri s tics cause the electronic overc urrent protect i on t o be activated
to stop the inverter output. (Overload immunity: 150%, 60 seconds)
E.IPF Inst.Pwr.
Loss Ins t antaneous power failure
protection
If a power failure has occurred in excess of 15ms (this applies also to
inverter input s hut-off), this function is ac tivated to stop the invert er
output to prevent the cont rol c i rcuit from mi soperation. At this time, the
alarm output contacts are opened (ac ros s B-C) and closed (across A-C)
(Note 1). If a power failure persis ts for more than 100m s, the alarm
output is not provided, if the start signal is on at the time of power
restoration, the inverter will restart. (I f a power failure is instantaneous
within 15ms, the control circ ui t operates properly.)
E.UVT Under

If the inverter power supply voltage reduces , the control circuit will not
operate properly, res ul t i ng i n decreased m otor torque or increas ed
heat generation. To prevent this, if the power supply voltage reduces
below 150V (about 300V for t he 400V class), this function stops the
inverter output.

contac t s "open"), t he i nverter output can be stopped if those contacts
had been entered into t he i nverter. If the relay contacts are reset
automatically, the inverter will not restart unless it is reset.
During accel eration
If a current m ore t han 150% (Not e 4) of t he rated invert er current fl ows in
the motor, this function lowers the frequency until the load current
reduces to prevent the inverter from resulting in overcurrent shut-off.
W hen the load current has reduc ed below 150%, t his function increases
the frequency again to accelerate and operate the inverter up to the set
frequency.
During constant-speed
operation
If a current more than 150% (Note 4) of the rated inverter current flows in
the motor, this function lowers the frequency until the load current reduces
to prevent overcurrent shut-off. When the load current has reduced below
150%, this function increases the frequency up to the set value.

Inverters of 7.5K or less contain a brake res istor. W hen the regenerat ive
brake duty from the motor has reac hed 85% of the s pec i fied value,
pre-alarm (RB indication) occurs. If the specified value is exceeded, the
brake circuit operati on i s stopped temporarily to protect the brake resistor
from overheating. (If the brake is operated in this state, regenerative
overvoltage shut-off will occur.) W hen the brak e resistor has cooled, the

Note: 1. If Pr. 195 (A, B, C terminal function selection) is as set in the factory.
2. The terminals used must be allocated using Pr. 190 to Pr. 195.
3. External thermal relay operation is only activated when "OH" is set in any of Pr. 180 to Pr. 186
(input terminal function selection).
4. Indicates that the stall prevention operation level has been set to 150% (factory setting). If this
value is changed, stall prevention is operated at the new value.
5. Resetting method
When the protective function is activated and the inverter stops its output (the motor is coasted to
a stop), the inverter is kept stopped. Unless reset, the inverter cannot restart. To reset the
inverter, use any of the following methods: switch power off once, then on again; short reset
terminal RES-SD for more than 0.1 second, then open; press the [RESET] key of the parameter
unit (use the help function of the parameter unit). If RES-SD is kept shorted, the operation panel
will show "Err." or the parameter unit will show that the inverter is being reset.

zTo know the operating status at the occurrence of an alarm
When any alarm has occurred, the display automatically switches to the indication of the corresponding
protective function (err or). By press ing the [MODE] key at this point without resetting the inverter, the display
shows the output fr equency. In this way, it is pos sible to know the running f requency at the occurrence of the
alarm. It is also possible to know the current in the same manner. However, these values are not stored in
memory and are erased when the inverter is reset.

5.3 Precaut ions for Maintenance and Inspect ion
The transistorized inverter is a static unit mainly consisting of semiconductor devices. Daily inspection must
be performed to prevent any fault from occurring due to adverse influence by the operating environment, such
as temperature, humidity, dust, dirt and vibration, changes in the parts with time, service life, and other
factors.
5.3.1 Precautions for maintenance and inspection
For some shor t time after the power is s witched of f , a high voltage r emains in the smoothing capac itor . When
access ing the inverter for inspection, switch power off. When more than 10 m inutes have elaps ed, mak e sur e
that the voltage across the main circuit terminals P-N of the inverter is 30VDC or less using a tester, etc.
5.3.2 Check items
(1) Daily inspections
Check the following:
1) Motor operation fault
2) Improper installation environment
3) Cooling system fault
4) Unusual vibration and noise
5) Unusual overheating and discoloration
During operation, check the inverter input voltages using a tester.
(2) Cleaning
Always run the inverter in a clean state.
When cleaning the inverter, gently wipe dirty areas with a soft cloth immersed in neutral detergent or ethanol.
Note: Do not use solvent, such as acetone, benzene, toluene and alcohol, as they will cause the inverter
surface paint to peel off.
Do not use detergent or alcohol to clean the display and other sections of the operation panel (FR-
DU04) or parameter unit (FR-PU04) as these sections do not like them.
5.3.3 Periodic inspection
Check the areas inaccessible during operation and requiring periodic inspection. For periodic inspection,
consult us.
1) Cooling system:.....................Clean the air filter, etc.
2) Screws and bolts:..................These parts may become loose due to vibration, temperature changes, etc.
Check that they are tightened securely and retighten as necessary.
3) Conductors and insulating materials: Check for corrosion and damage.
4) Insulation resistance: Measure.
5) Cooling fan, smoothing capacitor, relay: Check and change if necessary.
PROTECTIVE FUNCTIONS

5.3.6 Replacement of parts
The inverter consists of many electronic parts such as semiconductor devices.
The following parts may deteriorate with age because of their structures or physical characteristics, leading to
reduced performance or failure of the inverter. For preventive maintenance, the parts must be changed
periodically.
(1) Cooling fan
The cooling fan cools heat-generating parts such as the main circuit semiconductor devices. The life of the
cooling fan bearing is usually 10,000 to 35,000 hours. Hence, the cooling fan must be changed every 2 to 3
years if the inver ter is r un continuously. When unus ual noise and/or vibration is notic ed during ins pection, the
cooling fan must be changed immediately.
z
Removal
1) Push the catches from above and remove the fan cover.
2) Disconnect the fan connector(s).
3) Remove the fan.
z
Reinstallation
1) After confir ming the orientation of the f an, reins tall the f an s o that the
arrow on the left of "AIR FLOW" faces up.
AIR FLOW
<Fan side face>
2) Reconnect the fan connectors.
When wiring, use care to avoid the cables being caught by the fan.
3) Reinstall the fan cover.

PROTECTIVE FUNCTIONS

(2) Smoothing capacitors
A large-capacity aluminum electrolytic capacitor is used for smoothing the DC in the main circuit, and an
aluminum electrolytic capacitor is also used for stabilizing the control power in the control circuit. Their
characteristics are adversely affected by ripple current, etc. When the inverter is operated in an ordinary, air-
conditioned environment, change the capacitors about every 5 years. When 5 years have elapsed, the
capacitors will deteriorate more rapidly.
Check the capacitors at least every year (less than six months if their life will be expired soon).
Check the following:
1) Case (side faces and bottom face for expansion)
2) Sealing plate (for remarkable warping and extreme cracks)
3) Explosion-proof valve (for excessive valve expansion and operation)
4) Appearance, external cracks, discolor ation, leak age. When the measur ed c apacitanc e of the c apac itor has
reduced below 85% of the rating, change the capacitor.
(3) Relays
To prevent a contact fault, etc., relays must be changed according to the number of accumulative switching
times (switching life).
See the following table for the inverter parts replacement guide. Lamps and other short-life parts must also be
changed during periodic inspection.
Replacement Parts of the Inverter
Part Name Standard Replacement I nterval Description

Smoothing capaci tor in mai n circuit 5 years Change (as requi red)
Smoothing capaci tor on control board 5 years Change the board (as required)
Relays  Change as required
5.3.7 Inverter replacement
The inverter can be changed with the control circuit wiring kept connected. Before replacement, remove the
screws in the wiring cover of the inverter.
1) Remove the mounting screws in both ends of the control circuit terminal block.
2) With both hands, pull down the terminal block from the back of the control circuit terminals.
3) When installing the terminal bloc k to a new inverter, exer cis e c are not to bend the pins of the c ontrol c irc uit
terminal block connector.

5.3.8 Measurement of main circuit voltages, currents and power
z Measurement of voltages and currents
Since the voltages and currents on the inverter power supply and output sides include harmonics,
accurate measurement depends on the instruments used and circuits measured.

Appendix 3 Operating the Invert er Usi ng a S ingle-Phase Power Suppl y
Appendix 3 Operating the Inverter Using a Single-Phase Power Supply
If a single-phase power supply is used to operate the inverter only 4 of the 6 of the diodes will be used.
Therefore the ripple current of the capacitor will increase when compared to operation from a three-phase
power supply, resulting in a higher temper ature rise of the conver ter and the capac itor. Operating the inverter
using a single-phase power supply requies derating of the output current.

(Note 1) The maximum output voltage cannot exceed the power supply voltage. The maximum output
voltage may be set as desired below supply voltage.
(Note 2) The power supply capacity changes with the values of power supply side inverter impedance
(including those of the input reactor and cables).
y
Cautions on operating the inverter using single-phase power supply
(1)Connect the single-phase power supply to the terminals R and S of the inverter.
(2)If the capacity of the power s upply is insuff icient, the output voltage will become uns table under changing
load conditions. Therefore, be certain the power supply is adequate.
