12.1 Inverter Application Precautions

12.1.1 Selection

J

Inverter Capacity

When connecting special motors or multiple motors in parallel to an Inverter, select the Inverter capacity so

that the rated output current of the Inverter is 1.1 times the sum of all the motor rated currents.

J

Initial Torque

The startup and acceleration characteristics of the motor are restricted by the overload current ratings of the

Inverter that is driving the motor. The torque characteristics are generally less than those required when starting

using a normal commercial power supply. If a large initial torque is required, select an Inverter with a somewhat

larger capacity or increase the capacity of both the motor and the inverter.

J

Emergency Stop

Although the Inverter’s protective functions will stop operation when a fault occurs, the motor will not stop

immediately. Always provide mechanical stop and protection mechanisms on equipment requiring an emer-

gency stop.

J

Options

Terminals © and ¨1 are for connecting only the options specifically provided by Yaskawa. Never connect

any other devices to these terminals.

12.1.2 Settings

J

Upper Limits

The Digital Operator can be used to set high-speed operation up to a maximum of 150 Hz. Incorrect settings

can be dangerous. Use the maximum frequency setting functions to set upper limits. (The maximum output

frequency is factory-set to 60 Hz.)

J

DC Injection Braking

The motor can overheat if the DC injection braking voltage or braking time is set to a large value.

J

Acceleration/Deceleration Times

The motor’s acceleration and deceleration times are determined by the torque generated by the motor, the load

torque, and the load’s inertial moment (GD

2

/4). If the stall prevention functions are activated during accelera-

tion or deceleration, increase the acceleration or deceleration time. The stall prevention functions will increase

the acceleration or deceleration time by the amount of time the stall prevention function is active.
To reduce the acceleration or deceleration times, increase the capacity of the motor and Inverter.

12.1.3 Handling

J

Wiring Check

The Inverter will be internally damaged if the power supply voltage is applied to output terminal U, V, or W.

Check wring for any mistakes before supplying power. Check all wiring and sequences carefully.

J

Inspections

The internal capacitors in the Inverter require time to discharge after the power supply is turned OFF. Do not

start inspections until the CHARGE indicator goes out.
