  • Page 2: Safety Precautions

    E6581386 I. Safety precautions The items described in these instructions and on the inverter itself are very important so that you can use the inverter safely prevent injury to yourself and other people around you as well as prevent damage to property in the area. Thoroughly familiarize yourself with the symbols and indications shown below and then continue to read the manual.
  • Page 3: General Operation

    E6581386 General Operation Danger Reference • Never disassemble, modify or repair. This can result in electric shock, fire and injury. For repairs, call your sales agency. Disassembly prohibited • Never remove the front cover when power is on or open door if enclosed in a cabinet. The unit contains many high voltage parts and contact with them will result in electric shock.
  • Page 4 1.4.4 Operation cannot be stopped immediately by the inverter alone, thus risking an accident or injury. • All options used must be those specified by Toshiba. The use of any other option may result in an accident. 1.4.4 Caution Reference •...
  • Page 5 E6581386 Wiring Danger Reference • Do not connect input power to the output (motor side) terminals (U/T1,V/T2,W/T3). That will destroy the inverter and may result in fire. • Do not connect resistors to the DC terminals (between PA/+ and PC/-, or between PO and PC/-).
  • Page 6 E6581386 Operations Danger Reference • Do not touch inverter terminals when electrical power is applied to the inverter even if the motor is stopped. Touching the inverter terminals while power is connected to it may result in electric shock. • Do not touch switches when thands are wet and do not try to clean the inverter with a damp cloth.
  • Page 7: Maintenance And Inspection

    E6581386 Maintenance and inspection Danger Reference • Never replace any part by yourself. 14.2 This could be a cause of electric shock, fire and bodily injury. To replace parts, call the local sales agency. Prohibited • The equipment must be inspected every day. If the equipment is not inspected and maintained, errors and malfunctions may not be discovered which could lead to accidents.

  • Page 24: Grounding Capacitor Switching Method

    E6581386 1.3.3 Grounding capacitor switching method The inverter is grounded through a capacitor. The leakage current from the inverter can be reduced using the selector switch, switching bar or switching screw (depending on the model) on the main circuit terminal board. This switching device is used to detach the capacitor from the grounding circuit or to reduce its capacitance.

  • Page 28: Notes On The Application

    Comparisons with commercial power operation The VF-PS1 Inverter employs the sinusoidal PWM system to supply the motor. This is why compared to operation with a commercial power there will be a slight increase in motor temperature, noise and vibration. The main supply voltage and current will also be distorted due to harmonic distortion while increase the line current.
  • Page 29 E6581386 Method of lubricating load mechanisms Operating an oil-lubricated reduction gear and gear motor in the low-speed areas will worsen the lubricating effect. Check with the manufacturer to find out about operable speed range. Low loads and low inertia loads The motor may demonstrate instability such as abnormal vibrations or overcurrent trips at light loads of 50% or under of the rated load, or when the load's moment of inertia is extremely small.
  • Page 30: Inverters

    E6581386 In circuit configuration 1, the brake is turned on and off through MC2 and MC3. If the circuit is configured in some other way, the overcurrent trip may be activated because of the locked rotor current when the brake goes into operation.
  • Page 31: What To Do About The Leak Current

    E6581386 There is no fuse in the inverter's main circuit. Thus, as the diagram above shows, when more than one inverter is used on the same power line, you must select interrupting characteristics so that only the MCCB2 will trip and the MCCB1 will not trip when a short occurs in the inverter (INV1).
  • Page 32 E6581386 (2) Affects of leakage current across supply lines Thermal relay inverter Power supply Leakage current path across wires (1) Thermal relays The high frequency component of current leaking into electrostatic capacity between inverter output wires will increase the effective current values and make externally connected thermal relays operate improperly. If the motor cables are more than 50m long, external thermal relay may operate improperly with models having motors of low rated current, especially the 400V class low capacity (3.7kW or less) models, because the leakage current will be high in proportion to the motor rating.
  • Page 33: Installation

    E6581386 1.4.4 Installation Installation environment The VF-PS1 Inverter is an electronic control instrument. Take full consideration to installing it in the proper operating environment. Danger • Do not place any inflammable substances near the VF-PS1 Inverter. If an accident occurs in which flames are emitted, this could lead to fire.
  • Page 34 Please consult with your supplier about these measures. • If the VF-PS1 Inverter is installed near any of the equipment listed below, provide measures to insure against errors in operation. Solenoids: Attach surge suppressor on coil. Brakes: Attach surge suppressor on coil.
  • Page 35 E6581386 Install the inverter in a well-ventilated indoor place and mount it on a flat metal plate in portrait orientation. If you are installing more than one inverter, the separation between inverters should be at least 5cm, and they should be arranged in horizontal rows.

  • Page 37 E6581386 Calorific values of the inverter and the required ventilation The energy loss when the inverter converts power from AC to DC and then back to AC is about 5%. In order to suppress the rise in temperature inside the cabinet when this loss becomes heat loss, the interior of the cabinet must be ventilated and cooled.
  • Page 38 E6581386 Panel designing taking into consideration the effects of noise The inverter generates high frequency noise. When designing the control panel setup, consideration must be given to that noise. Examples of measures are given below. • Wire so that the main circuit wires and the control circuit wires are separated. Do not place them in the same conduit, do not run them parallel, and do not bundle them.
  • Page 39: Connection Equipment

    E6581386 2. Connection equipment Danger • Never disassemble, modify or repair. This can result in electric shock, fire and injury. For repairs, call your sales agency. Disassembly prohibited • Don't stick your fingers into openings such as cable wiring hole and cooling fan covers. This can result in electric shock or other injury.
  • Page 40 Control and main power supply The control power supply and the main circuit power supply for the VF-PS1 are the same. If a malfunction or trip causes the main circuit to be shut off, control power will also be shut off.

  • Page 52 E6581386 Sink logic/source logic (When inverter's internal power supply is used) Current flowing out turns control input terminals on. These are called sink logic terminals. The method generally used in Europe is source logic in which current flowing into the input terminal turns it on. Sink logic terminals and source logic terminals are sometimes referred to as negative logic terminals and positive logic terminals, respectively.
  • Page 53 E6581386 Sink logic/source logic (When an external power supply is used) The P24/PLC terminal is used to connect to an external power supply or to insulate a terminal from other input or output terminals. Use the slide switch SW1 to switch between sink logic and source logic configurations. Note that the PWR terminal is designed for safety purposes to work always in source logic mode, regardless of the setting of SW1.

To be more specific, in order for the system to satisfy the following safety standards, it needs to be configured, as shown on the next page, with the power removal terminal of the VFPS1 inverter (PWR terminal on the control terminal board) so that it will coast or decelerate to a stop in the event of a failure.

    E6581386 10. Selection of peripheral devices Danger • When using the inverter without the front cover, be sure to place the inverter unit inside a cabinet. If they are used outside the cabinet, it may cause electric shock. Mandatory • Be sure to ground every unit. If not, it may cause electric shock or fire on the occasion of failure, short-circuit or electric leak.
