Grounding Capacitor Switching Method - Toshiba VF-PS1 Instruction Manual

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.
Some models have capacitors that can be detached completely, while others have capacitors whose capacitances can
be reduced.
Note 1: Please note that, without the capacitor, the inverter does not comply with the EMC directive.
Note 2: When attaching or detaching the capacitor, be sure to turn off power.

Prohibited
*1: There are two places according to the
model.
⇒ For details, refer to Section 1.3.1.
If you are using an inverter with a capacity of 400V-3.7/4.0kW or less or with a capacity
between 400V-5.5kW and 400V-18.5kW, if the cables connecting the inverter to the motor is
100 m or more in length, and if the grounding capacitor is detached from the inverter, be
sure to set the carrier frequency (  ) at 4kHz or less. If the carrier frequency is set above
4kHz, internal parts of the inverter may overheat and become damaged.

Danger
Note: If you are using a 400V-3.7/4.0kW model or less or a model
with a capacity between 400V-5.5kW and 400V-18.5kW with it
connected to a motor through cables 100m or more in length,
you should set the carrier frequency (  ) at 4kHz or less when
pulling up the switch. Be sure to read the above precaution.
