(2) Notes on earthing (grounding)
• Leakage currents flow in the inverter. To prevent an electric shock, the inverter and motor must be earthed (grounded). This
inverter must be earthed (grounded). Earthing (Grounding) must conform to the requirements of national and local safety
regulations and electrical codes. (JIS, NEC section 250, IEC 536 class 1 and other applicable standards)
• Use the dedicated earth (ground) terminal to earth (ground) the inverter.
(Do not use the screw in the casing, chassis, etc.)
• Use the thickest possible earth (ground) cable. Use the cable whose size is equal to or greater than that indicated in page
15, 16, and minimize the cable length. The earthing (grounding) point should be as near as possible to the inverter.
To be compliant with the European Directive (Low Voltage Directive),
according to the instructions on page 182.
(3) Total wiring length
The overall wiring length for connection of a single motor or multiple motors should be within the value in the table below.
(The wiring length should be 100m maximum for vector control.)
Pr. 72 PWM frequency selection setting
(carrier frequency)
2 (2kHz) or less
3 to 15 (3kHz to 14.5kHz)
When driving a 400V class motor by the inverter, surge voltages attributable to the wiring constants may occur at the
motor terminals, deteriorating the insulation of the motor.
Take the following measures (1) or (2) in this case.
(1) Use a "400V class inverter-driven insulation-enhanced motor" and set frequency in Pr. 72 PWM frequency selection
according to wiring length
Carrier frequency
(2) Connect the surge voltage suppression filter (FR-ASF-H) to the 55K or less and the sine wave filter (MT-BSL/BSC) to
the 75K or more on the inverter output side.
CAUTION
· Especially for long-distance wiring, the inverter may be affected by a charging current caused by the stray capacitances of the
wiring, leading to a malfunction of the overcurrent protective function or fast response current limit function or a malfunction or fault
of the equipment connected on the inverter output side. If fast-response current limit function malfunctions, disable this function.
(For Pr. 156 Stall prevention operation selection, refer to
· For details of Pr. 72 PWM frequency selection , refer to
(MT-BSL/BSC) for the 75K or more, set "25" (2.5kHz) in Pr. 72.)
For explanation of surge voltage suppression filter (FR-ASF-H) and sine wave filter (MT-BSL/BSC), refer to the manual of each
option.
· Do not perform vector control with a surge voltage suppression filter (FR-ASF-H) or sine wave filer (MT-BSL/BSC) connected.
(4) Cable size of the control circuit power supply (terminal R1/L11, S1/L21)
· Terminal screw size: M4
