Yaskawa Electric Toep C710636 11E Z1000U Hvac Matrix Drive Quick Start Guide - YASKAWA Z1000U Series Quick Start Manual

i.1 Preface
Upper Limits
NOTICE: The drive is capable of running the motor up to 400 Hz. Be sure to set the upper limit for the frequency of the drive to prevent the
possible danger of accidentally operating equipment at higher than rated speed. The default setting for the maximum output frequency is
60 Hz.
DC Injection Braking
NOTICE: Excessive current during DC Injection Braking and excessive duration of DC Injection Braking can cause motor overheat.
Acceleration/Deceleration Times
Acceleration and deceleration times are affected by the amount of torque generated by the motor, the load torque, and the
moment of inertia. Set a longer accel/decel time when Stall Prevention is enabled. The accel/decel times are lengthened for
as long as the Stall Prevention function is in operation. Install one of the available braking options or increase the capacity of
the drive for faster acceleration and deceleration.
General Handling
Wiring Check
NOTICE: Be sure to perform a final check of all sequence wiring and other connections before turning on the power and also check for short
circuits on the control terminals, which may damage the drive.
Selecting a Circuit Breaker or Circuit Interrupter
Yaskawa recommends installing a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) to the power supply side. The GFCI should be
designed for use with AC drives (e.g., Type B according to IEC/EN 60755).
Select a Molded Case Circuit Breaker (MCCB) or GFCI with a rated current 1.5 to 2 times higher than the drive rated current
to avoid nuisance trips caused by harmonics in the drive input current.
Magnetic Contactor Installation
WARNING! Fire Hazard. Shut off the drive with a magnetic contactor (MC) when a fault occurs in any external equipment such as braking
resistors. Failure to comply may cause resistor overheating, fire, and injury to personnel.
NOTICE: To get the full performance life out of the electrolytic capacitors and circuit relays, refrain from switching the drive power supply
off and on more than once every 30 minutes. Frequent use can damage the drive. Use the drive to stop and start the motor.
Inspection and Maintenance
WARNING! Electrical Shock Hazard. Capacitors in the drive do not immediately discharge after shutting off the power. Wait for at least the
amount of time specified on the drive before touching any components after shutting off the power. Failure to comply may cause injury to
personnel from electrical shock.
WARNING! Electrical Shock Hazard. When a drive is running a PM motor, voltage continues to be generated at the motor terminals after
the drive is shut off while the motor coasts to stop. Take the precautions described below to prevent shock and injury:
∙ In applications where the machine can still rotate after the drive has fully stopped a load, install a switch to the drive output side to disconnect
the motor and the drive.
∙ Do not allow an external force to rotate the motor beyond the maximum allowable speed or to rotate the motor when the drive has been
shut off.
∙ Wait for at least the time specified on the warning label after opening the load switch on the output side before inspecting the drive or
performing any maintenance.
∙ Do not open and close the load switch while the motor is running.
∙ If the motor is coasting, make sure the power to the drive is turned on and the drive output has completely stopped before closing the load
switch.
WARNING! Burn Hazard. Because the heatsink can get very hot during operation, take proper precautions to prevent burns. When replacing
the cooling fan, shut off the power and wait at least 15 minutes to be sure that the heatsink has cooled down. Failure to comply may cause
burn injury to personnel.
Wiring
WARNING! Electrical Shock Hazard. Make sure the protective earthing conductor complies with technical standards and local safety
regulations. Because the leakage current exceeds 3.5 mA, IEC/EN 61800-5-1:2007 states that either the power supply must be automatically
disconnected in case of discontinuity of the protective earthing conductor or a protective earthing conductor with a cross-section of at least
2 2
10 mm (Cu) or 16 mm (Al) must be used. Failure to comply may cause death or serious injury.
All wire ends should use ring terminals for UL/cUL compliance. Use only the tools recommended by the terminal manufacturer
for crimping.
Transporting the Drive
NOTICE: Never steam clean the drive. During transport, keep the drive from coming into contact with salts, fluorine, bromine, phthalate
ester, and other such harmful chemicals.
