4. Store within a relative humidity range of 0% to 90% and non-condensing environment. Do
not turn off the air conditioner and have exsiccator for it.

5.15 Affecting Other Machines

AC motor drive may affect the operation of other machine due to many reasons. The solutions are as
follows.

High Harmonic at Power Side

If there is high harmonic at power side during running, the improved methods are:
1. Separate power system: use transformer for AC motor drive.
2. Use reactor at the power input terminal of AC motor drive or decrease high harmonic by
multiple circuit.
3. If there is phase lead capacitor, it should use serial reactor to prevent capacitor damage
from high harmonic.

Motor Temperature Rises

When the motor is induction motor with ventilation-cooling-type used in variety speed
operation, bad cooling will happen in the low speed. Therefore, it may overheat. Besides,
high harmonic is in output waveform to increase copper loss and iron loss. Following
measures should be used by load situation and operation range when necessary.
1. Use the motor with independent power ventilation or increase the horsepower.
2. Use inverter duty motor.
3. Do NOT run in the low speed
