The D7h and D8h adjustable frequency drives (D2h plus
options cabinet), include a 7.87 in [200 mm] pedestal for
floor mounting.
There is a safety latch on the front cover of the options
cabinet. If the adjustable frequency drive is supplied with a
line power disconnect or circuit breaker, the safety latch
prevents the cabinet door from being opened while the
adjustable frequency drive is energized. Before opening
the door of the adjustable frequency drive, the disconnect
or circuit breaker must be opened (to de-energize the
adjustable frequency drive) and the cover of the options
cabinet must be removed.
For adjustable frequency drives purchased with a
disconnect, contactor or circuit breaker, the nameplate
label includes a type code for a replacement that does not
include the option. If there is a problem with the
adjustable frequency drive, it is replaced independent of
the options.
Refer to 2.7 Optional Equipment for more detailed
descriptions of the input options and other options that
may be added to the adjustable frequency drive.

1.4 Product Overview

An adjustable frequency drive is an electronic motor
controller that converts AC line power input into a variable
AC waveform output. The frequency and voltage of the
output are regulated to control the motor speed or torque.
The adjustable frequency drive can vary the speed of the
motor in response to system feedback, such as position
sensors on a conveyor belt. The adjustable frequency drive
can also regulate the motor by responding to remote
commands from external controllers.
In addition, the adjustable frequency drive monitors the
system and motor status, issues warnings or alarms for
fault conditions, starts and stops the motor, optimizes
energy efficiency, and offers many more control,
monitoring, and efficiency functions. Operation and
monitoring functions are available as status indications to
an outside control system or serial communication
network.
