  • Page 4: Introduction

    Introduction ® The EZ VFD Series is a volts/Hz variable frequency drive for 3-phase, 230VAC inverter duty AC ® motors. The EZ VFD comes in two styles – open chassis for control panel installation, and a ® stand-alone NEMA 4X enclosed model. The EZ VFD is suited for both constant torque (ex: conveyor, auger) and variable torque (ex: fans, blowers and centrifugal pumps).

    JP1 Jumper JP1 – When set to READ the trimpots can be actively adjusted and tuned for the users specific application. Every trimpot can be adjusted and tested while running a motor. Once the drive has been tuned to the desired setting, those settings can be stored to memory and locked by moving the jumper to the STORE position.
  • Page 11: Decel' Trimpot

    'DECEL' Trimpot The adjustable range of DECEL is a linear .5 to 30 second ramp from 60 - 0Hz. The DECEL pot is factory set to approx 2 sec from 60-0Hz. A CCW adjustment will reduce the ramp time and a CW adjustment will increase the ramp time. Caution should be given to DECEL ramp times below 2 sec as this may result in an over current shutdowns.
  • Page 12: Boost' Trimpot

    'BOOST' Trimpot The BOOST trimpot allows the the motor to overcome sluggish response at low speed starts or high' startup loads by boosting the output. To increase the boost setting rotate the BOOST trimpot CW. To decrease the boost setting rotate the BOOST trimpot CCW. To determine if boost is required for your application, use the following setup method.
