September 2006 Cautions The SPI9000 inverter is meant for fixed installations only. Do not perform any measurements when the inverter is connected to the DC supply. After having disconnected the inverter from the DC supply, wait until the fan stops and the indicators on the keypad go out (if no keypad is attached see the indicator through the keypad base).

SPI9000 Inverter Unit FI9 – FI14 User Manual Grounding and ground fault protection The SPI9000 inverter must always be grounded with a ground conductor connected to the ground terminal. The ground fault protection inside the inverter only protects the inverter against ground faults in the motor or the motor cable.
® Cutler-Hammer SPI9000 Inverter Units from Eaton’s electrical business have undergone scrupulous tests and quality checks at the factory before they are delivered to the customer. However, after unpacking the product, check that no sign of transportation damage is to be found on the product and that the delivery is complete (compare the type designation of the product to the code below, see Table 1-1 ).
It may also be necessary to check the tightening torques of terminals at certain intervals. Technical Data Figure 1-1 presents the block diagram of the SPI9000 inverter. The inverter mechanically consists of two units, the Power Unit and the Control Unit.
