  • Page 30: Enclosure Design

    Enclosure design Installation Enclosure design When an inverter enclosure is to be designed and manufactured, heat generated by contained equipment, etc., the environment of an operating place, and others must be fully considered to determine the enclosure structure, size and equipment layout. The inverter unit uses many semiconductor devices.
  • Page 31 If the inverter is exposed to corrosive gas or to salt near a beach, the printed board patterns and parts will corrode or the relays and switches will result in poor contact. In such places, take the measures against dust, dirt, oil mist. FR-A700 EC 2 - 7...
  • Page 32 Enclosure design Installation Explosive, flammable gases As the inverter is non-explosion proof, it must be contained in an explosion proof enclosure. In places where explosion may be caused by explosive gas, dust or dirt, an enclosure cannot be used unless it structurally complies with the guidelines and has passed the specified tests. This makes the enclosure itself expensive (including the test charges).

    Enclosure design Installation 2.4.3 Heatsink protrusion attachment (FR-A7CN) When encasing the inverter in an enclosure, the generated heat amount in an enclosure can be greatly reduced by installing the heatsink portion of the inverter outside the enclosure. When in- stalling the inverter in a compact enclosure, etc., this installation method is recommended. For the FR-A740-00023 to 03610, a heatsink can be protruded outside the enclosure using a heatsink protrusion attachment (FR-A7CN).

In the connection earthed-neutral system, the sensitivity current is purified against an earth fault in the inverter output side.

    Operation Precautions for use of the inverter The FR-A700 series is a highly reliable product, but incorrect peripheral circuit making or op- eration/handling method may shorten the product life or damage the product. Before starting operation, always recheck the following items.
  • Page 106 Precautions for use of the inverter Operation ● A short circuit or earth fault on the inverter output side may damage the inverter modules. – Fully check the insulation resistance of the circuit prior to inverter operation since repeated short circuits caused by peripheral circuit inadequacy or an earth fault caused by wiring inadequacy or reduced motor insulation resistance may damage the inverter modules.
