Protecting the
motor
If the power transmission mechanism uses an oil-lubricated
gearbox or speed changer/reducer, then continuous motor
operation at low speed may cause poor lubrication. Avoid
such operation.
It is necessary to take special measures suitable for this
motor type. Contact IMO for details.
Single-phase motors are not suitable for inverter-driven
variable speed operation. Use three-phase motors.
* Even if a single-phase power supply is available, use a
three-phase motor as the inverter provides three-phase
output.
Use the inverter within the ambient temperature range from
-10 to +50 C.
The heat sink and braking resistor of the inverter may be-
come hot under certain operating conditions, so install the
inverter on nonflammable material such as metal.
Ensure that the installation location meets the environmental
conditions specified in Chapter 2, Section 2.1 "Operating
Environment."
Install a recommended molded case circuit breaker (MCCB)
or residual-current-operated protective device (RCD)/earth
leakage circuit breaker (ELCB) (with the exception of those
exclusively designed for protection from ground faults) in the
primary circuit of the inverter to protect the wiring. Ensure that
the circuit breaker capacity is equivalent to or lower than the
recommended capacity.
If a magnetic contactor (MC) is mounted in the inverter's
secondary circuit for switching the motor to commercial
power or for any other purpose, ensure that both the inverter
and the motor are completely stopped before you turn the MC
on or off.
Do not connect a magnet contactor fitted with a surge sup-
pressor to the inverter's secondary circuit.
Do not turn the magnetic contactor (MC) in the primary circuit
on or off more than once an hour as an inverter fault may
result.
If frequent starts or stops are required during motor opera-
tion, use FWD/REV signals or the RUN/STOP key.
The electronic thermal function of the inverter can protect the
motor. The operation level and the motor type (gen-
eral-purpose motor, inverter motor) should be set. For
high-speed motors or water-cooled motors, set a small value
for the thermal time constant and protect the motor.
If you connect the motor thermal relay to the motor with a
long wire, a high-frequency current may flow into the wiring
stray capacitance. This may cause the relay to trip at a cur-
rent lower than the set value for the thermal relay. If this
happens, lower the carrier frequency or use the output circuit
filter (OFL).
