Page 32
Peripheral Devices ! Countermeasures • If the carrier frequency setting is high, decrease the carrier frequency (Pr. 72) of the inverter. Note that motor noise increases. • Using earth leakage circuit breakers designed for harmonic and surge suppression in the inverter's own line and other line, operation can be performed with the carrier frequency kept high (with low noise).
Page 33
Peripheral Devices (3) Selecting the rated sensitivity current for the earth (ground) leakage breaker CAUTION •On the power receiving side, install a no-fuse breaker (NFB) to protect the primary wiring of the inverter. Selection of NFB depends on the power supply side power factor (which changes with the power supply voltage, output frequency and load) of the inverter.
Page 34
Peripheral Devices CAUTION •The earth (ground) leakage circuit breaker should be installed to the primary (power supply) side of the inverter. •In the connection neutral point grounding system, the sensitivity current becomes worse for earth (ground) faults in the inverter secondary side. Hence, the protective earthing (grounding) of the load equipment should be 10Ω...
Peripheral Devices 1.10.3 Power-off and magnetic contactor (MC) (1) Inverter's primary side magnetic contactor (MC) On the inverter's primary side, it is recommended to provide an MC for the following purposes (refer to page 22 for selection): 1) To release the inverter from the power supply when the inverter's protective function is activated or when the drive is not functioning (e.g.
Peripheral Devices 1.10.4 Regarding the installation of the power factor improving reactor When the inverter is installed near a large-capacity power transformer (500kVA or more at the wiring length of 10m or less) or the power capacitor is to be switched, an excessive peak current will flow in the power supply input circuit, damaging the converter circuit.
Peripheral Devices 1.10.5 Regarding noises and the installation of the noise filter Some noises enter the inverter causing it to malfunction and others are generated by the inverter causing peripheral devices to malfunction. Though the inverter is designed to be insusceptible to noises, it handles low-level signals, so it requires the following general countermeasures to be taken.
Peripheral Devices 1.10.6 Power harmonics The inverter may generate power harmonics from its converter circuit to affect the power generator, power capacitor, etc. Power harmonics are different from noise and leakage currents in source, frequency band and transmission path. Take the following suppression techniques.

Errors (Alarms) 6.1 Errors (Alarms) If any fault has occurred in the inverter, the corresponding protective function is activated to bring the inverter to an alarm stop and automatically give the corresponding error (alarm) indication on the PU display. If the fault does not correspond to any of the following errors or if you have any other problem, please contact your sales representative.
Errors (Alarms) 6.1.1 Error (alarm) definitions (1) Major failures When the protective function is activated, the inverter output is shut off and an alarm is output. Operation Panel FR-PU04 OC During Acc Indication Name Overcurrent shut-off during acceleration When the inverter output current reaches or exceeds approximately 200% Description of the rated inverter current during acceleration, the protective circuit is activated to stop the inverter output.

Errors (Alarms) Operation Panel FR-PU04 Motor Overload Indication Name Motor overload shut-off (electronic thermal overcurrent protection) (*1) The electronic overcurrent protection in the inverter detects motor overheat due to overload or reduced cooling capability during low-speed operation Description to stop the inverter output. When a multi-pole motor or two or more motors are run, provide a thermal relay in the output side of the inverter.

Errors (Alarms) Operation Panel FR-PU04 OH Fault Indication Name External thermal relay (*2) If the external thermal relay designed for motor overheat protection or the internally mounted temperature relay in the motor switches on (contacts Description open), the inverter output is stopped. If the relay contacts are reset automatically, the inverter will not restart unless it is reset.
Page 168
Errors (Alarms) Operation Panel FR-PU04 CPU Fault Indication Name CPU error If the arithmetic operation of the built-in CPU does not end within a Description predetermined period, the inverter self-determines it as an alarm and stops the output. Check point Corrective action Please contact your sales representative.

Errors (Alarms) Operation Panel FR-PU04 oL Indication Name Stall prevention (overvoltage) If the regenerative energy of the motor increases too much to During exceed the brake capability, this function stops the decrease Description in frequency to prevent overvoltage shut-off. As soon as the deceleration regenerative energy has reduced, deceleration resumes.
Errors (Alarms) 6.1.2 To know the operating status at the occurrence of alarm (Only when FR-PU04 is used) When any alarm has occurred, the display automatically switches to the indication of the corresponding protective function (error). By pressing the key at this point without resetting the inverter, the display shows the output frequency.
Troubleshooting 6.2 Troubleshooting POINT Check the corresponding areas. If the cause is still unknown, it is recommended to initialize the parameters (return to factory settings), re-set the required parameter values, and check again. 6.2.1 Motor remains stopped 1) Check the main circuit Check that a proper power supply voltage is applied (operation panel display is provided).
Troubleshooting 6.2.3 Speed greatly differs from the setting Check that the frequency setting signal is correct. (Measure the input signal level.) Check that the following parameter settings are correct (Pr. 1, Pr. 2). Check that the input signal lines are not affected by external noise. (Use of shielded cables) Check that the load is not too heavy.
Troubleshooting 6.2.8 Operation mode is not changed properly If the operation mode does not change correctly, check the following: 1. External input signal ...Check that the STF or STR signal is off. When it is on, the operation mode cannot be changed.
Precautions for Maintenance and Inspection 6.3 Precautions for Maintenance and Inspection The inverter is a static unit mainly consisting of semiconductor devices. Daily inspection must be performed to prevent any fault from occurring due to adverse influence of the operating environment, such as temperature, humidity, dust, dirt and vibration, changes in the parts with time, service life, and other factors.
Precautions for Maintenance and Inspection 6.3.4 Insulation resistance test using megger 1) Before performing the insulation resistance test using a megger on the external circuit, disconnect the cables from all terminals of the inverter so that the test voltage is not applied to the inverter. 2) For the continuity test of the control circuit, use a meter (high resistance range) and do not use the megger or buzzer.
