 G7 Drive
1/2 - 500 HP
This innovative drive utilizes 3 level control to offer the best solution for challenging installations.
Yaskawa is the only manufacturer to offer a low voltage drive with this architecture. 3 level technology
minimizes drive induced problems associated with long motor cables and premature motor bearing
failures. In addition, overall electrical noise is greatly reduced, resulting in the most problem free
installations. Not only does the Yaskawa G7 deliver this exclusive advantage, but it also provides high
flexibility and excellent vector performance for control of speed, torque, and position, available in ratings
through 500HP.

Feature Highlights:
This amazing AC drive is the ultimate performance solution with increased speed and torque response
to provide servo-like performance from an induction motor. In addition, the G7 drive includes the worlds
first Inverter architecture that eliminates or minimizes the installation problems associated with IGBT
switching on 480 volt systems and protects the entire motor-drive system.
G7 drive performance makes it the ideal drive for high performance speed, torque, or position control
applications. Several control modes are provided. In open loop vector mode, the latest flux observer
algorithms extend speed range and provide maximum starting torque. In closed loop vector mode,
0.01% speed regulation and 1000:1 control range can be achieved. Zero-servo capability provides
position control at zero speed.
The G7 drive has the worlds first 480V 3-Level Inverter architecture for total system protection. This
patented 3-Level architecture can eliminate peripheral components typically required to solve
installation problems sometimes encountered on 480 volt systems. The G7 allows motor operation at
very long cable lengths, meeting NEMA MG1 Part 31, with peak voltage being 30% less than
conventional. With motor bearing current being typically 50% less than standard inverters, the G7
provides four times the motor bearing life. Audible motor noise on the 480 volt G7 drive is 5-10 dB
(20%) less than the prior generation drive, even when operating at half the carrier frequency. Common
mode current is half that of conventional drives. The G7 power section includes built-in bus choke (most
ratings), 12-pulse input capability (most ratings), common DC bus capability, and regeneration options.
The G7 drive has three autotuning methods to optimize motor control, including the new static
autotuning which does not require load decoupling nor motor rotation. The LCD operator displays 5
lines x 16 characters, in any of 7 languages. The keypad is intuitive and includes memory for parameter
settings, making it easy to transfer settings from one drive to another. To further aid in parameter
management, DriveWizard software for the PC is available at no charge, for upload, download,
archiving, trending, and graphing.
The G7 drive has a large programming feature set to handle sophisticated industrial applications. If the
standard feature set does not meet your specific requirement, the G7 can be programmed using
DriveWorksEZ. This is a PC-based, object-oriented, graphical icon programming tool that is friendly
to the user. The drive firmware can also be modified by custom or prewritten application-specific
modules such as Motion Control or Electronic Lineshaft.
 The G7 drive supports the industrys preference for open network architecture and connectivity with
network choices such as DeviceNet, Profibus-DP, Ethernet, and others.
The G7 is not intended for the simple, routine AC drive application, it is for the challenges. The G7 drive
offers the ultimate performance, the best system protection, and the most flexible configurations of any
drive available.
