Special Precautions
Radio interference
The main circuit of the inverter contains a harmonic component and may
interfere with communications equipment such as AM radios if these are used
nearby. The amount of radio interference depends on the field strength in the
area where the inverter is used. While it is difficult to completely eliminate radio
interference, it may be reduced by changing the angle of your radio antenna,
using a noise filter with the inverter, housing the inverter in a metallic shield box,
or routing inverter cables in metal conduit.
8
The inverter will be damaged if the power supply voltage is applied to
its output terminals.
Applying power to the U, V or W output terminal
will damage the inverter. Check for miswiring of
power and control circuit of the application system.
Never apply a voltage that exceeds the voltage
limitations of the inverter.

Main Circuit Wiring
! ATTENTION
● Always confirm that the input power is OFF before starting wiring.
Failure to do so could lead to electric shock or fire.
● Always connect the earth lead.
Failure to do so could lead to electric shock or fire.
● Wiring work must be carried out by a qualified technician.
Failure to do so could lead to electric shock or fire.
● Always install the unit before wiring.
Failure to do so could lead to electric shock or fire.
! ATTENTION
● Do not connect an AC power supply to the output terminals (U/T1, V/T2,
W/T3). Doing so could lead to injury or fire.
● Confirm that the product's rated voltage and the AC power supply voltage
match.
Failure to do so could lead to injury or fire.
● Do not connect a braking resistor other than the braking resistor designated
by MEW (exclusive option) to the braking resistor terminals (DB+. DB–).
Doing so could lead to fire.
● Tighten the terminal screws to the designated tightening torque.
Failure to do so could lead to overheating or fire.
■ Precautions
Note the following points carefully to prevent miswiring and misuse of the
inverter.
1. Connect the power supply to input terminals (R/L1, S/L2, T/L3) and the
motor to output terminals (U/T1, V/T2, W/T3).
2. Do not connect anything other than the optional brake resistor across
terminals DB+ and DB– (5.5, 7.5, 11kW). Never short these terminals to
each other as this will damage the internal electronics of the inverter.
3. Use sleeved crimp terminal lugs for power supply and motor
connections.
4. After terminating power cables double check for tightness as access will
be limited once control circuit wiring is in place.
5. When connecting the inverter directly to a large-capacity transformer
(500 kVA or more), be sure to use the optional power factor correcting
reactor in the input circuit of the inverter.
6. Select peripheral devices and wire size according to the table on page
19.

Control Circuit Wiring
■ Wiring
Terminal Nos. 1 to 4 are used to set the frequency with remote operation.
(Set parameter No. 09 to external)
Terminal Nos. 3 and 5 are the output frequency value voltage signal output terminals.
(See parameter Nos. 59 and 60)
• SW4
When SW4 is ON, the inverter will run with the 2nd BASE FREQUENCY (parameter
No.43), 2nd DC BOOST LEVEL (parameter No.44) and
ACCELERATION/DECELERATION TIME 2 (parameter Nos. 37 and 38) set data.
Note that there will be no change when the acceleration/deceleration time is fixed with
SW1, 2 and 3.
Note : Terminal No. 3 and 6 (COM) are not connected to each other and should be kept
separate as one is analogue and one is digital.
20
■ Cautions
1. Use shielded cables for all control signal
wiring and keep them more than 20 cm
from power wiring.
2. Maximum allowable signal line length is
30 meters. 4.7kΩ
3. Drive control inputs are high impedence,
low voltage and as such the use of good
quality relay/push-buttons is recommend-
ed as current drawn by these terminals is 24V
low.
COM
4. No-voltage contact signal or open-
collector outputs signal should be used
with control terminals. 10 to 16. (If a Freewheel diode
voltage signal is applied across these
terminals, the internal electronics may be
e.g. 24V
damaged.) power
* Input circuit schematics are shown on supply
right. Take special care to avoid loop
or leakage current.
5. When an inductive load is to be driven by
an open-collector output, be sure to use a
freewheel diode.

Switching between Manual and
Automatic Frequency Setting Signal
● When inputting the frequency setting signal from an external source, it can
be switched easily between a "potentiometer signal (manual)" and "voltage/
current signal (automatic)" by using a switch.
This is effective for feeding back the frequency setting signal as a voltage/
current signal from a sensor (temperature, pressure) and switching to the
manual frequency setting potentiometer signal and automatic control
signal required for the "adjustment, inspection and forced control" required
when automatically controlling the inverter such as for fan and pump
applications.

characteristics.
3. If the base frequency must be changed together with the maximum output frequency
for a high-speed exclusive motor, etc., change parameter No.16 with the procedure
given above.
4. If the general purpose motor is to be run with a frequency higher than the commercial
frequency, set the base frequency to the normal motor rated frequency (50 or 60Hz).
5. The motor will enter the rated output characteristics, and the generated torque will drop
in inverse proportion to the frequency when above the base frequency (normally 50 or
60Hz).
56
Setting Maximum Output Voltage
● Maximum output voltage at the base frequency can be programmed with Parameter 62.
When the power supply voltage fluctuation is too large or the power supply voltage exceeds
the motor's rated voltage, set maximum output voltage below the power supply voltage to
stabilize the output voltage.

The inverter is mainly configured of semiconductor elements. Thus, daily inspections must be
carried out to prevent the effect of the working environment such as the temperature, humidity,
dust and vibration, and to prevent other trouble that occurs due to the passage of part usage and
part life.
The standard replacement years that apply when the inverter is used a general environment
(ambient average annual temperature 30°C, load rate of 80% or less, and 12 working hours or
less a day) are given on the next page.

Inspection items
(1) Daily inspection
Check that the inverter is operating as intended.
Check the input and output voltages of the inverter during operation using a voltmeter.
(2) Periodic inspection
Check all locations where inspection can only be performed when the inverter is stopped.
Parts replacement
The lifetime is greatly dependent on the installation conditions.
For example:
a) The lifetime of a relay depends on the wear condition of its contact surfaces. The contact
current and load inductance are major factors.
b) The capacitor inside the inverter is used mainly as a smoothing filter and its lifetime varies
greatly with temperature as internal chemical reactions take place.
An aluminum electrolytic capacitor has Arrhenius law characteristics (10°C doubling law);
the lifetime is 50% when the temperature rises 10°C, or the lifetime is 200% when the
temperature is reduced 10°C. The lifetime of the inverter is therefore determined by
temperature.
If the inverter is used at high temperatures, the aluminum electrolytic capacitor may wear
out even though other parts remain normal. In this case, the aluminum electrolytic
capacitor must be replaced to keep the inverter working.
