hen, the current limiting
function works and the output frequency of the inverter automatically decreases. When the
output frequency matches the motor speed, the motor accelerates up to the original output
frequency. See the figure below. In this case, the instantaneous overcurrent limiting must be
enabled (H12 = 1).
Restart mode after momentary power failure (Allowable momentary power failure time)
(H16)
H16 specifies the maximum allowable duration (0.0 to 30.0 seconds) from an occurrence of a
momentary power failure (undervoltage) until the inverter is to be restarted. Specify the
coast-to-stop time during which the machine system and facility can be tolerated.
If the power is restored within the specified duration, the inverter restarts in the restart mode
specified by F14. If the power is restored after the specified duration, the inverter recognizes
that the power has been shut down so that it does not restart but starts (normal starting).
If H16 (Allowable momentary power failure time) is set to "999," restart will take place until the
DC link bus voltage drops down to the allowable voltage for restart after a momentary power
failure (50 V for 200 V class series and 100 V for 400 V class series). If the DC link bus voltage
drops below the allowable voltage, the inverter recognizes that the power has been shut down
so that it does not restart but starts (normal starting).
The time required from when the DC link bus voltage drops from the threshold of
undervoltage until it reaches the allowable voltage for restart after a momentary
power failure, greatly varies depending on the inverter capacity, the presence of
options, and other factors.
Auto-restart after momentary power failure (Restart time) (H13)
H13 specifies the time period from momentary power failure occurrence until the inverter
reacts for restarting process.
If the inverter starts the motor while motor’s residual voltage is still in a high level, a large
inrush current may flow or an overvoltage alarm may occur due to an occurrence of temporary
regeneration. For safety, therefore, it is advisable to set H13 to a certain level so tha restart
