„ Precautions for use
Driving a 460 V
general-purpose
motor
When driving a 460 V general-purpose motor with an inverter
using extremely long wires, damage to the insulation of the
motor may occur. Use an output circuit filter (OFL) if neces-
sary after checking with the motor manufacturer. Fuji motors
do not require the use of output circuit filters because of their
good insulation.
Torque charac-
teristics and
temperature rise
When the inverter is used to run a general-purpose motor, the
temperature of the motor becomes higher than when it is
operated using a commercial power supply. In the low-speed
range, the cooling effect will be weakened, so decrease the
output torque of the motor. If constant torque is required in
the low-speed range, use a Fuji inverter motor or a motor
equipped with an externally powered ventilating fan.
Vibration
When an inverter-driven motor is mounted to a machine,
resonance may be caused by the natural frequencies of the
machine system.
Note that operation of a 2-pole motor at 60 Hz or higher may
cause abnormal vibration.
* The use of a rubber coupling or vibration dampening rubber
is recommended.
* Use the inverter's jump frequency control feature to skip
the resonance frequency zone(s).

purpose
motors
Noise
When an inverter is used with a general-purpose motor, the
motor noise level is higher than that with a commercial power
supply. To reduce noise, raise carrier frequency of the in-
verter. Operation at 60 Hz or higher can also result in higher
noise level.
High-speed mo-
tors
If the reference frequency is set to 120 Hz or more to drive a
high-speed motor, test-run the combination of the inverter
and motor beforehand to check for safe operation.
Explosion-proof
motors
When driving an explosion-proof motor with an inverter, use a
combination of a motor and an inverter that has been ap-
proved in advance.
Submersible mo-
tors and pumps
These motors have a larger rated current than gen-
eral-purpose motors. Select an inverter whose rated output
current is greater than that of the motor.
These motors differ from general-purpose motors in thermal
characteristics. Set a low value in the thermal time constant
of the motor when setting the electronic thermal function.

tors
Brake motors
For motors equipped with parallel-connected brakes, their
braking power must be supplied from the input (primary)
circuit. If the brake power is connected to the inverter's output
(secondary) circuit by mistake, the brake will not work.
Do not use inverters for driving motors equipped with se-
ries-connected brakes.
