Injury Prevention
Additional Instructions
Also note the following points to prevent an accidental failure, injury, electric shock, etc.
Transportation and installation
Wiring
Test operation and adjustment
Apply only the voltage specified in the instruction manual to each terminal. Otherwise, burst, damage, etc. may occur.
Ensure that the cables are connected to the correct terminals. Otherwise, burst, damage, etc. may occur.
Always make sure that polarity is correct to prevent damage, etc. Otherwise, burst, damage, etc. may occur.
While power is on or for some time after power-off, do not touch the inverter as it is hot and you may get burnt.
Any person who is opening a package using a sharp object, such as a knife and cutter, must wear gloves to prevent injuries caused
by the edge of the sharp object.
When carrying products, use correct lifting gear to prevent injury.
Do not stand or rest heavy objects on the product.
Do not stack the inverter boxes higher than the number recommended.
When carrying the inverter, do not hold it by the front cover or setting dial; it may fall off or fail.
During installation, caution must be taken not to drop the inverter as doing so may cause injuries.
Ensure that installation position and material can withstand the weight of the inverter. Install according to the information in the instruction
manual.
Do not install the product on a hot surface.
Check the inverter mounting orientation is correct.
The inverter must be installed on a strong surface securely with screws so that it will not drop.
Do not install or operate the inverter if it is damaged or has parts missing. This can result in breakdowns.
Prevent other conductive bodies such as screws and metal fragments or other flammable substance such as oil from entering the
inverter.
As the inverter is a precision instrument, do not drop or subject it to impact.
Use the inverter under the following environmental conditions. Otherwise, the inverter may be damaged.

If halogen-based materials (fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, etc.) infiltrate into a Mitsubishi product, the product will be damaged.
Halogen-based materials are often included in fumigant, which is used to sterilize or disinfect wooden packages. When packaging,
prevent residual fumigant components from being infiltrated into Mitsubishi products, or use an alternative sterilization or disinfection
method (heat disinfection, etc.) for packaging. Sterilization of disinfection of wooden package should also be performed before
packaging the product.
To prevent a failure, do not use the inverter with a part or material containing halogen flame retardant including bromine.
Do not install assemblies or components (e. g. power factor correction capacitors) on the inverter output side, which are not approved
from Mitsubishi. These devices on the inverter output side may be overheated or burn out.
The direction of rotation of the motor corresponds to the direction of rotation commands (STF/STR) only if the phase sequence (U, V,
W) is maintained.
PM motor terminals (U, V, W) hold high-voltage while the PM motor is running even after the power is turned OFF. Before wiring, the
PM motor must be confirmed to be stopped. Otherwise you may get an electric shock.
Never connect an PM motor to the commercial power supply.
Applying the commercial power supply to input terminals (U,V, W) of a PM motor will burn the PM motor. The PM motor must be
connected with the output terminals (U, V, W) of the inverter.
Before starting operation, confirm and adjust the parameters. A failure to do so may cause some machines to make unexpected
motions.
