Precautions for use of the drive unit
(12) Across terminals P/+ and PR, connect only an external brake resistor.
Do not connect a mechanical brake.
The brake resistor can not be connected to the 0.1K or 0.2K. Leave terminals P/+ and PR open.
Also, never short between these terminals.
(13) Do not apply a voltage higher than the permissible voltage to the drive unit I/O signal circuits.
Application of a voltage higher than the permissible voltage to the drive unit I/O signal circuits or opposite polarity may
damage the I/O devices. Especially check the wiring to prevent the speed setting potentiometer from being connected
incorrectly to short terminals 10 and 5.
(14) If the machine must not be restarted when power is restored after a power failure, provide a magnetic contactor
in the drive unit's input side and also make up a sequence which will not switch ON the start signal.
If the start signal (start switch) remains ON after a power failure, the drive unit will automatically restart as soon as the
power is restored.
(15) Drive unit input side magnetic contactor (MC)
On the drive unit input side, connect a MC for the following purposes. (Refer to
for selection.)
1) To release the drive unit from the power supply when a fault occurs or when the drive is not functioning (e.g.
emergency stop operation). For example, MC avoids overheat or burnout of the brake resistor when heat capacity of
the resistor is insufficient or brake regenerative transistor is damaged with short while connecting an optional brake
resistor.
2) To prevent any accident due to an automatic restart at restoration of power after a drive unit stop made by a power
failure
3) To separate the drive unit from the power supply to ensure safe maintenance and inspection work.
If using an MC for emergency stop during operation, select an MC regarding the drive unit input side current as
JEM1038-AC-3 class rated current.
(16) Handling of magnetic motor starter at the drive unit output side
Do not install a magnetic contactor (MC) at the drive unit's output side.
In an application where the motor is driven by the load even after the drive unit is powered OFF, a manual contactor must
be provided at the drive unit's output side. Do not open or close the manual contactor while the drive unit is running
(outputting).
(17) Countermeasures against EMI generated by the drive unit
If electromagnetic noise generated from the drive unit causes speed setting signal to fluctuate and motor rotation speed
to be unstable when changing motor rotation speed with analog signal, the following countermeasures are effective.
Do not run the signal cables and power cables (drive unit I/O cables) in parallel with each other and do not bundle
them.
Run signal cables as far away as possible from power cables (drive unit I/O cables).
Use shield cables as signal cables.
Install a ferrite core on the signal cable (Example: ZCAT3035-1330 TDK).
(18) Instructions for overload operation
When performing operation of frequent start/stop of the drive unit, rise/fall in the temperature of the transistor element of
the drive unit will repeat due to a repeated flow of large current, shortening the life from thermal fatigue. Since thermal
fatigue is related to the amount of current, the life can be increased by reducing current at locked condition, starting
current, etc. Decreasing current may increase the life. However, decreasing current will result in insufficient torque and
the drive unit may not start. An effective measure is to use a drive unit and motor with higher capacities. Doing so will
provide a margin to the load.
(19) Make sure that the specifications and rating match the system requirements.
