5.14 Decrease Noise
◆
Connect a Noise Filter to the Input Side (Primary Side)
High-speed switching makes noise in the drive output. This noise flows from the drive to the power supply, and can
possibly have an effect on other equipment. Install a noise filter to the input side of the drive to decrease the quantity
of noise that flows to the power supply. A noise filter also prevents noise from entering the drive from the power
supply.
• Use a noise filter specially designed for drives.
• Install the noise filter as close as possible to the drive.

B - Input side (primary side) noise filter C - Drive
D - Other controller
Note:
The input side (primary side) noise filter model is LNFD-xx.
Figure 5.91 Example of Connecting the Noise Filter on the Input Side (Primary Side)
◆
Connect a Noise Filter to the Output Side (Secondary Side)
A noise filter on the output side of the drive decreases inductive noise and radio frequency interference.
Figure 5.92 shows an example of noise filter wiring.
NOTICE: Do not connect phase-advancing capacitors, LC/RC noise filters, or leakage breakers (GFCI) to the motor circuit. If you
connect these devices to the output circuits, it can cause damage to the drive and connected equipment.

Glossary
•
Radio frequency interference:
Electromagnetic waves radiated from the drive and cables make noise through the full radio bandwidth that can have an effect on nearby
devices.
•
Inductive noise:
The noise from electromagnetic induction can have an effect on the signal line and can cause the controller to malfunction.
■
Prevent Inductive Noise
In addition to installing a noise filter, you can also run all wiring through a grounded metal conduit to decrease
inductive noise occurring at the output side. Put the cables a minimum of 30 cm (11.8 in) away from the signal line to
prevent induced noise. Ground the cables to metal conduits.
