Installing Reactors
A large peak current will flow in the power input circuit when the Inverter is connected to a large-capacity
power transformer (600 kVA or higher) or when switching a phase capacitor. Excessive peak current can de-

power factor.
DC reactors are built into 200 V class Inverters of 18.5 to 75 kW and 400 V class Inverters of 18.5 to 160 kW.
If a thyrister convertor, such as a DC drive, is connected in the same power supply system, connect a DC or
AC reactor regardless of the power supply conditions shown in the following diagram.

J
Inverter Capacity
When connecting special motors or multiple motors in parallel to an Inverter, select the Inverter capacity so
that the rated output current of the Inverter is 1.1 times the sum of all the motor rated currents.
J
Initial Torque
The startup and acceleration characteristics of the motor are restricted by the overload current ratings of the
Inverterthatisdriving the motor.The torque characteristicsare generallylessthan thoserequiredwhenstart-
ing using a normal commercial power supply. If a large initial torque is required, select an Inverter with a
somewhat larger capacity or increase the capacity of both the motor and the inverter.
J
Emergency Stop
Although the Inverter’s protective functions will stop operation when a fault occurs, the motor will not stop
immediately.Alwaysprovide mechanicalstopandprotectionmechanismsonequipmentrequiringanemer-

12.1.2 Installation
J
Installation in Enclosures
EitherinstalltheInverterinacleanlocationnotsubjecttooilmist,air-bournematter,dust,andothercontami-
nants, or install the Inverter in a completely enclosed panel. Provide cooling measures and sufficient panel
space sothat the temperature surrounding the Inverter does not go beyond the allowable temperature. Do not
install the Inverter on wood or other combustible materials.
J
Installation Direction
Mount the Inverter vertically to a wall or other horizontal surface.
