In some applications, lowering carrier frequency reduces
switching losses and increases bearing life in some motors.
Minarik provides an optional capacitor kit for lowering the
carrier frequency.
The default carrier frequency on VFD controls is 16kHz.
Using one of the capacitors supplied in the kit, the carrier
frequency can be lowered to a range of 12kHz to 4kHz.
Note: Audible noise will increase when the carrier
frequency is lowered.
To lower the carrier freqency on all VFD controls, install one
of the following 2-pin capacitors (C510) on the bottom
board:
