NOTES
Special notes referring to the table:
When undervoltage or instantaneous power failure has occurred, alarm display or alarm
output is not provided but the inverter itself is protected. Overcurrent, regenerative
overvoltage or other protection may be activated at power restoration according to the op-
erating condidition.
Temperature applicable for a short period in transit, etc.
The braking torque indicated is short-duration average torque (which varies with motor
loss) when the motor alone is decelerated from 50Hz in the shortest time and is not a con-
tinuous regenerative torque. When the motor is decelerated from the frequency higher than
the base frequency, the average deceleration torque will reduce. Since the inverters of the
FR-E500 EC Series does not contain a brake resistor, use the optional brake resistor when
regenerative energy is large. A brake unit BU may also be used.
Not valid for the inverters FR-E 520S-0.4 k, -0.75 k EC and FR-E 540-0.4 k, -0.75 k EC
which are not equipped with a cooling fan.
