Yaskawa products are being used in an expanding range of environments and applications. In 1996, Yaskawa introduced Japan’s first
commercially produced PWM, medium-voltage AC inverter with multi-output connected in series. Building on this high-level technique,
Yaskawa is manufacturing an easy to operate, highly reliable medium-voltage adjustable frequency drive.

Yaskawa is the world leader in quality and reliability. Over 1000 medium-voltage installations with zero downtime. This commitment to
quality is directly related to customer satisfaction.

With an ISO 9000 system, a Supplier Rating Program, and rigorous testing, Yaskawa ensures that quality and reliability are designed and
built in. Field data confirms that calculated MTBF targets are exceeded in actual production units. Yaskawa is the only manufacturer in
our field to receive the Deming Prize for quality.

Stable Deceleration Operation

A function to prevent excessive deceleration
has been added to avoid nuisance
overvoltage trips during deceleration.
If the DC bus voltage rises above a preset
limit during deceleration, the inverter stops
decelerating. This prevents a DC bus
overvoltage trip from occurring, and enables
continuous operation.
