Note 7: The wire sizes specified in the above table apply to HIV wires (copper wires shielded with an insulator with a maximum allowable temperature of 75°C) used at an ambient temperature of 50°C or less.
Note 1) When VIA terminal is used as logic input terminal, be sure to connect a resistor between P24 and VIA in case of sink logic, between VIA and CC in case of source logic. (Recommended resistance: 4.7kΩ-1/2W)
It is not needed for VIB terminal.
Note 2) 100mA is the sum of P24 and +24.
Note 3) A chattering (momentary ON/OFF of contact) is generated by external factors of the vibration and the impact, etc. In particular, please set the filter of 10ms or more, or timer for mea-
sures when connecting it directly with input unit terminal of programmable controller. Please use the OUT terminal as much as possible when the programmable controller is connected.

2. Selecting the Capacity (model)
of the Inverter
Selection
[Capacity]
Refer to the applicable motor capacities
listed in the standard specifications.
When driving a high-pole motor, special mo-
tor, or multiple motors in parallel, select such
an inverter that the sum of the motor rated
current multiplied by 1.05 to 1.1 is less than
the inverter's rated output current value.
[Acceleration/deceleration times]
The actual acceleration and deceleration
times of a motor driven by an inverter are
determined by the torque and moment of
inertia of the load, and can be calculated by
the following equations.
The acceleration and deceleration times of
an inverter can be set individually. In any
case, however, they should be set longer
than their respective values determined by
the following equations.
Acceleration ta= (JM+JL) x ΔN (sec.)
time 9.56 x (TM-TL)
Deceleration ta= (JM+JL) x ΔN (sec.)
time 9.56 x (TB-TL)

TB :Motor rated torque x 0.2 (N·m)
( When a braking resistor or a braking resistor
unit is used: Motor rated torque x 0.8-1.0 (N·m)
[Allowable torque characteristics]
When a standard motor is combined with an
inverter to perform variable speed operation,
the motor temperature rises slightly higher
than it normally does during commercial
power supply operation. This is because the
inverter output voltage has a sinusoidal (ap-
proximate) PWM waveform. In addition, the
cooling becomes less effective at low speed,
so the torque must be reduced according
to the frequency. Regarding the allowable
torque characteristic, please confirm with the
motor manufacturer.
When constant-torque operation must be
performed at low speeds, use a Toshiba
constant-torque motor designed specifically
for use with inverters.
[Starting characteristics]
When a motor is driven by an inverter, its op-
eration is restricted by the inverter’s overload
current rating, so the starting characteristic
is different from those obtained from com-
mercial power supply operation.
Although the starting torque is smaller with
an inverter than with the commercial power
supply, a high starting torque can be pro-
duced at low speeds by adjusting the V/f
pattern torque boost amount or by employ-
21
ing vector control. When a larger starting
torque is necessary, select an inverter with a
larger capacity and examine the possibility
of increasing the motor capacity.
3. When installing, wiring and
operating the inverter
Installing and wiring
[Installing precautions]
(1) Do not install in any location of high
temperature, high humidity, moisture
condensation and freezing. Do not install
the inverter where there are gases that
corrode metal or solvents that adversely
affect plastic.
Avoid locations where there is exposure
to water and/or where there may be large
amounts of dust and metallic fragments.
In this case, please install inverters in the
enclosure type cabinet. The cabinet must
be considered its size and the cooling
method to allow the specifications of an
ambient temperature for inverters.
(2) Must be installed in non-inflammables
such as metals. The rear panel gets very
hot. If installation is in an inflammable
object, this can result in fire.
(3) Inverters should be arranged in horizontal
rows.
[Wiring precautions]
Installing a molded-case circuit breaker [MCCB]
(1) Install a molded-case circuit breaker
(MCCB) on the inverter's power supply
input to protect the wiring.
(2) Avoid turning the molded-case circuit
breaker on and off frequently to turn on/
off the motor.
(3) To turn on/off the motor frequently, close/
break the control terminals F (or R)-CC.
Installing a magnetic contactor [MC] [primary
side]
(1) To prevent an automatic restart after the
power interruption or overload relay has
tripped, or actuation of the protective
circuit, install an electro-magnetic contact
in the power supply.
) (2) The inverter is provided with a failure
detection relay (FL), so that, if its contacts
are connected to the operation circuit of
the magnetic contactor on the primary
side, the magnetic contactor will be
opened when the protective circuit of the
inverter is activated.
(3) The inverter can be used without a
magnetic contactor. In this case, use an
MCCB (equipped with a voltage tripping
device) for opening the primary circuit
when the inverter protective circuit is acti-
vated.
(4) Avoid turning the magnetic contactor on
and off frequently to turn on/off the motor.
(5) To turn on/off the motor frequently, close/
break the control terminals F (or R)-CC.
(6) Install surge suppressor on any magnetic
contactor and relay coils used around the
inverter.
(7) If using a braking resistor, install a mag-
netic contactor (MC) to the power supply
of the inverter, so that the power circuit
opens when the internal overload relay of
the braking resistor is activated.
Installing a magnetic contactor [MC] [secondary
side]
(1) As a rule, if a magnetic contactor is
installed between the inverter and the
motor, do not turn on/off while running.
(If the secondary-side contactor is turned
on/off while running, a large current may
flow in the inverter, causing inverter dam-
age and failure.)
(2) A magnetic contactor may be installed to
change the motor or change to the com-
mercial power source when the inverter is
stopped. Always use an interlock with the
magnetic contactor in this situation so
that the commercial power supply is not
applied to the inverter's output terminals.
External signal
(1) Use a relay rated for low currents. Mount
a surge suppressor on the excitation coil
of the relay.
(2) When wiring the control circuit, use
shielded wires or twisted pair cables.
(3) Because all of the control terminals
except FLA, FLB, FLC, RY or RC are
connected to electronic circuits, insulate
these terminals to prevent them from
coming into contact with the main circuit.
Installing an overload relay
(1) This inverter has an electronic-thermal
overload protective function.
However, in the following cases, the
thermal relay operation level must be ad-
justed or an overload relay matching the
motor's characteristics must be installed
between the inverter and the motor.
(a) When using a motor having a rated
current value different from that of the
equivalent.
(b) When driving several motors simulta-
neously.
(2) When using the inverter to control the
operation of a constant-torque motor,
change the protective characteristic of
the electronic thermal relay according to
the setting of the constant-torque motor.
(3) In order to adequately protect a motor
used for low-speed operation, we recom-
mend the use of a motor equipped with
an embedded thermal relay.
Wiring
(1) Do not connect input power to the output
(motor side) terminals (U/T1,V/T2,W/T3).
That will destroy the inverter and may re-
sult in fire. Please pay attentions of wiring
before power supply turns-on.
(2) The DC terminals (PA/+, PO and PB) are
for specified options. Do not connect
other devices to these terminals.
(3) Within 15 minutes after turning off input
power, do not touch wires of devices
(MCCB) connected to the input side of
the inverter.
Grounding
The inverters and motors must be connected
to ground securely. In case of grounding for
inverters, please use the grounding terminal
of the inverter.
Operating precautions
(1) When the inverter operates in abnormal
circumstances, the protective function
activates to shut off the inverter output.
However, the inverters can not stop the
motors quickly. Please install the me-
chanical brake or maintenance function in
the mechanical equipment and the device
for which the emergency stop is neces-
sary.
(2) When you drive the machine and the de-
vice that hangs the load repeatedly with
the inverter, the semiconductor within
inverter might cause thermal fatigue and
it come to have a short life if a big cur-
rent flows repeatedly when driving and
stopping. In this case, it is possible to
extend life span by controlling the start-
ing current and the load current low or
setting the PWM career frequency low. If
you can not decrease the starting current,
please select larger capacity of inverters
for current margins.
4. When changing the motor
speed
Application to standard motors
Vibration
When a motor is operated with an inverter, it
experiences more vibrations than when it is
operated by the commercial power supply.
The vibration can be reduced to a negligible
level by securing the motor and machine to
the base firmly.
If the base is weak, however, the vibration
may increase at a light load due to reso-
nance with the mechanical system. In this
case, using jump frequency to avoid reso-
nant frequencies or changing PWM carrier
frequency is also effective.
Acoustic noise
The magnetic noise of motors with inverter
drives is changed by PWM carrier frequency.
In case of high PWM carrier frequency set-
tings, its acoustic noise is almost same as
commercial power supply drives. Moreover,
when the motors are operated over rated
rotation, the windy noise of the motors is
increased.
Reduction gear, belt, chain
Note that the lubrication capability of a re-
ducer or a converter used as the interface of
the motor and the load machine may affect
at low speeds.
When operating at frequencies exceeding
60 Hz or higher, power transmission mecha-
nisms such as reduction gear, belts and
chains, may cause problems such as pro-
duction of noise, a reduction in strength, or
shortening of service life.
Frequency
Before setting the maximum frequency to
60 Hz or higher, confirm that this operating
range is acceptable for the motor.
Starting method
When you drive the motor with changeable
connection between star-connection and
delta-connection for decreasing starting cur-
rent, please connect delta-connection only. If
you change motor connection while inverter
drives, the protective function of inverter
activates.
Application to special motors
Gear motor
When using an inverter to drive a gear motor,
inquire of the motor manufacturer about its
continuous operation range due to the fol-
lowings:
- The low-speed operation of a gear motor
may cause insufficient lubrication
- The loss of a gear may be increased than
commercial power supply drives.
- In case of the operation on high frequency
exceeding 60Hz, the acoustic noise and
motor temperature may be higher.
Toshiba Gold Motor (High-efficiency
power-saving motor)
Inverter-driven operation of Toshiba Gold
Motors is the best solution for saving energy.
This is because these motors have improved
efficiency, power factor, and noise/vibration
reduction characteristics when compared to
standard motors.
Pole-changing motor
Pole-changing motors can be driven by this
inverter. Before changing poles, however,
be sure to let the motor come to a complete
stop. If you change motor connection while
inverter drives, the protective function of
inverter may activate.
Underwater motors
Note that underwater motors have higher
rated current than general motors.
The current ratings of underwater motors
are relatively high. So, when selecting an
inverter, you must pay special attention to its
current rating so that the current rating of the
motor is below that of the inverter.
When the lengths of the motor cable are
long, please use thicker cable than a table
of “Wiring devices” because the maximum
torque is decreased by the voltage dropping.
Moreover, please pay attention to select
leakage circuit breakers.
Single-phase motor
Because single-phase motors are equipped
with a centrifugal switch and capacitors for
starting, they cannot be driven by an inverter.
When single phase motors are driven by
inverters, a centrifugal switch and capacitors
may be broken. In case of a single-phase,
power system, a 3-phase motor can be
driven by using a single-phase input inverter
to convert it into a 3-phase 200V output. (A
special inverter and a 3-phase 200V motor
are required.)
Braking motor
When using a braking motor, if the braking
circuit is directly connected to the inverter's
output terminals, the brake cannot be re-
leased because of the lowered starting volt-
age. Therefore, when using a braking motor,
connect the braking circuit to the inverter's
power supply side, as shown on the below.
Usually, braking motors produce larger noise
in low speed ranges.

5. Disposal of the inverter
For safety’s sake, do not dispose of the dis-
used inverter yourself but ask an industrial
waste disposal agent.
Disposing of the inverter improperly could
cause its capacitor to explode and emit toxic
gas, causing injury to persons.
