  • Page 98: Noise Reduction Techniques

    10.5 Noise reduction techniques Noises are classified into external noises, which enter the converter unit/drive unit to cause it to malfunction, and those radiated by the converter unit/drive unit to cause peripheral equipment to malfunction. Because the converter unit/drive unit is an electronic device that handles small signals, the following general noise reduction techniques are required.
  • Page 99 ■Techniques for noises radiated by the converter unit/drive unit that cause peripheral equipment to malfunction Noises produced by the converter unit/drive unit are classified into those radiated from the cables connected to the converter unit/drive unit and its main circuits (input/output), those induced electromagnetically or statically by the signal cables of the peripheral equipment located near the main circuit cables, and those transmitted through the power supply cables.
  • Page 100 Noise transmission Suppression techniques route (1), (2), (3) A malfunction due to noise transmitted through the air may occur in devices which handle weak signals and are susceptible to noise, such as measuring instruments, receivers and sensors. In addition, a malfunction may also occur when their signal cables are stored in a cabinet together with a converter unit/drive unit or when the signal cables run near it.
