Mounting Installation The inverter consists of precision mechanical and electronic parts. Never install or handle it in any of the following conditions as doing so could cause an operation fault or failure. High temperature, Direct sunlight Vibration (≥ 5,9 m/s²) Horizontal placement high humidity Transportation by holding...
Tab. 2-1: Environmental standard specifications of inverter Temperature The permissible ambient temperature of the inverter FR-E700 is between −10 and +50°C. Al- ways operate the inverter within this temperature range. Operation outside this range will con- siderably shorten the service lives of the semiconductors, parts, capacitors and others. Take the following measures so that the ambient temperature of the inverter falls within the specified range.
Page 30
Enclosure design Installation Humidity Normally operate the inverter within the 45 to 90% range of the ambient humidity. Too high hu- midity will pose problems of reduced insulation and metal corrosion. On the other hand, too low humidity may produce a spatial electrical breakdown. The insulation distance specified in JEM1103 "Control Equipment Insulator"...

Especially when impact is imposed repeatedly, caution must be taken as the part pins are likely to break. ● Countermeasures – Provide the enclosure with rubber vibration isolators. – Strengthen the structure to prevent the enclosure from resonance. – Install the enclosure away from sources of vibration.

Enclosure design Installation Cooling system types for inverter enclosure From the enclosure that contains the inverter, the heat of the inverter and other equipment (transformers, lamps, resistors, etc.) and the incoming heat such as direct sunlight must be dis- sipated to keep the in-enclosure temperature lower than the permissible temperatures of the in- enclosure equipment including the inverter.
Mount the inverter on a wall as specified. Do not mount it horizontally or any other way. Above the inverter Heat is blown up from inside the inverter by the small fan built in the unit. Any equipment placed above the inverter should be heat resistant. FR-E700 EC 2 - 11...

Enclosure design Installation Arrangement of multiple inverters When multiple inverters are placed in the same enclosure, generally arrange them horizontally as shown in the figure (a). When it is inevitable to arrange them vertically to minimize space, take such measures as to provide guides since heat from the bottom inverters can increase the tem- peratures in the top inverters, causing inverter failures.

When connecting the FR-HEL, remove the jumper across terminals + and P1. NOTES The wiring length between the FR-HEL and inverter should be 5m maximum and minimized. Use the same wire size as that of the power supply wire (R/L1, S/L2, T/L3). (Refer to page 3-9.) FR-E700 EC 3 - 37...
When the wiring length is long (50m or more) for the 400V class small-capacity model (FR-E700-170 or less), the external thermal relay is likely to operate unnecessarily because the ratio of the leakage current to the rated motor current increases.

Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) Wiring 3.8.2 Inverter-generated noises and their reduction techniques Some noises enter the inverter to malfunction it and others are radiated by the inverter to mal- function peripheral devices. Though the inverter is designed to be insusceptible to noises, it han- dles low-level signals, so it requires the following basic techniques.

Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) Wiring Noise Measures Propagation Path When devices that handle low-level signals and are liable to malfunction due to noises, e.g. instruments, receivers and sensors, are contained in the enclosure that contains the inverter or when their signal cables are run near the inverter, the devices may be malfunctioned by air- propagated noises.
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) Wiring 3.8.4 Inverter-driven 400V class motor In the PWM type inverter, a surge voltage attributable to wiring constants is generated at the mo- tor terminals. Especially for a 400V class motor, the surge voltage may deteriorate the insula- tion.
Operation Precautions for use of the inverter The FR-E700 series is a highly reliable product, but incorrect peripheral circuit making or op- eration/handling method may shorten the product life or damage the product. Before starting operation, always recheck the following items.
Page 82
Precautions for use of the inverter Operation ● Do not use the inverter input side magnetic contactor to start/stop the inverter. Always use the start signal (ON/OFF of STF and STR signals) to start/stop the inverter. ● Across + and PR terminals, connect only an external regenerative brake discharging resistor. Do not connect a mechanical brake.
