Delta Electronics VFD-VL manual Affecting Other Machines

Chapter 5 Troubleshooting

In additional, the microcomputer may not work in extreme low temperature and needs to

have heater.

4.Store within a relative humidity range of 0% to 90% and non-condensing environment. Do not turn off the air conditioner and have exsiccator for it.

5.15Affecting Other Machines

AC motor drive may affect the operation of other machine due to many reasons. The solutions are as follows.

„High Harmonic at Power Side

If there is high harmonic at power side during running, the improved methods are:

1.Separate power system: use transformer for AC motor drive.

2.Use reactor at the power input terminal of AC motor drive or decrease high harmonic by multiple circuit.

3.If there is phase lead capacitor, it should use serial reactor to prevent capacitor damage from high harmonic.

„Motor Temperature Rises

When the motor is induction motor with ventilation-cooling-type used in variety speed operation, bad cooling will happen in the low speed. Therefore, it may overheat. Besides, high harmonic is in output waveform to increase copper loss and iron loss. Following measures should be used by load situation and operation range when necessary.

1.Use the motor with independent power ventilation or increase the horsepower.

2.Use inverter duty motor.

3.Do NOT run in the low speed
