1.3.3 Grounding capacitor switching method

The inverter is grounded through a capacitor. The leakage current from th e inverter can be reduced using the sel ector
switch, switching bar or switching screw (depending on the model). This switching device is used to d etach the
capacitor from the grounding circuit or to reduce its capacitance.
Some models have capacitors that can be detached completely, while other s have capacitances that can be reduced.
Note 1:Without the capacitor, the inverter does not comply with the EMC directive.
200V/45kW - 400V/75kW models and smaller: Grounding capacit or switch
Warning
Prohibited
!When attaching or detaching the capacitor, be sure to turn off power.
!When the grounding capacitor is detached from the inverter with a capacity of 400V-3.7kW or
less, be sure to set the carrier frequency (EH) to 4kHz or less .
If the carrier frequency is set above 4kHz, the inverter may overheat and become damaged.
!When the grounding capacitor is detached from the inverter and t he cables connecting the
inverter to the motor are 100 m or more in length with a ca pacity between 400V-5.5kW and
400V-18.5kW, be sure to set the carrier frequency (EH) to 4kHz or less.
If the carrier frequency is set above 4kHz, the inverter may overheat and become damaged.
!When installing or operating the inverter within an ungrounde d system or within a
high-resistance grounding system, set the grounding capacitor switch to Smal l.
Any other setting may result in a system malfunction or overhea ting.
*1: Refer to Section 1.3.1 for the
position of the switch.
*3: For 400V-3.7kW model and less, the switch is fixed with a
label saying “CF/SFr

4kHz.” If such a label is affixed to
your inverter, you should set the carrier frequency (EH) at
4kHz or less according to the instructions when switching.
