2.4 Wiring Instructions
WARNING: All wiring should be performed by qualified personnel only. Ensure the power supply is disconnected before making any connections. Incorrect wiring can lead to severe injury or equipment damage.
The VFD requires a single-phase 220V AC input and provides a three-phase 220V AC output for the motor.
- Input Power (AC 220V Single Phase): Connect the single-phase 220V AC power supply to the designated input terminals (L and N). It is recommended to install a circuit breaker for protection.
- Output Power (AC 220V Three Phase): Connect the three-phase motor to the output terminals (U, V, W).
- Grounding: Ensure the VFD is properly grounded to the GND terminal to prevent electrical shock and ensure safe operation.
- RS485 Communication: The VFD includes an RS485 communication port for advanced control and monitoring. Refer to the detailed wiring diagram for specific connections if using this feature.
