Wiring Instructions
Proper wiring is crucial for the safe and correct operation of the VFD. Refer to the diagram below for terminal connections.
Figure 4.1: VFD Wiring Diagram. This image illustrates the wiring connections for the VFD, showing a 3-phase AC 380V input connected to L1, L2, L3 terminals via a circuit breaker, and a 3-phase motor connected to U, V, W output terminals. The grounding terminal is also indicated.
- Input Power (L1, L2, L3): Connect the 3-phase AC 380V power supply to the L1, L2, and L3 input terminals. It is recommended to install a circuit breaker or fuse upstream for protection.
- Motor Output (U, V, W): Connect the three phases of your 3-phase motor to the U, V, and W output terminals of the VFD.
- Grounding (GND): Connect the grounding terminal of the VFD to a reliable earth ground. This is essential for safety.
- Control Terminals: If using external control signals (e.g., remote start/stop, external potentiometer), refer to the detailed wiring diagram in the full product manual for specific terminal assignments.
Mounting
The VFD is designed for wall mounting. Ensure the mounting surface is stable and can support the weight of the unit. Allow adequate clearance around the VFD for ventilation and heat dissipation. Avoid mounting in direct sunlight, high humidity, or dusty environments.
5. Operating Instructions
This section outlines the basic operation of the VFD. For advanced parameter settings, refer to the comprehensive manual provided with the product.
Basic Operation
- Power On: After ensuring all wiring is correct and secure, apply power to the VFD. The LED display will illuminate.
- Speed Adjustment: Rotate the SPEED adjustment knob on the control panel to set the desired output frequency (and thus motor speed). The display will show the current frequency in Hz.
- Start Motor: Press the green RUN button to start the motor. The motor will accelerate to the set speed.
- Stop Motor: Press the red STOP button to stop the motor. The motor will decelerate and come to a halt.
- Fault Reset: In case of a fault (indicated by an error code on the display), address the underlying issue and then press the F/R button (often labeled as 'Break Down Fault Reset') to clear the fault and resume operation.
Menu Navigation and Parameter Setting
The VFD allows for detailed parameter configuration to optimize performance for specific applications. Use the SET button to enter the menu mode and the ESC button to exit. The arrow keys (up/down) are used to navigate through parameters, and the SET button is used to select a parameter and confirm changes.
