Installation Precautions Location and Ambient Requirements The Toshiba ASD is intended for permanent installations only. Installation should conform to the 2005 National Electrical Code — Article 110 (Requirements For Electrical Installations), all regulations of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, and any other applicable national, regional, or industry codes and standards. Select a mounting location that is easily accessible, has adequate personnel working space, and ad

Conductor Requirements and Grounding WARNING Use separate metal conduits for routing the input power, output power, and control circuits and each shall have its own ground cable. A separate ground cable should be run inside the conduit with the input power, output power, and and control circuits. DO NOT connect control terminal strip return marked CC to earth ground. Always ground the unit to prevent electrical shock and to help reduce electrical noise. It is the responsibility of th

Protection Ensure that primary protection exists for the input wiring to the equipment. This protection must be able to interrupt the available fault current from the power line. The equipment may or may not be equipped with an input disconnect (option). All cable entry openings must be sealed to reduce the risk of entry by vermin and to allow for maximum cooling efficiency. Follow all warnings and precautions and do not exceed equipment ratings. If using multiple motors provide separ

System Integration Precautions The following precautions are provided as general guidelines for the setup of the ASD within the system. The Toshiba ASD is a general-purpose product. It is a system component only and the system design should take this into consideration. Please contact your Toshiba sales representative for application-specific information or for training support. The Toshiba ASD is part of a larger system and the safe operation of the ASD will depend on observing certain

System Setup Requirements When using the ASD as an integral part of a larger system, it is the responsibility of the ASD installer or maintenance personnel to ensure that there is a fail-safe in place, i.e., an arrangement designed to switch the system to a safe condition if there is a fault or failure. System safety features should be employed and designed into the integrated system in a manner such that system operation, even in the event of system failure, will not cause harm or result

Operational and Maintenance Precautions WARNING Turn off, lockout, and tagout the main power, the control power, and instrumentation connections before inspecting or servicing the drive, or opening the door of the enclosure. Turn off, lockout, and tagout the main power, the control power, and instrumentation connections before proceeding to disconnect or connect the power wiring to the equipment. The capacitors of the ASD maintain a residual charge for a period of time after turning the

Motor Characteristics Listed below are some variable speed AC motor control concepts with which the user of the W7 Adjustable Speed Drive should become familiar. Pulse Width Modulation Operation The W7 ASD uses a sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) control system. The output current waveform generated by the ASD approaches that of a perfect sine wave; however, the output waveform is slightly distorted. For this reason, the motor may produce more heat, noise, and vibration when operated b

resistor. The braking resistor must be suitably matched to the load. Dynamic braking is also effective in reducing the DC bus voltage during a momentary over-voltage condition. CAUTION If under extreme conditions the dynamic braking system or a component of this system were to fail, the dynamic braking resistor may experience an extended over-current condition. The DBR circuit was designed to dissipate excessive amounts of heat and if the extended over-current condition were allowed to excee

Installation and Connections The W7 Adjustable Speed Drive may be set up initially by performing a few simple configuration settings. To operate properly, the ASD must be securely mounted and connected to a power source (3- phase AC input at the L1/R, L2/S, and L3/T terminals). The control terminals of the ASD may be used by connecting the terminals of the Control Terminal Strip to the proper sensors or signal input sources (see the section titled I/O and Control on pg. 17). The output termin

The ASD is designed to operate NEMA B motors. Consult with your sales representative before using the ASD for special applications such as with an explosion-proof motor or applications with a piston load. Do Not apply commercial power to the output terminals T1/U, T2/V, or T3/W. Disconnect the ASD from the motor before megging or applying a bypass voltage to the motor. Interface problems may occur when an ASD is used in conjunction with some types of process controllers. Signal isolation may
