Yaskawa VFD Drives

/in , /by

Yaskawa VFD drives are designed to minimize harmful demand for input harmonic distortion. Yaskawa VFD drives up to25 HP are available with optional 3% or 5% equivalent line impedance DC Bus Reactors.At 30 HP and above, Yaskawa VFD drives include 3% impedance as standard. Some Yaskawa VFD drives include a dual diode bridgerectifier which can be configured to accept 12-pulse(delta-delta and delta-wye secondary) transformerinput. Yaskawa VFD drives can also be factory configured with an integral18-pulse transformer. These packages are typicallyused to meet the most strict harmonic requirementsat both drive input terminals and the point of commoncoupling.

Yaskawa VFD drives are factory-programmed and ready torun. An LCD interface enhances ease of use with itsmultiple language support and parameter copy feature thatallows duplication of settings between drives. In addition,a portable USB Copy Unit (1000 series only) providesa very convenient method of desktop configurationtransportable to the factory floor.All Yaskawa VFD drives have a split cover for easy access to thepower and control terminals. The power terminal compartmenteasily accommodates bend radius for cable connections. Controlwires are connected to a detachable terminal board for ease ofinstallation and maintenance.

Detachable cooling fans are easy to replace and on/off fan controlcan extend operating life. Accumulated operation time and coolingfan run time are recorded and can be displayed for preventivemaintenance programs.Start-up and configuration are simplified by the intuitiveprogramming menu and start-up procedure.DriveWizard Industrial is a PC-based support tool for drivecommissioning and maintenance. It provides a way to operatethe drive, change parameters, upload and download parameters,monitor and graph parameters, provide status and troubleshootingdata, and utilize a host of additional features with built-in helpmenus.

Yaskawa VFD Drives Product Overview

Yaskawa VFD DrivesThe Yaskawa A1000 is a multi-purpose VFD drive deliveringup to 1000 horsepower, and provides Yaskawas highest levelof vector performance including precise controlof both induction and permanent magnet motors.The Yaskawa A1000 VFD drive is a full featured drive, providing outstanding quality,performance, flexibility, and environmental friendliness through 1000HP.Enjoy network communications, feedback, and expandable I/O to controlanything from simple fans and pumps to complex machines. For newinstallations or retrofits, the Yaskawa A1000 VFD drive provides a single robust solution,regardless of the application.

The Yaskawa G7 VFD drive is the ultimate performancesolution with increased speed and torque response to provide servo-likeperformance from an induction motor. The Yaskawa G7 VFD drive has theworlds first 480V 3-level inverter architecture that eliminates orminimizes the installation problems associated with IGBT switching andprotects the entire motor-drive system. The Yaskawa G7 VFD drive performance makes it the ideal drive for high performancespeed, torque, or position control applications. Several control modesare provided in the G7. In open loop vector mode, the latest flux observeralgorithms extend speed range and provide maximum starting torque.In closed loop vector mode, 0.01% speed regulation and 1000:1 controlrange can be achieved. Zero-servo capability provides position controlat zero speed.

The Yaskawa P1000 VFD drive is the next generation in Industrial Fan and Pump control,designed for those applications that are variable torque. Simplicity,intuitiveness, and user friendliness were the key factors in the Yaskawa P1000 VFD drive design. The Yaskawa P1000 VFD drive includes a powerful set of pre programmedfan/pump application macros allowing for quick and easycommissioning. With its advanced motor control algorithm alongwith the next generation IGBT technology, motor noise and drivepackaging is reduced. The P1000 supports a wide range of network andcontrol options providing for the most cost effective solution.

The Yaskawa J1000 VFD drive is a general purpose AC drive; its PWM designprovides low motor noise and high starting torque, with a heavy dutycurrent overload rating of 150% for 60 seconds and a normal dutycurrent overload rating of 120% for 60 seconds. Volts per hertz control makesthe Yaskawa J1000 VFD drive suitable for most general applications. The J1000 is feature packed,low cost and compact. The digital operator includes a 5-digitLED status display. TheYaskawaJ1000 VFD drive has five multi-function digital inputs,one multi-function analog input, one multi-function digital output,and one multi-function analog output. An optional RS-422/485Modbus RTU serial communication port is available. An ideal choicewhenever low cost and small size are required.

The Yaskawa V1000 VFD drive is a high performance line of AC micro drives withlow motor noise and high starting torque. It provides two controlmethods; Volts per hertz,and open loop current vector control for precise speedregulation and higher torque at lower speeds. The Yaskawa V1000 VFD driveis intendedfor either heavy duty applications or normal duty applications. The Yaskawa V1000 VFD drive is the perfect choice wherever highperformance in a small size is required.
