Introduction
Thank you for your purchase of Drivecon Corporation's VF61 series inverter.
Please read through this instruction manual carefully prior to using it and get familiar with proper
installation, wiring and operations to ensure optimum and trouble-free operation.
This instruction manual describes the basic and standard operation procedures. See the catalog for
the specifications, capacity, outer dimensions, environmental conditions and so forth.
The VF61 series is to be used for a custom designed product or system, use the values written in the
drawings or test report of them, not the values shown in this manual.
Precautions for Safe Operation
1. Supply the specified voltage to the input terminals of the inverter. (If 400V power supplied to
the 200V type inverter, the inverter will be broken.)
2. Provide the input side of the inverter with an MCB of the proper capacity.
3. Be sure to connect the inverter to the ground to prevent accidents.
4. Do not connect the supply line to the output of the inverter. Otherwise, the inverter will be
broken.
5. Do not connect a phase advancing capacitor to the output terminals of the inverter.
Otherwise, the inverter will be broken.
6. Before maintenance work or inspection, turn the inverter power off to avoid electric shock.
Wait until the "CHG" LED goes out. Note that the heatsink may be hot in some operating
conditions.
7. Do not change the parts or make reckless alterations.
8. The inverter has no noise suppression device. Please contact us if such a device is necessary.
Memory protection
We recommend that set data be protected against rewriting in order to prevent misuse of the console.
