1. Introduction
Emotron VFX is intended for controlling the speed and
torque of standard three phase asynchronous electrical
motors. The AC drive (Frequency converter) is equipped
with direct torque control which uses built-in digital signal
processor - DSP, giving the AC drive the capability of high
dynamic performance even at very low speeds without using
feedback signals from the motor. Therefore the inverter is
designed for use in high dynamic applications where low
speed high torque and high-speed accuracy are demanded.
In “simpler” application such as fans or pumps, the VFX
direct torque control offers other great advantages such as
insensitivity to mains disturbances or load shocks. Several
options are available, listed in chapter 13. page 201, that
enable you to customize the AC drive for your specific
needs.
Users
This instruction manual is intended for:
• installation engineers
• maintenance engineers
• service engineers
Motors
The AC drive is suitable for use with standard 3-phase
asynchronous motors. Under certain conditions it is possible
to use other types of motors. Contact your supplier for
details.
1.1 Delivery and unpacking
Check for any visible signs of damage. Inform your supplier
immediately of any damage found. Do not install the AC
drive if damage is found.
Check that all items are present and that the type number is
correct.
1.2 Using of the instruction
manual
Within this instruction manual the abbreviation “AC drive”
is used to indicate the complete variable speed drive as a
single unit.
Check that the software version number on the first page of
this manual matches the software version in the AC drive.
See section 11.9.1 page 189.
With help of the index and the table of contents it is easy to
track individual functions and to find out how to use and set
them.
The Quick Setup Card can be put in a cabinet door, so that
it is always easy to access in case of an emergency.
