Chapter 1 BEFORE USE
Model variation that optimally satisfies customer needs
z
Rich model variation
1. Basic type
Suitable for the equipment that uses a peripheral device to noise or harmonics.
2. EMC filter built-in type
This type has a built-in EMC filter and is compliant with European EMC Directives.
Category C3 (2nd Env) IEC/EN61800-3:2004 compliant
* Use of EMC filter will increase the leakage current.
3. DC reactor built-in type
This type has a built-in DC reactor to suppress harmonics.
This is advantageous in terms of installation space when power factor is to be corrected or harmonic
components are to be suppressed.

Inverters supporting synchronous motors
1. Highly-efficient operation for energy saving
Driving a synchronous motor(s) with the FRENIC-MEGA equipped with our distinctive energy saving
control provides higher energy saving effect than conventional inverter operations of induction motors.
2. Compact, light-weight body for space saving
Using advanced, optimum magnetic field analysis technology, thermal analysis technology, and applied
analysis technology has attained more compact, light-weight body.
3. General-purpose inverter (supporting synchronous motors) providing high-performance, multi-function
operations
(1) Vector control without speed sensor, vector control with speed sensor
(2) Offline tuning
(3) Acceleration characteristics (vector control without speed sensor):
Before startup, the FRENIC-MEGA detects the position of
a magnetic pole for smooth, rapid acceleration.
(4) Impact load characteristics (vector control without speed sensor):
The FRENIC-MEGA maintains stable motor speed even
under 120% of impact load.
(5) Restart after momentary power failure: After a momentary power failure occurs, the
FRENIC-MEGA automatically searches for the idling motor
speed and starts the motor smoothly without stopping it.
4. Environmental considerations
The FRENIC-MEGA approximately doubles the bearing life of the motor driven (compared with our
conventional induction motors). The designed lives of the various consumable parts inside the
FRENIC-MEGA have been extended to 10 years, The FRENIC-MEGA is compliant with RoHS Directives
and realizes very low noise operation.
