About this Manual
This manual describes the frequency inverters of the DF5 series.
This manual contains special information which is required for
engineering, installation and operation of the DF5 series frequency
inverters. The features, parameters and functions are described in
detail and illustrated by the use of examples for the most impor-
tant applications. All the details stated relate to the hardware and
software versions specified.
Abbreviations and symbols
Abbreviations and symbols with the following meanings are
described in this manual:
All measurements are in millimeters unless otherwise stated.
In some of the illustrations, the enclosure of the frequency inverter
as well as other safety relevant parts may be omitted for the
purpose of improved visualization. However, the frequency
inverter must always be operated in the enclosure with all neces-
sary safety relevant parts and components.
Read the manual carefully before you install and operate the
frequency inverter. We assume that you have a good knowledge
of engineering fundamentals and that you are familiar with the
electrical systems and the principles which apply, and are able to
read, understand and apply information contained in technical
drawings.
