Value Description
1 2.5 kHz
2 5.0 kHz
3 7.5 kHz
4 10.0 kHz
7 2.5 kHz (12×): 12 times as high as output frequency (from 1.0 to 2.5 kHz)
8 2.5 kHz (24×): 24 times as high as output frequency (from 1.0 to 2.5 kHz)
9 2.5 kHz (36×): 36 times as high as output frequency (from 1.0 to 2.5 kHz)
• The default setting does not need any changes in normal operation.
• Change the default setting in the following cases.
The wiring distance between the Inverter and motor is long:
Set the Inverter to a lower carrier frequency.
Reference carrier frequency: Wiring distance ≤ 50 m: 10 kHz
50 m < Wiring distance ≤ 100 m: 5 kHz
Wiring distance > 100 m: 2.5 kHz
Note The carrier frequency changes as shown in the following graph with 7 through 9 set in n46.
