Using Inverters for Elevating Machines
This section describes precautions to be observed when using the Varispeed F7 for elevating machines
such as elevators and cranes.
Brake ON/OFF Sequence
Brake ON/OFF Sequence
For the holding brake’s ON/OFF sequence, use the following Inverter output signals according to the set con-
trol method.
* 1. This example shows multi-function output terminals M1-M2 used for the holding brake ON/OFF signal.
Do not set H2-01 to 0 (During run).
* 2. This is the standard setting range for open-loop vector control. For V/f control, set to approximately the motor rated slip frequency +0.5 Hz.
If the set value is too low, the motor torque is insufficient and the load may slip when the brake is applied. Be sure to set L4-01 to a value larger than that
of E1-09 (Min. output frequency) and larger than that of L4-02 shown in Figure 6.80. If the set value is too large, the motor may not run smoothly when
it starts running.
* 3. The hysteresis in frequency detection 2 can be adjusted (from 0.1 to 0.5 Hz) by L4-02 (speed agree detection width). Change the setting to approxi-
mately 0.1 Hz if there are drops while stopping.
* 4. Applicable for F7-Series Inverters with software versions PRG:1032 or later.
* 5. When using frequency detection 2, set L4-01 before H2-01. If H2-01 is set before L4-01, the holding brake will engage while stopping. For Inverters
with software versions PRG: 1032 or later, use frequency detection 5 in which a holding brake signal is OFF when the Inverter is baseblocked.
