F7 Drive

F7 Drive - YAI

1/2 - 500 HP

The F7 drive was the Industrial Workhorse of adjustable frequency drives. It was intended to handle every conventional drive application found in the typical industrial manufacturing plant from simple variable torque pumping to sophisticated networked material handling.

The F7 / Configured package provided an F7 drive in a NEMA Type 12 or NEMA 12 FVFF enclosure, with space for factory-mounted and wired options, such as reactors, filters, circuit breakers, fuses, network communications and I/O cards, etc.

Question	Posted Date
When replacing the motor for the application and the heat sink cooling fans. How do I reset Cumulative Motor Operation Time U1-13 and Heat Sink Cooling Fan Operation Time U1-40? Posted Date: 09/16/2013 Answer: When a motor replacement is needed, Cumulative Motor Operation Time (U1-13) can be reset with setting parameter o2-07=000000. When replacing the heat sink cooling fans on the drives, Heat Sink Cooling Fan Operation Time (U1-40) can be reset with setting parameter o2-10=00000.

When reading 42h it does not match U1-03? Using Ethernet or Modbus protocols. Posted Date: 08/31/2012 Answer: When using 42h, please use the following formula: "Value of Read" divided by "8192" times "Drives Rated Output Current". You can also read 26h which does not require this formula.

When dealing with harmonic noise, which is better-- an AC or a DC reactor? Posted Date: 06/20/2013 Answer: Use an AC reactor when attaching a reactor to the power supply side, and a DC reactor when attaching to the series + and - bus terminals on the inverter. They are both equally effective. They can also be used in combination. Refer to the attached technical note from a manufacturer of AC chokes and DC reactors for a detailed explanation of solutions to harmonic noise in AC drives.

What will happen if there is only .5'' clearance from either top or bottom of the drive to an enclosure? Posted Date: 03/14/2006 Answer: There MUST be a minimum of 4.7'' clearance above and below the drive (varies by model) to allow airflow over the heat sink. Otherwise, an OH alarm (cooling fin overheat) may occur. Also, a minimum 1.2'' clearance (varies by model) is required on each side of the drive. Refer to the appropriate drives instruction manual for the mounting and clearance specifications.

What software tools are available to save F7 drive parameter settings to a PC file? Posted Date: 09/13/2012 Answer: Yaskawa offers a DriveWizard PC tool. The software is free of charge from the Yaskawa website. A Communication cable to connect between the PC and the drive is required. The cable part number is UWR00468-2. There is also a kit available which includes the software on a CD-ROM and a cable. That kit part number is DWST616-C2. The link below contains the software download for Drivewizard. Excerpt from the DriveWizard Download page The DriveWizard Inverter support tool is a Windows based program designed to make startup, commissioning and troubleshooting of Yaskawa Inverters as simple as possible. DriveWizard provides the user with a set of user-friendly tools for viewing and manipulating data to and from the inverter. With just a few quick mouse clicks data can be retrieved, changed, stored, and graphed. DriveWizard is compatible with the GPD 515/G5, E7(HVAC), F7, G7, P7, J7(GPD 305), and V7(GPD 315) products. Since one software tool can support all of these products, maintenance personnel can maintain machines and process utilizing our different families of inverters with ease.

What is the meaning of CAL or CALL on the keypad display?. Posted Date: 10/28/2005 Answer: Upon drive power up when the drives Run Command or the frequency reference are to be given from PLC thru serial communication - "CALL" will flash on the display for the VS F7/G7 - "CAL" will flash on the display for the VS mini V7/J7 This indicates the unit is awaiting the appropriate communications data. Once a node receives acceptable data from PLC, CALL or CAL will stop flashing. the drive is then ready to run.

What is the ambient temperature derating (L8-12 setting)? Posted Date: 01/22/2007 Answer: The output current capacity and the overload capabilities of the inverter depend on the ambient temperature. The higher the ambient temperature the lower is the maximum output current because the heat dissipation becomes more difficult. The overload protection function is active only when the current is above the maximum continuous output current level (112% of inverter rated current). At ambient temperatures higher than 45°C (40°C for IP20) this level will be lowered. The ambient temperature can be set in parameter L8-12. The setting range is 45°C to 60°C. Because the inverter has no IP00/20 detection the set value for L8-12 must be 5° higher than the real ambient temperature at IP20 units.

What does it mean when the drive has a RUN command and the STOP light is flashing on the drive display? Posted Date: 10/27/2005 Answer: If the 'Stop' LED is flashing and the 'Drive' light is on, the drive is receiving a run command, but has either no frequency or a zero (0) frequency reference.
