TOSHIBA VF-S11 Totally-Enclosed Box Type Inverter

Thank you for purchasing a Toshiba “Totally-enclosed box type TOSVERT VF-S11 series inverter.” This Manual gives a supplementary explanation of some items referred to in the instruction manual E6581158 included with the product. Please read this manual carefully along with the instruction manual E6581158.

• 1-phase 240V class 0.2 to 2.2kW
• 3-phase 240V class 0.4 to 4.0kW
• 3-phase 500V class 0.75 to 4.0kW

To set makers
Please see to it that this manual is supplied to the inverter’s end user, along with the instruction manual E6581158.

Safety precautions

Before reading this manual, please read the following instructions in addition to “I. Safety Precautions,” of the instruction manual E6581158.

General Operation

Danger

Mandatory

• Circuit boards are exposed when the front cover is removed. So do not detach the front cover when the inverter is energized or within 10 minutes after power is turned off. Doing so could result in an electric shock.

Transportation

Warning

• Mandatory
  When handling the inverter unit, hold it on both sides firmly. If you hold it by the fins at the upper and lower parts, you could get injured.

Exterior Features

parameters, a 7-segment LED, and a CHARGE lamp. (The inverter does not have a RUN key, a STOP key, and potentiometer control, which are provided for VF-S11 standard series inverters.)
(2)| Manual power ON-OFF switch| Used to turn on and off the power manually. Note 1:
(3)| Slots (x 2) reserved for optional devices| Slots for optional contact input switches.  Note 2:
(4)| Operation ON-OFF rotary switch| Used to start and stop the inverter.
(5)| Potentiometer for frequency setting| Used to set the operating frequency of the inverter.
(6)| Wiring port plate| Steel plate with wiring portsThe effects of noise can be reduced to some degree by fixing shielded parts of cables with

cable grounds or similar devices. See page 7.

(7)| Nameplate| The label on which the ratings of the inverter unit is printed.

• Note 1: The switch has the function of tripping (overcurrent tripping). If the switch is in the Trip position, inspect the inverter before turning back on the power switch, because the inverter itself may be faulty.
• Note 2: Recommended contact input switches: Harmony series (XB5 series)

Main circuit and control circuit terminal boards

How to remove the front cover

1. Shut off the supply of electricity from the main power supply, and turn the manual power ON-OFF switch to the OFF position.
2. Ten minutes or more after turning off the power, check to be sure that the CHARGE lamp is not lit.
3. Remove the 6 screws (indicated by the arrows in the figure) around the front cover. ( 4 screws for single/three-phase 240V-0.75kW models and smaller)
4. Pull the front cover slowly toward you to remove it and detach the control signal cable connector.

How to attach the front cover

1. Attach the control signal cable connector.
2. Attach the front cover.
3. Set and tighten the 6 screws (indicated by the arrows in the figure) around the front cover.( 4 screws for single/three-phase 240V-0.75kW models and smaller)

Caution: Attach the front cover securely.

• Or else it does not serve as a protector compliant with IP54.
• On top of that, it may become impossible to operate the keys on the operation panel.

About the built-in cooling fa
The inverter has a built-in cooling fan. The cooling fan has a useful life of approximately 30,000 hours (2 to 3 years when operated continuously), so it needs to be replaced periodically. (Single/three-phase 240V-0.75kW models and smaller are not equipped with cooling fans.) If the cooling fan does not operate normally, the temperatures of the internal electrical components will rise high, and as a result their lives will be shortened. So inspect it periodically.

About the useful life of the manual power ON-OFF switch
The manual power ON-OFF switch has a useful life of approximately 5 years (if operated 12 hours per day at an average yearly ambient temperature of 30°C), so it needs to be replaced periodically.

Cautions

• Circuit boards are exposed when the front cover is removed. Since high voltages are applied to some parts of the circuit board, read Section 2.1, “Cautions on wiring,” of the instruction manual E6581158 carefully before wiring.
  When connecting cables, take care not to damage the circuit board with a screwdriver or a similar tool.

• To connect the power cable (to the manual power ON-OFF switch), torque the terminal screw to 1.7N·m (recommended). (M4 screw)

• Never turn on the power ON-OFF switch before attaching the front cover. Or you could get a shock.

The main circuit terminal board (input power cable) has terminals of a cable pinch type. Before connecting a cable, strip off its sheath to a length of 10mm or so. Torque: 1.7N·m.

Note: The colors indicated in the above figure refer to the colors of the cables.

Installation environment

• Operate in areas where the ambient temperature ranges from -10°C t + 40°C.
• Install the inverter in a well-ventilated place and mount it on a flat metal plate in portrait orientation. Install the inverter so that it is not inclined more than ±10° from the vertical.
• Leave a space of 10cm or more on the upper and lower sides of the inverter, and a space of 5cm or more on each side.
• The inverter has a built-in cooling fan. The cooling fan has a useful life of approximately 30,000 hours (2 to 3 years when operated continuously), so it needs to be replaced periodically. The inverter has a built-in cooling fan. (Single/three-phase 240V-0.75kW models and smaller are not equipped with cooling fans.)

If the cooling fan does not operate normally, the temperatures of the internal electrical components will rise high, and as a result their lives will be shortened. So inspect it periodically.

• Note 1: Capacity is calculated at 220V for the 240V models and at 440V for the 500V models.

• Note 2: Indicates rated output current setting when the PWM carrier frequency (parameter F300) is 4kHz or less.
  The values between parentheses refer to output currents at PWM carrier frequencies of over 4kHz. They need to be reduced further at frequencies over 12kHz (If a motor cable over 30m in length is used, it is necessary to reduce them more. This means that the lives of the internal components will be shortened). When the input power voltage of the 500V class model exceeds 480V, it is necessary to further reduce the setting. The default setting of the PWM carrier frequency is 12kHz.

• Note 3: The maximum output voltage is equal to the input supply voltage.

• Note 4: ±10% when the inverter is operated continuously (under a load of 100%).

• Note 5: IP54-compliant structures refer to structures that protect the contents from dust and the harmful effects of water that drops from every direction.
  The inverter can be brought into compliance with IP55 specifications by making the wiring port watertight.(IP55-compliant structures refer to structures that protect the contents from dust and harmful effects of water that comes in a jet from every direction.) To bring the inverter into compliance with IP-55, use PG screw-type cable grounds. Among the cable grounds available are skin- top grounds manufactured by LAPP (Germany).
  When using this type of grounds, use them in combination with the lock nuts specified below.Cable port| Cable ground| Cable ground(EMC-compliant)| Lock nut
  ---|---|---|---
  j19 hole| MS11| MS-SC11| SM-11
  j21 hole| MS13.5| MS-SC13.5| SM-13.5
  j23 hole| MS16| MS-SC16| SM16

• Note 6: For control specifications, parameters and functions, refer to the instruction manual E6581158.

• Note 7: The factory default settings of the following parameters are different from those of the VFS-11 standard type.
  Title| Function| Standard VF-S11| Totally enclosed type VF-S11

  cmod| Command mode selection| 1| 0
  fmod| Frequency setting mode selection| 0| 2

• Note 8: The inverter has a built-in cooling fan. The cooling fan has a useful life of approximately 30,000 hours (2 to 3 years when operated continuously), so it needs to be replaced periodically. (Single/three-phase 240V-0.75kW models and smaller are not equipped with cooling fans.)
  If the cooling fan does not operate normally, the temperatures of the internal electrical components will rise high, and as a result their lives will be shortened. So inspect it periodically.

• Note 9: The manual power ON-OFF switch has a useful life of approximately 5 years (if operated 12 hours per day at an average yearly ambient temperature of 30°C), so it needs to be replaced periodically.
