Influence to inverter at instantaneous power failure
When an instantaneous power failure occurs, the power supply voltage of the control circuit for the
inverter is shut off. To prevent malfunction of control due to this power failure, activate the
instantaneous power failure protection to stop the inverter output and keep the output stopped. The
protective operation differs depending on the instantaneous power failure time. The FR-A800 series
is used as an example here.
(1) Inverter operation depending on the instantaneous power failure time
(a) When the instantaneous power failure time
is within 15 ms
Since the protective function is not
activated, operation can continue normally.
