Yaskawa V1000 – Compact Vector Control Drive

The Yaskawa V1000 is a compact current vector drive with dual microprocessor logic. There are 3 primary models: 200V 3-Phase Input, 200V Single-Phase Input, and 400V 3-Phase Input.  It is possible to run the drive without connecting the digital I/O wiring.

It is important when installing Yaskawa V1000 drives that proper electrostatic discharge (ESD) procedures are taken. Failure to comply could result in an ESD discharge that could damage the drive circuitry. If the drive is being operated at low speeds, the cooling effects are diminished and motor temperatures can increase which can lead to overheating. Continuously operating an oil-lubricated motor in the low speed range may result in burning.

A dynamic braking resistor can be used with the V1000 series. Dynamic braking helps bring the motor to a smooth and rapid stop when it is working with loads of high inertia. As the drive lowers the frequency of a motor with high inertia connected, regeneration occurs. This can cause over-voltage when the regenerative energy flows back into the DC bus capacitors. A braking resistor can help prevent these overload errors from occurring.

The drive functions are devided into 2 primary groups that are accessible through the Yaskawa V1000’s digital LED operator. Drive mode allows for motor operation and parameter monitoring. Parameter settings cannot be changed when functions are accessed in drive mode. However, alarm information and history can be accessed in drive mode. Programming mode allows access to the setup. There you can adjust and verify drive parameters as well as Auto-Tuning. The drive will not allow motor operation changes such as start and stop when the LED is accessing a function Programming mode. The V1000 is set to Drive mode when it is first powered up. The Up and Down arrow keys can be used to switch displays.
