WARNING
Do not remove the cover while power is applied or the unit is in operation.
Otherwise, electric shock could occur.
Do not run the inverter with the front cover removed.

Otherwise, you may get an electric shock due to high voltage terminals or charged
capacitor exposure.
Do not remove the cover except for periodic inspections or wiring, even if the input
power is not applied.
Otherwise, you may access the charged circuits and get an electric shock.
2
Wiring and periodic inspections should be performed at least 10 minutes after
disconnecting the input power and after checking the DC link voltage is discharged
with a meter (below DC 30V).
Otherwise, you may get an electric shock.
Operate the switches with dry hands.

Do not use the cable when its insulating tube is damaged.

Do not subject the cables to scratches, excessive stress, heavy loads or pinching.
CAUTION
Install the inverter on a non-flammable surface. Do not place flammable material
nearby.

Install according to instructions specified in this manual.
Do not open the cover during delivery.
3
Do not place heavy items on the inverter.
Check the inverter mounting orientation is correct.
Do not drop the inverter, or subject it to impact.
Use the Type 3 grounding method for 220 V Class and special Type 3 for 440V class.
(Ground impedance: Below 100 ohm).
Take protective measures against ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) before touching the
PCB for inspection or installation.
Use the inverter under the following environmental conditions:
Ambient

Vibration or less
(2) Wiring
Do not connect a power factor correction capacitor, surge suppressor, or RFI filter to
the output of the inverter.
The connection orientation of the output cables U, V, W to the motor will affect the
direction of rotation of the motor.
Incorrect terminal wiring could result in the equipment damage.
Reversing the polarity (+/-) of the terminals could damage the inverter.
Only authorized personnel familiar with RICH ELECTRIC inverter should perform
wiring and inspections.
Always install the inverter before wiring. Otherwise, you may get an electric shock or
have bodily injury.
(3) Trial run
Check all parameters during operation. Changing parameter values might be required
depending on the load.
Always apply permissible range of voltage to the each terminal as indicated in this
manual. Otherwise, it could lead to inverter damage.
(4) Operation precautions
When the Auto restart function is selected, stay away from the equipment as a motor
will restart suddenly after an alarm stop.
The “Stop” key on the keypad is valid only when the appropriate function setting has
been made. Prepare an emergency stop switch separately.
4
If an alarm reset is made with the reference signal present, a sudden start will occur.
Check that the reference signal is turned off in advance. Otherwise an accident could
occur.
Do not modify or alter anything inside the inverter.
Motor might not be protected by electronic thermal function of inverter.
Do not use a magnetic contactor on the inverter input for frequent starting/stopping of
the inverter.
Use a noise filter to reduce the effect of electromagnetic interference. Otherwise
nearby electronic equipment may be affected.
In case of input voltage unbalance, install AC reactor. Power factor capacitors and
generators may become overheated and damaged due to potential high frequency noise
transmitted from inverter.
Use an insulation-rectified motor or take measures to suppress the micro surge voltage
when driving 440V class motor with inverter. A micro surge voltage attributable to
wiring constant is generated at motor terminals, and may deteriorate insulation and
damage motor.
Before operating unit and prior to user programming, reset user parameters to default
settings.
Inverter can easily be set to high-speed operations, verify capability of motor or
machinery prior to operating unit.
Stopping torque is not produced when using the DC-Break function. Install separate
equipment when stopping torque is needed.
(5) Fault prevention precautions
Provide a safety backup such as an emergency brake which will prevent the machine
and equipment from hazardous conditions if the inverter fails.
(6) Maintenance, inspection and parts replacement
Do not conduct a megger (insulation resistance) test on the control circuit of the
inverter.
Refer to Chapter 5 for periodic inspection (parts replacement).
(7) Disposal
Handle the inverter as an industrial waste when disposing of it.
(8) General instructions
Many of the diagrams and drawings in this instruction manual show the inverter
without a circuit breaker, a cover or partially open. Never run the inverter like this.
Always place the cover with circuit breakers and follow this instruction manual when
operating the inverter.

WARNING
Normal stray capacitance between the inverter chassis and the power devices inside the
inverter and AC line can provide a high impedance shock hazard. Do not apply power to
the inverter if the inverter frame is not grounded.
15
Precautions on Wiring
The internal circuits of the inverter will be damaged if the incoming power is connected and
applied to output terminals (U, V, W).
Use ring terminals with insulated caps when wiring the input power and motor wiring.
Do not leave wire fragments inside the inverter. Wire fragments can cause faults, breakdowns,
and malfunctions.
For input and output, use wires with sufficient size to ensure voltage drop of less than 2%.
Motor torque may drop if operating at low frequencies and a long wire run between inverter
and motor.
When more than one motor is connected to one inverter, total wiring length should be less
than 100m. Do not use a 3-wire cable for long distances. Due to increased leakage
capacitance between wires, over-current protective feature may operate or equipment
connected to the output side may malfunction.
Please reduce the constants of F080 CARRIER FREQUENCY to prevent the current leakage
when the wiring between the inverter and the motor is longer.
Connect only recommended braking resistor between the P and PR terminals. Never short P
and PR terminals. Shorting terminals may cause internal damage to inverter.
The main circuit of the inverter contains high frequency noise, and can hinder
communication equipment near the inverter. To reduce noise, install RFI filters or line noise
filters on the input side of the inverter.
Do not use power factor capacitor, surge suppressors, or RFI filters on the output side of the
inverter. Doing so may damage these components.
Always insure the CHARGE LED lamp for the power terminal are OFF before wiring
terminals. The charge capacitor may hold high-voltage even after the power is disconnected.
Use caution to prevent the possibility of personal injury.
Grounding
The inverter is a high switching device, and leakage current may flow. Ground the inverter to
avoid electrical shock. Use caution to prevent the possibility of personal injury.
Connect only to the dedicated ground terminal on the inverter. Do not use the enclosure or a
chassis screw for grounding.
Grounding wiring should be as thick as possible. Grounding wire should be as short as
possible and should be connected to the ground point as near as possible to the inverter.
The correct grounding is essential when using the inverter. 220V class: less than 100Ω.
440V class: less than 10Ω.
The grounding of the inverter should be separate from the grounding of welder.
Please refer to the below grounding method when there are multiple inverters used.
Connect with a phillips(plus)screw driver.

The specification of electric wires could be referred to the electrician regulation for the
safety.

Upon termination of the FWD (REV) run command, the motor decelerates at the decel rate
determined by the time set to deceleration time 1 and DC injection braking is applied
immediately before stop. DC injection braking is also applied when the motor decelerates by
setting frequency reference lower than min. output frequency with FWD (REV)run command
ON. If the decel time is short or the load inertia is large, overvoltage (OV) fault may occur at
deceleration. In this case, increase the decel time or install an optional braking resistor.

pattern; F002=1 vector pattern.
○ To be able to adjust motor output torque, please change the setting of V/F pattern ( F011~F017)
and full-range automatic torque boost (F103~F105).
Typical Setting of V/F Pattern

(1) Set the V/F pattern according to the application as described below.
(2) For 440V class, the voltage values (F012, F015 and F017) should be doubled.
(3) When running at a frequency exceeding 50Hz/60Hz, change the maximum output frequency
(F011).

Increasing voltage of V/F pattern increase motor torque, but an excessive increase may cause :
(1) motor overexcitation to damage inverter.
(2) motor overheat or vibration so slowly increasing voltage and monitoring on motor current is
suggested.
Full-range Automatic Torque Boost (When V/F Mode Is Selected F002=0)

Motor torque requirement changes according to load conditions. Full-range automatic torque boost
adjusts voltage of V/F pattern according to the requirement. EI-550 automatically adjusts the
voltage during constant-speed operation as well as acceleration. The required torque is calculated
by the inverter and this enasures triples operation and energy-saving effects.
Output voltage α Torque compensation gain (F103) × Required torque
Operation
V(Voltage)
Normally, no adjustment is necessary for torque compensation

gain (F103). When the wiring distance between the inverter Require torque=>Increase voltage
and the motor is long, or when the motorgenerates vibration,
change the automatic torque boost gain.
In these cases, set the V/F pattern (F011 to F017).
Adjustment of torque compensation time constant (F104) F(Frequency)
and torque compensation iron loss (F105) are normally not

required. However, when the motor generates vibration,
increase the setting of F104 and when response is low,
reduce the setting of 104.

PROTECT TIME
The electronic thermal overload function monitors motor temperature, based on inverter
output current and time, to protect the motor from overheating. When electronic thermal
overload relay is enabled, an “OL1” error occurs, shutting OFF the inverter output and
preventing excessive overheating in the motor. When operating with one inverter connected
to one motor, an external thermal relay is not needed. When operating several motors with
one inverter, install a thermal relay on each motor.
55
General-purpose Motor and Inverter Motor
Induction motors are classified as general-purpose motors or inverter motors, based on their
cooling capabilities. Therefore, the motor overload function operates differently between these
two motor types.

Full-Range Automatic Torque Boost (When V/F Mode Is Selected F002=0)

Motor torque requirement changes according to load conditions. Full-range automatic torque boost
adjusts voltage of V/F pattern according to the requirement. EI-550 automatically adjusts the
voltage during constant-speed operation as well as acceleration. The required torque is calculated
by the inverter and this enasures triples operation and energy-saving effects.

Since vector control needs motor constants, the standard motor constants have been set at
the factory prior to shipment. Therefore, when an inverter exclusive-use motor is used or
when a motor of any other manufacturer is driven the required torque characteristics or
speed control characteristics may not be maintained because the constants are not matched.
Set the following constants so that they can match the motor constants.

Set F106, F107, F039 and F110 according to the motor test report. To connect a reactor between
the inverter and the motor, set F108 to the value of F108 (motor leakage inductance) initial value
plus externally mounted reactor inductance. Unless a reactor is connected, F108 does not have to
be set according to the motor.
Adjustment of touque compensation gain (F103) compensation time constants (F104) is

normally not required. Adjust torque compensation time constant under the conditions:
z Increase the setting when the motor generates vibration.
z Reduce the setting when response is low.
To adjust for slip compensation gain (F111), induce load so speed reaches target value. Increase
or decrease the value
z When speed is less than target value, increase slip compensation gain.
z When speed is more than target value, reduce slip compensation gain.
Adjustment of slip compensation time constant (F112) is required. Adjust under the following
conditions:
z Reduce the setting when response is low.
z Increase the setting when speed is unstable.
○ V/F Pattern during Vector Control

Notes: 1. When selecting frequency reference from the control circuit terminal FR as the
target or feedback value, the switch of S1 on the control circuit board must be
selected depending on the input method (current or voltage input).
2. Never use the frequency reference from the control circuit terminal FR for both
the target and feedback values.
3. When using the analog signal(0 to 10V / 4 to 20mA) which inputs to the CN2
terminal of the digital operator RCU-550 as the target or feedback value of PID
control, never use it as a multi-analog input. Constant F077 should be set to 0.

○ MODBUS Communications
MODBUS is composed of a single MASTER (PLC) and SLAVES (1 to 32 EI-550 units).
Communication between MASTER and SLAVE (serial communication) is controlled
according to the MASTER program with the MASTER initiating communication and the
SLAVE responding.
The MASTER sends a signal to one SLAVE at a time. Each SLAVE has a preregistered
address No., and the MASTER specifies the number and conduct signal communications.
The SLAVE receives the communications to carry out designated functions and reply to the
MASTER.

Using Constant Copy Function

○ Constant Copy Function
The EI-550 standard digital operator RCU-550 can store constants for one inverter. A
backup power supply is not necessary since EEPROM is used.
Constant copy function is possible only for the inverters with same product series, ( it is
impossible to copy constants between EI-550 EI-500), same power supply
specifications (220V class or 440 class), same motor capacity and same control mode
(vector control or V/F control).
The prohibition of the digital operator RCU-550 reading of constants from the inverter
can be set at F177=0, factory setting. The constant data cannot be changed when this
constant is set.
Constant Copy Function Selection (F176)

Depending on the setting of F176 for constant copy function selection, the following
functions are available:
z Read all the constants from the inverter (READ) and store them in EEPROM in the
digital operator RCU-550.
z Copy the constants stored in the digital operator to the inverter (COPY).
z Verify that the constants in the digital operator and the constants in the inverter are
the same (VERIFY).
z Display the software number, the maximum applicable motor capacity and the voltage
class of the inverter that has the constants stored in the digital operator.

○ READ Function (READ)

Reads out the constants in batch from the inverter and stores them in EEPROM inside the
digital operator RCU-550. When the read-out is executed, the previously stored constants
data in the EEPROM are cleared and replaced with the newly entered constants.
1. F001=4; Enable the setting of F001 to F170 for reading and writing.
2. F177=1; Allow the read-out and write-in of digital operator.
3. F176= “Constants read-out”; store constants from the inverter in EEPROM inside the
digital operator.
4. F177=0; Prohibit digital operator read-out.
○ COPY Function (COPY)

Writes the constants stored inside the digital operator in batch to inverter. Write-in is
possible only for the inverters with same product series, power supply specifications and
control mode (V/F control or vector control).If it is different specification or different
control mode, the digital operator will display “CPE”.
When satisfying the above condition, “VAE” will appear when the capacity of inverters

CHAPTER 6 FAULT DIAGNOSIS
Protective and Diagnostic Functions

This section describes the alarm and fault displays, the fault conditions, and the corrective
ations to be taken if the EI-550 malfunctions.
Inverter alarms are classified into alarm display and fault display.
Alarm display: When a minor fault occurs in the inverter, the Digital Operator flashes the
display. In this case, the operation is continued, and restored automatically as
soon as the cause is removed. Multi-function output can output the minor
fault status to external devices.
Fault display: When a major fault occurs in the inverter, the protective functions operates,
and the Digital Operator lights the display and shuts off the output to stop the
inverter. The fault can be output as a fault output to the external devices by
multi-function output.
To reset the fault, use key of Digital Operator or cycle the power after taking the
second corrective action.
* Selecting “always ON” mode at fan operation selection (F039=1), the power must be
cycled to release the alarm display.
