FRENIC-VP(F3)
Product information

Equipped with a range of applications for controlling fans and pumps.

Series Operation

Function to control multiple pumps with one inverter. Control by combining inverter-driven and commercial power-driven operation. The flow and pressure sensor signals are controlled by the PID controller built-in the inverter, and each pump is driven by commercial power or the inverter using switching signals from the inverter.
As a result, when the discharge flow rate is low, only inverter-driven operation is used, and when the discharge flow rate is high,commercial power-driven operation is used in addition to inverter-driven operation to ensure the necessary total discharge flow rate.

It consists of a combination of a inverter-driven motor (M0), commercial power-driven motors (M1 to M3), and an auxiliary motor (MA).
The inverter-driven motor is fixed to motor M0.
When the desired discharge flow rate is not achieved with only motor M0, control is performed by sequentially adding commercial power-driven motors.

It consists of a combination of motors(M1 to M2) that can switch betweeninverter-driven and commercialpower-driven operation,and anauxiliary motor (MA) that is driven bycommercial power. Variable speedcontrol using inverter-driven operationat startup.
If the desired discharge flowrate is not achieved with only the firstmotor, the operation of FLOATING-1 orFLOATING-2 can be selected.

<FLOATING-1>
・First motor: Switch to commercial drive
・Second motor: Operate using inverter drive
(Each additional motor replaces the inverter-driven motor in sequence)

<FLOATING-2>
・First motor: Continuous inverter drive
・Second motor: Commercial drive

Each inverter is connected via a communication link, eliminating the need for a controller when building systems.
In addition, the communication link reduces wiring without requiring any additional options.

PID Control (Equipped with 2 PID)

It’s equipped with two loops, one PID loop for motor control and another PID loop for external control.
Both the motor's PID and external actuators can be simultaneously controlled.

Prevention of filter clogging

It detects filter clogging due to dust, etc., based on output current and pressure sensor values, and removes the dust through reverse rotation.
In addition, an alarm is used to indicate that maintenance is required.

Fire Mode

In the event of a fire or other emergency, the inverter's protection function (output cutoff) will not stop, allowing continuous operation to prevent the building from filling with smoke and ensuring clear escape routes.

Continuous Operation Function

In the event of a momentary power failure, the motor speed gradually decreases with the load's inertia, allowing for continued operation and a smooth restart while maintaining motor activity.

Run-in Operation

When you use the inverter to drive a free-running fan, the fan can be smoothly started run-in operation, regardless of the original rotation direction.

By optimizing the control of flow rates, airflow, pressure, and temperature of fan and pump, it makes a significant contribution to energy savings.

Constant control of temperature and pressure differences

Reduces wasteful power consumption bylowering fan output when it is difficult to lowerinternal temperatures due to environmentalfactors such as the outdoor air temperaturebeing higher than that of the cooling water.
Temperature can be detected directly with theresistance temperature sensor by using an OPC-PT option card.

Note:

Thermistor must be prepared separately.

Automatic Energy-Saving Operation Function

Designed for the efficient operation of fan and pump induction motors.

Linearize

By measuring the pressure and flow information from the water supply source and feeding it back to the inverter, the system controls the motor speed. By maintaining the terminal pressure at an optimal level, the system reduces power consumption and enhances energy-saving performance.

Wiring and setup are simple, resulting in improved operational efficiency.
Additionally, it is equipped with safety functions, including preventive and predictive maintenance features.

Same mounting dimensions

The installation dimensions of the inverter body are fully compatible.

Note:

The product can be replaced or installed in place of the traditional F2 series.

Simple Wiring

The control terminal block adopts a quick-connect design, significantly improving wiring efficiency.

Easy Parameter Migration

Equipped with a compatibility mode, it allows direct writing of parameters read from the old model.

Enhanced PC loader functions

The product is equipped with a standard USB port (Mini-B), enabling direct communication between the inverter and a computer. Inverter Parameters can be read and written using only the bus power.

Enhancement of alarm history/traceback function

Able to save and display the last 10 alarm histories.
·The most recent 4 entries include detailed data such as output frequency and output current at the time of the alarm.
·The subsequent 6 entries display only the alarm code and occurrence date/time.

Note: The date and time data will only be recorded when the TP-A2SW is used and the clock is set.

Number of Saved Items

*The above numbers refer to the quantity of waveform files saved.

Life expectancy diagnosis and maintenance functions

The keypad and PC loader make it easy to check the status of equipment and detect problems before they occur, helping to reduce production equipment maintenance time and downtime.

Long life expectancy (main components)

Various lifetime-critical components inside the inverter have been designed with consideration for the maintenance cycles of the customer’s equipment.
