Original Instructions
For the purposes of compliance with the EU Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC:
General information
The manufacturer accepts no liability for any consequences resulting from inappropriate, negligent or incorrect installation or
adjustment of the optional operating parameters of the equipment or from mismatching the variable speed drive with the motor.
The contents of this guide are believed to be correct at the time of printing. In the interests of a commitment to a policy of continuous
development and improvement, the manufacturer reserves the right to change the specification of the product or its performance, or
the contents of the guide, without notice.
All rights reserved. No parts of this guide may be reproduced or transmitted in any form or by any means, electrical or mechanical
including photocopying, recording or by an information storage or retrieval system, without permission in writing from the publisher.
Drive firmware version
This product is supplied with the latest firmware version. If this drive is to be connected to an existing system or machine, all drive
firmware versions should be verified to confirm the same functionality as drives of the same model already present. This may also
apply to drives returned from an Emerson Industrial Automation Service Centre or Repair Centre. If there is any doubt please contact
the supplier of the product.
The firmware version of the drive can be checked by looking at Pr 11.029.
Environmental statement
Emerson Industrial Automation is committed to minimising the environmental impacts of its manufacturing operations and of its
products throughout their life cycle. To this end, we operate an Environmental Management System (EMS) which is certified to the
International Standard ISO 14001. Further information on the EMS, our Environmental Policy and other relevant information is
available on request, or can be found at
http://www.emersonindustrial.com/en-EN/controltechniques/aboutus/environment/Pages/environment.aspx
The electronic variable-speed drives manufactured by Emerson Industrial Automation have the potential to save energy and (through
increased machine/process efficiency) reduce raw material consumption and scrap throughout their long working lifetime. In typical
applications, these positive environmental effects far outweigh the negative impacts of product manufacture and end-of-life disposal.
Nevertheless, when the products eventually reach the end of their useful life, they must not be discarded but should instead be
recycled by a specialist recycler of electronic equipment. Recyclers will find the products easy to dismantle into their major component
parts for efficient recycling. Many parts snap together and can be separated without the use of tools, while other parts are secured
with conventional fasteners. Virtually all parts of the product are suitable for recycling.
Product packaging is of good quality and can be re-used. Large products are packed in wooden crates, while smaller products come
in strong cardboard cartons which themselves have a high recycled fibre content. If not re-used, these containers can be recycled.
Polythene, used on the protective film and bags for wrapping product, can be recycled in the same way. Emerson Industrial
Automations' packaging strategy prefers easily-recyclable materials of low environmental impact, and regular reviews identify
opportunities for improvement.
When preparing to recycle or dispose of any product or packaging, please observe local legislation and best practice.
REACH legislation
EC Regulation 1907/2006 on the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and restriction of Chemicals (REACH) requires the supplier
of an article to inform the recipient if it contains more than a specified proportion of any substance which is considered by the European
Chemicals Agency (ECHA) to be a Substance of Very High Concern (SVHC) and is therefore listed by them as a candidate for
compulsory authorisation.
For current information on how this requirement applies in relation to specific Emerson Industrial Automations' products, please
approach your usual contact in the first instance. Emerson Industrial Automations' position statement can be viewed at:

Issue Number: 2
1 Safety information
1.1 Warnings, Cautions and Notes
A Note contains information which helps to ensure correct operation of
the product.
1.2 Electrical safety - general warning
The voltages used in the drive can cause severe electrical shock and/or
burns, and could be lethal. Extreme care is necessary at all times when
working with or adjacent to the drive.
Specific warnings are given at the relevant places in this User Guide.
1.3 System design and safety of
personnel
The drive is intended as a component for professional incorporation into
complete equipment or a system. If installed incorrectly, the drive may
present a safety hazard.
The drive uses high voltages and currents, carries a high level of stored
electrical energy, and is used to control equipment which can cause
injury.
Close attention is required to the electrical installation and the system
design to avoid hazards either in normal operation or in the event of
equipment malfunction. System design, installation, commissioning/
start-up and maintenance must be carried out by personnel who have
the necessary training and experience. They must read this safety
information and this User Guide carefully.
The STOP and Safe Torque Off functions of the drive do not isolate
dangerous voltages from the output of the drive or from any external
option unit. The supply must be disconnected by an approved electrical
isolation device before gaining access to the electrical connections.
With the sole exception of the Safe Torque Off function, none of the
drive functions must be used to ensure safety of personnel, i.e.
they must not be used for safety-related functions.
Careful consideration must be given to the functions of the drive which
might result in a hazard, either through their intended behavior or
through incorrect operation due to a fault. In any application where a
malfunction of the drive or its control system could lead to or allow
damage, loss or injury, a risk analysis must be carried out, and where
necessary, further measures taken to reduce the risk - for example, an
over-speed protection device in case of failure of the speed control, or a
fail-safe mechanical brake in case of loss of motor braking.
The Safe Torque Off function may be used in a safety-related
application. The system designer is responsible for ensuring that the
complete system is safe and designed correctly according to the
relevant safety standards.
1.4 Environmental limits
Instructions in this User Guide regarding transport, storage, installation
and use of the drive must be complied with, including the specified
environmental limits. Drives must not be subjected to excessive physical
force.
1.5 Access
Drive access must be restricted to authorized personnel only. Safety
regulations which apply at the place of use must be complied with.
1.6 Fire protection
The drive enclosure is not classified as a fire enclosure. A separate fire
enclosure must be provided. For further information, refer to section
3.2.5 Fire protection on page 22.
1.7 Compliance with regulations
The installer is responsible for complying with all relevant regulations,
such as national wiring regulations, accident prevention regulations and
electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) regulations. Particular attention
must be given to the cross-sectional areas of conductors, the selection
of fuses or other protection, and protective ground (earth) connections.
This User Guide contains instruction for achieving compliance with
specific EMC standards.
Within the European Union, all machinery in which this product is used
must comply with the following directives:
2006/42/EC Safety of machinery.
2004/108/EC: Electromagnetic Compatibility.
1.8 Motor
Ensure the motor is installed in accordance with the manufacturer’s
recommendations. Ensure the motor shaft is not exposed.
Standard squirrel cage induction motors are designed for single speed
operation. If it is intended to use the capability of the drive to run a motor
at speeds above its designed maximum, it is strongly recommended that
the manufacturer is consulted first.
Low speeds may cause the motor to overheat because the cooling fan
becomes less effective. The motor should be installed with a protection
thermistor. If necessary, an electric forced vent fan should be used.
The values of the motor parameters set in the drive affect the protection
of the motor. The default values in the drive should not be relied upon.
It is essential that the correct value is entered in Pr 00.046 motor rated
current. This affects the thermal protection of the motor.
1.9 Adjusting parameters
Some parameters have a profound effect on the operation of the drive.
They must not be altered without careful consideration of the impact on
the controlled system. Measures must be taken to prevent unwanted
changes due to error or tampering.
A Warning contains information which is essential for
avoiding a safety hazard.
A Caution contains information which is necessary for
avoiding a risk of damage to the product or other equipment.

2.3 Ratings
The continuous current ratings given are for maximum 40 °C (104 °F), 1000 m altitude and 3.0 kHz switching frequency. Derating is required for
higher switching frequencies, ambient temperature >40 °C (104 °F) and high altitude. For further information, refer to Chapter 12 Technical data on
page 232.
Table 2-1 200 V drive ratings (200 V to 240 V ±10 %)
Normal Duty
The F300 is optimized for applications which use Self ventilated (TENV/TEFC) induction motors and require a low overload capability, and full
torque at low speeds is not required (e.g. fans, pumps).
Self ventilated (TENV/TEFC) induction motors require increased protection against overload due to the reduced cooling effect of the fan at low
speed. To provide the correct level of protection the I2t software operates at a level which is speed dependent. This is illustrated in the graph below.
The speed at which the low speed protection takes effect can be changed by the setting of Low Speed Thermal Protection Mode (04.025). The
protection starts when the motor speed is below 15 % of base speed when Pr 04.025 = 0 (default) and below 50 % when
Pr 04.025 = 1.
Operation of motor I2t protection
Motor I2t protection is fixed as shown below and is compatible with:

Issue Number: 2
2.3.1 Typical short term overload limits
The maximum percentage overload limit changes depending on the selected motor. Variations in motor rated current, motor power factor and motor
leakage inductance all result in changes in the maximum possible overload. The exact value for a specific motor can be calculated using the
equations detailed in Menu 4 in the Parameter Reference Guide.
Typical values are shown in the table below for RFC (RFC-A or RFC-S) and open loop (OL) modes:
Table 2-5 Typical overload limits
Generally the drive rated current is higher than the matching motor rated current allowing a higher level of overload than the default setting. The time
allowed in the overload region is proportionally reduced at very low output frequency on some drive ratings.
The maximum overload level which can be attained is independent of the speed.
2.4 Operating modes
The drive is designed to operate in any of the following modes:
Open loop mode
Open loop vector mode
Fixed V/F mode (V/Hz)
Quadratic V/F mode (V/Hz)
RFC - A
Without position feedback sensor (Sensorless)
RFC - S
Without position feedback sensor (Sensorless)
2.4.1 Open loop mode
The drive applies power to the motor at frequencies varied by the user. The motor speed is a result of the output frequency of the drive and slip due
to the mechanical load. The drive can improve the speed control of the motor by applying slip compensation. The performance at low speed depends
on whether V/F mode or open loop vector mode is selected.
Open loop vector mode
The voltage applied to the motor is directly proportional to the frequency except at low speed where the drive uses motor parameters to apply the
correct voltage to keep the flux constant under varying load conditions.
Typically 100 % torque is available down to 1 Hz for a 50 Hz motor.
Fixed V/F mode
The voltage applied to the motor is directly proportional to the frequency except at low speed where a voltage boost is provided which is set by the
user. This mode can be used for multi-motor applications.
Typically 100 % torque is available down to 4 Hz for a 50 Hz motor.
Quadratic V/F mode
The voltage applied to the motor is directly proportional to the square of the frequency except at low speed where a voltage boost is provided which is
set by the user. This mode can be used for running fan or pump applications with quadratic load characteristics or for multi-motor applications. This
mode is not suitable for applications requiring a high starting torque.
2.4.2 RFC-A mode
Rotor Flux Control for Asynchronous (induction) motors (RFC-A) encompasses closed loop vector control without a position feedback device.
Sensorless mode provides closed loop control without the need for position feedback by using current, voltages and key operating motor parameters
to estimate the motor speed. It can eliminate instability traditionally associated with open loop control such as operating large motors with light loads
at low frequencies.
2.4.3 RFC- S
Rotor Flux Control for Synchronous (permanent magnet brushless) motors (RFC-S) provides closed loop control without a position feedback device.
For use with permanent magnet brushless motors without a feedback device installed.
Flux control is not required because the motor is self excited by the permanent magnets which form part of the rotor.
Full torque is available all the way down to zero speed, with salient motors.
Operating mode RFC from cold RFC from 100 % Open loop from cold Open loop from 100 %
Overload with motor rated current = drive rated current 110 % for 165 s 110 % for 9 s 110 % for 165 s 110 % for 9 s
