CAUTION: Remarks for using ground fault interrupter breakers in the main power
supply: Adjustable frequency inverter with integrated CE-filters and shielded
(screened) motor cables have a higher leakage current toward earth GND.
Especially at the moment of switching ON this can cause an inadvertent trip of
ground fault interrupters. Because of the rectifier on the input side of the inverter
there is the possibility to stall the switch-off function through small amounts of DC
current.
Please observe the following:
xUse only short time-invariant and pulse current-sensitive ground fault
interrupters with higher trigger current.
xOther components should be secured with separate ground fault interrupters.
xGround fault interrupters in the power input wiring of an inverter are not an
absolute protection against electric shock.

General Warnings and Cautions iv
WARNING: Never modify the unit. Otherwise, there is a danger of electric shock and/or injury.
CAUTION: Withstand voltage test and insulation resistance tests (HIPOT) are executed before
the units are shipped, so there is no need to conduct these tests before operation.
CAUTION: Do not attach or remove wiring or connectors when power is applied. Also, do not
check signals during operation.
CAUTION: Be sure to connect the grounding terminal to earth ground.
CAUTION: When inspecting the unit, be sure to wait five minutes after turning OFF the power
supply before opening the cover.

CAUTION: Do not stop operation by switching OFF electromagnetic contactors on the primary or
secondary side of the inverter.
When there has been a sudden power failure while an operation instruction is active, then the
unit may restart operation automatically after the power failure has ended. If there is a
possibility that such an occurrence may harm humans, then install an electromagnetic contactor
(Mgo) on the power supply side, so that the circuit does not allow automatic restarting after the
power supply recovers. If the optional remote operator is used and the retry function has been
selected, this will also cause automatic restarting when a Run command is active. So, please be
careful.
CAUTION: Do not insert leading power factor capacitors or surge absorbers between the output
terminals of the inverter and motor.

CAUTION: EFFECTS OF POWER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM ON INVERTER
In the case below involving a general-purpose inverter, a large peak current can flow on the
power supply side, sometimes destroying the converter module:
1. The unbalance factor of the power supply is 3% or higher.
2. the power supply capacity is at least 10 times greater than the inverter capacity (or the
power supply capacity is 500kVA or more).
3. Abrupt power supply changes are expected, due to conditions such as:
a. Several inverters are interconnected with a short bus.
b. A thyristor converter and an inverter are interconnected with a short bus.
c. An installed phase advance capacitor opens and closes.
Where these conditions exist or when the connected equipment must be highly reliable, you
MUST install an input side AC-reactor of 3% (at a voltage drop at rated current) with respect to
the supply voltage on the power supply side. Also, where the effects of an indirect lightening
strike are possible, install a lightening conductor.
CAUTION: SUPPRESSION FOR NOISE INTERFERENCE FROM INVERTER
The inverter uses many semiconductor switching elements such as transistors and IGBTs. Thus,
a radio receiver or measuring instrument located near the inverter is susceptible to noise
interference.
To protect the instruments from erroneous operation due to noise interference, they should be
used well away from the inverter. It is also effective to shield the whole inverter structure.
The addition of an EMI filter on the input side of the inverter also reduces the effect of noise from
the commercial power line on external devices.
Note that the external dispersion of noise from the power line can be minimized by connecting an
EMI filter on the primary side of the inverter.
xSFEF model has integrated filter complies to EN61800-3 category C1.
xHFEF model has integrated filter complies to EN61800-3 category C2.
CAUTION: When the EEPROM error E08 occurs, be sure to confirm the setting values again.
CAUTION: When using normally closed active state settings (C011 to C015) for externally
commanded Forward or Reverse terminals [FW] or [RV], the inverter may start automatically
when the external system is powered OFF or disconnected from the inverter! So do not use
normally closed active state settings for Forward or Reverse terminals [FW] or [RV] unless your
system design protects against unintended motor operation.

Motor Overload Protection
Hitachi X200 inverters provide solid state motor overload protection, which depends on
the proper setting of the following parameters:
xB012 “electronic overload protection”
xB212 “electronic overload protection, 2nd motor”
Set the rated current [Amperes] of the motor(s) with the above parameters. The setting
range is 0.2 * rated current to 1.0 * rated current.
WARNING: When two or more motors are connected to the inverter, they cannot be
protected by the electronic overload protection. Install an external thermal relay on
each motor.
