VG5 Installation & Quick-Start Manual 3
PRECAUTIONS
1) Read this manual in its entirety before installing or operating the VG5 inverter.
2) Do not connect or disconnect wiring, or perform signal checks while the power supply is turned
ON.
3) The VG5 internal capacitor is still charged even after the power supply is turned OFF. To
prevent electrical shock, disconnect all power before servicing the inverter. Then wait at least one
minute after the power supply is disconnected and all LED’s are extinguished.
4) Do not perform a withstand voltage test or a megger test on any part of the VG5. This elec-
tronic equipment uses semiconductors and is vulnerable to high voltage.
5) Do not remove the operator unless the power supply is turned OFF. Never touch the printed con-
trol board while the power supply is turned ON.
6) The VG5 is suitable for use on a circuit capable of delivering not more than 65,000 RMS
symmetrical amperes, 600 Volts maximum (575V class units), 480 Volts maximum (460V class
units), and 240 Volts maximum (230V class units).
Failure to observe these and other precautions highlighted in this manual will expose the user to high
voltages, resulting in equipment damage, serious injury or death.

VG5 Installation & Quick-Start Manual 7
1.1 INTRODUCTION
The VG5, a series of high quality, general-purpose inverters with flux vector control, directly
controls the current (or torque) in an AC induction motor. With an initial power range of 0.5 to 500
HP, it is suited for any application, and provides smooth start-up at low speeds, and extremely precise
operation. It’s proprietary auto-tuning function enables high-performance tuning of motors manufac-
tured worldwide.
The VG5 combines four control methods into one compact drive, including flux vector and con-
ventional V/f control. From precision machinery to multiple motor drives, the VG5 proves to be
the Ultimate drive for any application. This functionality includes proprietary features like
Adaptive Vector Control (AVC™), full-range automatic torque boost, auto-tuning, UL-recognized
electronic thermal motor overload, energy savings operation, PID control, low-noise operation and
various other features. It also features a 2-line × 16-character, alphanumeric digital operator for simple
programming in seven different languages. Utilizing the latest microprocessor technology, members of
the design team have collaborated to make the VG5 the Ultimate drive for any application.
This manual details installation, quick-start and diagnostic procedures for the VG5 series adjust-
able frequency drive controller. For more detailed descriptions of programming procedures, contact
your Saftronics representative.

1.4 PRELIMINARY INSPECTION
Receiving
After unpacking the VG5:
· Verify that the part numbers on the drive nameplate match the numbers on your purchase order or
packing slip.
· Check the unit for physical damage which may have occurred during shipping. If any part of the
drive is missing or damaged, notify the carrier and your Saftronics representative immediately.
· Verify that all internal hardware (i.e. components, screws, etc.) is seated properly and fastened
securely.
· Verify that the instruction manual is included (YEA-TOA-S616-10.12).
· If the drive will be stored after receiving, place it in its original packaging and store according to
temperature specifications on page 11.

1.5 MOUNTING
PRECAUTIONS
1) When preparing to mount the VG5, lift it by its base. Never lift it by the front cover.
2) Mount the inverter onto nonflammable material.
3) The VG5 generates heat. For the most effective cooling possible, mount it vertically. For
more details, refer to “Dimensions/Heat Loss” on pages 15-18 and “Clearances” on page 19. For
mounting configurations other than normal vertical mounting, please consult the factory.
4) When mounting units in an enclosure, install a fan or other cooling device to keep the intake air
temperature below 113°F (45°C).
Failure to observe these precautions may result in equipment damage.
Choosing a Location
Be sure that the inverter is mounted in a location protected against the following conditions:

Clearances
When mounting the VG5, allow sufficient clearances for effective cooling as shown below:
Notes:
1) The required clearances at the top, bottom, and both sides of the inverter are the same for both open chassis and NEMA 1
enclosures.
2) For inverter models 25HP and less (230V & 460V), and models 20HP and less (575V), remove the top and bottom covers
to convert NEMA 1 units to open chassis.
3) Allowable intake air temperature:
Open chassis: 14°F to 113°F (-10°C to +45°C)
NEMA 1: 14°F to 104°F (-10°C to 40°C)
4) When mounting units in an enclosure, install a fan or other cooling device to limit the air temperature within the inverter
to below 113°F (45°C).

1.6 WIRING
PRECAUTIONS
1) Do not connect or disconnect wiring, or perform signal checks while the power supply is turned
ON.
2) Connect the power supply wiring to terminals L1, L2 and L3 on the main circuit input section. DO
NOT connect the power supply wiring to output terminals T1, T2 and T3.
3) Connect the motor wiring to terminals T1, T2 and T3 on the main circuit output section.
4) Never touch the output circuit directly or place the output line in contact with the inverter enclo-
sure.
5) Do not connect a phase-advancing capacitor or an LC/RC noise filter to the output circuit.
6) The motor wiring must be less than 328ft (100m) in length, and it is strongly recommended that it
be in a separate conduit from all other wiring.
7) Control wiring must be less than 164ft (50m) in length and in a separate conduit from the power
wiring.
8) Tighten the screws on the main circuit and control circuit terminals.
9) Low voltage wires shall be wired with Class 1 wiring.
10) Please observe national electrical code (NEC) when wiring electrical devices.
Failure to observe these precautions may result in equipment damage.
Inspection
After wiring is complete, verify that:
All wiring is correctly installed.
Excess screws and wire clippings are removed from inside of the unit.
Screws are securely tightened.
Exposed wire has no contact with other wiring or terminals.
