 Transportation & installation
,Safety precautions
WARNING
Prohibited
• Do not install and operate the inverter if it is damaged or any of its components is missing.
This will result in electric shock or fire. Please call your Toshiba distributor for repairs.
• Do not place any inflammable object near the inverter.
If flame is emitted due to failure in the inverter, this will lead to fire.
• Do not operate the inverter with the front cover removed.
The unit contains high voltage parts and contact with them will result in electric shock.
Mandatory
action
• Operate under the environmental conditions prescribed in the instruction manual.
Operations under any other conditions will result in an accident or failure.
• Mount the inverter on a metal plate.
The rear panel will get high temperature. Do not mount the inverter on an inflammable object,
this will result in fire.
• An emergency stop device must be installed that is configured in accordance with the system
specifications.
If such an emergency stop device that can activate mechanical brake by shutting off power
supply is not installed, operation cannot be stopped immediately by the inverter alone, thus
resulting in an accident or injury.
• Close the front cover correctly, mount operation panel of the unit and close Ethernet connector
cover.
A gap can allow dust and water penetration and result in damage, fire or electric shock.
• All options to be used must be those specified by Toshiba.
The use of options other than those specified by Toshiba will result in an accident.
• In using a power distribution device and options for the inverter, they must be installed in a
cabinet.
When they are not installed in the cabinet, this will result in electric shock.

CAUTION
Prohibited
• For transporting or carrying the inverter, do not hold by the front cover.
The cover will come off and the unit will drop, resulting in injury.
• Do not install the inverter in any place with large vibration.
The unit will fall due to the vibration, resulting in injury.
• Do not connect an capacitor with DC input terminal [PA/+], [PC/-] (including DC link with
another inverter) without installing proper pre-charge circuit.
Excessive capacitor between DC terminals will cause the input overcurrent of inverter and will
result in product damage or failure.
Mandatory
action
• Carry the inverter by two people or more when the inverter is the model mass 20kg or more
(VFAS3-4110PCE - 4370PCE).
If you carry the inverter alone, this will result in injury.
• Transport a large-capacity inverter (VFAS3-4450PCE - 4750PCE) by a crane.
If you transport a heavy load by hand, this will result in injury.
Please take the utmost care for the operator's safety, and please handle the inverter carefully in
order not to damage the product.
For lifting the inverter, hang the inverter with wire ropes via hanging bolts (hanging holes)
provided at upper part or lower part of the inverter as shown below.
• Please make sure that the inverter is hanged by two wire ropes in a balanced manner, and please
be careful that the inverter does not receive excessive force during the hanging operation.
• Carry the inverter with the cover attached, and avoid holding or putting your hands in the wiring
holes during the transportation.
Otherwise you can have your hands pinched and injured.
• Transport the operation panel in accordance with law.
Please transport the operation panel by airplane or ship in accordance with law as a lithium
battery is used in the operation panel.
• Install the inverter at a place which can support the unit's mass.
If you install the inverter at a place which does not support the unit's mass, the unit will fall,
resulting in injury.
45° max.
